Welcome to Gaia! ::

((sounds like somebody needs a time out..))

( eek sweatdrop WEll, there is reason..... sweatdrop I couldn't play WoW 'cause "technical difficulties" and then I was cleaning with my mom so I wasn't oin Gaia very much this weekend.... sweatdrop )

* Cat woke later with a strange, muddled, lost feeling in her brain. She shook her had a few times to remove it, and still feeling mentally full of cobwebs and uneasy, sat up and looked at Myth. Smiling, she waved her hand and made up a soft pallet next to the fire. Gently picking him up and settling him on the soft bedding, she restoked the fire and covered him loosely, then left something for dinner for him in plain sight. She leaned over and nuzzled his ears and dropped a kiss between them, then got up and went down to the temple to catch back up with Esben and the other visitors taking a pack with her. She smiled as she got down to the great bear, and pulled copying materials from her pack, and started making copies of the runes and pictograms, along with a complete translation from Esben. She finished the first copy in good time, and decided to make another for Myth, knowing that the markings would be wiped from the walls once the ceremony was complete. She worked carefully, her calligraphy work some of her best. She pulled out her colored inks and decorated both copies in proper fashion, and make sure the pictogram colors were an accurate representation of what was on the wall. She added sketches of the temple and grounds, the statues and the secluded beach, and even Gautam, working until she felt she had captured the experience completely. Lastly, she added a picture she sketched of the group on the beach, Cat, Myth, Alida and Drake, all relaxed and carefree for the moment, Cat and Myth nestled closely together and Alida playing with Drake, fire blazing, food cooking, surfboards and packs scattered throughout. She sketched in happy emotions swirling gently in the air, as the mirth and smiles in the faces in the picture showed. Lastly she added a little finger shaped oval in the bottom corner, and charmed the picture. Knowing Myth well enough, she left a couple dozen pages blank in his copy so he could make notes and pictures of his own. She smiled and bound her copy in a simple fashion, but took more time with Myth's, binding it carefully with thin slabs of wood covered in decorated leather. Binding it thrice with wire, then gluing everything together carefully, Cat was pleased with the resulting copy. She titled and dated both copies, then sealed them with water and mildew proof charms, making sure they'd last. Tapping her chin for a moment, Cat sat back down and make a third beautiful copy for Alida's library, copying and binidng in the same manner as Myth's. Happy with her work, she wrapped Alida's and Myth's copies in protective coverings and pushed hers into her bag.*

(( eek b-b-big post....))
myth woke up, cat's disturbing thoughts of the god's essence being absorbed hanging around his head as he ate the dinner she left for him. after a little while he shrugged them off, making a mental note to return the few good memories he had accidentally taken as well. it felt weird to have another person's memories. he had done it plenty of times, even forgotten who he really was once but cat's were different. he didn't delve into them too deeply feeling it would be an invasion of privacy.

gathering up his things, notebooks, and tomes packed away once more he went into the main temple, looking around at all of cat's friends busily making preparations. he first looked for esben, feeling most comfortable around the giant bear for some reason. "good evening sir esben, how are you doing on your decoding of the temple?" he asked, the manners that came with his shyness and deep red face, showing again.

what ever
Im on now

*Esben smiled and clapped Myth on the shoulder* Just Esben, Myth my friend! And you should ask Lily about the decoding, i'm sure she'd be happy to fill you in. No, we're getting ready for the ceremony. It's going to be an interesting night tomorrow. Lots to do. Anything about the ceremony i can explain to you?? I don't know how much Lily has told you....

This ceremony will bless, consecrate and seal this temple for Gatam's use until he choses to leave or is forsaken. We will call on the ancients to bear witness to the sealing. Then, we will celebrate. Food, dancing, stories, you name it. *Esben smiled and pointed in one direction, and a mmoment late Cat came into view where Esben had been pointing* There's Lily....if that's who you're looking for......

(( I'll meep ya! Heh heh....did you read back?? Do i have to do the whole intro again?? ))
