Klethen — Elderstrand (w/ Ilahna)
Klethen watched as Ilahna stepped over the edge of the roof and slowly float down to the ground (-wait, are the Strings visible?-).
“What in Thaliu,” He said to himself, “What kind of fairytale is this?”
Shaking his head, he decided he would later. For now he needed to get down. He looked over the edge of the roof. It wasn’t far, a short enough distance to fall. He gripped the edge of the roof and swung his body over it. He hung for a second, before dropping to the ground.
Looking at Ilahna he asked, “What should we do first?”
Any noun can become a verb if you don't care enough.
@jonas ^forgot to tag.

When lifting something, a Strings appears as a glowing outline around it, or at least—for larger objects—a partial one on the side it’s pushing from.
I think I’ll wait to reply, because I’m not sure where they should go, but it looks like there might be some commotion in another area of the city, so they could get attracted to that potentially.

I suppose. I’ll just open things up for you to take this where you want.
Ilahna ——— Elderstrand (w/ Klethen)
Ilahna glanced back and forth down the darkened streets, and dread returned again as she remembered how lost she was.
”I…I have no idea.”

📚 Appreciator of BooksOkay… I’m here, finally! Lol.
Everett – Elderstrand/Edge of Elderstrand
Everett sprang off the ground in fright, eyes wide open. Anything that wasn’t encased in darkness was blurry and an awfully quiet town was barely visible from his location.
What was this place? It definitely was not snowing, which wasn’t normal. The area wasn’t even extremely cold. And what should he do about this? Everett moved his hand to the hilt of his sword, jumpscaring himself when he drew the weapon. That action he considered far too noisy for this silent place.
Everett dashed for the town entry. As soon as he set foot inside, an odd looking fellow stepped forward, about to angrily go on about something then took a better look at Everett’s appearance.
It was a soldier… but from which continent? It didn’t look like any of the ones from his land.
“What is this place?” Everett demanded in a low voice.
“Who are you?” The soldier asked in return. Everett glowered at him and repeated the question, then sprinted off when the man began striding towards him. Of course, he was followed.

Wyoh ate my post 😫
As I said before my post was devoured…
You’re welcome to have your character join me and Jonas’ if you want (unless he objects for some reason).
Same goes for anyone’s characters who don’t have a group yet.
And @jonas, I know it’s my turn to RP, but my brain doesn’t want to right now 🤷♀️

I don’t object.

That’s fine. I just did that so that you would have the opportunity to if you wanted to.

📚 Appreciator of BooksOne thing I forgot to mention about Baron’s (Brutus’s) appearance is that his clothes are dirty, almost as if he slept in dirt. His scarf, face, and hair are relatively clean though.
"You need French Toast."
Oh, alright! Thanks.
Everett – Elderstrand (with Ilahna and Klethen)
Everett left the soldier far behind him, though he was astonished to find that the whole town appeared desolate – other than the one man he’d found.
He continued to walk throughout the area, until voices reached his ears. The words at this point were unintelligible, yet then he moved closer. Without waiting to overhear anything, Everett bolted at the two people and kicked one down, the other he glared at with his sword tightly held in his barely trembling hand.
“Where are we?” he asked darkly, failing to make eye contact with the person in front of him.

Sorry it took so long to get back, I didn’t get an email, I am glad I checked now though!
Jirah and Rosemary (Elderstand w/Rina)
Rosemary started to kick at the guards, but it was no use. They got behind her and began to fully tie her hands. “I’m not sure…” Jirah responded to Rina. “I think we could, but I took an oath to my king not to bring any har- Oh forget it this is the wrong kingdom!”
“On the count of three we Rush them! You fight the guards, I’ll free Rosemary!” Jirah held up one finger, then two, then on the third they rushed from the ally and at the guards.

@highscribeofaetherium @beth-torres
Since I got here first, I will take the liberty of declaring that Klethen was the one that got knocked down. (Sorry, Klethen.)
Ilahna —— Elderstrand (w/ Klethen and Everett)
Out of nowhere, something knocked into Klethen throwing him to the ground. Ilahna scrambled backwards, beginning a low tune to manifest her Strings. The colored light emanating from her illuminated a tall man in armor pointing a huge sword at her. It caught the light in a strange way that ordinary metal should not have.
“Where are we?” he demanded.
Ilahna made no reply. She wasn’t about to lower one of her defenses just to answer the question of someone pointing a weapon at her. She cursed herself for having been so oblivious to have been sneaked up on unaware. At least now, with her Strings up, she could tell that there was no one else nearby.
You probably didn’t get a notification because I forgot to tag you originally, and then edited it in. I’ve never been sure if that works or not, so it’s good to get confirmation that it does not. So, that’s my bad!
Rina —— Elderstrand (w/ Jirah and Rosemary)
Rina opened a portal and dropped directly onto one of the guards. He immediately crumpled under her weight, collapsing to the ground. As the others turned in surprise, she leapt off the fallen guard, through a portal, and appeared right in front of another. Before he could react, she placed a hand on his chest, growing a layer of crystals to hold on, and slammed him forcibly to the ground. She turned and opened another portal, punching through it. Her fist smashed into another guard’s face while he was still six feet away. Spinning around again, she sent a kick through another portal, causing a fourth guard to double over as she hit him in the gut. Rina leapt to the side, through a portal and appeared behind the guards.
“Over here!” she taunted them. The guards turned, and slowly moved closer together, doubtless realizing that she would have a harder time if they were close enough to intercept her before she could move away.

I’m thinking about sending in the NPCs sometime soon. In particular, for the two groups in Elderstrand, I think a good time to do that will be coming up.
For the other two groups, it can happen when you want it to. I know nothing was really happening, so if you want me to send them in to get things rolling again, I can do that, or if you want to wait for a bit longer, that is also fine. I know the Marcel-Sara-Felicity-Ellis group is still on the way to the city, so if the other people in that group want to get there first, that’s fine. For the group, which I’m not a part of, just let me know when you would like me to do so.
Lastly, @grcr, I know you aren’t part of a group yet. I imagine that any group would be happy to let your character meet up. Otherwise, if you want some NPCs to help guide him before he meets a group, I can do that as well.
