Results!a. Follow the sound, for better or worse. Correct answer!b. Think better of it, apologize, and continue on the path they've set beneath the North Star. Incorrect answer. You walk forward in front of the stallion, rounding the boulders - and suddenly find yourself sliding! A large ice crevasse has opened up before you - not too deep, but deep enough to give you a good shock when you land at the bottom. It takes a good couple days and a lot of teamwork from your companions (and others!) to get you out. [Your journey has ended.] If you chose answer A, congratulations! You move on to the next round. If you chose answer B, well... You're not so lucky. However, if you are still working on the side quest... Check out what's in store for you! Quote: A WILD WIND APPEARS! Northern Wind Hawk and Soquili by spelldancer Results!a. Call out a cheerful hello. Incorrect answer. Startled by the loud noise you made, the hawk takes off from its roost on the soquili's wing and flies in the opposite direction. Giving you one long, noble look, the stallion follows the hawk - on the wing, where you cannot follow. [Your journey is over.] b. Wait for them to make the first move. Correct answer.Your patience and cool demeanor impresses the stallion, and he walks himself and his hawk toward you. "I see you are out stargazing with your friends," he says. "This is my friend's favorite day of the year, too." He lifts his wing jauntily, and the hawk ruffles its wings and makes an irritated chirping sound. "Were you looking for more constellations? You might see more facing east." He nods his head back the way he appears to have come. [Roll 3 6-sided dice. If you roll a 3, you have a shot at taking him and his hawk home!]
Rolled a 3: You travel farther to the east with this stallion and his companion - after a couple of hours, you come upon a group of soquili telling tales around a campfire. You have a great rest of the long night and hang out with him for a good deal longer.
You didn’t roll a 3: Concerned about getting lost, you respectfully turn down the stallion's suggestion to travel with him. However, when you go back to find your companions, you find that they have moved on. You head back to camp, but enjoy the night full of starlight. [Your journey is over.]
[If multiple people complete this side quest by rolling a 3, I will RNG between them to determine who takes them home, which will be based on pref list. If you have not already won both a soquili or a familiar from the event, you can potentially win both from this roll! If you are not eligible for one or the other, you may win the one you are eligible for. If neither is not on your preference list, simply don't roll for them.]Quote: Eliminated

Following the faint squeak into the stand of boulders, you wind your way between them. It's narrow in some places, and as your companions follow you, you realize that the stallion cannot continue, but the mare keeps close pace. You and she find a mouse trapped under a rock just a bit too big for it to escape. The mare offers you the snowflake that has been stuck into her fur, and you use it to pry the mouse free. Just as the mouse squeezes out from under the rock, however, you hear a wind kick up - and dense snow starts to fall. In the confusion, you see a shape move at the edge of the boulders where you left the stallion. You: Choices!a. Take shelter with the mare and the mouse. b. Find a different way out. c. Follow the movement to check on the stallion. Melo - as you're the sole survivor, go ahead and post when you finish reading! We'll keep going and see how far you get.

Results!a. Take shelter with the mare and the mouse. Correct answer!
b. Find a different way out. Incorrect answer! You get hopelessly lost in what turns out to be a white-out blizzard, and find yourself stuck in a crevasse on the other side of the boulders! Your companions eventually find you, but you aren't in the best shape by the time they pull you out. [Your journey has ended.]c. Follow the movement to check on the stallion. SIDE QUEST. If you chose answer A, congratulations! You move on to the next round. If you chose answer B, well... You're not so lucky. However, if you chose answer C... Check out what's in store for you! Quote: A WILD ICE FAIRY APPEARS!Ice Fairy by spelldancer As you leave the boulders, an ice blue soquili confronts you - you almost miss him in the blizzard! "What are you doing out here?" he cries. "Get back to shelter - you'll freeze!" Ushering you with his large wings, he pushes you away from the boulders and toward an ice cave not too far off. [Roll 4 4-sided dice. If you roll a 4, you have a chance to take him home!]
Roll a 4: You make it to the soquili's humble abode, which is chilly, but welcome. He regales you with stories of the constellations, which, though you cannot see them, you find quite enchanting. When you ask him if you can stay until the weather calms, he says of course - he's happy for the company!
4 not rolled: You trip on your way toward the cave and lose sight of both the soquili and the shelter - and you can't find your way back, either! Curling up to conserve your warmth, you wait out the blizzard until it calms... which is only a couple minutes. But unfortunately, you've lost your companions and your potential new friend. [Your journey is over.]
[If multiple people complete this side quest by rolling a #, I will RNG between them to determine who takes him home. If he is not on your preference list, simply don't roll!]Quote: Moving On
Melomar - side quest!
Pulling the mouse into your embrace, you and the mare hunker down to protect it, waiting out the ephemeral storm. Once it lets up, you let the mouse out of your arms - but before the mare lets it go on its way, she insists on offering it a warm drink from the jug on her back. You turn the nob on the jug at her instructions, holding a hand out to catch the water that streams from it. It is lovely and warm, and the mouse drinks the water greedily. You and the mare part ways with the grateful mouse, and head back to the patiently waiting stallion. "Any adventures in there?" he asks.
Choices!
a. "We just found a mouse who had... perhaps too many adventures tonight."
b. "Just somebody who needed a friend!"Same thing - just post when you finish reading!
