Welcome to Gaia! ::

[ Izzy : Deku Mine : B1 ]

"Shall I get the door for you, madame? Izzy asked with a laugh before he ran to the door. He lifted it up a bit and threw it open, allowing for Felin to pass through; for some reason, it stayed open longer than usual. "Hm... Maybe I broke it?"

Knowing she would follow quickly enough, he walked toward the edge of the Southern land mass, staring at the one situated to the West. There was the door which had recently been made available, what with the bars rising after Akin lit the torches. It was the only place they hadn't gone so far, so it was the obvious choice. He jumped into the water and started swimming to what he thought was surely their final door.

When Phyela opened the chest, she found within it...

A RED RUPEE! That's twenty rupees! Don't spend it all in one place!

((About time I made an Izzy post, eh?
And I'm not sure if the red ones are the twenty-rupees.... It's been too long since I've played a Zelda game.
*is shot by the rest of the guild*

And that's all for now, everybody! *poofs like a ninja*))

[[Finally edited my previous Phyela post]]

[ Phyela : Beneath the Well : B1 ]

Phyela was a bit let down. She was amped up to find something a little more...useful. But hey, free money was cool too. Except she and Luke almost lost their lives in this room, so it wasn't exactly free.
Sliding down the vines and shaving more leaves off, she stuffed the rupee in her pocket before walking back to the hole. Her ice bridge gave way after she crossed back over, indicating she dispersed the magic in it before grabbing her robe and throwing it back on. She jumped into the hole left by Luke, only to find a long, broken tunnel. She assumed the boy made it, as she could hear sounds echoing from within the tunnel, and followed their direction. As she went, though, she could tell there was a difference partway through in the walls, as if Luke somehow found a large bust of energy and plowed ahead, as the first area was a little cleaner, more claw marks evident in the soil-like substance. "Luke?" she called, her voice echoing. "Luke, is everything alright?"



[ Felin : Deku Mine : B1 ]

Felin slowly made her way through the door, which slammed behind her once she entered the main room. She lazily looked back. It's like the whole place is...expecting us.
Her attention was turned to the western door, and she pulled out the map again. It didn't seem to have any details in the upcoming room, while the others they had visited were all filled in and detailed.She passed it off as simply lack of detail on the mapmaker's part, and put it back in her pocket. She looked at the river, giving a sour face. "Great, more water." she muttered and sighed. Slipping in and slowly making her way across, she heaved herself out only to find where pain was still resonating. "Oh Farore, this is horrible!" Standing up, she looked at Izzy with a kind smile. "Care to do the honors, you strong boy, you?" she playfully teased.

[ Izzy : Deku Mine : B1 ]


Izzy gave Felin a soft pat on the shoulder when she climbed out of the water. When she asked him to open the door, he nodded and hurried over to comply. He was worried about her in this condition, and didn't want her to strain herself. He struggled with the door a bit before sliding it up and open, and held it up for her to pass through.

When the two Hylians cross through the doorway, they will find themselves in a room a bit smaller than the previous one. There is another wide pool of water dividing the land into North and South patches. There is nothing to be found on the Southern patch, where they enter, but there is a treasure chest several feet beneath the water. It is inaccessible at this time, but on the Northern patch of land, there is a lever that lowers the water level on this entire floor. This lever is hidden behind a wall of diggable rock, however, and cannot be seen yet. What CAN be seen on the Northern piece of land, are two Sand Crab monsters, walking sideways here and there in an odd pattern. These will prove a nuisance, and should be gotten rid of before attempting to dig through the wall.

There is also a door on the left wall, but it is also under the water, and inaccessible.

[ Felin : Deku Mine : B1 ]

Felin limped through the doorway Izzy held open for her, Akin slowly fluttering above the Kokiri girl. The tentacle-like monsters were new, but their slow, random movements suggested they could be killed easily. She tried to dig out her sword, but pain flared through her right arm.
Akin spoke up, "Felin! You're not strong enough to fight yet! Let Izzy deal with them!" He expected the boy to give a shifty glance in the fairy's direction, but who else could they rely on?
Felin didn't listen, much less hear the fairy. She attempted to stab one of the tentacle monsters, bringing her blade down, but once she planted the steel in the creature, she didn't have the strength to pull it back out. The creature, on the other hand, took notice and began using the tentacles to try and suck Felin's arm in, most likely attempting to munch on a snack. Felin screamed and shook her arm furiously, but the creature wouldn't let go. "Get it off! Get it off!" she screamed in a rather high pitch, and began to dance around. Subconsciously, she stepped on something, which pressed down under the weight of her foot, before planting it in the "mouth" of another tentacle monster.
"These are Popos." Akin said, "They try to snack on anything that falls where they can pick it up with their limbs."
"That's great, get them off!" Felin shouted. She stumbled some more, her other foot falling into a third Popo, which made her topple over and, by coincidence or not, land on the fourth, which clung to the wounds on her side. She screamed in pain, but suddenly, the pain began to dissipate. Her agony soon turned to curiosity, as she wondered just what they were doing to her.
After a while, the Popos let go, each gave a small burp, and continued their course.
Felin looked down at her body, hands, and legs. The large gashes and scars from the blade traps seemed to dissapear, though there was still a few small traces. "What the..."
Akin flew up to her, "One thing not many know is they have curative properties."



[ Phyela : Beneath the Well : B1 ]

"Luke?" Phyela asked. She heard him say something, but the echoes distorted it, so she had to decipher the words. She believed he had said he finished digging, so she nodded to herself and tried to climb the rocky surface, chunks falling off every so often. They must've been loosened from Luke,'s efforts. Soon enough, she made her way out of the hole and saw him holding the door open. Again. She gave him a kind smile, same as before, as she walked into this new room. The first thing that caught her eye was the wall on the opposite side, guarded by a couple of crabs. Since it was made of the dirt that Luke's mysterious mitts could dig through, she devised a plan. "Hm. I'll take care of the crabs while you dig through that." she pointed at the wall. "Sound fair?" she then made a cannonball intothe water, not caring about getting wet at this point, since there seemed to be water wherever they went. Although something caught her eye, and bruised her rump at the same time. Looking down at it, she saw a treasure chest and snapped her fingers, though the water muted out the noise. She surfaced, and turned around to climb onto the north patch with the crabs. Quickly, she whipped out her wand and fired a tornado of ice particles at one of them.
However, it quickly darted off to the left, avoiding her attack, before returning to its slower gait of moving forward and backward. Phyela tried again, and this time, it moved to the right. The witch scratched her head. These things were too fast for her magic, it seemed. Maybe a different approach was in order.

[[Felin's scene came on the fly; decided to give the Popos a sort of leech/phoenix tear *koffharrypotterkoff* thing]]

[ Phyela : Beneath the Well : B1 ]

Phyela heard what sounded lik water draining, so she looked over her shoulders to see that the small river that was there before was completely gone. She smiled, "Nice one Luke! All the water's gone!"
A shove of the crabs as one came right up close to her reminded the witch of her duty. Well, if focused ice blasts didn't work, how about a spread? The witch readied her staff, stepping to one end of the small plateau and fired a steady stream of ice. She then made a dash to the other side, the stream following as best it could, which, to her suspicions, froze both the crabs in place. Now she could finish them off.
Walking towards one of them, which was closer to the edge, she touched it with a single finger, the tip glowing blue. The crab slowly froze inside out, and Phyela gave it a whack with her staff, reducing it to shards. As for the other, it was closer to the dirt wall Luke dug through. She applied the same procedure, and then gave it a whack as well, the shards making a minor explosion from the force of her wand.
She gave a proud stance, and heaved a sigh. "Well, that takes care of that."

[ Felin : Deku Mine : B1 ]

"Yeah," Felin grabbed Izzy's hand. She turned around, looking at the other odd enemies.They looke like the Popos, except had a green hue, and the way they bounced suggested they were more aggressive. Felin let the Popos be, and proceeded to deal with the new ones...
When suddenly one lauched itself at her! She had to guard with her sword, but even then, that wasn't enough. They weighed more than they looked. "Izzy!" she sliced at the beast, knocking it back and then guarding with her sword. "Don't take these lightly!" She kept stabbing and slicing at it, but it just didn't seem to die! Felin was quickly losing breath, strength, and patience. These were strong, she gave them that, but they needed to be killed if they were to attempt at opening the chest they guarded.
She had pushed the one she was attacking close to the rear wall, which attracted the attention of the second. The first leapt at her, in which she guarded, but the other one managed to make it's way around the chest, and also leapt at the Kokiri girl, knocking into the sword, and throwing her off balance. She took a couple steps back, haphazardly slashng at whichever came at her. She was tiring quickly, despite her heals from the Popos. "Izzy, see if your slingshot works!"

[[If I remember right, Ropas were a b***h to kill, especially when you had low level armor and weapons. This is reflected in the fight here.]]

[ Izzy : Deku Mine : B1 ]


Izzy fit another Deku Seed into the Yellow Jacket and launched it at the second Ropa that Felin had attacked. He kept firing seeds, and it didn't seem to notice at first, but eventually it turned and started hopping menacingly toward him.

"Just don't get close to it or let it touch you, and you should be fine," Haelo said, flying in panicked circles around his head. "These things deal quite a lot of damage."

"But I have to get closer! I have to help Felin!" Izzy shot another seed at the approaching monster, and it fell down a bit before vanishing in a puff of smoke. He took in a few deep breaths, trying to calm himself, then ran toward his friend, pulling back on his slingshot. "Get away from her!" he commanded, though he knew the monster wouldn't listen. He shot the seed, and it hit, but the creature wasn't down yet.

One more to go...
