Ryan had come and gone, and Marosa was left with his choice. Where Ryan had failed, he might succeed? He stared at the flowers that were in his hand, and took a breath, about to decide. The Ganerie felt a bit of pity for Ryan - he'd given his all, more than what Marosa could ever give, due to his lack of strength, and ended up with nothing. How could he ever fare against that? Perhaps with luck?
About to fling his decision to the wind, he stopped on seeing Sharra arrive.
"Hey!" He cried out, brightening instantly as he grinned through his beat-up self, wings fluttering behind him as he attempted to jump up and down, only managing a small hop. "Oi hafta admit, et's gud tae see yer face." The Ganerie noticed that the other was rather beat up all to hell, and grimaced at the other's condition.
"Ye dinnae look so hot." He blinked. "Oi mean... yer hot and all, but... that's nae what oi meant." Marosa colored slightly, staring at the ground, feeling more the idiot. He must have been more damaged than he thought, getting delirious and spouting off words that were meant to never be said aloud.
He fiddled with his arm as he fought to remain unflustered, finally producing the bunch of flowers he held in his hand. "Oi tink we should go halfies," the Ganerie stated. "Ryan dinnae do so well. Oi'm just tinkin, oi'm nae as good as he is, so what kin oi hope tae accomplish..." Marosa spoke honestly, trailing off as his shoulders slumped.

Kashi was enjoying his spot, until he realized the sudden weakness in is gut was from the combined draining of both his and Molan's flowers.
"I think you have more than enough." He sat upright, suddenly. "Anymore and you'll drain us both dry."
"It's time to move on." He nodded to the cute girl and gently, yet firmly, pulled Molan to his feet. "No 'if's', 'and's' or 'but's'."

Something seemed off, her expression, while not normally the most cheery since earlier, had become more distant? Or perhaps hurt? He wasn't entirely sure, but brows knitted slightly at her reply as she drew back and sat down. Had he offended he- ah... right. He glanced at Kashiyoru, frowning a bit. It was his fault, he still had the sash. She was likely a bit offended someone else had it, right? That he'd traded away her work so quickly?
Little did she know he was actually here to get it back.
"It is quite lovely..." He mumbled, idly plucking at a few flowers as he waited, seeming not to notice just how many he had due to the concern. Thankfully, someone else had to a degree. Kashi's sudden interruption kept him from grabbing a fourth to add as he was pulled up, nearly dropping some along the way. Though he did manage to catch them all as he cast a look up. "Ah- I-" Well it wasn't an if or but? Still he glanced back at the somewhat forlorn looking Olivia, frowning sadly. "Ah... I suppose... we're going. If you need me, I will be ahead. Just call? My name is Molan." Right, so she could do that much, hopefully she'd fell better?
He cast a look at Kashi as he managed to regain some balance, forcing himself to keep up despite his leg hurting as they moved on.

Noticing another cluster of flowers nearby, Crispin discreetly nudged them with the toe of his boot. The ones he were carrying seemed to be getting heavier by the moment... or perhaps he was finally getting tired.
He fished a few more up off the ground absently with his free hand, still uneasily watching Harland's back, and wondering what to say in the silence between the three of them.

Kashiyoru could see an alter a bit of a ways away. 'That has to be were we need to tak--' His thoughts were cut off as he suddenly hit one knee. Dizzy and more tired than usual. He wondered, for a moment, if it might be the combination of all the flowers he an Molan wer--
"Molan." His voice was quiet, and carried with it a tone of worry. He shifted his weight and turned as far as he could manage to face the other male. If Molan was going to collapse as well, Kashi would be there to catch him. Dizzy or not.

Thankfully after a bit it seemed that Kashiyoru had realized it was a bit rude to drag him so quickly. He wasn't doing well to move that fast on his leg, and the flowers weren't helping.
Hell, he'd dropped one at this point after another look. Only eleven left. Well it was still as many as the gold citizen. He wasn't about to be outdone. He somehow felt an excuse would be made to keep the sash if he didn't keep up. But it was probably a bad idea to keep up, as suddenly a wave of exhaustion, almost emptiness hit him. He stumbled forward a pace as his body took the sudden impact of how tiring carrying the flowers had been, how much of a pull it was taking on his body at that point.
His name wasn't registered as he he wobbled at the second step, temporarily losing sight of the world in a haze as he slipped forward toward the ground. It really was a bit too much, all the events and the sudden hit, he just needed to rest for a moment. It wasn't as if he was out, just... to dazed to even realize he was there.
Hell, he could almost hear the sound of another market day like nothing had happened going by. Right, everything was fine, perfectly... fine. So why was his head throbbing... no everything. Everything absolutely hurt. "...where..?" His bearings, he had to get them again, and... probably figure out why he wasn't standing any longer. Well hopefully he hadn't fallen on a rock, he didn't think he'd survive even a light push at this point.

He'd collected so many flowers that they were starting to pile up in his arms. He cradled a small mountain of them in both hands, the bottoms muddied from where the swamp was still drying on his arms.
Still, he could wiggle his fingers for a little more, and he could fit a few more beneath his chin. Crispin would gather as absolutely many as he possibly could carry. Kneeling slowly, he gently inched a few in a nearby wall crevice away from the other foliage, peeling the crystallized blooms into what little space his palms still had.
"Seems the strain of all this adventure is finally taking its toll on me," Crispin muttered under his breath, as he felt more weary than ever in this peaceful, misty area.

Sayid, with his armload of flowers was already heading for the exit, looking more drained than when he'd entered, but pleased with himself in spite of the mud. Although he couldn't remember the other seeker more than a glimpse in the market, it was still nice to know other people had safely made it out, and he gave her a brief wave as he moved on to the next quadrant.
...And felt more exhausted. With every step he felt more weary, and he was jealous of the strange creatures who didn't seem to be the least taxed. The arm load of flowers suddenly felt more like an arm load of mill stones, and he felt as though things just outside his vision were spinning and tilting, though here it wouldn't have surprised him if they actually were. It was highly disorienting though. Was this actually an improvement on engaging in battle of the kind bards sang about? He wasn't so sure at this point.

(starting HP 32/50)
[Exit to sector D for reals this time] Acerium's smile grew wider. "Oh great! That would be great too, meeting up with people, making sure they are doing okay..." Ow. She frowned on her bouquet. "Though we should probably move on... I wonder whats next..." She walked with the other woman as they left the flower area behind. "You know... I... well, nevermind it's nothing." She thought better of what she was about to say as her flowers suddenly became a mess of PAIN. She yelped as she buckled under their sudden painful weight. SHE DIDNT DROP ANY NO SIR. THEY WERE FLOWERS. She managed to struggle back to her feet. "Oh OW." She looked around at this new area... "Maybe we're close."

Cee glanced back at Roar with a grin, "She just don't talk much."
Snapjust gave Roar a bit of a shrug. Perhaps she didn't have much of consequence to say? Or perhaps maybe Cee said enough for the both of them.
And then of course Jerry went running off into the bog. Concetta stood on the edge looking very displeased with it. It wasn't that she was a priss, but she'd just gotten these nice clothes.
"Snap!" She actually snapped her fingers and the green lipped woman was by her side. With almost no words exchanged, Cee was swept into the taller woman's steely arms. The truth was that Snap was unnaturally strong, especially in the arms, her forte being a bit of strangulation here and there.
As Snap calmly walked them through the swamp, Cee waved cheerfully at everyone struggling in the muck. She kicked her legs like a girl as her companions leg's were bitten and stung by the fauna.

As she got further, Solia groaned as the flowers did what flowers do. Hurt. (just not her feels). She kept singing about asses. At least that didn't hurt. Dumping the bloom she sighed and kept singing, all she could do really.

The tall hedges became more sparse as the boy progressed into the maze, replaced with barren sticks of trees, their boughs crowned with moss instead of leaves. He felt himself sinking into the earth. Soon it was not grass up to his knees, but filthy bog water leaving dark ribbons of sludge on his pale skin. He thought he felt something under the water brush his leg. Did it cut him?
No matter, he was on a mission for his King.
