Welcome to Gaia! ::

Ensa, the farming village
Several small bunches of houses meet at the corners of large green fields that are acres in area. At the heart of these fields are about a dozen homes, this is the center of trade for Ensa. Many herd their livestock out to graze for the day, and bring them in at night for fear they might loose them to thieves. Vendors sell their goods in the small marketplace, and the dirt path is worn hard and smooth. Small, wobbly fences line the main road that leads through the field to the village center. The houses have white clay walls held together by dark wooden beams, and have thatched roofs of gold straw. The land not occupied by roads or crops has long green grass that sways in the gentle summer breeze.
Order of arrival:
Legretta
Adun
Skaro
Cat
Arietta
((First scenery job. I guess it's alright. I need to learn a bit more about this kind of writing. Then I'll improve on making it seem real rather than getting lost in the details.))

((I can help you write scenery, I've gotten pretty good at it myself and I'm gonna try something new to help with the psyon effect I'm working on, it'll change with the chapters))

From the air many meters up, Adun saw the village closing in. He calculated the remaining distance and pushed himself one last time in the air. His hawk let go and broke into a dive, Adun following close behind. He touched down outside the village and the steel case on his back jangled. He had already removed whatever had been inside and seemed to be sporting nothing new. He looked towards the village and sighed, this was going to be a boring job. He was about to find a place to rest his mind, slightly worn from the journey, when a large explosion rent the air and his silence. he vanished, leaping again, and saw the gunslinger from the cathedral. On the decent he angled himself so that he would land near her. His cloak billowed out behind him and provided Adun with the lag-time he needed to cover his left arm completely, the sleeve had blown up and slightly revealed something black on his arm. He landed behind the gunner and tapped her on the back with his bow, in his right hand

((unless you can't find the picture then I'll write for you guys))

The gunner started to run, after her showing off her accuracy, but not fast enough. The grass rippled underneath him before several chunks of earth burst around him. Adun faded, only an image it seemed, and appeared alongside her, then boosted ahead to reach the village first. He skidded to a halt and turned around to watch the gunner dash towards his location. He pulled out his bow and held it like he was going to fire at her.

Cat flew through the village only a few feet above the ground, in a hurry because she was most likely late. She had been late already, but when she saw her friends were nowhere to be seen in the village square, she thought must have missed them on the way in. She swerved around carts and livestock, often saying "Sorry! I'm in a hurry!" when she startled people. Though after looking at Cat a second time and seeing just how she was going so fast, most of them just started wide-eyed and open-mouthed. As soon as she rounded the last corner leading to the south fields, she spotted what she had been looking for. Everyone but Ari was there. Cat smiled and slowed into a graceful accent, so that she would literally drop in on them. Once she was directly above, she dropped off her sythe and quickly replaced it on her back before she got to the ground, landing like a cat on all fours.
"Hello everyone! Sorry I'm late! I kinda left last so..." She said while getting up.
((Cat rides her sythe like a broomstick, with the blade in the front and facing down. Like I have my avi right now. That was fun to write! I can just picture her tearing through the streets and scaring people. xD))

((it was the distance calculation and the accuracy calculation that he thought was showing off.))


Adun nodded to Skaro and said in a low voice so only Skaro could hear it "it's been that way for at least 10 years now hasn't it?" he rose his voice and said "I believe he was referring to you, Legretta was is? I could hear your thought and that was not my fastest I hope you know." In his mind, Adun slapped himself, he should not have revealed that he could, as his teacher had called it, enter minds and read the flow of though. Even worse was that Leretta would probably infer that he and Skaro could communicate like that given they seemed to know each other quite well. To ease his mind of worry he pulled out a thin black pipe and stuck it in his mouth. With his left hand, the right holding his bow, he twisted a little nob around the tip. it gave off a red light for a moment then smoke rose from inside, swaying in the air as if intoxicated and unable to rise properly.



((yes, I'm entwining blue and my pasts at least 10 years now, but everyone already guessed that it would be like that, hopefully))

Arietta stopped and watched Legretta walk by. Then she looked at the rest of the group who was still standing there, talking a bit. She began walking up to them, this time fully conscious of where she was and where she was going. She stopped about 10 feet short of joining the group, glanced at Cat, who hadn't noticed her yet, and walked the rest of the way shyly, tugging on Cat's sleeve once she got close enough.
"Cat? Who's the person in the black?" She whispered to Cat.
"I-I'm sorry that I'm late..! I got mixed up and went to the wrong place..." She said while looking down at a very interesting piece of dirt.
((I forgot little Ari! It didn't dawn on me until I looked at the top of the page and read the order of arrival! xD))

Adun almost laughed, enter her mind, he already had an open connection into all of their minds since he had heard their names, which he had extracted from Skaro. He knew he would have to conceal himself more, but then again, he could use her knowledge to his advantage. Reaching into her mind again, e entered the flow and then left, leaving a small bit of energy behind, like the dregs of a cup of tea. He knew that eventually she would become too paranoid of him and have to stop thinking altogether, and she didn't know what else he could do with his power, she was going to be fun to mess with. Now all that was left was to find somewhere to rest, inside would not do, a view of the stars would be best.

Legretta heard a stifled laugh. The archer. So he was a pervert. She felt the presence leave, but something was left behind. Not strong enough to be the archer himself... Legretta's ability rarely worked unless she was meditating. 'Mm... Should I or shouldn't I? Why not?' She shifted her position on the bed, so it would look like she was asleep to anyone who didn't know what she was doing. But since there wasn't a soul other than herself that knew of her ability, she had nothing to worry about. Legretta closed her eyes, and then began to use her ability. She stood up from the bed and looked back at her empty shell of a body. She smirked. There was a presence in her mind no longer. There was no possible way for the archer to get to her now. Legretta walked to the french window and opened it, leaping out and landing on the ground a story below after she had done so. Then she began looking for the archer. Legretta found him sleeping near the fields. Because he was asleep, and she had no body with with to speak or come in physical contact with, she gave him the equivalent of a mental shove and spoke to hime through the same method he and Skaro did. "Meet me at the entrance to the forest..." She whispered into his mind. And with that, Legretta snapped back to her body, jumped out the window once more, and began running-but not at full speed- to the forest.
((Okay-Shoxaju, don't enter into Legretta's mind while she's in her spirit form- that's her safe zone. She's like a ghost in this form, no one can see her unless she wants them to.))
