OOC: That's okay. I've been moving Alpida and Fawn along myself to keep their time line consistent with the others, but we can just have this plot line be a little ways back in time.
OOC: Oh thanks! : D Where are they now?
OOC: Technically, they're at the Ruins of the Pine Forest, but I want to play through some of the stuff that got them there. I'll make it go quickly, though.
IC: Alpida and Fawn continue on their way, until they reach a clearing with a large tree in the middle of it. "Here she is." Alpida walks over to the tree and touches it with her hand.
The bark begins to shift, forming a rough approximation of a woman's face. "Hello, Alpida. It is good to see you again. How did your war go? Did you find Logaire and the Kriatoma?"
"It is good to see you again, too, Elowyn. We found them, and we won the war, but it was costly. Many were lost, including Logaire."
The face seems to sadden. "Then it is just the two of us now." There is a pause. "I don't believe you've come to me for a friendly visit, Alpida. That was never your way. Do you need my help once again?"
Alpida grins. The expression seems odd on her scarred face. "I have brought a friend to speak with you." She gestures to Fawn. "This is Fawn. She is looking for the other Kriatoma. Do you know where they might be?"
Elowyn seems to think for a moment, and then she says, "I'm afraid not. I hear things from the creatures of the forest sometimes, and the other trees, and the wind, but their reach only extends so far. The best that I can tell you is that they sailed away south, probably to the islands."

OOC: So I should find this in the Ruins of the Pine Forest then and go from here?

OOC: So I should find this in the Ruins of the Pine Forest then and go from here?
OOC: No, this is in the Forest, several hours ago. I'm going to go through everything we would have done, but I'll speed it up so we can catch up.
OOC: Anything you'd like to say to Elowyn? If not, I'll just move it along some more.
OCC: I guess not particularly, thanks.
OOC: Okay, then. We'll continue.
IC: "Thank you for your help, Elowyn. I wish we could stay, but I need to get her back to her family and then I must return to my kingdom." Alpida turns to leave.
"Wait," says Elowyn, "You remember the prophecy I gave to you last time? There is more I must tell you. Velasco said not to reveal this until your second visit, and that time has now come: The children of Earth and Sea have awoken. The children of Ice and Storms have awoken. Soon, the children of Wind and Fire will awake as well. Before that happens, you must find the House of Bones and take from there the item that can save you. Time is short. You must choose correctly, or we all will be doomed."
"Thank you, Elowyn. I promise, I will make sure the kingdoms heed Velasco's words." She leads Fawn away, back into the forest. "Come, there is one more person who may be able to help you. And he may be able to help me find the meaning of Velasco's prophecy as well."
OOC: Since, technically, compared to the timeline of the rest of the RP, this has already happened, I'm going to get you there now. I'll also get you close to the time of the rest of the RP.
IC: Gartt and Tathar have trouble finding the Forest Band, in no small part thanks to their very general directions, but they at last reach it just as night is beginning to fall.
OOC: Winn the Great: Do you want to take over, or should I keep going?

IC; A gate keeper sees them and calls out to them. "What is your business?" he asks.

OOC: Okay. Cool, now there's a prophecy, this should prove interesting....

OOC: I hope so. Otherwise, I'm doing a bad job.
IC: Alpida leads Fawn out of the Forest and into the Pine Forest.
