Love is patient. Love is kind. Love never fails. -1 Corinthians
And guess what? His is eternal (:Hi, sorry guys, busy week😅ðŸ˜
Maybe I’ll have the creature bring Rosalind into the maze and my charries can run into yours at some point.
TINDER
Her first instinct was to fly. Falling wasn’t quite so scary when you could simply stop it with a mere flutter of your wings. Unfortunatley for her, the moment said wings kicked in, searing pain shot down the many nerves embedded through her delicate membrane. She was only able to keep herself afloat for a couple seconds before plummeting into the dark hole once again.
Falling wasn’t like flying, and as the breath was stolen from her lungs and her organs hollowed out, Tinder decided she did not like it nearly as much. At least her little flutter had slowed her fall before she landed in a heap. Though she couldn’t say the same for the sea captain of her nightmares. She’d landed on top of him, his face twisted in pain. Tinder scanned him for injuries, telling herself it was to gloat if she found any.
His hazy blue eyes drifted open, taking in her position over him. “You know,” he drawled. “You didn’t have to start an earth quake for an excuse to hold me.”
Her scoff echoed as she pushed away from him, cheeks blazing red. “Hold you in a cell, more like,” she muttered. It would be no less punishment than what his men had done to her Tinder’s first week on his ship. Granted he’d severely penalized the ones who’d mistreated her during the time, but she figured that had to have been a show of force more than any actual concern for her wellbeing.
Korian chuckled, but it was followed by a wince as he pulled himself from the ground. He leaned against an oddly smooth gray wall, covered in roots and dying leaves. The whole area was odd, in fact. She studied it, not sure what to make of the hallway like feel of the space. Rocks, leaves, and clumps of dirt piled from where they’d fallen, but the carved out tunnel seemed otherwise untouched. In the distance, she could see patches of light, assumably where a conopy of leaves was covering an opening.
“Are you all right?” The captain asked, nodding to her.
“Why do you care?” she fired back.
He only gave her a rougish grin. “Well I need to know if my opponent is fit enough for when we fight to the death, of course.”
“I look forward to it,” she replied airily. “Now, why don’t we focus on getting out of here, hm?”
“Of course, love.” He waved a hand. “Lead the way.”
KORIAN
They followed the narrow stone hall towards a break in the shadows, where light was breaking through the foliage above. Unfortunatley for both of them, it seemed that just like the gaping hole they’d come from, the walls were both too high and too smooth to climb up. He glanced sidelong at his companion. “Think you could craft up something of a ladder for us, Tinker?”
He watched her bristle at the old nickname. “Not without proper materials. Our best bet is finding an area less deep. Or some other way out.”
Korian cocked his head to the maze of tunnels and probable dead ends a few leagues ahead of them. “Then looks like we’ll be here a while. We might as well get comforta–”
Before he could finish, a loud rustling assaulted his ears. The frantic snap and crunch of undergrowth sounded from somewhere above them, as if something large and fast were running near the tunnel.
“What–” Tinder started to ask but he didn’t let her. Korian pulled her against him, whipping a hand over her mouth. She fought for a moment, and he was worried she might try to bite him until she suddenly stilled at the sound of another snap, this one much closer. It was followed by a low hiss, unlike any creature he’d heard before.
Korian pulled them back slowly until he and Tinder were pressed against the wall, chests heaving as more rustling and scraping sounded above them. What little light shining through above them dissapeared for a moment before something burst through the gap, raining dust and foliage down on them. Korian froze as his vision cleared and he saw whatever it was that had jumped down into the tunnel maze.
It was a strange white creature with thin, bony limbs and a long serpentine neck. The thing hissed again and he caught sight of something, or someone, clutched between its hands. It looked like a woman, but he didn’t get to see much of her before the creature started stalking off down one of the halls, leaving a trail of leaves and dirt in its wake.
“Any ideas what that was?” Korian breathed against Tinder’s hair as soon as he was sure the thing was out of hearing distance. He released his hold on her, dropping his arms to his sides as she shoved away from him.
“No, I’ve never seen anything like it. This is definitley not the Never Isle.” She looked off the path the creature had taken. “What do you think its going to do to that girl?”
“I don’t know, but lets not wait around to find out.” He examined the tracks before setting down the path. “Come on, that woman needs our help.”

I think I’ll get into like the first like trap or trial? Should my charries run into yours at any point?
TINDER
She needed something to do with her hands. Something to build or take apart. As it was, the strange island had limited options. She settled for a handful of rocks, twigs and vines, sitting down to to lash them together while Korian scoped around the area. They’d left the beach, but so far hadn’t found anything more than trees, plants, and more trees. The tinkering proccess soothed her stress somewhat. It always helped, the feeling of something beneath her hands, shaping and constructing until the mess of materials became exactly what she needed. Or, at least close.
She held up the makeshift club as Korian wandered back over. “A weapon?” He guessed. “Looks brutal.”
Tinder nodded, giving him a sacchrine smile. “Yes, all the better to bludgeon you with in your sleep.” She didn’t let him know that it was less to do with self defense and more to help with her balance (they’d been walking for a long time, and with her wings injured it was even more of a strain than normal, her back muscles ached almost as much as her legs.) The weapon part was a bonus. While she was fully aware of the Captain’s skill with his blades, she’d rather have something close. As little as she had to rely on him, the better.
He folded his arms, eyebrows raised. “So violent.”
Her expression flattened, cheeks reddening. As if he was one to talk after all he had done to her, done to her people. “We should probably move,” she said curtly. Korian watched her for a moment before pushing on without a word. He set to work clearing more path with his scythe blades. Foliage fell before him in waves, making Tinder uneasy. If anyone else was around, they would track them easily, simply needing to follow his path of destruction.
Though they hadn’t run into anything, let alone anyone. It was strange. Not even the sound of birds. It was as if the island were dead.
No sooner had she thought it than a deep rumbling overtook the ground. Leaves rattled and fell, stones cracked. Korian shouted her name as a great fissure opened up before them, sucking the dirt from beneath them. With a cry, they fell into the depths.
(I’m thinking its prob gonna be some kind of maze they’ve fallen into, perchance with some… “friends” with claws.)

Okay! Finally got to it!
TINDER
The sand was everywhere. Tinder choked on it, hacking in an effort to dispell the grating particles from her throat. Pushing from the mound of wet beach she’d woken up on, Tinder flopped on her back and sucked in gulps of sand-free air. Feeling slowly returned to her aching body, and soon she could feel the lapping of waves against her toes. Her brows furrowed as she tried to engage her waterlogged brain. What happened…? Her memories were hazy and covered in seasalt. There was the ship… then the angry waves of a storm swallowing her whole. She’d fallen overboard.
A loud groan erupted to her right, and Tinder screwed her eyes shut. Right. She’d fallen overboard with him. As if being stranded wasn’t bad enough. She turned to see him dragging himself from the shore, wet clothes clinging to his every plane. As she brushed sand from her tattered trousers, readying to get up herself, his hand appeared before her face. “Oh so now you’re a gentleman,” she said, accepting the hand with a roll of her eyes.
He cocked a mocking brow. “Only for you. Do keep it quiet, I have a reputation you know.”
She ignored the way his voice rolled over her sand scraped skin like a balm, dropping his hand and stepping away. His gaze dipped over her, giving a cursory glance before freezing near her shoulder. “What?” she demanded.
“Your wing,” his blue eyes went dead serious. He reached forward as if to touch the delicate membrane before letting his hand fall.
“What do you mean my–” she cut off as she flicked the wings, a bolt of pain shooting through her nerves.
“One of them is torn,” his mouth flattened into a frown, and Tinder tried not to let panic overtake her. It rose like bile in her throat, feeling worse than the burning sand from earlier.
“Where?” she asked, voice sharper than a knife.
KORIAN
Taking her arm, Korian pulled her over to a moss laden boulder lining the shore. He wasn’t sure exactly where they were, as the dense and brooding forest beyond the beach looked nothing like the paradise that was Tinder’s home, the Isle of Never. Not to mention that if it were the Isle, surely a host of faerie scouts, kaman beats, or sirens would have killed him the moment he dared breathe on their precious soil, leaving Tinder to dance happily upon his grave.
He studied the faerie now, from the way her blonde hair stuck out in soggy clumps from her ocean addled hair, to how her skin shimmered in the morning sun or how she hunched slightly, her teeth gritting at every twitch of her wings. Setting her gently on the rock, he moved behind her to take a better look at the injury. Korian couldn’t help noticing how tense her body became, tightening more with each inch he drew nearer. “It’s your left wing,” he whispered, breath ghosting over her shoulder. He didn’t dare touch the wing without consent, afraid both for her and of her. Though never would he admit to either fact.
Regardless, something had to be done. “I’m going to need to wrap it, so it doesn’t tear more.”
Tinder nodded rigidly. He reached for his trousers, only to grimace at the sand coating them. He wished he had something cleaner, but it seemed little had made it with them when they’d washed ashore. At least he had his sickle blades fastened tight around his waist. He used one to tear off a strip of cloth, shaking it off before bringing it towards her wing. She might as well have been the wooden figure carved on his ship for all she moved, barely even breathing as he slowly wound the fabric around the delicate membrane. It was only moments, yet it felt like an eternity before he finally backed away, finished. “There,” he said.
Finally the woman unfroze, a sigh heaving from her body. Rising from the rock, she looked anywhere but at him, surveying the towering trees and foreboding foliage.
“Any ideas where we are, Tinker?”
“You’re the sailor who’s traveled the world, you tell me.”
He followed her gaze. “I don’t recgonize it. Maybe next time you drag us into the sea I’ll remember to look at a map first.”
“Wonderful,” she huffed. “Not only am I stranded stars know where, but I can’t even fly away and ditch you.”
Korian’s lips twitched. This was going to be an interesting adventure.

Oooo I love them already!! I can’t wait either! This’ll be so interesting and fun.
Okay my darlings are pretty straightforward. They’re from a reimagining of Peter Pan and represent Tinkerbell and Hook.
1. Tinder: A faerie from this worlds neverland, she is basically ageless but not immortal (she can be killed but its harder because her vlood posesses healing abilities.) She is fairly short like most of her race and has lighter skin that shimmers with gold specks in the light. She has light blonde hair and blue eyes and wears simple leather and cloth with bandages along her arms. Her blood is also gold and when dried becomes pixie dust, granting healing and stops aging if consumed regularly. Because their blood is so powerful faeries were hunted and nearly exterminated by humans, leaving the faeries very bitter towards them. Tinder is determined, hotheaded and very passionate about who and what she cares about. She shared a lot of this prejudice against humans, especially after being betrayed by one herself, yet her love outweighed her anger when she ended up adopting a human to raise.
2. Korian: A morally grey who will sacrifice anything for the ones he loves. He spent his youth on a ship searching for a cure to heal his family, a sister who was fataly ill and a father who couldn’t remember them because of alzheimers. He discovered the faeries and befriended Tinder only to betray her and steal dust from them, unware the dust came from their very blood. He became an infamous pirate and smuggler and Tinder’s mortal enemy. He wears your typical pirate ensamble, leather boots and loose drawstring shirt with a coat. He has two circular hook-like blades. He is average height with curled black hair and bright blue eyes.
At this point I’ll say its about end of book one, they are still in the bickering stages but don’t actually hate one another as they’ve been forced to work together for a while and have managed to tolerate each other.
