Welcome to Gaia! ::

Zig walked at a leisurely pace toward the Tavern, but she stopped in her tracks when she saw the empty field of grass that had replaced the building. The grass couldn't have been underneath it... So someone purposefully got rid of it and covered the area with grass? Why would they bother? There were enough people walking around that she couldn't determine who had been the one to do this. She knew that a large group of people had returned to the tavern after the fire so one of them had probably already gone to warn higher authorities. The air elementalist looked at Taun and asked, "Well, what do we do now?"

"One moment," Zig said as a piece of parchment fluttered down into her hand. She opened the missive which when summarized simply said that she should return to Palpisol, the Air Kingdom capital. "Seems Princess Illusion is worried about being attacked again. She's at the temple with the other important nobility. She wants me to head to Palpisol, but I don't see why we couldn't visit the temple first." To tell the truth, Zig didn't really want to head back to the air capital. She didn't really know anyone there since she only visited it sporadically. She hadn't been there in at least a year and she wasn't exactly eager to cut short her time in the nation's capital. She did ask nicely and I can't blame her for wanting some elementalists around to protect Palpisol. As they began walking toward the Temple Zig asked Taun, "Do you have any idea what she means by the attack the Water Kingdom made on the Air capital?"

Mia had gone behind the counter to reach for a falled glass under the bar. As she had come back up, picking up the glass, she hit her head, HARD, on something she did not see. She immediately dropped down on the floor and passed out.

When Mia woke up, the tavern was empty and dark. She carefully got up and looked around. The tavern was completely empty and void of all light. She looked at the windows, expecting them to be closed. Instead, she found Dusk's newly cleaned windows squished against hard-packed dirt.
Figuring out that she was now underground, she ran upstairs. She had no idea how long she had been knocked out and how much air she had used up already. As she found the room closest to the roof, she began to push. First, she pushed against the roof, breaking it open, leting dirt fall onto the floor.
Working quickly, she used to dirt on the ground to push herself up into the dirt while also pushing the dirt above her aside. After about ten minutes, she broke the surface and climbed out. The whole area where the tavern used to be was now covered in grass, as if the tavern had been gone for years. Panicking she began to walk around, trying to figure out what was going on.

Beginning to walk away from the grassy patch, Maryl stopped. She remembered she did indeed have the last component for such a spell. "That key!" She reached into her pocket and took out a small house key with a pink ribbon tied to it. She looked at the small key with anticipation and glee. "It belonged to her. It should be perfect." Maryl held up the key and began whispering phrases in draconic. She tossed a small fist sized rock up into the air. The rock glowed brightly in a purplish white light sprinkling down bits of magic energy.

With a bright flashing burst of magic, Maryl vanished leaving nothing but a residual aura of arcane energy where she stood.

Kel dropped down right around where the door of the tavern would be. He scratched his head in confusion out of the general lack of building. "Oookay..." He paused and looked down at the ground, folding his arms. This reeks of sabotage I can practically see the building sitting down there in the ground. He looked around to make sure nobody was watching, the coast was clear. He concentrated on the building, imagining picking it up with his hands. The ground began to shake as the grassy area cleared away. The slanted roofing pierced through the ground and began to rise, followed by the walls, then eventually even the door stood right where it should be before Kel. Some displaced dirt slid off of the roof and onto the streets and to the sides of the Inn, but it was right where it should be again. Kel took a quick glance around again. It seemed he didn't attract any attention so he turned and started walking down the street.

Kira flew in on her griffin just outside of the tavern . "Still in ruins i see " she got off her griffin putting the sadle belt off and putting it on a post . " There you go girl now go before people see ". She shooed her off with a pat on her back. The griffin flew off towards the earth nation . Kira watched as her griffin flew off . Kira looked around to see if they had caused attention , it seemed no one had payed any at all. "I suppose ill go to the fire nation and see what there up to ". "with any luck there may be even a brawl"
