Oqaia X-Men Lover DeArca smiled, nodding as he used his hands like visual aids, giving the same descriptions of Illyana as he did just before. "Have you seen a girl like that? she's my age, and neck's length to me. Please tell me anything you know of....I....I just have to find her" He asked, a sad frown coming to his lips. The priest's expression was dry and noncomprehending for a while, then... a glimmer of recognition, followed by a nod. "It sounds like the Crystallaureate." He pointed the direction of the crowd- towards the Gardens. "When you reach the gardens, and a priest or priestess escorts you away from the inner circles, just ask them to take you to teh Crystallaureate." The Crystallaureate?....What a mouthful...but that was the key to Illyana. "Then I'm going to the gardens with the others. From there, I'll go to the Crystallette..." he said, getting the entire word wrong, but no doubt the priest knew what he meant. With a break, doubling back around, he followed the others slowly towards the gardens. I'm coming Illyana....I'm coming

Oqaia Susa laughed, agreeable. "I don't quite know how I did it, either- except, right then I knew I... could. I suppose it was a gift for breaking the curse. Both to me, with a burst of my old magic... and one for you." She beamed. "Now... we'll go to find your daughter." She tucked her flute in the leather belt around her dank colored dress, and went off through the crowd looking for the leopard.

He watched the man go, and then disappeared himself, into the crowd.

Remove dress, and went off through the crowd looking for the leopard. Susa waited, but seemed surprised by Heather's words. "They don't... get along? But they're siblings. She's his sister. I don't understand."

Heather looked at Amkia who was sulking and rolled her eyes. He just grows up and is already sulking? Geesh!
"Kala is well... dominating, a leopard, solitary and cunning. She isn't exactly erm.. happy with anyone very deceptive. Amkia is more angelic, as you may be able to tell. Kala is I guess demonic, she has been compared to the most evil fortuentte to ever live, so yeah. They don't get on." She tried to smile but it was somewhat weak. She didn't think Kala would be too happy with Amkia growing and her not but Heather couldn't do anything about it.

Oqaia "There is nothing wrong with naivety, my child. It's a precursor to greatness, more often than not." He smiled a grandfatherly, loving smile- though he couldn't have been more than five or so years older than Mirela. "This festival is a celebration... to surround the point upcoming, which is when the Spirit of our Saviour, the bearer of the great White Magic of our Sect... will choose its bearer- it's mother."

Sizzla "Thank you. I'll be back."
With that, she turned and took off through the crowd of people, keeping her eyes on the flash of green she saw here and there. Finally, she neared the boy, and came up behind him, tapping him lightly on the shoulder. "Um, excuse me," she said quietly, waiting for the boy to turn around. "Are you from the Honeyblossom caravan? Crick's son?"
Kalpana sniffed at the boy, curious about him. She'd never seen anyone quite like him before. The badger pulled up on Irina's arm, wanting to get a better view of the boy. She seemed to recognize that he was a Fortunette as well. Corman smiled, though he seemed a little startled. "Um, yeah. I mean, yes ma'am, I am."

M i s s a "Well," she fished the strange object out of her purse. "My Banya left this for me." she paused, noticing the frailty of the Filor's breathing. "Are you weak?" she asked softly. "Isn't it hard to stay above the water for so long?" "Oh, I'll be fine. After the ...ceremony, we head for the river. I'll just celebrate from the water." She smiled, thanking Marissa for the concern. She peered through the slats of the cart at the wooden carved heart. "That looks like a Woodland Heart. It compells Earth Elements to come to you."

(sorry, so excited, I just gotta post)
"Gardens? Gardens?" He asked himself, looking around in a panic. The others were far too spreaded out so it was hard to figure out who to follow. "I should've asked the priest for directions, Ash!" He said, looking around again. Ash however was feeling himself petted by a woman behind DeArca and squeaked. When the woman left, Ash crawled around in a few circles for a moment.
DeArca stood what seemed to be a gazebo, so he did what he had to to find his way....he climbed on top of it. No doubt that was rude, so he covered his eyes with a sigh and climbed back down. "I'm acting like a fool. I need to think" he said. However, Ash did what he wanted to do while thinking....play! He jumped off DeArca's shoulder and ran away, causing DeArca to panic. "Ash! No!" he said.
Ash squeaked happily, knowing DeArca was chasing behind him as he scurried through the many feet that were surrounding him. What a wonderful game...Ash had to challenge his cunning and agility to stay ahead of DeArca. But, Dearca would not allow this to happen much longer. He found a pocket in between two people and shot forward, grabbing the mouse as he looked around. "Got you....now where are we?" he asked, seeing flowers and many women. Where did Ash take him. "Priestess, where is this place?" He asked, approaching her.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to scare you. I've just heard that his son is a frog Fortunette, and I've been looking for him." She gave him a smile and patted Kal on the head.
"I was told to seek out your father, though I'm not sure why. It probably has something to do with my daughter here, Kalpana. She's a Fortunette like you."

I don't think your daughter could be demonic. You and your son are so good. Evil is not drawn to goodness. I'm sure she just needs guidance. In fact, when I am together with my sisters, I am sure we can help. It's miserable to have siblings that do not share the most beautiful type of love. Now... are we ready to look?"

Xpressionless Mirela appeared to brighten further at the priests words, relieved that being informed about such a spectacular event wasn’t so dire. “That certainly sounds most important, and incredibly fantastical” the gypsy replied, smiling for a moment before pausing to gnaw upon her lower lip. “How does the Spirit chose it bearer, mother? Will she be special in some way? A member of your Sect or someone who possesses great magic or skill?” The question tumbled thick and fast, Mirela inhaling sharply as the words finished and clinging tighter to Tafari’s hand as she felt the boy pulling away from her and toward the crowd. "No... the mother is never a member of our Sect. We have devoted ourselves to the service of the Spirit... but it requires a mother, an upbringing. This we could not give. How could we ever tell the child no, or to discipline it, our Savior? No, for this task... it chooses a very special woman. One who possesses... something it seeks." The priest's eyes were moist. "It's a beautiful thing to behold."

Heather smiled, though it would be nice to see the two get on it didn't seem right for Kala. "Maybe.."
She looked at Amkia and knelt to his level. "Look, you are bigger then her, alot bigger and you have wings mister. You could fly away from her, you can fly with Secra!" it worked Amkia smiled and nodded.
"Yes we are ready to look." At last...This was turning out to be a rather dramatic stay.

"Priestess, where is this place?" He asked, approaching her. The priestess looked at the man, and gave him little reverence- he was, obviously, no Candidate. But she did answer his question. "We're a little whiles away from the Gardens. You'll know when we're there." Then she spotted the little mouse. "Oh, and by the way... for that little one, you're going to want to bless it with whiteberry wine when you get to the festival." Then the priestess disappeared back into the crowd. ((Just fyi, you can't manipulate yourself into the Gardens. You'll know when we're there. ^_^))

"Oh... she must have come from the Marsh. Dad's a big Marsh Fan." Corman called out to his left. "DAAAAAAD!" It was a croaking, hideously loud noise. A tall man looked up over the heads with a scowl on his face. "Why bellow?" Corman shrugged. "This lady wants to see you. She's been looking for you." Crick looked for the woman in question, only to see Irina... and smile. He ducked back into the throng and was near them in a few seconds. "Hello," he said, standing next to the son who looked nothing like him. "You were looking ... for me?"
