Golden Woods
ALONG THE RIDGE
You stumble through another foliage barrier along the edge of the great precipice before you, almost loosing you balance on the grabbing vines of the golden trees around you. You enter another tree-less area where light beems down over the top of Thorn Mountin high above and see three creatures sitting together smack in the center of the area, squinting up at you silently from their intelligent eyes....
You hesitantly make your way over to the middle creature and extend a hand toward it, edging closer and attracting its attention. It simply stares at your proferred hand, seemingly in deep thought. After several long moments, the odd mix of mammal and avian extends a foreclaw and grips your hand, shaking it firmly. This is not what you expected, and when the creature speaks you are even more thrown by it!
"Hile, wanderer!" The creatures voice has the lovely, full note that speaks of its maturity. The look it gives you, wary but unafraid, is another clue that it has had experience with many visitors before yourself. Tenatively, you ask it who, and what, it is. "Oh! You are confused! I am Shicsa'ura'rayfox, or Love On Wings, and I am a Qualiron!" She seems very proud of herself, cracking a big grin that seems to light up the golden meadow even more. "You wonder what is a Qualiron...do you not? I am a Qualiron! And so are my quiet companions...." You look over at the other Qualirons and see that the others are either muchmuch larger or much smaller, but both are also much quieter than the speaking female.
The Qualiron continues as the larger just watches you with mute interest and the smaller preens silently. The Shicsa motions to the large female. "Her name is Dachaerra. We are not sure of the meaning of this name, but it is in the Valarin tongue - the speech of the angels! She may be quiet, but she is also very quick of wit, when you can get her to speak at all!" Shicsa' looks at the younger, but larger, Qualiron and smiles sweetly - a look of near-sisterly affection, and then to the other, smaller female with equal love. "She is Tacarea, another Valarin name. She's very new here, and very quiet, but we think she may liven up a touch as time passes.... Our kind are of the Tribe of intelligent Qualirons, the Tribe of Hidden Ivy. There are others not from our lands. They are wild and live on instinct, unable to talk or be tamed. Our kind live in constant danger from them, and so it is not good for young ones to remain with the Tribe for long. So, that is how Dach', Tacy and I come to be here! Azrielen found me at one of the common haunts, needing a home desperately, and so the leaders of the Tribe turned me over to her care permanently! And then came little Dach in her egg! But now she is very much so grown up! And Tacy is brand new...we're a band of three!" You move closer and touch the pretty, quiet large Qualiron, stroking her scaled skin and fured coat, watching the soft scales glitter and reflect the light all around it. The other looks at you with a kind of tredidation and shyness, and you forgo stroking her like you did the others.....
She continues. "You can now search and adopt more of our kind! You must start at the gates to Lady Sirah's Realm and find the hidden trail that will lead you trought the dangerous woodlands to the land of the Tribe of Hidden Ivy. Begin your search now brave travlor, and perhaps you shall take along one of our brothers or sister!" The odd creatures smile their brilliant smiles and the middle female bids you goodbye before they take wing and head upwards into the sun where you can no longer follow their progress.....
The golden grove now deserted, you feel a need to move on...
You feel drawn toward the distant sound of roaring waters, and can make the choice to move toward the sound, or to deny your desires and move away, travelling farther down the edge of the ridge. And then there is always the possibility of harnessing the powers whirling around you and to teleport back to the crossroads...
