Welcome to Gaia! ::

This is an open rp where Kaito will travel around the water tribe searching for others to join him on his Journey. Anyone in the area is welcome to post here, you do not have to commit to the journey as I would like him to get rejected by others as well as his idea accepted by those.

This will also be a place where Kaito is trying to advertise his journey via word of mouth. This rp will always be going on for, I will be using this for when Kaito also returns from his trip.

Kaito will also need to make some connections with possible scribes and merchants for parts of his journey when he returns. I would like for that to happen here. Possible balam to help him record his findings as well as maybe a connection for merchants to trade goods with for supplying for other parts of his journey.

The day was crisp and new, and the wind balam known to most as Jolly Rodger or more often 'Hook' wonder the streets of the colony. It was new and full of opportunity, and another day to be at work. It was a good thing that Killian decided to start the day with the sun did.

There was a lot to do...

It admittedly had been sometime that Hook had ventured and been in the water capital, 'mirro te weaver'. The 'mirror of the weaver', they told him that is what it meant in their language, because of prosperous lake that boarder their capital. It was so clear and crisp, it took on the appearance of a Mirror. So It was a fitting name, after all the wind b'alam did notice how it took on such a trait when he first flew over head. It had been in the start of his journey to learn how to 'read'. And so far the trip had been a success. Hook was becoming rather skilled in deciphering words and creating text. He found it would be a necessity, in his own journey, if he had plans to someway record all that he had seen; because it was gonna be a lot.

While in his adventures in the water capital, Hook had gathered a nice little stash of trinkets-all traded for, of course. Just because he shared the same traits with his phen and phal, didn't mean that he stole...all the time, like most. Most of the items he had come across were for his 'brother', anyways. Killian couldn't imagine Chronos, being too overly found of having something as a gift-if he knew Hook had stolen it. (However in truth, he knew his brother would happily receive anything from him.) So just as his first trade with his brother, he made it a effort to try and make fair wager with others as well.

Walking the streets of the capital, Hook smiled as he looked at the start of what he knew would be a grand place. Given time, and when more are woven and awakened, it was sure to be bustling. Though for now, he walked among the eve of it's creation and the start of it's construction. Still Water was a great leader, the clan was going to go far. It would be something to consider when his plans were fully put into motion. Which, hopefully would be soon.

A brown bolf dawning a red cap sat on the wind b'alam's back and shoulder. Perched carefully on Hook's bundle and bounty, it held his friend's prized lantern with both paws. The cherished trinket swung ever so slightly on it's hinges, with every uneven step made by the tahtll. The soft clink of metal tapping on stone with each placement of paw and hook. His next goal would be to travel to the earth tribe, and have words with a pink and brown Magus. It was told that the weaver had blessed him enough strength to move and carve the earth without the use of his paws. But, what would he have to trade in return for what he had in plan, or even if it was possible. The Water tribe's trade of knowledge was on the bases that he would gather information on his travels, which was something he had already had planned on doing so. The trade was made easily enough, but what would one of Earth want? Perhaps a problem for another time...He still would need to find others to join him as crew. Again, something to think about later...

"Steady now, Mr Smee..." Left Hook as he made a upward glance to his friend, that had been given to him by the Dark Tribe Magus. A gift he was thankful for, but....It's reason he only hoped to have been on better terms. Well, that is to say it wasn't given on good terms, but rather 'why' it was given shoulder have been on better terms. Let's just say, next time he sees a nahtill he is interested in, best not to touch (Well, maybe.)....especially if it's the soul-bound of another. Even if she is gold and shinny, as well as hair as black as night....

Erhem....

He couldn't afford to loose another paw, as much as his brother would enjoy having another member to play with. It was hard enough getting around with only three, even if he did have a fancy hook for a paw. It was still not very pleasant to get around with. It hurt at times...

Tan tail swished behind Hook, in his uneven saunter. Blue eyes took in the sight of another tahtll. Taking in the tuffs of his ears and noticing the blue orbs, on his crown and paws. It was a telling sign that he was one of the water tribe, of course he would be. KIllian was in the water tribe's home, surely there were going to be more water tribe members, he was the abnormal one after all. Though, he did meet one other like him, but Chaucer wasn't woven in the wind territory but rather here in the water tribe, and called it home. However, he did lacked a certain kind of 'tone' in his voice, but yet share their language in parts. (As Chronos would say: It was fascinating!) At any case, Hook knew the look that rested in the other b'alam's gaze, it was a look of determination, wonder. It was one of daydreaming wanderlust. Surely, he was going to go far in b'alam.

There was a shift of his white wings, the bundle on his back shifted ever so slightly. Mr. Smee let out a little bark to the movement, as if to warn his. Killian's sky-blue eyes where sure to matched the other as the started to passed. A smirk rested on the b'alam's maw as he recognized the look. Oh, he knew that look very well. It was one that searched and hungered for adventure.

There was a flick of tip of his tail...

Dreogan had been woven the night of a blood moon along with three others. There was no relation to the others, at least not for him and this much he was aware. He was aware of no others to which he would call family. He had been aware of a great many things, though he was uncertain as to why that was. He was sure he would find out in time. It hadn't been long since his awakening but long enough for him to get caught up on things and make his presence known. Not that he was striving for attention. If anything he was trying to prevent having any. It wasn't that he didn't want to socialize it was just something he needed to do for himself.

Lavender eyes watched as others walked through the streets and entered shops or residences. He hadn't found his place yet within the Capitol, but he was certain he would find his calling. It was just going to take time.

Time was something he could deal with. Time was always constant, always there. When it came to others however, they would never be constant, never be there. He wasn't entirely sure if that was something to be sad about or not. He paused as he came across a shop that specialized in mirrors and looked at his reflection for a moment. Permanent tear stains marked his face while claw and bite marks covered the rest of him. They were all part of who he was woven to be. They weren't from an epic war between two clans but merely what he was woven with. He was sure he could come up with some elaborate tale of heroism and chivalry but he wasn't the story telling type.

Ears flicked slightly and his gaze turned to look upon Kaito appeared walking through the streets towards him. He hadn't spoken to him yet but had seen him before, though not close up. Eyes turned and watched as a winged balam with a blof came into view from around a corner. He stayed where he was. Perhaps he'd be left out of any conversation.

If there was someone who enjoyed a good flight it was Luminara. She was woven for this type of thing, flying that was. She was also scroll smart but beyond that the female had much to learn and much to see. She was, currently, trying to seek out the different tribes and see what their capitols looked like. A sort of bucket list if you will. She was full of curiosity and wanted to read the scrolls from each library and learn more about what makes each of them tick. Perhaps she'd uncover why some had rivalries against the others.

She shifted her wings slightly as she walked along the cobbled path and pale eyes glinted when she spotted Killian. He wasn't hard to pick out in a crowd, at least not here. She knew who he was mainly because of his hooked paw. Not many had one of those, that and his dark locks. He was a looker and she liked to look, though it wasn't something she'd ever tell him of course. A girl could dream.

She smiled as she approached the water balam that had called out to Killian. "Hello." She said lightly as she turned her gaze then to Killian and his Bolf. "What have you got there?" She said with a sly grin pointing to the lantern the Bolf carried.

The dark colored Tahtll watched as a pale winged Nantlil joined the two ahead and it was his observation that the longer he stood there, the more that appeared. He figured he might as well head over there and see what was going on, what would it hurt?

With that he let out a small sigh and moved forward to join the two winged tribe and single water tribe B'alam. His dark gaze watched the trio and he did his best impression of a smile as he came within speaking range of them. "I'm not interrupting anything am I?" He hoped he wasn't anyway.

"You're first mate? Well, he's very lovely. Does he have a name?" She said with a smile as she admired the bolf with pale eyes. She then turned her gaze back to the Tahtll's before her and was about to speak when a dark Tahtll joined their presence. "No, you're actually just in time. I was about to state my name." She said giving him a warm smile. "My name is Luminara." She said looking between the trio. She HAD noticed the sack upon the others back but hadn't really thought too much about prying into what he had. It was rude to do that. At least to some it could seem rude.

Hook's blue eyes took at a glance the third and second Tahtll to show up to the group. Admittedly it was a bit amusing to see how quickly one b'alam seeking his attention, suddenly became three.

The wind traveler could only smile as the other approached.

Nodding carefully to not jar Mr. Smee (too much), his eyes turned back to the Nahtill.

"Thank ye, lass." Hook answered, and the small bolf made a little bark. Which caused Killian to look up at him at a glance. "And I believe Mr. Smee, would say the same." He added with a chuckle, his tan tail shifted a little in thought.

The Bolf Made a little nod of his head. The over sized cap on his head shifted ever so slightly, and the lantern held in his paw swung, letting out a metallic squeak. His little hind paws shifted his body to get a better look at Luminara.

"Well, Met. Phen Luminara." The Wind b'alam smiled and gave another respectful nod. It was certainty refreshing to see one of his kin, it had been a while, since he had seen another feathered wing. (Phen: means Sister for fellow wind tribers) Eyes pulled themselves off of the Nahtill to turned back to the first white Tahtll he had crossed paths with. Nahtil had always seemed to be a distraction to savvy, wind sailer known as Hook. Call him a romantic-but he was still hopeful to find his other half one day. Just like the Lord Gabriel had with the lovely Marie.

His name was Kaito, he was next to speak. Killian's amused smile looked back to the Water Triber. Ah, so he did seek adventure. Well, He certainty had a lot to say. Hook's brow raised, as he was intrigued to see and hear of another another that wished to travel the land. That and he was certain to ask him for help, and tips?

"A pleasure for the offer, Mate. But My way travel is a bit different." Killian went on, and let his smile turn into a more understanding one. " You see..." There was a little shift of his wings.

"So If I may decline your offer..." Killian was kind in his words, he just had his own plans and something to start and finish. Though that wasn't to say, he wouldn't help. Kaito was after all, the only other adventurer to meet.


" I however, do admire your ambition, surely with that alone you add you in helping complete your journey." Hook spoke, his left paw raised and took a groom at his chin. Taking in a thoughtful moment to think of something or a few somethings that might aid Kaito in his journey. There was so meany questions of his to answer, far too meany to address politely right away. He was of the water, and couldn't fly. So his joinery would be different. Harder then Jolly's....

"It would be wise to travel light." The B'alam went on to suggest. It was how Hook always flew. "Take what you can from the land, it is there to be used after all." He was once again quick to smirk. If he did that, there would be no reason to keep something from rotting. After all, Hook found that out with the sugar cane he kept in a jar.....Which did turn into a delightful drink.

"And, I think starting off at the earth tribe, is a good start." Hook let his paw slip from his chin and he let a 'hmm', escape his maw. He was going to seek out one of the earth magus for an offer, as there was two...but the one he wanted to talk to lived apart from the one that lived closest to the water tribe and heard tell was in the desert.

"May I asked which Earth tribe do you seek to start your heading at?" If it was the one near the sands, he could offer to send word of his group.

"Thank you, Luminara." Killian smiled as it seemed his reputation had started to proceed him. Though it was common for Hook to be pretty much everywhere. After the Water tribe, he was going to return back home to the dark tribe. Though, needless to say it was quite the compliment given to him, to have another set claim to his skill.

"It seems my reputation has gone before my wings." The wing b'alam grinned and raised a dark eyebrow with his smug smile. His tail then shifted behind him as he turned his attention back to Kaito and what could be assumed as his Yoliliztl, his mate. He answered in kind to her name with a respectful nod of acknowledgement.

"-Hook" Killian smile as Kaito, started to make a guess at his name. "Simply enough, Just 'Hook.'" The wind b'alam lifted the hook paw with a smirk. It was simple and seemed to suite him. That and it wasn't easy to forget with the blasted thing sticking out like a sore wing. He offered a smile to the darker water b'alam, Dreogan. His dark pelt would be calibrated in perhaps the dark tribe. At least he knew his brother would find it 'Fascinating'.

"Well, if you do have your mind set on the earth tribe..." Killian started and with a shift of his wings, Mr. Smee hopped off his back. In another second a piece of parchment was rivaled from the satchel on his back.

"May I suggest the main capital, it's just north of here." Just as the b'alam spoke the parchment float before the tahtll, and it unrolled it's self. What was written on it was a vary neatly drawn map of a uncompleted b'alam. However, a few land marks where accurately placed. The makings of the forest above a vast lake, with some strange writing-if he could read, it said simple 'Earth capital' and 'water capital'. There was some dark, vary detailed mountains that had the title 'Dark tribe'. Above that was some 'triangle' markings, that could be assumed as mountains as well. On the bottom of the map, there was what looked to be the start of some detail, but was still for the most part not completed along with the rest of the map.

"It's a work in progress, but I think it may be a good start for you and with determination, completed someday." Hook suggested. Rolling it up once more. The parchment was then and offered to Kaito in a friendly floating exchange.

"To one traveler from another."

He honestly wanted to get out of here, but not anytime too soon. He had things he wanted to accomplish first and then he wouldn't mind setting out on a sort of adventure and learn more about the world around him. For now though, he was still unsure of a few things and didn't want to go out and about without really understanding what his purpose was.

He listened and watched as Hook and Kaito exchanged words and her could see himself doing such a thing in the future. Traveling, though he wondered if he should just start now? He'd have to give it some thought and see when Kaito was planning on leaving and then make a decision from there. "When were you planning on heading out?" He asked curiously.

"It's a pleasure to meet you too Keilei." She said warmly in response to her. She cocked her head slightly and her wings shifted when she asked her if she could speak to her alone. She gave a small smile and a nod of her head to the Tahtlls and moved away from the rest of the group to be with Keilej. "What did you wish to talk to me about?" She said with a warm smile as she wondered what she might want to ask her.

Her wings shifted against her side and she allowed the earlier conversation they had to sink in a little. She had traveled a little, but nothing too far out of reach for her. She had done it all alone though and perhaps traveling in a group would be a lot more fun. She'd have to think on it. Her attention however returned to Kaito's mate as she waited for her to speak.
