The year is 3037. The Earth is greatly advanced. We are now capable of interstellar travel. Many planets have already been traveling in between solar systems for many years, even before Neil Armstrong first stepped on our moon in 1969. However, not all planets are as advanced. These planets are protected under the Underdeveloped Planet Preservation Pact, which states that no man or woman from advanced civilizations can interact with anyone from these planets. However, a ship from Earth malfunctions in the middle of space and crashes on one of these underdeveloped planets, a planet the Earthlings have named Sylvanus. None of the crew’s equipment works, not even their weapons. The crew is going to have to survive on this foreign planet until they can be found by the Earth, with the help of some of the natives.

 No one likes them, but they're necessary.1: No god-moding.
2: Romance is allowed and encouraged, but keep it PG-13. In other words, NO CYBERING. No one wants to read it.
3: Follow the guild rules and the ToS.
4: No killing without permission from the person you are killing and then I'll want proof of agreement. If you are killed without permission, pm me and I will kick the killer out and bring you back to life. So I'm warning you, don't kill without permission or you will get kicked out.
5: You may have up to four characters if, and only if, you can keep track of them all. If you are unsure if you will or not, do not try.
6: I would like to have a permanent couple between the captain and vice-captain of the ship from Earth. I will be playing the vice-captain, but the captain is available to anyone who'll make a profile for him.
7: Try to answer often. I understand schedule difficulties as I am a high school student myself. Just please notify me if you will be gone for a while.
8: PM profiles to me under the title of, "How will I survive this?" for the people from Earth and, "Who are these strangers?" for the Sylvians.
9: Put a sweatdrop in the bottom corner of your PM so I know you read the rules.
10: I reserve the right to add or change rules as I see fit, so come back often.
11: And, MOST IMPORTANT RULE OF THEM ALL

 The Earth
Earth has become one of the most developed planets in the universe. All poverty, racism, and sexism have been completely eradicated. We now have the technology to create working robots, which are employed for various purposes. Instead of many different countries on the same planet, we have become one large one, called the Earth Federation, and are led by a president. The Earth’s rainforests and polar icecaps have been saved from total destruction and we have an easily created alternate fuel for our ships. The guns are now laser guns, as seen in 20th and 21st century movies. Classic guns are now antiques.
Our defenses are top of the line, on account of an enemy planet. The ship that malfunctioned and landed on Sylvanus was on a recon mission, looking out for enemy movement. Earth has yet to figure out where the ship landed and rescue the crew. However, for safety issues in case something like this were to happen, all people in the Federation’s military are required to take a class on wielding ancient weapons, including, but not limited to, swords, bows, and plain martial arts. Thus, as long as they are not attacked by natives, the crew should be all right. Should be.

 Yes, I know this is Earth, but it works.Sylvanus
Sylvanus was named by the Earth for the Roman god of nature. Sylvanus is very similar to Earth in that it is home to many different terrains. There are deserts, vast forests, oceans, mountains, rainforests, plains, icecaps, and almost any other terrain type found on Earth. There are also animals very similar to those on Earth, albeit the ancestors of the current species on Earth. The planet even has a similar mass and size to the Earth, and is about the same distance away from the nearest star. It is, in every way, Earth’s twin.
However, the technology Sylvanus has is more developed than Earth’s was at that stage. They may not have any guns, but they have airships capable of flying completely around the planet, although they cannot leave the atmosphere. They do not have cars, factories, or anything like that. It is much like the Earth prior to the Middle Ages.
The planet is divided into four kingdoms. There’s Athalia in the west. Athalia is by far the largest country on the planet. Athalia is home to a variety of climates The western border is on the ocean, the eastern, southern, and northern borders shared with the other three countries. This is where the ship from Earth crashed. North of Athalia is Galdera. It is the smallest of the countries, but is protected by a nearly impassible mountain border. The mountains are high enough that airships cannot fly above them. East of Athalia is Imeria. This is the second largest country and is known for its tropical climate. And south is Falcea, the second smallest. The four kingdoms appear to be at peace, but are suspicious of the others.

The Natives
The Sylvians are humanoid creatures. However, unlike humans, they have tails, ears, and wings of different animals. Some of the natives are cat-like, with cat ears and tails. Some are wolf-like. Some fox-like. Some bird-like. Many others are like other animals. But all look human with ears, tails, wings, or combinations of them.
Some Sylvians can use magic, but, while this is not common, it is not rare either. The ability to use magic must be granted by the god Aluminas at the birth of a child. Certain people can use certain types of magic more adeptly than others. For example, one person can use healing magic well, but offensive magic not so well. However, no magic users are very good at physical fights.

She's also very good at hiding her emotions, especially the ones toward the captain.
Rank: Vice-captain
Weapon: a bow
Bio: Amy has lived a sheltered life her whole life. Born into a rich family, she didn't have much trouble growing up. They weren't overly rich, considering no one in the world was facing poverty, but they were richer than most. But she got tired of the sheltered life and joined the military program. As she was bright, she passed the military academy at the top of her class, with the exception of one person who was ahead of her. The captain of the crew she was assigned to. Ever since she first laid eyes on him, she knew how she felt. When she was assigned to his crew, she could have sworn she was the happiest woman on Earth. But she kept her composure and did not let any of her feelings toward him show.

Age: 21
Gender: female
Personality: Elisa is is kind girl. She always does what she believes it right.
Rank: computer technician(works with monitors watching the engines, power levels, etc.)
Weapon: dagger
Bio: Elisa was born into a loving family where Germany used to be. She was always interested in joining the military, but was never very good at fighting. Thus she became a computer technician and was assigned to Mark Trenton's crew. When they crash-landed on Sylvanus, she did all she could to try to get the radio to work, but was unable to do so.
Appearance:
 Gaia username:Ranku Konstol
Name: Eloise Gineel (Gin)
Age: 23
Gender: Female
Personality: Dedicated, Gin has a problem with giving up, always choosing the most difficult path, luckily she has enougth skill and luck to make it through. Her main disposition is rather `out of it` as it were, always thinking about nothing particular, she one of these people who use a lot of words to say nothing, but when it is needed, she can be as attentive as is required of a pilot.
Rank: Helmsman
Weapon: A make shift pole-arm
Bio: At a young age she was always interested in space ships, military and civilian, she would watch the videos of the frigates on manoeuvres over and over till she could remember the movements. School was mostly skipped as she took a more, involved interest, as soon as she could she as in the military pilot program. Much to the gripe of her parents who wished a more academic career for the girl
She shone like a star, out classing many in her field with ease, she graduated in a year instead of three, making her the youngest registered pilot in generations. This with several outlying reasons has had her assigned to a smaller ship than she would have hoped for, but at least she could fly. She has been flying the Arcaius since it's commission she had grown attached to it, it was her ship, she flew it. It's crash was a blow to her.
Other: Physically, she is extremely weak, due to illness, she would have been a full military pilot but failed the examination, leaving her in recon missions only.
Appearance:  Gaia username:Sujidu
Name: Ryan Stephen
Age: 24
Gender: Male
Personality: He is protective to about anything that he cares for. His crew mates and his belongings. Not that he has many.

Rank: Engineer/Maintenance
Weapon: Claws He had brought them for decoration when they reached their destination, but now he's happy he brought them.
Bio: Ryan grew up in a fairly poor family. As a child he absolutely loved building things and fixing things. He was a genius when it came to things like that. He was scouted for the military engineer program and his parents were very happy. He ended up placing top in his class and went on to learning how to fix the engines of ships and other things. After years of preparation, he finally landed a job on a major ship. How was he supposed to know his life would change?
Other: You really don't want to see him angry. He usually has a pretty good reign on it and keeps it in check, but when he gets angry, its like a totally different him. He kinda goes berserk...
Appearance:  Gaia username:Maxeon X
Name: Terit 21-SPRC (Spark)
Age: 8 Years (looks around late eighteen, nineteen, or early twenty)
Gender: Male
Personality: He is kind to those around him and has an air of calm around him. It is very hard to get him angry. Sometimes he seems to be more into his work than anything else, but mostly those moments are when no one else is around.
Rank: Temperary crew replacement.
Weapon: Nothing at the moment.
Bio: Terit came into existance on earth around eight years ago. He lived a very sheltered life, not being allowed to do much that involved the outside world outside of the facility where he and many like him were kept. He-much like the others-aged quickly to the point where he was grown enough to do his job. Throughout that time he went about his training and lessons, devouring the knowledge he obtained, forgetting very little, and what he did forget was stuff that didn't really matter: "what he ate for breakfast" type things. The job he was to do was to take control of a ship should the crew fall ill or are unable to do so for an extended period. Out of the group he was put in to train for this task, he finished first, and with the best skill of any in the group, which immediately caught the eyes of the ones overlooking the whole operation. He was then put into more advanced tests, and passed them-with a bit of difficulty-with flying colors. This impressed the superiors, and as soon as he was able, Terit was sent out on his first voyage at the 'age' of seven, on the ship Arcaius, two years ago. He was put into cryo-sleep until he was needed, aging slower than normal.
Other: He is not human, he is a meld of machine and organic science.
Appearance:  Black hair, blue/grey eyes.

 Sylvians Athalia Gaia username:Gwen of Air 13
Name: Goaina
Age: 25
Gender: female
Personality: Uptight and proper, Goaina simply ebbs the essence of 'queen'. She has yet to become queen, but her father is weakening, and she is aware that she will be queen soon. She also understands that she must find a husband, but she has a condescending look on all royal men. She is strict, straight-backed, calm and collected, never letting her emotions ride her actions. She speaks in a very formal way to everyone, except when she is scolding her sister.
Race: Lake-dwelling lizard.
Country: Athalia
Weapon: Goaina does not require a weapon. She is constantly surrounded by bodyguards who will protect her if she is ever attacked. However, when she was going through her 'rebellious princess phase', she learned how to sword fight, and, given a sword and the opportunity, will hack an enemy to gory bits.
Magic: There is a rumor that she uses ice magic. However, she only uses something called 'temperature magic', which, true to it's name, means that she can change the temperature around her slightly.
Bio: Goaina was the firstborn child of the queen of Athalia. She was born half-lizard, which panicked her parents, as lizards were a poor man's animal. Her mother attempted to have the fins on her head removed at one point, but the shriek that accompanied the first cut was unbearable to all who heard it, and it was simply stitched back together. She still has the scar, and still wonders why it's there.
When her little sister was born, Goaina's mother grew ill, and died a few days later. There was nothing any of the doctors could do. However, the day her mother died was the day her little sister, Mina, began to talk, and because of this, Goaina believes that her mother's soul was given to the second born child. Because of this, Goaina was unwilling to let Mina get hurt, lest something bad happen and the only reminder of their mother disappear forever.
Goaina grew up surrounded by royalty, with an expectation to be an adult as soon as her mother died. Private tutors had taught her for the first nine years of her life, but now the security upped on her, being the next queen, and she was taught manners and rules and all sorts of things she'd rather have put off until later. Her sister, in comparison, was given a fair amount of time to be childish, then put on schooling cold turkey, which, Goaina reasons, is probably the reason her sister is always running off and wishing for childhood.
Recently, some huge, silver object landed nearby. Goaina is less than willing to allow Mina to go and find it, but undoubtedly, her sister will sneak off anyway. Goaina plans on following her when the time comes, just to make sure she doesn't get hurt.
Other: Goaina is frightened of creepy-crawlies of all kinds and the dark. When she is faced with either, she will attempt to be collected, but will eventually delve into a panicked mess, backing away and clinging to even complete strangers in an attempt to get away.
Appearance: Goaina stands about 5'8", and tends towards wearing long, flowing dresses. These always cover her entire neck and arms, which are coated in silvery-blue scales. In the place of ears, she has blue fin-looking flaps. She has gills on her neck. Her fingers are clawed. Gaia username: Stefisgarden
Name: Mina
Age: 16
Gender: female
Personality: Mina is a very energetic young woman. She trusts rather easily and is very carefree. She's very outgoing and unafraid to talk to people she doesn't know. She is caring to her friends and family and always show kindness to strangers, even though she knows not if they are friend or foe.
Race: dove
Country: Athalia
Weapon: staff
Magic: healing
Bio: Mina is the second born princess of Athalia, but she sure doesn't act like it. Unlike how a princess is supposed to act, Mina often leaves the castle with a few servants to fly around in an airship, or run around in the wild. She never really acted like a princess. Why should she? She's not going to inherit the throne. That would be her older sister. So why not act like the child she is? It's not hurting anyone.
One day, while she was wandering around in the forest near the castle with her servants, she stumbled upon a huge metal thing. Just outside it were a bunch of people. With no ears, tails, or wings. It was the strangest thing she had ever seen. She invited them all back to the castle to show her father. Not knowing that she had found people from another planet, a planet far beyond the stars.
Appearance:
 Gaia username:Nekochild
Name: Kira Haibara
Age: 9
Gender: Female
Personality: Friendly, but shy at first. Very curious and has a mischievous side as well.
Race: Cat
Country: Athalia
Weapon: Claws and fangs
Magic: None
Bio: Born in a rather well populated town, Kira lived a normal life up until she was a little over six years old. Her family had been rather poor and just barely scraped by, but when both her parents grew sick things went downhill. Unable to work, they had to sell off what little they had to get food. Things got even worse when the sickness grew worse, forcing the parents to be bedridden while Kira performed small errands for the town in return for food. Most people sympathized with her and gave her whatever extra's they could to help out. For a while it seemed like everything was going to be okay, but the worst happened on her seventh birthday. Only seven years old, Kira was left alone in the world and without anyone to pay for the house, she was forced to leave her house and enter the streets. Things were hard for her and for the first few days she was devastated, but she knew that she couldn't give up. Her parents had always taught her to never give up, even in the end and she lived by that rule. She continued to perform errands for food and stayed wherever there was shelter.
She lived day to day running different errands such as deliveries, minor housekeeping, maintaining stalls while the shop owner was away, things like that. She had never even thought about leaving the town until she saw it a little past her ninth birthday. Something strange, like an airship but different, fell through the clouds and crashed a ways away from the town. Her curiosity overcame her sense of reason and she immediately prepared for the journey to the strange object.
Other: Being a cat, Kira is naturally agile and being on her own has only sharpened her movements since she had to run, jump, and hide almost daily.
Appearance:  Galdera Gaia username:Ranku 9898
Name: Green.
Age: 16 (or so she says)
Gender: Female
Personality: Cruel, deceitful and childlike, she has a personality complex and an ego the size of Kansas. A very tough woman to get to know and a harder one to like, she is distrusting of all, greedy, narcissistic and ultimately unpleasant.
Race: Bat
Country: Galdera
Weapon:
Magic: A great amount of dark based magic
Bio: She grew up on her own in a forest on the Galdera border, in an old hut she found when she was little, living simply off of fruits and nuts. An odd skull in the hut taught her things, magic, how to hunt, how to lie, it became her only friend, whether it talks or not is a matter of debate. After a while she started to stray from the forest and visit nearby towns, but there she only found cruelty, no one wanted to play with a girl who carried a skull around.
This was what made her lose faith, so she learned how to hurt people, the people who didn't like her, she would make them. Soon enougth she could hold a town to her mercy, it was fun, and that's what she does now. Travel around `making freinds` with villages that looked small.
Other: Carries a skull named Barry.
Appearance: Green Imeria Gaia username:Gwen of Air 13
Name: Rosalie
Age: 12
Gender: female
Personality: Sharp-witted, hot-headed, and snarky, Rosalie (or Rose, as her friends call her) tends to snap at people she dislikes. She has her own almost-calm manner, but it's overshadowed by cockiness. She's not exactly full of herself, per say, but she knows who she's better than, and she rubs it in their faces.
Race: Fox
Country: Imeria
Weapon: Rosalie carries around a staff, but it's only for show. It doesn't help her with magic at all, and it's probably very breakable.
Magic: Rosalie is a highly skilled fire magic user. However, her strength is second to none because of this.
Bio: Rosalie was born into a rich family, a healthy child, and likely to take over the legacy. However, when she was seven years old, her mother gave birth to a boy, and Rosalie was basically damned to backwater royalty, something that infuriated her to no end. She hates her little brother because of this, once even tipping over his cradle and then hiding in the closet to avoid getting into trouble(she got in trouble anyway).
In the school she attended, along with commoners, Rosalie took her anger out on classmates. She became every possible mean of the word 'schoolyard bully', and was damn proud of it, too. Her parents, deciding that rowdy behavior was a bad thing(clearly), told her to clean up her act or they'd marry her off to some old gentleman and get themselves a bit of extra cash. Knowing that it would have happened like that anyway, Rosalie ignored the threats and continued to push the littler kids into puddles and kick the boys in the behinds, knowing that they couldn't hit back by rules of chivalry. Her parents, true to their promise, picked out an ugly(but rich) old gentleman, and promised Rosalie's hand in marriage to him.
Rosalie panicked, and, on the wedding day, ran.
She didn't really know where she was going, just that she was getting out of there and that was enough. She was wandering for a good long time before she heard that something strange was happening in Athalia. She figured, 'hey, I'll go there'.
So she did.
Other: Rosalie is highly flexible, but not very athletic. She can get tired just trying to climb a ladder, but she can swing up trees like nobody's business.
Appearance: Rosalie Is very small, standing at about 3'8", and very thin and petite. She has a fox tail and sharp teeth and claws, but otherwise is uncannily human. Gaia username:DemonDays2
Name: Isel Adat
Age: 24
Gender: Male
Personality: He's a lovable rogue. Isel cracks sarcastic jokes all the time and is always smiling. He can sometimes have a dark sense of humour, but in general is a pleasant guy...if you don't piss him off.
You don't want to see him pissed off.
Race: Some type of mutt, possibly a wolf
Country: Imeria
Weapon: A pair of magical bracers on either arm. The bracers are made of black leather for the most part, and open at the bottom of his arms, tied with leather cords. The top of the bracer has a metal triangle, the flat toward his elbow, and the point toward his hand. The triangle has wavy sides, and is split down the middle. The bracer goes up to about 8cm (3 inches, give or take) from the elbow.
The magic of the bracers comes in what they do. On command (given silently, telepathically), the two triangles will rise up along the split, forming a V shape. They can then be fired out to a distance of about 15 feet on a magical chain, which forms behind the hook as it flies. The chain can then be retracted at high speeds, or any speed Isel wishes.
Magic: Past what the bracers do, nothing,
Bio: Isel was born into a family with not much at all. He had to fight to survive, and often had to steal just to feed his family. At a young age, he fell in with a bad group of people, but eventually got out with the help of an unexpected source.
The gang he had fallen in with had attempted to attack an old man. Little did they know this guy had been a great magic user, and easily incapacitated all but Isel, whom he took in. Isel gave up his street thug days, and instead, with the magic bracers the old man had given him, became a mercenary. He worked with the airship pilots to be their security staff, and often served as an escort for merchants.
He was one of the first on the scene of the crash, wanting to investigate.
Other: Isel is VERY good with his hands, able to fix up almost anything, given some time. Thus, he would be valuable to any of the humans trying to escape.
Appearance: Isel Adat Falcea Gaia username: Blueyedemoness
Name: Filia
Age: 19
Gender: Female
Personality: Filia is a content young woman who is kind to her people and everyone around her. She likes to give someone a chance before judging them and likes to help others. She is sometimes unemotional but likes to smile a lot when not being pressured by her superiors. She is a strong woman who doesn't like being bossed around (like by her father) and seems a little defiant to some people she thinks are corrupt.
Race: Fox
Country: Falcea
Weapon: Magical sword that is in the pic
Magic: Majors in Offensive magic (in secret) but knows some healing because she does not want her father to know that she practices offensive magic.
Bio: Filia was born in a family of priests dedicated to the God of Lightning: Raiki. She has grown with very good talent and has made her family proud. Many expect great things from her and for her to make good decisions. But as a child Filia was wild and always looking for adventure until her father put a stop to that when she turned 10, the age of initiation. That was when she started practicing to become a priestess like her mother was. Her mom loved little Filia very much and did as much as she could to be a normal mother and give time to their daughter. But her mom died from (what her father told her) an illness and thus he took over the temple in her stead. It was a great loss for Filia and for a while she did not say anything. But then, as she went under training she began to talk again in order to speak to her patron god. Now she is traveling to the Main Country: Athalia after hearing some "aliens" have crashed down on their home planet.
Other: She secretly resents her father and believes he had something to do with her mother's death; he also seems to be a very respectable and high ranking leader in Falcea.

((We're just gonna start. We're gonna do a prologue-type-thing and set the stage. The prologue will be just before Earth's ship crashes on Sylvanus, when it starts malfunctioning.)) The Earth recon ship, the Arcaius, flew through the emptiness of space. It had recently come out of hyperspace, a few days trip away from its destination, as a way to not alert the enemy of their presence. They would be flying for the next few days at speeds slower than usual with their stealth devices on.Vice-captain Amy sat at her station in the bridge of the Arcaius. The communications monitor sitting in from of her was working as it should, as was everything else on the ship. However, it was currently not active.
Suddenly the ship started to rapidly lose speed. It was so sudden, most people were thrown from their seats or thrown into their monitors, including Amy. Standing back up, she looked around in surprise.
"What...?" she asked.The computer technician Elisa stared at her monitor in disbelief. "Captain! We've lost our engines and are losing power! Shields are at 50% power and falling every second! Overall power 45% and falling!" she reported.Amy looked at her monitor, which had gone black and shut off. She did all she could to try to get it to turn back on, but nothing she did helped. "Captain! We've lost our communications monitor! We can't contact Earth!"((...I'll skip Mina for now.))

Mark was on the captain's seat which was located in the middle of the control deck. His eyes were focus on the planet they were near. Suddenly the ship jercked and he was thrown out of his seat. Mark did a half roll, only managing to absorb a small amount of the impact. Mark stood up on wobbly feet, "What was that?!?" he thought, his heart starting to race.
Mark absorbed the information Elisa gave him, he bit his lip, his ship wasn't going to survive. "We need everyone to get to the emergency ecape pods NOW!" Mark commanded, and sson the crew was starting to evacuate the deck. Mark repeated his command into the speaker which transmitted the message to all rooms on the ship.

Filia was walking through the dirt path to the country of Athalia, which was to the northwest of her country, Falcea. She had recently gained a permission from Raiki, the thunder God and knew that it was destined to be somewhere in Athalia and she wanted to be there to investigate. It was something that did come somewhat often and it let her get out of her country for a while, and away from her father. He was so disgustingly corrupt (or she thought he was) and hated to have to take orders from him. So when one of her visions came up, she had the perfect excuse to leave him and have some time for herself. Besides, father must love it having me out since he then has more power and I don't hog all the attention she thought to herself. Her grey eyes being a little bit cold at the thought of her fathers greediness even when everyone in Falcea adored him as their leader.
Filia was disgusted with how everyone treated him and why they always gave him high praise. He was nothing but a murderer in her eyes since she knew he had something to do with her mother's death. But she had no proof and with everyone loving him she'd look like a crazy person or a traitor and probably get exiled or stoned to death because of it. But her father wouldn't care, he wanted a boy anyway so all he had to do was remarry, have sex and finally have the male heir for his legacy. Or he would try to find a way to stay young forever and stay at his post as High Priest of the Thunder God and Leader of Falcea.

Rosalie Keep walking.
Just keep walking.
The rain was jarring and harsh on her back and the grass was cold and spiky on her feet, and walking for three days was making her hurt all over.
But Rosalie kept walking.
One step at a time, one step at a time...
Rosalie stopped. Something had caught her eye. She turned her head upward, where she'd seen the glint. No, it hadn't been her imagination. There was something shining through the dark black storm clouds, something that WANTED to be seen. It seemed to be a shooting star, but she knew better than to believe something so simple minded. It was from the Gods. She had to be there. She HAD to see what they had sent their chosen people.
And so, her slow walk changed to a run.Goaina Goaina was trying her best to ignore those doors. She was trying her very hardest, but they were so welcoming.
We are talking, of course, about the windowed doors out onto her balcony. The paperwork she was doing at her desk was dead boring, and the cool wind on her face meant she didn't have to expand energy to cool the area around her. She hadn't been, and the room had grown to a stifling heat. Besides, nighttime was the only time she could go outside without some covering dress hiding her scales. But no, this paperwork had to be done. She had to set a good, adult example for her little sister...
Ah, screw it. She couldn't take it any longer.
Goaina stood, set her pencil down gently, and took a few long strides to the door. She unlocked the double doors and flung them open, with all the drama you can expect from an elegant princess. The wind blowing in to fill the stuffy room didn't hurt the effect, either.
Long, strong steps onto the marble balcony. Goaina put her hands on the rail, then slowly slipped to a leaning position as she looked over the kingdom. My kingdom.
The lights of the people began to go out, one by one, until there was nothing left but darkness and the light from the moon and the stars. Oh yeah, and that streaking comet-thing that glowed stark white against the navy velvet of the night sky. Goaina looked up, trying to follow the path of the comet, and realized, with some horror, that it wasn't flying. It was falling.
And it was going to fall on her kingdom.

Isel said on the balcony of his home, a small little hut that was built up in a large tree near the main path. It had three rooms: a small bedroom with this balcony attached to it (The balcony wrapped around the whole hut), a kitchen and dinning area, and a small study. He didn't mind the fact the rain was pouring onto him as he sat on a small wooden chair outside, leaned back on two legs with his feet on the railing. In fact, he loved the rain.
Something up above caught his attention. In amongst the clouds was a small flicker of...something? He couldn't tell exactly. It was just a minute flash, there one moment, gone the next. He passed it off as a trick of the light, maybe a bug, and went back to his drink, a mead-like substance in a carved wooden glass.
