Welcome to Gaia! ::

Agree to the tests

Phaedra had honestly never cared about the kitsune's grievance. Curiosity about the mystery stolen item was the only reason she'd come. Always eager for more magical knowledge and experiences, she wanted to see what the witch was hiding in these swamps. Now the witch was straight up bribing them with treasure to leave-and she was on board with that concept. After all this effort it'd be great not to go home emptyhooved. It seemed a little too good to be true though... Hopefully this wasn't a trick. Phaedra would keep her eyes and mind as sharp as she could.

Reasonably was in short supply wasnt it? What was stolen was unknown and now they were being subjected to tests? Annoying. She didnt need to pick fron any treasures still she did want to help the kitsune if only to prevent him from comming back agian. "I'll take your test but to find out what caused all this"

Luna bit her lip clearly both parties were unwilling to listen to each other. Trying to put on a brave front she stepped forward. "I'll agree to the tests," hopefully her actions would help the kitsune.

Dubhghall listened to the Witch as they explained the trial and how they wanted a yellow bloom. That wasn't really specific as they could be tons of yellow blooms and all be different. They just hoped that the Witch wasn't going to be picky about the yellow bloom that they find since they weren't given a whole lot of details about it. They nodded about the warning and looked at the three paths. The center path seemed nice since it was right before them but something about the right path drew their eye. Taking once last look at all of the paths they began to head for the right one.

Right

Right

So their test was fetching a flower while minding the same swamp rules they'd been using this whole time. If this was genuinely the test and not just a trick to get rid if them it should be easy as cake. There was only one way to find out. Phaedra was a creature of habit and chose right like she had this whole venture.

Luna stood at the crossroads and looked at the three available paths. None of the paths was remarkable or gave her a feeling of foreboding. She would have to blindly choose a path and hope luck was on her side. She walked toward the left path.
Left Path.

Going left, you immediately notice a change in the air and the smells surrounding you. It's as if the season has abruptly changed and as you proceed you notice what seems to be...snow under your hooves. It certainly feels like snow, and the air is a bit nippy, though not truly cold, fortunately. Here and there flowers and grasses poke through, though none of them look like a yellow bloom.
Coming into a small clearing, you spy a snow fort, just like what you might have made yourself as a foal. Would it hurt to duck inside just to take a look?
Enter the snow fort?
Walk past it?
Go back and choose a different path?




Going right, you immediately notice a change in the air and the smells surrounding you. It's as if the season has abruptly changed and as you continue, it's easy to notice that there are leaves on the ground of all kinds of colors. The leaves crunch under your hooves as you continue, and you also begin to notice a flickering in the trees to your left, though when you turn to look you see nothing.
After a little more walking you come to a cave. It's dim inside, but not totally dark, so at least you'll be able to see if you proceed. You also see a thin and bramble-filled path leading off to the side of the cave.
Go into the cave?
Take the path?
Go back and choose another path?




Going straight down the middle, you immediately notice a change in the air and the smells surrounding you. It's as if the season has abruptly changed and as you continue, you see you're walking on a soft surface covered in pink and white petals, though it doesn't seem as if the trees surrounding you could possibly have produced such things. It's very nice and comfortable, tempting to lie down and take a rest even, but you're determined to move forward and besides...there seem to be things in the trees following you.
After a little more walking you come to a meadow with lush green grass and small white and purple flowers. The sun is shining down warmly and that grass looks very tempting. Would it really be so bad just to rest for a few minutes?
Lie down and rest?
Resist the urge and continue on?
Go back and choose a different path?
