"Huh... nice place. Lots of color." He said sarcasticly. Lucia moved on a bit slower, looking around and trying to find some place that could be used for cover.

Xelera sat down on the edge and then turned herself around, starting to climb down the rock face, she glanced up at Lucia "This is the only way down." she said, they won't follow us here...least I hope." she said, looking back to what she was doing.

Lucia followed behind her, slowly and carefully. THere wasn't much light... At least they didn't have searchlights...

Xelera grabbed a rock and it came loose, falling to the ground below them and causing Xelera to slip. She held on with her other hand for dear life, gritting her teeth as she tried not to fall.

Lucia grabbed her arm, making sure she didn't fall and slowly worked his way down. Eventually, they touched ground. "There we go..."

Xelera looked around once there were down, "I've never been down here before...so I have no idea what is here." she said, looking at Lucia.

"It's ok... We'll manage."

The land was cragy, and not much cover.

"Do you know if any kind of animal is out here?" he asked, glancing around in the moon covered area.

Xelera shook her head, "Though here is a rumor saying dark orcs live under ground here.." she said, frowning slightly. She hoped those rumors were false, orcs were a pain.

Lucia was quiet for a moment, looking at her.

".... Dorks? You have Dorks here?" Despite the situation, Lucia broke out in laughter.

She blinked at him, "I'm glad you find it funny, but just one dark orc is hard to take down, I'd rather not run into one." she frowned slightly, crossing her arms.

"Sorry sorry... inside joke. Let's just say someone owes me a lot of money."

Lucia looked around, and found himself acouple of large sticks. He closed his eyes, and his shadow covered them, turning it pitch black. When the shadow faded away, there was a majestic looking bow, made of ebony, in his hands.

"Here, what little magic you have you can focus into this, and it'll shoot. Just don't let it get hit to hard."

She nodded, taking the bow and looking amazed. "Wow thats amazing...thanks." she said looking it over, it was a good bow strong and angled just right.

"No problem."

Lucia picked up another stick, this one a bit longer than before, he channeled his energy into it, and it became a long and deadly looking scythe. With a twirl that could only be achieved by practice, he lay teh staff across his shoulders and looked ahead.

"Alright. Let's keep moving and find something to burn."

"Well will everything dead, it won't be hard to get it going." she said, glancing at him. She put the bow around her torso and started to walk further in, she'd be lying if she wasn't a little worried about what was out there.

For a while they walked, the craggy ground doing little to hamper their path, but didn't give much to look for. Finally, they found a small cluster of dead trees and stopped.

"I think we can at least stop here, and get a fire going. Can you take care of it? I'm gonna scout around for some food."

Xelera nodded, walking over to the dead trees and breaking off what she could. Once she had a fairly good sized pile she moved it to a more flatter area. It wasn't entirely flat but it didn't have jagged rocks poking up and out. She placed the wood in a pile, sitting in front of it. She closed her eyes and held out her hands, concentrating as she tried to conjure up a small fire spell.

The wood lit, and soon a small fire was going. After about aanother 20 minutes Lucia came back, a couple of dead rabbits in his hand.

"Not very big, but better then nothing." he said, eyeing the fire then looking around.

Xelera smiled some, "at least the meat will won't be tough.." she chuckled, "Rabbit is pretty good, have you ever had it?" she asked, glancing up at him from the fire.

"I've had a little of everything so... yeah. I like my rabbit stewed mostly."

He sat down, his scythe over his shoulder and his back against a tree.

Xelera smiled slightly, "I'm not sure about making stew, we don't have a pot." she chuckled a little. She took the rabbits, starting to prepare them so they could eat. She glanced up at Lucia as she worked occasionally, "So any ideas yet on how to get your bag back?" she asked.
