As Minstrel sets his hoof on the southeastern cheetah stone, the southernmost cheetah stone on the west side of the obelisk begins to glow. For any kin who were observing, the eastern cheetah stone goes dormant - as though it had never glowed. For the current leg, you must count to 15. Otherwise, the rules are the same as for the previous leg. When the group has collectively reached the goal number of 15, there will be another GM post. You have thirty OOC minutes from when 1 is posted. Good luck!

Half Truth nods at Wildflower Breeze. "Don't strain yourself too much- after this, we still have to get home."

Roses in Bloom mentioned at the wince of home. But then... they were all out here trying, weren't they? No sense in stopping now.

Dew Drop Sun hopped her excitement as they reached the next stone, "We did it!" She skipped a bit to the side, keeping her legs warm and catching her breath before turning back to find the next path and getting herself going at another run.

Half Truth shifts her path to get next to Rose. Knowing that they're on the right path, she leans over to gently chuck her mate on the shoulder, a silent gesture that simply says "we're ok. we're out here together and we're gonna be ok."

"I know," Rose breathed in reply, offering Half Truth a bright smile. She was tired, certainly... but the whole thing was rather thrilling. They'd tell this story for long after their task was completed, exhausting as it was.5

Dew Drop Sun was powering through to the next stone, and enjoying it more than she could say. "Isn't this so much fun?" She called out to the kin around her, not entirely caring what their answer was -- she, at least, was having a ball.

"Don't worry if you need to rest," Half Truth said softly, so that the others couldn't hear. Just Rose. "We're in this together, and if you need to rest, it'll be fine."

"Rest! I'm not THAT old!" Rose huffed indignantly, though still in good humor. The gesture was sweet, and she appreciated it. But this was the stuff legends were made of. No way was she sitting out.
"I can keep up. I promise."

"Fun and exciting and new!" Minstrel answers Dew Drop Sun. Grinning he skips from stone to stone.

Glad to find a kindred spirit, Dew hopped to reach Minstrel and flash him a grin before gathering speed again. "This is the most exciting setting I've ever had for a race!"

Half Truth stuck her tongue out. "Fine then, foxy grandma. Try and keep up!" She pulled ahead, just a little, smiling back at her love. She hoped they remembered this part in the legends- how gorgeous Rose's hair looked in the sun. She'd certainly remember it.

With a snort, Rose barreled forward to catch up to Half Truth. It wasn't that she was old, exactly... just oldER than Half Truth. Which was an exciting challenge. Especially now, trying not to laugh on this glorious adventure.

"Race huh? Why not leap frog? Or a leap frog race!" Minstrel replies to Dew Drop Sun, his grin widening. With a whoop he hops as fast as possible and still he mindful of the stones.

Dew Drop Sun gave a curious look, "Leap frog?" She'd never considered the option, surely not as a race. But as Minstrel hopped ahead of her, she laughed, "That seems like a fun alternative." She adjusted her own steps and began to leap after him, careful of her steps and trying to keep up with the pace of the others.
