I CHOOSE CHOICE C
Nadiya - Post 2 - 20 HP
So apparently racing along the edges of the clearing while yelling towards the trees wasn't a way out. Nadiya even tried humming, skipping, dancing, and whistling to try and entice something to come forward. But there was nothing. Sighing, the girl finally just stood still and was surprised to see that a thick mist was coming back towards her.
What now?
Swaying on her feet, Nadiya allowed the mists to caress her body into sleep. When she opened her eyes again she was startled to find herself in a hot spring. It was really serene and she felt like she could just relax here forever...I was rather tired. All of the traveling she had been doing recently, worrying about her family, and just trying to find her place in this world had exhausted her. Surely staying for just a few moments wouldn't hurt?
Just a little bit and then she would get out and work on finding her way out once more...

Shadiya - Post 2 - 20 HP
Shadiya had just waited patiently in the meadow. Her mind was so full of spiraling thoughts that she was rather thankful for the mists that came and swept her away. If she just waited it out then perhaps she could get out of this nightmare. Sighing, Shadiya opened her eyes to find that she was now in a hot spring.
It was so relaxing. But would she ever be able to get out of here? She had to travel and then Dex, what about him? Would he be waiting for her on the other side? What if he wasn't the only one waiting for her? Images from her past flickered through her mind and the girl had to stifle her sobs. She was so weary of everything...
These waters could help relax her. It could give her a chance to rest and gain the strength for later. She just had to let all of her worries slide away so that she could finally have some freedom from the past...

I CHOOSE CHOICE A Volkarosh
15 HPShe blinked, and suddenly she was in water, warm, soft, lovely water. The child was perplexed, but not uncomfortably so... In fact, she was quite comfortable. Too comfortable. Volkarosh had had few comforts in her life. It didn't make her uneasy to be comfortbale, just... wary. Of a storm that might follow. Of what she had to do next. Somehow, though, all of that was being washed away. Maybe she could relax... maybe she could... Yes. Comforts did not come to her often. Best to enjoy it now, while it lasted. She closed her eyes and let the water wash away what few troubles the little girl had...

I CHOOSE CHOICE B Ruelash
25hp Ruelash stalked warily around the clearing, frustrated at being confined in this place, and uncertain about whether he might fall again. Something, a sound - he jumped, blades flashing... And suddenly he was warm and comfortable, engulfed in water. "What..." he raised his swords above it, and sought out an exit, the lapping water and soothing steam making him uneasy. Ruelash was no stranger to relaxing, of course. He could take a break as well as anyone could. But, though the mists tried to glaze it over, he was still jittery from the fall, and he wanted to get out. He scrambled for an exit, pulling himself out of the water and shaking himself off like a wet beast before adjusting the grip of his blades and seeking around him for something - anything - to go towards...

I CHOOSE CHOICE A Votzhem
25 hpAlmost as suddenly as the dream had taken him to the clearing, it returned him to the water. Votzhem just went with the flow, stretching in the soft hiss of the steam. Hey, it was nice. Why not relax for a moment the warmth of the spring seemed to whisper, Why not take a load off? You are so stressed, so tired...Yeah, why not indeed? Votzhem let himself sink into the steaming puddle, until his nose rested above the water. He felt relief seep into aches that he hadn't realized he had, carrying away the pains of life. "Mmm..." he mumbled, bubbling into the hot spring, "This is nice..."

I CHOOSE CHOICE C Dyakida
25hpThere was no way out of the clearing, not one she could see. Only trees and sounds. She was surrounded, and it was all so strange. The twisted shapes, the sense of calm... Dyakida did not dislike it. Wisps of mist caressed her gently. She touched them and it, flirtaciously, danced away from her hand, curling about it like laughter on a breeze. It thickened, becoming more tangible, and Dyakida was aware, gradually, of a soothing warmth about her. Water. She was in water. Shimmering, steaming water. It drew her in with tendrils of steam. Surely, she could take a break for a moment, surely she could curl amidst it and just rest? She had worked so hard - so hard - to be what she was. She deserved a break, didn't she? A long one. A feeling like hands rubbing gently down her back - a shiver that had nothing to do with cold... Dyakida's eyes narrowed in pleasure, causing the dreamscape around her to erupt into a playful display of false rainbows. "Yesss..." she whispered, sinking into the water. She deserved a break... but only for a moment or two. Obligation called her, gradually gaining definition as the water lapped over her, easing sore places in her body and soul and the many cuts and abrasions on her hands. She had to do something, for someone, and just because she couldn't remember exactly what it was, right now, didn't mean it wasn't important. She couldn't stay in this lovely place forever. She would have to leave. But whatever she needed to do, for someone, didn't it behoove her to be at her best? Thus, this break was in service to her obligation. Thus, all was fine. Dyakida relaxed.

I CHOOSE CHOICE C Hijil
25 hp
Hijil cheerfully searched for a path, for surely there was one. It would take a while, yes - that was how finding things in dreams worked - but she would find a path, and it would take her home. She hummed a merry tune as she searched, absently eating a berry from her bag every now and then. Hijil wasn't sure if she found the way out. All she knew was that the scene changed, and so she must have. She held the bag above the water and smiled. This was nice! This was new! She felt tired, suddenly, as if the years and years and years had caught up with her at last. She could see it in her skin, the way it stretched over years of scars, visible and invisible. I can't go home looking like this...! she said, frowning at her arm, I should rest a little. Here. Yes, this hot spring was nice. It would ease all her troubles and all her fears. It would wash away the pain and leave her normal. New. Hijil. She put the berry bag safely on the shore and settled into the water to rest. It was a long way home (though it had seemed so short, mere moments ago) and she needed her strength. But only for a little - she wanted Bhima to try those berries... (before she ate them all herself.)

I CHOOSE CHOICE A Ziel
HP: 15 hp
Ziel hadn’t liked the clearing, it felt dangerous and her mother and father were nowhere in sight. They never left her along for this long. She hadn’t wanted to stay there, especially not when the mist started rolling in. Ziel tried to get away from it but it always caught up to her. When she found herself in the water however… Ziel felt relax and right at home. She had no wish to get out of it, so she played in it instead. Here it was much safer in her opinion. The water was better than the clearing anyways.

HP: 15 hpThe youngling didn’t know what was going on, but she let it happen anwyays. She was relaxed and didn’t feel like she was in any immediate danger right now. Once she found herself in the water, Kanika reveled in it. Finally some time to relax all to herself! Both her mothers were always so keen on training that this free time was glorious! Kanika sunk into the water, enjoying it and wishing her sister could have joined her. Ah well, she was going to enjoy an hour or two here before she got back to her training. No one would know.

I CHOOSE CHOICE B Alassiel
HP: 25 hpThe Shifter found that time was going by far too slowly for her likes with nothing happening. Where was she even? When the mist started rolling towards her, Alassiel prepared herself to fight a foe but instead found herself relaxing despite the seemingly oncoming danger. When her eyes opened once again she was in water and not in the clearing anymore. It seemed odd to her and a bit surreal, as much as she liked the water there was no need to stay in it. She couldn’t feel the bottom and could not tell if something might grab her. The shifter got out of the water and walked away from it.

I CHOOSE CHOICE B Zandala
HP: 20 hpZandala hated the feeling of relaxation she got when the mist rolled in and yet she couldn`t fight it. Her eyes and only open again to see that she is no longer in that clearing but in some sort of water. Zandala knows she can`t stay here, shouldn`t be staying here, she needs to get back to the tribe. The Alkidike pulls herself out of the water, giving it one last look before moving away. It was not natural to feel this relaxed, one needed to always be on the ready in case an enemy appeared. Zandala would not be caught dead being relaxed.

I CHOOSE CHOICE A Xilarn
Post: 2
HP: 25Was there something he was supposed to do about these beasts on his property? Xilarn glanced back and around before facing front again and came to the immediate conclusion that he was not on his property, anymore. Just a strange land, with strange creatures staring at him with unfamiliar, creepy eyes, but otherwise doing... nothing. He supposed so long as that kept up, he might as well let them be. Probably best not to incite a fight when he didn't know where he was or even what some of the creatures even were.
Warily, he paced. Then ambled. Then sat. The clearing stretched on. The trees to all sides showed no signs of thinning. The wild things did nothing more to offend him besides existing, and that hardly merited much of any mood besides tired annoyance from him. Xilarn dipped his head into his hands and shut his eyes. There was no telling how long that lasted.
All he knew was that one moment things were as 'normal' as to be inspected, and on the next breath, the world felt significantly different. Warm. The air was heavy with a humidity that he didn't immediately appreciate. With a grunt, he opened his eyes and glowered around. White everywhere. Not the welcome purity of a fresh snowfall, but closer to what he expected going blind to be like. By itself, this would've been pretty severe cause for alarm. But as it was, the white started to dissipate like rolling fog, showing faint outlines of pebbles, grasses, and water. A lot of water.
Maybe that wasn't so bad.
He didn't especially care for the hot, and did prefer to have normal breathing and sight capabilities. But the reasoning for them was at least rational, this time. A hot spring.
There weren't any especially pressing matters to attend to. His lover was dead, his kid had left him, he hated his family, and he wasn't even at home to tend to his daily habits. So if he wanted to embrace this weird little side trip and let the rest slip away for a bit, what was so wrong with that?

ItotiaStage 2 20 HP Itotia was just growing agitated when the mist came in. It felt like smoke, and the heat was similar to the bright days she faced back in Oba. She worried for a long second she was awakening, her memories fading, before her body became surrounded by a soothing water and she felt her muscles begin to relax. Her clothing was gone, but she didn't mind as she felt the type of serenity that was only but a memory. There was no Afsana, Aseara, or any Obans, just her in the soothing springs.
She felt like she had somewhere to be, but Itotia was never one to follow instructions or rush off. Instead, she simply decided to lay back and relax, forgetting about all the chores and restrictions she had and just taking the time to enjoy herself for a change.I CHOOSE CHOICE A

NuriStage 4 25 HP Nuri was dreaming. It was a soft dream of Aseara and a faceless family, a dream that haunted him as he traveled back to Oba after his long journey. As he relaxed into the dream, the children running around him, he suddenly felt the scene shift. The world changed to something unfamiliar, and he was left surrounded by smoke and water. It felt relaxing, and he didn't mind leaning back and just settling in for a long moment.
However, he knew that this was not a time to relax. He had other things to do, he needed to get home. He had to report to the leaders about his findings, settle in his new familiars, train recruits, and see Aseara. There was no time to rest in a hot spring, and so he opened his eyes, moved to the edge, and go out.
He could relax when he was home.I CHOOSE CHOICE B

Carminer Prentice 15 HP Somehow, he had fallen asleep.
Oh who was he kidding, he knew how he fell asleep, it was quite typical afterall. The drinks he stowed away on his travels did well enough to make him drowsy, and he often fell asleep on the table near his brother, mid-conversation. It did a nice job of providing him with some exciting dreams, filled with drinks and women and contentment.
However, his contentment didn't last long, as the world spun into darkness and he was painfully sober in the middle of a strange clearing. He didn't bother wandering around - instead he laid back and looked at the weirdly colored sky until his vision was blocked by grey. Were they clouds? Sitting up, he didn't realize he was covered in warm water, and his body relaxed as he let out a purr. This was nice, and different. How could he, the epitome of relaxation, resist something like this.
Despite how this dream changed, he was more than happy to settle in to where he was now.I CHOOSE CHOICE A
