Blukattt pauses while staring into the fire before him. A brief shadow of puzzlement furrows his brow, and he looks up to the clouds.
"Hmmm, there is about to be a great change...to another clan...?"
While looking up into the sky, he catches a glimpse of lightning, in the direction of the Thunder Clan.
"Ahh, it would be our cousins. I wonder what will happen..."
He places his hands upon the ground, sending back the earth's energies he was channeling to meditate. After, he rises slowly, stretching after several hours of remaining motionless. Picking up his staff, he follows the path up and out of the canyon, to perch upon the top of the cliff above the village.

A crippling pain shoots into blukattt's back, sending him crashing to his knees. He looks around, and all he sees are shadows engulfing the entire canyon.
"Agggh....wha..t the...?!"
He attempts to concentrate, drawing up earth energy to subside the pain, so that he may seek his vision.
He closes his eyes, and sees an earth clan member, clutching a knife and standing over him...upon closer inspection he realizes that it is neovladd, and in his other hand he is holding a shadowed object, too dark to identify.
He releases the vision, and drops to the ground completely exhausted.
"neovladd...why have you betrayed our trust...?"

Ben walks out of his building to find his leader above him on the cliffs. Couriously, he walked through the canyon to reach the leader.
Once he got closer to his leader, he notice that he was in pain. He ran over to blukattt and attempts to pick him up.
"Sir, what is wrong?" He asked with worry.

After a moment, blukattt gets to his feet, looking notably better, but more concerned.
"I have recieved a vision; I fear one of our clan has done something very rash and foolish...I must ask a favor of you. Go to the Shadow Clan and find out what has happened. As a shaman, I needn't remind you of our peaceful nature; respect their customs, learn what has happened, and come back and tell me what has transpired. Will you do this for our clan?"

"I will try, you must not forget, I'm a shaman in training."
Ben left after he was sure his leader was ok, then left for the task.

Tyler walked into the Headquarters of the Earth clan with a nervous smile on his face. He didn't know anyone in the clan and he was nervous. He looked around and took in the beauty of the wilderness around him.
"Nice place..."

TaiBaiWong Tyler walked into the Headquarters of the Earth clan with a nervous smile on his face. He didn't know anyone in the clan and he was nervous. He looked around and took in the beauty of the wilderness around him. "Nice place..."
"Hmm, a new member of the tribe...I should get down there and welcome him." he says to himself, chuckling mischieveously.
Blukattt leaps off the cliff, staff in hand, plummeting towards the ground a short distance in front of the new member. While falling, he chants an ancient mantra to protect both himself and the earth. He lands on the ground with a thunderous sound that echoes through the canyon, cracking the very earth in a 10 foot radius. He looks up and smiles at the new one, as he does so the cracks in the earth seal up, as if they never were.
"Greetings, you must be our new warrior in training, the stones told me of your arrival. I am blukattt, leader of the Earth Clan and tribal shaman. Please, feel welcome and at peace here, as this is home."

To say that Tyler was not surorised by the sudden entrance would be untrue. He moved back so he would avoid the cracking of the earth.
"Yeah I'm the warrior in training....um...hello my name is Tyler."
Tyler heard a faint whispering sound and then nodded.
"Oh and the ground says that you might want to be a little more careful...it dosen't like being cracked open...."

Blukattt raises an eyebrow at the mention of the earth speaking to Tyler.
"Ahh, you know stonespeak! Then my friend, you are indeed home!"
Blukattt pats him on the back and gestures for him to follow.
"Come, I will show you some of the places in the village that will be handy to you. Hope you don't mind climbing, as you can see this is a cliff village."
He then turns and proceeds to walk up the narrow zigzagging path up to the village. (See first page to get an idea of what the village looks like, if you haven't already. wink ))

Tyler smiled and followed blukattt through the streets of the town.
"Actually I can commune with all of nature...it's kind of nice..."
He looked up to the roof of the cliff and blinked. It was an intresting feat of arcitecture. It looked like even the harshest rain storm couldn't penetrate through the roof.
"So how did this city get formed? I mean...it must have taken years to build it."

"Correct; the village has stood the test of time for centuries, through rough weather, clan wars... that's why the ancients chose this place. The cliff, the canyon, in fact the whole mountain is blessed. It is centered on a power point, an area where several ley lines converge."
He leans in closer, bringing his voice to a whispered volume.
"Some day I shall have to show you the tunnel system; there are not many that know of them, but as a warrior it would be in your best interest to learn them well."
He gives Tyler a knowing wink, then turns and continues up the rest of the way.

"Wow...That is amazing!"
Tyler then walked with him and nodded, "Yeah I think it would be a good idea to know about those at some point."
He smiled looking around the city. "Earth clan looks like a place full of hospitality. I can't wait to meet more people."
