Sinbrilee | Dreaming | Death


Art by Rica.

The city is lit by a warm orange glow, there are thousands of lanterns lit and burning brightly to ward off the gathering dark. It was once a grand, thriving place, and it's obvious by the quality of the Greco-Roman architecture, the high sweeping columns of white marble, the beautifully paved roads. There are aqueducts throughout the city that look as if they could be put to use today. In fact, if it weren't for the fact that the city's spent the last few hundred years underwater, it looks quite liveable. This city is entirely open to exploration, so feel free to send your character out to their heart's content. Remember, certain doorways will lead your characters into either Death or the Dreaming and these markings won't always be visible to them, so they should take care and be vigilant at all times!

Note: A separate post will be made for the events of the Bacchanal later in the month.

[That? Nets an actual smile from Enjolras. It's GOOD to see her enthusiasm here. She is infectious certainly. ] I HAVE heard some people have been finding several things. This appeared for me in the death realms. [And he's showing the waistcoat off a bit.] I hardly know what I am going to DO with it but its presence alone, well it hardly surprises me that there are other treasures to be found. Have you come across anything specific yet?

[kazilik]

Oh, that is very fine: it suits you quite well, I think. Temeraire will be glad of it. [She nudges it with her snout approvingly.]

I have found a great many jewels, and some tapestries.

[solo_patria]

Do you suppose he will? I'd not considered anyone would truly notice somehow. [But it's kind of nice anyway, the approval. It makes it feel like whatever...weirdness Enjolras walked through has a tangible result or something along those lines.]

Have you really? Just abandoned? That IS remarkable.

[kazilik]

Oh, of course he will; only look at all the lovely braid.

Yes, the people here have said I may take what I wish, so I am. Do you suppose they are people, or are they kedan? I do not think I have ever seen anyone like them before.

[solo_patria]

I shall certainly have to show him then, as soon as I can do so.

People or kedan...or something else entirely? [there is that possibility too, of course, as it occurs to him.] I agree with you at any rate, neither have I.

[kazilik]

It is a very strange place, but I suppose I like it well enough.

[solo_patria]

It DOES have its moments, does it not?

[kazilik]

Yes! Have you found anything you like, here?

[solo_patria]

As of the moment, not yet. I've been rather caught up in...those other doors. [And Enjolras is shrugging at her a bit.] But it is much better here. I would not mind looking, myself.

[kazilik]

I shall look with you, if you like! You may help me if anything spills.

[solo_patria]

I can manage that of course. It has been sometime since we spoke. Have you been well aside the temporary changes?

[kazilik]

Oh, well enough, I have gone flying with Korra. Are you well? [She crouches and gives him a bit of an anxious nudge, looking him over.]

[solo_patria]

Much better now. Or getting there.

[Enjolras is not sure how to explain it entirely, what's happened to him lately but...]

The death land portal here managed to catch me up a bit, and another friend. It was a little jarring but it's...helped I think as odd as that must seem. But flying, truly! I shall have to watch a race soon, you and Temeraire.

[kazilik]

[She's giving him another nudge, curling around him a little.]

You might fly with me, of course, any time you wish. Though I expect Temeraire would want you to take part in the race.

[solo_patria]

[And Enjolras is, despite most odds, and in public place, leaning into the curling just a little.]

I would quite like that yes. It would hardly be fair for the race I suppose. I am promised to Temeraire's crew already, but for anything else!

[kazilik]

[Good, she gives him a friendly nuzzle, in that case.]

Excellent, we can go when ever you wish, I should think.

[solo_patria]

Quite soon I would hope. The last time Temeraire gave us a ride was when everyone's powers were sapped. It did lose something of the desired effect.

[And there is a part of Enjolras that just wants to let go, the way a proper flight seems like it would let him.]

Whenever would suit you of course.

[kazilik]

Oh, well, it will certainly be better than that.

[She gives him another gentle nudge.]

I do not mind, it is not as though I have much to do, at all.

[solo_patria]

I can well imagine. It seems...enjoyable certainly.

[Translation? Enjolras is pretty much thrill seeking on this point.]

I suppose that IS true of many of us here.

[kazilik]

It is, most certainly!

[solo_patria]

Well then. I quite look forward to it. Will you be very fast?

[kazilik]

Oh, as fast as you would like me to be, I should think.

[solo_patria]

Wonderful. [And he's actually grinning here, before ducking his head to confess.] I've found I quite like that sort of thing, taking on risks, even those that only seem like them.

[kazilik]

[She just gives him a bit of a nudge there.] I do not think there is anything wrong with that, flying is quite exciting!

[solo_patria]

So it seems! [And he is laughing just a little here, nudging her back a bit though he doesn't think that she will feel it.] I'll quite like seeing for myself.
