"Not necessarly , if you want boiling water you just have to compress it enough so that the pressure make it boil. this way you make a cold infusion : look !"
Excited to show off like a kid, Jace made a cup of his hand and just above it he condensed some of the forest humidity into a floating water bubble and made it concentrate on itself up to the point of having some steam escaping from it. he added the leaf inside the boilig bubble and continue walking , way too proudly of his trick, keeping the levitating infusion close his hand.
"see ? nothing too complica-tea-d...."
Hara (played by MissHolmes)

" Well that's one part of it solved. How are we gonna drink it? Are we gonna have to hold hot tea in our hands?" Hara couldn't help but laugh at himself while he spilled his questions. It was a genuinely humorous thought, and Hara didn't care enough to suppress it. He had to admit, Jace's little trick was pretty cool. Certainly more than Hara was capable of; the only thing he could do was play an instrument and sing, but he wasn't gonna shout that to the whole world. Not hardly.
With a malicious laugh , Jace turned around to face his new companion and did some weird gesture with his finger, taking a deep, mysterious voice to whisper : "Maaaaagiiiiiiiic.....!"
He then laughed his heart out and got back on track, drawing circle with his index so that the water bubble would swirl on itself.
"Just kiding : Ice cups and straws, duh !"
Pyronnis watches Hara and Jace with bemused detatchement. Maybe Jace's good humours would do well to lift moral later on in their journey - it seemed to be the only none violent quality any of them possessed that had yet to deteriorate due to circumstance.

She'd seen it fit to change from the loose, gauzy clothing she'd arrived in -which stuck out like a sore thumb- and into something more of the people.' Currently she strode along in a heavy dull red cloak, fasted about her neck with a golden clasp. Her circlet had been removed, as well as all her other jewelry, aside from what could not - or would not - be removed. Her necklace of glowing flame in the shape of a rose and enchanted anklet let off soft pulses of light.

Below this garment, she wore a simple tank top like shirt, and loose traveling pants, knee high heel-less boots laced up there. Her wild curling mass of hair had been tamed into a ponytail and tucked within the hood of the cloak, which she wore up above her head.

She did well matching pace with the others, despite her shorter proportions, and aside from asking Nikki or Kiro a question about surrounding animal life or vegetarian once and again, stayed silent.

( sorry it's kinda short and I've been absent, getting over a nasty cold )
(Of all people , you're the one who catches a cold ? oh this is rich ! You realise the joke-goldmine this is ? ahahah, prepare to get dunked on : you who suffered Nature's PUNishment !)
( You were not missed, Punny man. -_- XD i see you've been driving Hara up a wall in my absence )
( ... Close enough XD )
Hara (played by MissHolmes)

(( Scratch that.. 7 times. ))

" Hm. That'll prove interesting." He purred and slipped his hands into the pockets of his tunic. They weren't the most practical, but they did their job. The group continued their walk through the forest, all trailing behind Nikki and Kiro who seemed to be the ones who knew where this shrine? was. A small yawn escaped Hara, walking in a forest wasn't the most fun he's ever had. Though, it wasn't worth complaining about.

Nikki stopped when they reached the bridge. It was a wide, wooden structure with railings coming up to a person's hips. There was a toll booth, but the door was ajar and no one was inside. One could only assume what happened. Searching it, Nikki shook hear head.

"Monsters didn't do this. This was the work of bandits. Picked clean."

Kiro adopted a sad expression and started for the bridge, "I can only wonder why there are those who would take advantage of such a terrible situation. A world without Monsters is only a dream."
"Because it's easier than defend your dream. If humans were all kind-hearted we would have known by now.. It's way much easier and logical to be a bandit and to take advantage of people who fight for a great cause in order to enrich yourself , than to defend said cause with your own life." Jace said, sculpting a polished teacup in ice with his free hand.
"If I were from here I would probably do the same. Does anyone else than Hara want tea ?"
Adalwolfa de Monte Gormerico (played by maxd234)

Adalwofla continue to chuckle at Jace's puns, but overall remained quiet. As she followed them she was enjoying the feeling of breeze from the forest on her face. However when they got to the bridge and Nikki and Jace began to talk about bandits, Adalwofla gave an upsetting look as she clutches her hands together. "All those lives I took...excatly 145" she says to herself as she remembers all the bandit encounters and how she ended there lives.
(is it me or is it ... Dead quiet ?)
Hara (played by MissHolmes)

(( I think it was probably my turn to say something. ))

The air was quite awkward.. Trustfully, Hara didn't know what to say, so he just stayed quiet. Then whispered to Jace," I don't think anyone else wants tea..." On that note, the group began crossing the bridge. The young man took a brief moment to gaze over the edge of the bridge, it was always something his subconscious call him to do.
( wait what happened to Vallus ? )
Knight Vallus (played by Niinokmir)

(I'm still following around I'm just busy with other things irl but hopefully I can get back on soon, sorry guys)

Beneath the East Bridge ran the Thread, the great river that flowed from the east to the south until it hit the mountains. The northern river, Wolfsblood, was a smaller river that fed the Thread. It was named after the first Shadow Guardian, Wolfrick, who was the acquaintance of the Hero King since the beginning. After hitting the mountain, the Thread pooled there and then turned into the river Ficelle, running through the valley and stopping in the desert to create the Oasis.

Kiro explained all this to Hara who had seemed interested. Nikki, displeased with the lingering pause, scouted the skies as they spoke. As the explanation went on, a shadow passed over them. Kiro paused his lecture to look up. He didn't have to wait long for his answer.

"To the other side. NOW!" Nikki grabbed him by the wrist and hurried him along, but they were stalled when the entire bridge rocked, nearly tossing them into the water.

At the start of the bridge now sat a dragon, giant and dark with teal green eyes locked on the prince. Its head tilted back, mimicking laughter and a voice echoed in the minds of those present.

"I found you~!" It said in a feminine lilt, "Sneaking through the forest, I wonder where you think you can run to."
"Get away. Now." Nikki urged him again, pushing him backwards and reaching for her knife.
"You think a puny weapon like that can slay a dragon!?" It roared, causing Kiro to cover his ears. Nikki took the blast, the wave of heat emitted brushing past her and revealing the searing mess where her left eye once was. She didn't flinch.

The dragon shook the bridge again as it came down on all fours to look at the group, sparks jumping out from behind its teeth, "Better run little humans, or the big ol' dragon's gonna catch ya!"

And it opened its mouth, releasing the ball of blue flames it had been building up beneath.
As the prince began to flee, Jace 'surprisingly' turned around and pulled out his notebook, starting to scribble something as he went back toward the beast, walking casually as meeting an old friend.
Realising how the other could interpret that he turned back to the group, leaving his back open to the dragon, and said with his nicest smile : "What ? The chairman of my academy is a dragon, I'm not scared by some scale ! *a fireball passes just an inch away from his left shoulder* Okay , maybe just a little scared, but still, as a man of science I have thousands of question to ask this reptile ! Go ahead without me, I'll found you later if you keep Hara alive !"
He turned around to face the beast, regretting immediatly his decision as he saw the fangs close to him. Well, it's not like he could have outrun that thing anyway, yet he wish he had tried. He shook his head and took his more polished smile and voice :
"Well hello there you great... danger... May I offer you some tea ?.."
He then moticed that one of the fireballs had blasted off his infusion bubble.
"oh, my apoligies but the boiled water died.. It shall be mist."
Finally he opened his eyes wider than usual and looked the dragoness in her eyes, as if searching something.
Hara (played by MissHolmes)

" Eh??" Hara whipped his head around and saw a certain snarky and uppity mage face-to-face with the dragoness. He had an internal struggle; to go scoop Jace off his feet? Or to leave Jace with the reptile.
(I totally had the situation under control you know ? ... Thanks I guess.)
(OH. I didn't though you'd took it literally.. hum.. Yeah so that was sarcasm, but uh..; Well actually that makes the situation easier to handle for RedSama so ... I don't know : thanks again ? Let's wait for the GM to respond first of all.. But thanks for being a hero anyway, I shall not forget the alternate timeline were you saved me !)
