V'demhe Post 18

Virain's hand on her shoulder made her look at him and give him a smile. Shifting so that she could wrap her arms around him again she rested her head against his shoulder. "Thank you for trusting me. I was hoping to show them that earthlings aren't bad." V'demhe closed her eyes and took a deep breath. Aisha! She was tired. As she let it out she nuzzled against Rainy. "My mother isn't here, thankfully, so I will need to travel to the islands to let her know I am alive." Dem said it casually. As if her leaving would be normal.

"Come with me? Meet her?" The young Alkidike wasn't going to escort the extremists to the point of their exile. If she did that then she would still try to get them to change their minds. It would also make her more sad when the time came to actually send them away. V'demhe might not see eye to eye with them but they were still her sisters. Forcing them away from Aisha was more than exile. It was torture. "Please..?" The tone she held said she wanted to leave now so that she could save herself the pain of watching the exile of the others.

Saraf Post 18

Staying in Sauti wasn't something that Saraf wanted to do, not for long that was. The only reason that he stayed as long as he had already was merely due to the wounds that he'd sustained. After getting some real healing, as well as a bit of rest, he was more then ready to be on his way back to Oba. All he had to do, now that he was back on his feet, was to see if those pair of Shifters were still about. He wanted to have a 'word' with them after all. He'd deal with the pair of them, now when most of the northern savages had headed out, and then he'd head back to Oba where he belonged.

The biggest question then became if he should tell his mother that he'd found Issaly. He wasn't sure, especially since it was more then likely that the woman would ask him where Issaly was as well as why Saraf didn't bring the boy home with him. It had been years since she'd last seen the Shifter pair but from time to time they would come up again, her questioning where they were and if they were alright. it wasn't conversations that he enjoyed if only because he wanted his mother to be happy, not to dwell over a couple traitors. In her mind the two of them had been kidnapped, but from the way that Issaly had acted it was far from that. Such a pain. He had the entire journey back to Oba to decide if he'd talk to his mother about the brat or not.

Gathering up his things Saraf left those who had been taking care of him behind, moving to see if he could find the Shifters or not. If they had already run away, so be it, if not then he'd see about giving them a good shaking.

Nuri Post 22
Oban War Camp, Front Lines

Everything was overwhelming, and Nuri just wanted to walk away. After a fight that had both sides heaving, the appearance of the elders from the north seemed to finally get the extremists out of their hair. Although prideful, they relented to the demands, and the Earthling side won.

All Nuri wanted to do was get his shoulder looked at, and head home. There was no way he would lower himself to an errand boy and guard the Alkidikes, he would see his family and rest up.

Turning away, he headed toward the healer's tents, grunting a bit when he was jostled and the arrow in his shoulder shifted.

Heal first, leave later.

Leaving Naraka at the door, he pushed past the entrance of the tent and looked for a spare healer to help him and his wound.

Amarone Post 21
Healer's Tents

Amarone slumped down from where she stood on the barrels, her eyes wide and her head shaking as she watched the Alkidikes begin to leave. Her hands came to her mouth while she laughed lightly to herself, thinking of her family back home and everything that was happening around her. She would return home and let them know they were safe, they deserved as much, before she would explore the world anew. Maybe this time she could make it to Jauhar, the lands where people warned of Alkidike attacks.

No matter, as those attackers were now being sent far, far away.

Rishima Post 18

Before he'd been able to talk to Aselia she had been taken from him, taken with the other extremists, leaving Rishi standing there with his hand out. It appeared as though she meant to go along with those being banished, didn't it? There was a part of him that wanted to demand she be let go, to grab her and drag her away from the others, to try to protect her... but he couldn't, could he? He wasn't an elder, wasn't a mystic, wasn't an oracle, he didn't have the power needed to try to fight such a decree. As it stood he couldn't really go against the orders of those in charge meaning that he was going to be forced to watch her be taken away. She would be sent off to some island with the other extremists, never to be seen again. She wasn't like them, she'd just wanted to see the firebirds... or at least that was what it seemed like to him.

To go with those who were escorting the extremists to the boats or not, that became the question. Did he really want to go along just to see his sisters get sent away, never to be seen again? It was a painful though, but surely he had to go? To see things through? Not to mention that it was a bit more time to try to talk to Aselia, to get her to look to Eshe and Yansa for forgiveness and to see about coming back home with everyone. It was something that he wanted her to do, but would she? Would she consider it or would she instead want to go with those being banished? He feared deep in his heart that she would choose to go, something that hurt thinking about.

Sighing a little he glanced to Gerraden, telling the younger man what his plans were, that being to go with the other escorts. He had to try after all, he couldn't let his little sister go without at least an attempt, but if Gerraden wanted to come along it was support Rishima welcomed.  

[Silver_tigress18]

Aselia's dark orbs were listening to Rishima, wavering in what to do. The sisters beside her talked with a humming anger. Lifting her hand to reach back she tried to resist the tears that threatened her. Did he really mean the words he shared? Before she could extend her raised hand out to meet him V'demhe had returned. This time with a fish in tow. Snarling she pulled her hand back to herself and found her body yanked away with the rest of her sisters.

Her mind ignored all the sensory input around her. Her head held high and shoulders squared. She would not appear defeated, she couldn't, there were to many sisters who were not backing down. And she wasn't going to abandon them, not when they had done so much for her. Glancing towards the sky Aselia took comfort in the fact that popoie followed the shifting group even when they were ushered into boats. Taking a deep breath Aselia silently ignored those escorting her in the boats, her mind was too focused on her Kinfa above. It wouldn't be long now before the large bird would be able to carry her away from the islands. And she knew she wouldn't be forced there for long.

Kadriye post 15

" Bri,I need to go with them, to see them secured and know that even if they are banished they make it to that place safely." They were her sisters, her tribe even if they had disgraced themselves and Aisha with their foolish actions today.

Aselia going with the holdouts, refusing to surrender made it all the more tragic. Now there was only her and Eshe left to tend to the people and to Aisha, from four, even if the matron had stepped down, mystics to two in such a short time would not be easy to work with.

" I do not relish the talks that will need to be had when we return home Briella, nor watching our sisters try to mend the wounds this fight had caused our tribe. I am never more grateful to have you by my side." Love conquering all was naught but silly stories told to the young but Kadriye knew she'd need the love and support of her girlfriend in the coming months to weather the storm that would follow what had happened here.

Kayin post 17

Kayin thought about it for a few moments. Should she and her brother go along? Well, it would at least get them out of the house, and use it as an excuse to travel. She never really bothered much in caring about Oba when that whole fiasco was going on as Alek had only recently returned around that time, but he was back and everything seemed smoothed out for the most part, and there would be others making the trek as well.

"If you're up for it I'm up for it..." she said finally. "I think a change of scenery would do us both some good, yah?"

The ships rocked and swayed, beating against the current to make their way south and to the new island. After two full days of open ocean an Oban spotted something out on the water. It was the island.

It grew larger with each push forward and they had made landfall by the afternoon. It was strange, the beach sand was coarse and dark, but the island seemed to be large, with its discerning feature standing out against the skyline - a large volcano.

The people of Tendaji disembarked from the boats, ready to send off the Matron and her followers into this unknown and be done with it. The Matron had been calm the entire journey, almost complacent like she was happy to go. Most chalked it up to her anger with the rest of the outsiders, but still something was strange. It was only when her feet touched land that she seemed to smile.

She addressed her Sisters, those that were to stay with her. "This land will be our home from now on. We do not need any of our traitorous Sisters nor the earthlings to survive here. We will be better, stronger, and Aisha will guide us..." She trailed off at the end, pulling a small wrapped object out of her bag. "We will be the true vision of what our Mother created in us, not the weaklings we are leaving behind."

The Matron and the Sisters gave out their last bitter parting remarks, everything from cursing the earthlings to insulting them, to calling out the Sisters who had turned traitor before they were called into the forest by the Matron and disappeared to find their new settlement.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Those that had escorted the extremists began their preparations to return to the mainland, their eyes wide with intrigue and wonder at the new scenery around them. They had never been off of the Tendaji coast, not nearly far enough to have seen this place before, but most showed their interest in exploring further. There was debate whether they should stay overnight, or leave right away and give the extremists their space, but before anything could be decided something began to emerge from the wilderness to the beach's coast. Olive skin and purple hair caught the late afternoon light, the glowing gray eyes watching the other earthlings cautiously. Most seemed to be wary of their visitors, others downright angry or terrified.

But one thing was certain... the island was not empty like they had thought.

|| The meta is over!
|| Those Alkidike that have decided to stay with the extremists will be on temporary hiatus until the next meta chapter.
