Adventure On: Finale and Conclusion

Blue

The Mountain

Once they get close enough everything is storm, ice swirls around them, stabbing them like knives. Winds seem to be actively pushing them away, no matter what direction they approach from. Still the crystal wolves walk on, heads down, paws silent, climbing upwards.

The higher they climb the colder it becomes. So cold that ice forms on eyelashes, that air seems to freeze as it leaves their mouths. So cold their chests hurt. They would not be wrong to assume that the only reason they can withstand this at all is because of the SCA around their wrist.

Ice tumbles down around them often, shaking the ground. The crystal wolves know the way and they keep going, steady on the path. They have spaced themselves out, to be in sight of all those who follow.

The Summit

As they finally reach the top of the mountain they reach a calm space, outside of the swirling storm. Domed across the summit is a fire cage, larger by far than any they have seen before. In the middle of the giant fire cage sits a dragon. White and blue, scales that look as if they were made of ice themselves. Their head was bowed, eyes closed but they are breathing, breath escaping in clouds of freezing mist that evaporated in the heat of the cage.

Around the cage itself are ice elementals, outside the storm these can be seen by the snow they whirl around inside them, each is about three feet tall but fly in a whirlwind as they attack. Like those in the storm they try and push people around and attack with shards of ice. These corrupted spirits seem to have no reason to their attacks, they are just as likely to push a combatant closer to the cage then they are towards the raging storm.

They can be fought, fire works well against them just as ice and cold magic works well against the fire cage itself.

A Sovereign Freed

Eventually the cage stops fighting, fading away into the snow before them. The crystal wolves spring forth, nuzzling at the dragon until they raise their head. Piercing blue eyes look over the group and the dragon bows their head once. They take a deep breath and breathe out over those assembled, cold fire washes over them, healing any hurts that they have, easing their fatigue som

The crystal wolves bow their heads too, a thank you. Aerlie flaps their wings, rising high into the air. Another breath of cold fire flies out around the area, clashing with the storm for a moment before overtaking it. Around the mountain the storm calms, the ice elementals stop and seem to sink into the snow or fade into the air. The mountain descends into a calmness.

The crystal wolves will approach all those who helped free them, nuzzling into their hands, a personal thank you before a shimmering gate opens for the adventurers to step through.

Red

Final Siege

It’s been a tiring three days of protecting the crystals from the creatures that sought their power. But now, as their power is fully recharged it is time to return them to the border. That is going to be a tougher job than getting them to the volcano’s heart in the first place!

They thrum with power and that power is a siren call to the creatures of the area, fire dogs, lizards, fire sprites. Just as the mountain attacked inside the heart, here the spirtes join with the rivers of lava to flood pathways, block routes, making it harder to cross already treacherous territory, or even driving them into traps of waiting fire dogs.

The heat is oppressive, heat from around them, heat from the crystals seems to sap the energy from those carrying them and so the duty is best shared.

Eventually though they arrive at the border, a mess of melted ice and frozen lava. Each of the crystals need to be replaced.

Restoring the Border

Replacing the crystals is a little more complicated than taking them was. Each one needs to fuse with the holder it sits in. It doesn’t take any skill, just someone to hold it in place for a moment whilst the two fuse together and the magic is channelled into the ground.

Holding a crystal in place is a little more difficult when being attacked by the creatures. The fire creatures keep up the attack until all of the crystals have been replaced.

The Land Repaired

When the last crystal is in place there is a ripple across the land. An invisible line, an ancient magic, connects the crystals, seperating the two lands. Ice recedes from lava and the melted snow refreezes. The borderlands of slush undergo transformation as the two elements separate from each other once more. A land of fire and a land of ice, with a pulsing magic separating the two.

The firedogs and lizards retreat, fire elementals calm and join with the lava streams once more. A shimmering gate opens.

An Important Message

The Huma birds have been carrying crystals and helping the harvesters, protecting them from the blighted birds and encouraging them to work hard.

But those returning to the floating islands on the afternoon of the eleventh day of Horseshoe come bearing black cloth bags in their talons, each has a scroll attached. The Huma birds will make it very clear they are to read the scroll first.

DO NOT OPEN THE BAG UNTIL NIGHT FALLS

Inside this bag are rare crystals. When they are exposed to the light of the sun they will cause the islands to sink back to the ground. After the sun has set tonight please distribute these evenly around the islands and then depart back down to the land below before sunrise. The lands natural magic will do the rest but we do not recommend being on the islands when they fall.

Thank you for your hard work.

The Adventurers Guild


With a long night ahead they may wish to rest for the remainder of the day.

Distributing the Crystals

If they do as they are asked then it will be a long night, there are many chunks of islands and a lot of crystals to distribute. The darkness makes it harder and the blighted birds seem even grumpier in the cover of darkness.

The wind sprites also are not resting and indeed seem delighted that playtime has been extended into the hours of night. Placing crystals is difficult when the Voidtreckers find themselves swept up into the air to dance around the trees.

Getting down by sunrise may be a little trickier than placing the crystals, especially if they have used up their flight potions, but hopefully there are enough people to help everyone get to safety.

Islands Fall

The sun rises, as the first rays of light hit the island they begin to vibrate, shudder. Then one by one they begin to fall, rapidly and chaotically. It is perhaps wise to not be anywhere near the crater as they do so.

They land in a crash of dust, which obscures the area. When the dust clears however they will see a perfect undamaged land. The pieces have fit back together, exactly where they should be, despite the chaos. The land is repaired and whole once more. Huma birds call excitedly as they dart through the air, their land restored.

A gate opens, for them to step through if they wish.

Purple

A Cure

It is day ten of Horseshoe when the first Huma birds fly into the village, they carry crystals either in bags in their talons or in their beaks.

The villagers clearly know what is going on for they welcome the birds and take the crystals thankfully. Anyone not currently fighting or purifying crystals is brought in to help distribute cures.

Actually curing someone is easy, it just requires the crystal to be touch an affected person or creature. The crystals are only good for one cure so those curing the blighted will be required to carry a few and run them to the villages.

Others can take crystals out into the woodland, looking for blighted animals to help.

A Final Fight

All but one of the golems have been found, defeated and restored. The final one has been elusive, not approaching the village or even the nearby woodlands.

The restored golems are back to standing vigil in each village, ready to deal with any attack that may occur.

But when an attack comes, it is not on a village, but on the shrine in the centre. A golem, three trolls and a host of animals, some blighted, some just angry. They attack in the early morning, the villages awoken by shouts and sounds of battle.

Luckily the blighted creatures can be healed, angry animals can perhaps be soothed. The trolls cannot be soothed though and will indeed try to rile up the animals again, to cause as much chaos as they can.

Peace Once More

Once the final golem is taken down, the crystal restored and the trolls defeated there is a quiet comes across the villages. Those who were blighted are cured, the golems are back in their place as guardians of the village and thanks to the adventurers the villages have gotten through this time with minimal damage.

The villagers thank the adventurers, tell them to come and visit whenever they are in the area. A gate opens, for any voidtreckers who wish to return to Royal Lake Hill.

Royal Lake Hill: All Teams!

They return to the tavern, each to the inn that they set off from. The town is a little busier now, more areas have recovered from the blight and it has brought more trade into the town. Everyone is still relatively elderly or young, non fighters. But the market is bustling, there is even a puppet show going on in the square.

Around midday a beeping of their SCA will show a dot on their map where the Voidtrecker Express has landed, not far out of town, and a message. You may remain here until sunset.

It is up to them whether they wish to return to the train or spend the rest of the day in the town. For those staying in town they will find word of their deeds have preceded them and they will find no end of young, wide eyed, budding adventurers ready to buy them a drink or two in exchange for stories.

Orange Team

With the mission wrapping up it was probably the last chance for them to look for parsnips as the optional quest, and Senku was definitely open to doing that, to pass the time between getting the bag. Thanks to his disagreement with the huma bird, he wouldn't do the tagging mission.

When the sun went down, he began spreading the crystals around as requested.

Then, he would definitely leave the island, he wasn't going down with the ground.

Royal Lake Hill

Senku could be found hitting the markets, eager to get the rest of the supplies he could want for the trip, and not wanting to have carried them that whole time.

He could also be talked into having a drink if someone wanted the company at the bar, nothing wrong with one at least. He wasn't a heavy drinker. Or, perhaps a meal.

He intended to spend all the time in town he could before they had to return to the train.

The Border
Xue Yang is growing tired of these fire dogs but they have been good to play with as far as testing his new skills. For now though he is focused on a couple of the boulders, laying out talisman barriers for anyone that is attempting to hold the crystals in place. It won't keep the creatures out for long but hopefully it is long enough to get the crystal to fuse with it's rock.

And while he keeps guard over those, he gets to play with his new swords. Having achieved what he needed to purchase them..two shiny new swords seem to glow red from the heat around them. Duel wielding them as easily as if they were only one sword. And then in a flash they seem to become one, bound together by a glowing thread by the hilts to create one long blade.

He takes on every creature that tries to get close to the crystals with a smirk on his lips, clearly enjoying this return to form.

Royal Lake
Xue Yang doesn't care much about having fans of his work standing over him and begging for stories. But he is accepting of the free drinks they are offering. So he compromises by showing them talisman tricks versus actually talking about the mission.

When he eventually grows bored of entertaining the villagers he starts to stroll through the town to determine if there is anything else he desires to spend his hard earned gold on.

The Summit- Blue

It was a relief to come out of the storm into the relative calm of the summit. Less so to see what awaited them there. But ice elementals? Those he could handle easily.

While others dealt with freeing the trapped dragon, Lea engaged the icy spirits with Keyblade and fire magic. "Like toasting Icy Cubes in a barrel," he said with a bit of a grin as another one melted before his flames. Still, though there were a lot of them, and Lea was quickly becoming surrounded.

Royal Lake Hill- OTA

Back in town Lea was using his free time before sunset to do some shopping. He wanted to stock up on some fruits and veggies, as well as herbs and spices for the train's kitchens. A little harder to find were crafting supplies like string and paint, or a tool fine enough to poke a hole in seashells without destroying the shell. He also made a point to look around for unshaped metal and glass that he might be able to use as materials, but doubted he'd find any of that for a price he could afford.

orange: the last night

Kaiba is having a Night. He's high up in one of the trees, desperately clinging to it as the wind sprites play around him. He throws a few little rocks with one hand, waits...and then begins to climb down the tree. Breathe, rinse, plant, repeat. Should anyone walk by at this point, he'll try to wave them away. He's fine, honest.

"Stay back. I've got this." Unfortunately for him, a gust hits and he's forced to cling harder.

royal lake hill

Kaiba returns to town with a few gold pieces in hand, searching for his allies. The group is noticeably smaller than it was when they arrived, and that has him worried.

"...how many did we lose?"

Sorry, but he's too distracted to participate in merriment at the moment.

Mami has finally reached this group, with Piccolo's help. She spends much of her time near Madoka, doing her best to keep her friend safe. But there's so much more to do as well!

She uses her magic yellow ribbons to help anchor the team in the middle of the storm, useful as climbing ropes. Should anyone falter, she'll offer them a ribbon to cling to. "It's all right."

Then comes the battle. Mami focuses her bullets on the ice elementals---it's not as effective as using fire, but she can make cracks. They'll rescue the dragon somehow!

back at royal lake hill

Immediately upon her return, Mami focuses on checking with the Red group. Did they make it without her? Are they all right? She's sorry she left in such a hurry.

But after the dust settles, she'll stop for a snack, looking half-asleep. Just let her rest on this stone stool until they go back to the train.

Distributing the Crystals

None of this had been strenuous work. It was just--work. Delicate and demanding and back bending work. Her eyes had started to cross by day three. Her back hurt, her hands cramped. Honestly, she had wanted to go fight something just for the change of pace. But--one last thing. And of course--of course it would require nightfall.

By midnight, Persephone is tired, grumpy, and tossing crystals down instead of carefully placing. The delicacy and thought of earlier that evening is gone. Dawn is still hours away.

"I'm not ungrateful that they found a way to put these islands back. But couldn't the birds have helped us distribute them?"

Back on the Train

It had been an exhausting night and only a more exhausting morning, making her way back to the train. Honestly, Persephone wants to climb into her bunk and fall straight asleep, but she has a few things in her pocket to bring back. It was a good thing that her outfit came with so many pockets and bags, who knew you needed so many?

Which means she has to make a stop over in the greenhouse. Persephone drops down on the edge of a plot that she's nominally decided is hers, based on the lack of anyone else planting something in it and pokes a few holes. Then she digs in the various bags, finds the right one, and sets a cutting in one and two seeds in another set. It's a moment's work to have flowers poking their heads up from the soil, curled up in tight buds.

But it's still a moment's work after an exhausting week. Persephone yawns, lays her head on her arm and falls asleep right then and there, tucked off the path.

A Final Fight
Trunks thought he was used to fighting--and in a way he was. It was almost like attacks from the androids, but more condensed--and admittedly not as dangerous as they were, though still dangerous enough. Which meant that he, like others, was asleep when the attack on the shrine came.

Of course, he came awake quickly. Not a large group, but enough to be a pain. He really didn't want to hurt the animals, and the golem could do some damage, but the trolls were clearly the instigator. Probably overkill, but he's charging straight into the fray where the trolls are, sword flashing and looking to take them down.

Royal Lake Hill
Trunks understood now what Piccolo meant when he said it wasn't like what they faced. It both was, and wasn't, as dangerous in some ways, and there were more people to keep track of. He still had at least a little bit of shopping to do, however, before he returned to the train.

-Red Team finale-

10 Vigilant Gaze was at 10/10 energy for the entire mission. He never slowed down, he never rested, he never stopped giving his all. A tireless stone warrior who never seemed to need to stop, and who was ALWAYS there for a helping hand or two (or even three or four!), and who was always there to fight off angry monsters. And good gods he can fight.

He might be kind of stuffy and condescending, he might be kind of stiff and formal, but it's undeniably useful to have him fighting on your side.

-Sparring-

AFTER all their duties were complete, Vigilant Gaze hunted down Piccolo and had a brief conversation with him before the two of them just marched off into the woods. An hour or two later, flashes of light started flickering across the horizon.

Anyone investigating would find the two going at it hammer and tongs. Their blows flashed by almost too fast to follow. Misses knocked over trees or left craters. Beams of light flashed through the air. Explosive impacts left ears ringing. Vigilant Gaze seemed to have a mild advantage in raw physical strength and expert technique, but Piccolo made up for it with speed and his ability to fly.

Try to stop them? Just sit back and enjoy the spectacle of it all? Take bets on who's gonna win?

blue, semi-wildcarding it up here sssh, right after mami arrives

[personal profile] happyends 2020-09-22 11:54 am (UTC)(link)
There's been a bit of a gap between realising some people were gone and Mami - and Mami's friend's - arrival to the blue team. So while Madoka has gotten over the initial shock at that point thanks to having had a little while to process it and to go out and try to look for Maru with some people, it hasn't done much about the sadness yet. About the realisation that so many important people to her really are gone. Temporarily, for now, but perhaps permanently later.

But when she spots a very familiar yellow colour standing out against the background of everything around them being so white, Madoka is quick to run over towards the figure. Of course-- even though some people are gone, and it hurts a lot, at least she's not entirely alone.

"M.. Mami-san..!" She shouts as she runs towards the other girl.

It had been a very quiet train when Webmind awoke in Luggage for the second time.

Checking his SCA had revealed he'd missed the mission call, to put it lightly, and so with some exasperation he had busied himself looking after the various pets and plants on board.

Then the train had landed out of the fog in some form of stealth mode, and for what he could only describe as his own health he had left it in turn.

One can find a purple-cloaked figure wandering about town, taking in natives and the state of repairs from the blight in equal parts amusement and... disappointment?

To fellow Voidtreckers he will identify himself; natives will have to work harder to catch a glimpse of his screen - or indeed, any part of him. He would hate to be mistaken for a golem!

It's cold.

"Hihhhh...geeze, th's seemed easier in my dreams," he huffs, the storm blasting around them viciously. "I can't ev'n have th' others help, they'd turn t' ice in this crap..!" the blond chatters, clinging to what he can. "Dammit..!"

[personal profile] unfavorableinstigation 2020-09-22 03:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Nita has had her own Night - though 'Week' is perhaps more accurate; after that first Huma bird encounter, she's spent much of her time applying on-site cures to the blighted birds and sprites in addition to harvesting crystals.

In comparison, this night's load is lighter to her, so as she runs up to him she calls,

"Want me to play spotter for you? I can probably distract the sprites longer, anyway."

As for the sprites, she whistles.

/You do realize he's not going to change what he's doing, right? That game's going to get old, fast./

It was quite a spectacle seeing a Keyblade wielder in action! Alfredo thought his own actions to be less so, but even so he wished to help.

With a shout, he intended to distract if not redirect some of the sprites, and let Lea get some breath back.

He really should have asked Piccolo for a shield, though...!

"... How much gunpowder can you create at once?"

Alfredo does not like having to fight, generally, but he does know how to handle a gun without faltering, and how to use it to protect someone if he has to.

But what they need right now - to face these ice sprites, at least - is a source of heat. And where one gunshot can make a spark:

"We can make a larger explosion, if we have more material. Or- what happens if you shoot a bullet while it's moving?"

Nita's a little late in reboarding - there were some matters she'd wanted to check into, doors she'd wanted to make sure were closed, so to speak - but she has enough energy left for a patrol before crashing into bed herself.

And it's a good thing, too, much as finding the sleeping goddess leaves Nita with a dilemma: try to move (levitate?) her back to her room, or just move her to a corner and hope no one trips over her?

... Maybe she should just ask.

"Persephone," Nita whispers, crouching down to shake her friend's shoulder lightly.

"I don't mind you sleeping in the grass, but you could get tripped over if you sleep here!"

Maybe it's her own lack of sleep, but the humor of the situation hits her enough to leave her giggling after she speaks.

Mission

Alfredo, while not armed, is still trying to help to the best of his ability! He can be quite fast when he needs to, help play defense for those taking down sprites or the cage en masse, or help distract the sprites into fighting against their own cause.

A Sovereign Freed

Once the fighting is done, Alfredo has one question remaining - so while he accepts the nuzzles there is still a puzzled look upon his face.

He looks hesitant to just go through the portal; he may take some convincing, if only to get whatever it is off his chest!

Blue: The Mountain

There were a lot of creatures with the group, the crystal wolves, other creatures that had been freed from the traps. So it was maybe not surprising to see a kirin among the group. It looked almost like a horse, a steel black coat and mane, a horn protruding from its forehead. He stuck with the main group, as they climbed the mountain.

He could change back, now that the change had happened he knew he could transform with barely a thought. But he had lost his clothes and it was too cold to even contemplate changing back even if he found spares.

He sticks close to Gyousou, though he keeps an eye on Tidus as well and anyone else who is nearby. He's at least larger in this form and so makes a decent windblock.

As ice tumbles around him he turns his head to the nearest person. "Be careful!" Kirin mouths don't move like human ones, but they will hear the words out loud regardless.

Blue: Summit

No matter what form he is in Taiki cannot fight and so he is at the edges of the battle, worrying and feeling slightly ill. A battle is a battle even against a fire cage and it is not something he wishes to witness.

He is trying to be helpful though, he is light and it is very difficult to fly through the storm but when the ice elementals push people out he goes after them, he's large at least and easy to spot, midnight black in a world of white snow.

Royal Lake Town

He's mostly found a mismatch of clothes from spares they had packed that will do for the afternoon, until they return to the train at least. He is back in his human form as he wanders the markets and streets of the town.

He is primarily looking for Inigo, but that's not to say he won't stop if he sees anyone he knows, especially those from different teams who he hasn't seen in a few days.

"Hello... Are you alright?"

"Keep off!"

With the warning, more of a call before a spell being initiated, Lea becomes surrounded in a barrier of sea-green, and anything magical the ice elementals attempt to throw at Lea get bounced back. More of an annoyance for them than anything, but it'll have them confused for the time being.

"Keep at it, Lea!"

Tidus will keep up the water spells to break at the cage as he can!

Tidus isn't letting any of these kids go around without some protection. There's those who can create their own, but when they come upon the scene, and Tidus notices Alfredo joining in the fray, he calls out, "Alfredo!", and from the short distance between them, a barrier of sea-green surrounds him.

It'll bounce off the icy magic of the weather, at least for a time.

"Be careful!"

mountain climb;
    It's hard to see anything in this storm, and it's gotten to a point where Tidus isn't sure his magic can really do much to aid. But he tries anyway, offering to use barrier spells to surround and protect them of the winds and ice, some small means of keeping off the storm. Lea's fire may be more useful for keeping warm, the fire sprite with Galo too, and they may be able to work some of the available heat within the barriers.

    But it's tough to say how long his own spells will last, though he'll renew any waning spells no matter how it exhausts him, grimacing through the cold.

    "Keep close!"
summit;
    But finally, they make their way out of it. The freezing chill still clinging to them--or it is Tidus--but he doesn't care. Limbs stiff, he sees the cage and finds himself sick to the point of just wanting to tear it down. Good thing that's the point, really.

    He sprints through the weather, using magic to aid in being quicker than he should; using it as a means of escaping the ice sprites as best he can, while he tries to focus on the fire cage. Conjuring up large bubbling spheres of water that eat away at the flames when he can get the spells to go off.

    "Get lost!" But the ice sprites are nuisances for a guy whose fire spells are weaker in comparison, slower to cast. He throws some out as he can as balls, but he's attempting to focus on the cage for a reason. Backup wouldn't hurt in the slightest.
sovereign freed;
    He doesn't know what makes it come to a stop. It's cold on the ground--should be, anyway, but Tidus falls back onto his butt, sitting, dazed and the cold warmth keeping his body from feeling the chill. The contrast is almost startling--if Tidus could even comprehend it right now. Or wanted to.

    "Can't believe we made it..."
royal lake hill;
    He doesn't have the energy to bask in the awe of those within the village, and luckily, not everyone is easy to tell as one of the grand heroes or however they're being heralded. The mission's been personally emotional draining, but a rollercoaster too. He's not completely sure what he wants to do, until he sees some faces he recognises.

    He wants to catch up, see how people are doing. So he approaches those he knows, asking with a tired tug of his mouth not entirely a smile, "How're you doing?", if they don't appear immediately occupied.

    Other than that, he can be seen around with a...digital camera, is that? Taking snapshots of the town they're in, even in the adventurer's guild, to capture one of the large kingdom map. Though he doesn't appear to take any interest in any of the more pleasing-looking structures, taking a few snapshots of the other voidtrekeckers, particularly any weary groups.

    And then later, he goes off, finding a place to himself up on the city wall. From a distance he seems to be writing inside the notebook issued to him by the train, using the quiet and privacy to concentrate. But the second he hears a sound, he snaps the book shut and looks up, letting out a sigh.

    "Oh-- hey."
wildcard;
    And for anything else, wildcard me up.

"Thanks!"

The shout isn't entirely stolen away by the wind, but Alfredo soon becomes quiet for a different reason.

He is sneaking up on an ice sprite - or trying to.

"Follow me," he whispers, before rushing off in the direction of the cage, making it seem like he's scared.

Fai certainly won't use his powers to lend a hand - he tries pretty hard to make it look like he's useless, after all. But he does see the swarm surrounding Lea, and grabs for a long, fallen branch that is probably suitable for what he has in mind, and goes in swinging with a wide sweep to attack the fire spirits.

Knocking some of them away, he lands nimbly beside Lea with a smile.

"Didn't want these to get too close to cooking your goose."

"Wheet-woo~" Fai calls out with their success.

And then, there's a thud as Titus fall's over and Fai blinks for a second to see what happened.

Fai laughs a little and offers his hand to Titus.

"But we did it. ...Well, you guys did." He tries to play it off as if he didn't do anything himself.

A Final Fight

While others might be busy with actions here or there, Cure Moonlight is zeroed right in on any forthcoming threats, and come they do. She's spent most of her time bouncing from golem to golem with a troll here or there, not really stopping to chit-chat very much, but is probably going to be very noticeable as she sends a fairly large, flower shaped burst of purifying energy traveling along the ground towards the hostile forces.

"Silver Forte Wave!"

Which if it connects, then good, but if it also serves to draw their attention, even better.

Royal Lake Hill

However, once all is said and done, Yuri will hang about the town until such time as they have to return. A social butterfly she is not, but she's not... entirely antisocial if anyone approaches. She spends a fair amount of time admiring things in the market, glad for at least a little time away from either fighting, or being stuck inside that train.
