"Bait huh?" Kashi looked ahead to the bright flowers in the area before them. "I guess it's only fair I defend you from the pretty flowers." He joked.

He made his way forward and examined the lovely crystal Miasma flowers for a moment before reaching out to gather a few...

Almost immediately Kashi could feel them beginning to drain away energy from him. This wasn't going to be as 'easy' as the last task.

As Crispin marched up the bog turf, face furrowed in anger, ready to argue back with Alastair -- his voice suddenly curled up and died in his throat. He paused, staring at the two of them blankly.

"... What in the devil are you talking about?" he'd gone from full on anger to merely annoyance. Then, the more he stared, the more confused he became.

It was hard for Crispin to stay angry for long.

"Sir Huxley, why would..." a piece of swamp glop dripped from his hair. "Harland, surely he is delirious? With those wounds?"

But then Harland raised his arm to him. Harland was talking about this... this 'spanking.' Crispin glanced around, unable to meet anyone's eyes. "P-perhaps it should be Sir Huxley you need to aid. But yes, shall we, ah, continue?"

Harland wasn't lowering that arm. Could he really be rude and ignore the gesture?

"Truly, Harland," Crispin touched the edge of the other man's sleeve, taking his arm tentatively. "I have no wounds to speak of..."

He kept glancing embarrassedly over to Alastair as they walked, confused, but feeling oddly pleased about the attention he was getting.

(Entering from the Blue Kingdom.)

Gertrude didn't like this. Wasn't this her King she was going to be stealing from? It just didn't sit right with her. Whether the King was dead or alive, she felt horrible about it. Then again, if they all died, because they needed the miasma, that wouldn't be much better.

Gertrude didn't feel like doing deep pondering about the ways of the universe and morality, but wandering the labyrinth was perfect for just such an endeavor. Even if she didn't want it, she couldn't help but do it. This was mindrape. The King's labyrinth was raping her mind.

He grimaced at that, shaking his head at the man. He must have known there had to be more monsters, so... oh it wasn't worth arguing. "I doubt you know a good use for one." He, on the other hand, knew quite well how to place them on things for the best effect. Especially something that glittered as beautifully as a ruby...

It was actually quite tempting to pick a few seeing as he was sitting amongst them. So he sifted a bit, gingerly picking a few and feeling some of his remaining strength seeming to slip away as soon as the stem was plucked. He blinked a bit at that, sighing. He really was going to need to sleep for a week after all of this...

His left arm, and right leg are currently fairly torn up and bleeding. As well it looks like something bit his right forearm, but wasn't nearly as successful. He is also missing his right shoe.

The farther they walked from the stench of the bog, the more chilly and misty the air became. A faint fog swirled around Crispin's feet as he moved along the area. Brilliant red flowers began to appear on every dark surface and in the crack of every miasma filled crevice.

Relieved that Harland had let go of his arm for the moment, Crispin kept one eye on both of his friends, and the other on a swatch of flowers at his feet, worrying over their safety. He seemed the least scathed so far -- and he was ready at any time to protect them from something they might not be able to.

"They are quite beautiful," he muttered, bending down to fish up a few. The flowers themselves looked hardened, as though crystallized with some kind of resin. It reminded him of candied flowers he'd seen at market, once.

But that thought also coincided with Harland's sudden foul mood. Crispin turned around to watch the back of his friend.

"Harland?" he murmured, flowers nestled in his arms, which were still dripping with mud.

Now... now this was more like it! Olivia was elated at finally finding the field of flowers she had been told about, they were beautiful and she completely ignored the look of displeasure on those who were picking them.

It seemed having to fare through an ugly cesspool of sludge and death would bring someone to a field of beauty and flowers. Since escaping the destruction of the Silver Kingdom, Olivia finally managed a true and fair smile upon her face.

Her white haired companion was forgotten for a brief moment as she wandered over to one of the bushes and plucked two of them out. They were beautiful and red... and... huh, she felt a little funny. Like, some of her energy had been sipped away. She looked curiously at the red Miasma flowers, but then thought nothing of it.

"Not know of any good use for them?" Kashi grinned, despite starting to feel dizzy. "I do believe lovely flowers such as these could be used to woo equally as lovely creatures like yourself; in any other situation."

He placed a larger one next to Molan and continued to gather a few more for himself. He felt he could still carry more. He pick as many as he could before he could feel them taking their toll on him.

The purifier, or whatever it was at the end of the Labyrinth, seemed to be the final stage, and Madeline just about collapsed in front of it. Groaning, she hauled herself to her knees, and ignoring the life-sapping force of the flowers, grabbed a handful of them from her satchel and stuffed them into the purifier.

"If this doesn't work - " She groaned as her flowers went into the maw of the odd little mechanism. She was too tired to finish the rest of that sentence though.

Maybe it was time to start praying. Maybe.

"Portal me back any time, bitches." She grumbled when it was over. Thankfully, they did.

( Half of the Flowers = 9/2 = 4.5 rounded up to 5. Success! 5 x 2 = 10. )

The man he only finished carefully setting the few aside when he spotted the blue haired girl appearing. He was about to call out a bit of a warning until- too late. Well, they needed them anyway. She looked well enough. He shifted as if to sit up when Kashi's comment left him a bit frozen.

...he wasn't sure he liked being likened to a flower. It wasn't much better than being called a woman really. Still, the embarrassment showed on his face at the comment with a slight flush as he grabbed the flower along with a few other new ones. He'd slightly hoped the flower would have already done it's biting back, but it still took it's toll as he took another breath at the weary feeling that kept getting worse. "No. You braid them into hair, or lace a jewel one into a pin or brooch for effect." He replied as flat as possible, trying to brush off the comment. Though this wasn't the first 'endearing' term used. Wasn't there a 'love' bit earlier too right as they ran inside? ...did that mean another one? But this one knew he was a guy at lea- ...seriously. This day couldn't be more complicated.

Two didn't seem like it would be enough, for anything really. Even if it was simple flower picking, it would be a rather pitiful amount. For a task such as gathering miasma for the Blue Kingdom, a lot more seemed like it would be needed. But how many would be enough was a completely mystery.

Olivia took one in hand and plucked it out, once again feeling the mild effect as she had with her first pickings. Given it was one versus two, it didn't pack as much of a punch but it was slowly beginning to add up. She rested her fingers against the petals of another flower, pondering her earlier inquiry before picking her head up and looking around.

Maybe she could guess how many by how many others were picking. It was a little hard to tell with how many backs were to her, but with those facing her she could see their tired eyes but their bundles of flowers - perhaps some close to a dozen. Huh.

It was then, also, when she spotted the white haired man. Picking flowers with another man ... and looking a little worse for wear. So, he was still here. Plucking her forth flower, and shaking off the effects, she made her way over to him.

"Oh, you're still here." She greeted. "What happened?"

AJ bounced, towards the next zone. There was no further path for him to go. However, there was a crystal purifier. AJ picked the flower from his ear, looked at it and thought it was used to purified the tainted flowers. The young Tiefling bounced towards the altar, though he felt he was getting more and more tired. He took the flowers from his pockets, got the three from his belt and grabbed the one which was on his ear on his hand. All the eight flowers were there.

He put the flower in it at once, but he waited and waited, the flowers just disappeared or you can say they melted.

"WHATTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT?" He dug through the whole altar completely, just not turning it over yet.

The Tiefling was so unhappy, he spent so much time on this ruin and got nothing?! Ofelia was gonna kill him, not to imagine how the King will view him as. That was such an awful day for him. He left the labyrinth empty handed, with his tail stroking the ground so hard that big cracks were formed along his way.

AWFUL.

Olivia looked curiously at the other gentleman with her Silver friend. Was ... that the scarf she sold him for the barrette that she was holding under her headscarf for safe keeping?

Hm. She plucked another flower.

"I don't enjoy having my hair braided." Kashi tucked the flowers safely into the sash and yawned boredly. "You don't have to pick all the flowers! Don't overdo it."

Kashi's attention soon turned to the newcomer. Not of Gold Kingdom, of that much he was certain. She knew Molan...

'Must be another who feld Silver Kingdom' He mused. She was also gathering flowers. 'She must of fallen 'Molan style' into a different Kingdom.'

"Well hello." Kashiyoru rested his chin on Molans shoulder and grinned at the girl. Though the grin seemed void of any real 'cheer'.

He quirked a brow at the other not sure how it could be a negative thing. Then again, he was so accustomed to having it braided it felt wrong to leave it loose at this point. So really, he couldn't imagine it. As to the comment, he merely grabbed too more in a bit of a huff at that, flinching at the sudden weariness again. "I am perfectly... perfectly fine." Well obviously not, he was bleeding, a mess, and not sure how many more of these he could take. But he wasn't quite done. He wasn't about to be outdone by that ma-

Who now had his chin on his shoulder. Around the time Olivia had walked over to greet him the other fellow had inched over and suddenly been there. Receiving a look that clasically said 'what are you doing?' before he gazed back to the girl. "Ah... just resting a bit and collecting flowers. It seems you made it through well." To her comment he merely smiled slightly and glanced off. "A few... creatures. I will live."

Who-wha. "Hello," Olivia greeted back in a mousey manner, reverting a little back into herself from just watching the two. She had only known the white haired man for only so long, never even knowing his name, but she could always feel a pit forming in her stomach. Like she had already been replaced by him. The way the two were sitting together, the way that other man was draping himself on Molan. They were already so close.

She almost had that, it had slipped through her fingers. The man who had tried to protect her had already moved on and she didn't know if she should be angry or sad or jealous or even just every emotion. But she held it in, like a good little Silver. Molan had adapted ... and changed and found a place - even if he did totally probably give her sash to that guy! She had to as well, it was how they were as a Kingdom.... even though it was totally gone now.

"Not too badly," she address Molan, now avoiding all and every kind of eye contact with the other guy. "At least the trials of the other passage brought us here, it's pretty." She forced a smile, taking a few steps back from the two men and plopped herself down in front of a small patch of flowers. Why didn't she have anything to offer him for his ails? Maybe she could win his favor back then!

Urg, why was she acting like this. Olivia pouted as she plucked a few more flowers, growing more disappointed in how weak she was feeling.
