Narrative/Video

[higitus_figitus]

It had been far too long now. Over five days since he had last heard anything from The Dreamfinder. His own magics had shown that the man was not even in Main Street! An enormous danger to all of them but more so to Blair himself. As it was, even the Mirror Portal had begun to malfunction without it's builder to maintain it.

A quiet inquiry had been sent out through the Land, to be on the look out for The Dreamfinder. Any news was to be sent straight to Merlin or Hades...none had come. Which was why he now sat at his table, staring at his own small communication mirror.

There was evidence of the old walkway to Tiki Oasis having been used. No one had used it since the Oasis had become the Dark Jungles. Whatever survivors having been the last ones through ages ago. It was a rather long shot but, Merlin had nothing else to go on.

[The video turns on to show a very grumpy looking Merlin.]

I am calling all Sorcerer's Apprentices that are currently with in the Magic Kingdoms. I am afraid I have rather worrisome news.

[He rubs the bridge of his nose.]

It seems that The Dreamfinder, has gone missing. I am assuming it has been of his own power but, as he is still a new Kingdom Spirit, and the last Kingdom Spirit, I am afraid he will find himself in great danger.

So I am asking for volunteers. I need to send you out into the Dark Jungles to find the Dreamfinder or else the last beat of imagination this place has will be snuffed out and everything we have been working towards will be destroyed.

[His voice grew far more grim.]

That includes your own worlds. If The Corrosion destroys Main Street, then there is nothing left between it and your worlds. And...once it leaves the Kingdoms- it can not be stopped. If you wish to volunteer please, let me know.

The fate of Imagination is in your hands, Apprentices. Do with that, what you will.

They did. In your apartment. I'm Lydia, by the way. You didn't show up with Rosabella ... when did you get here?

[az_shrimp_horny]

Ugh it's like reading a user manual for a phone or a stereo or something. Who actually does that, right?

[Right?! Right. ETHICS. Be nice, Eleanor.]

Eleanor. I got here a few hours later. I don't think anyone was expecting me, though, since the party was over by the time I got there.

[strangeandunusual]

People who want to know how their stuff works.

[I SEE WHAT YOU DID THERE. but she does feel a little bad that she didn't get a party]

Oh. That ... so you showed up all by yourself and no one explained anything to you? Geez. No wonder you're in a mood.

[az_shrimp_horny]

Or they could just buy less complicated stuff.

[LOGIC]

"In a mood". Yeah, thanks kid.

[She pauses, though. How is it a freaking teenager is the first one to totally peg what's going on in her head??? Her tone softens a little.]

I don't think they were expecting me. I wandered around that stupid castle for like an hour til I scared the shit out of that Merlin guy.

[strangeandunusual]

[Lydia's superpower is seeing through people's bull, that's how]

That's weird. I would have thought that the Dreamfinder would be right there. It's his invention that brings people through ... I'm glad you ran into Merlin, first, though, and not Hades. He's a jerk.

[az_shrimp_horny]

Never even met the guy. And, see, jerks I can handle. Merlin just sounds bonkers.

[strangeandunusual]

Tell you what, if I ever need to send Hades a message, I'll send you.

[az_shrimp_horny]

You've got it, kid. [She laughs]
