"Mother.. Ah, yes! Now I know what made me want to show you. She was a Star Goddess, yes? I could feel her presence even deep underground."
"Yeah, they call her Starsong. Well, she's not as much responsible for the stars now. But she still has the name. Now she's a minor goddess of music and healing. Apparently being responsible for the stars wasn't particularly conducive to having time to raise a family. So now my mom and dad do troubleshooting for Yggdrasil."
"Deep underground, huh? That's interesting. I wonder how..."
Her words trailed off as she stopped to consider all of the implications of that statement.
Ruji, Guardian Tressym |
"Like how an entire constellation is really a living creature that decided to settle with a family living in an inner world while in the form of a winged kitten? Granted, I've moved on to the form of a full-grown cat now..."
Ruji's eyes flash in the night at he glances back at the Club.
"So many things seem to be happening today. It's a wonder things make sense at all."
Ruji, Guardian Tressym |
"Ah, what you said makes more sense then. Nevermind." He images with a purr.

1. Barely. Work's good, but busy as [BLEEP].
2. Interesting concept. Nice way to play an awakened druid animal companion, if you were of the mindset.Ruji, Guardian Tressym |

1. Good to hear it's going good for you.
2. You don't even need the spell awaken. Noble animals are the really smart kind, like the owls from Legend of the Guardians.narrator |

Good Lord! Even the PDF is expensive!
Not really sure I have a good feel for what kind of game that would be. I know we're talking about animals, but like Redwall or like playing the horse in Tangled (can't remember its name, but it may be my favorite character in that movie) sort of thing?
narrator |
It was my very first purchase from Paizo(the hardback)! :)
I have no idea what Redwall is, but if you have seen either the Secret of Nimh or Legend of the Guardians, it's more like that.
EDIT: If you haven't, think of Agartha except Aananda was a lizard(with dragon blood).
Redwall is the first of a long series of books by Brian Jacques. The first three are good, but after that it gets a bit repetitive. Similar to the Secret of Nimh.
And thanks, that gives me a pretty good idea of what you're going for.
Ruji, Guardian Tressym |
After a while, Ruji glances back at the Club, then hops up onto Arielle's shoulders.
"Look at the sky again, and watch the patterns the stars make as they move.."
Eyes glowing, Ruji looks up at the stars. They begin to move, slowly at first, than much faster. Watching closely, ancient stories can be seen..
Alaina, the Fire Flower |
Going to get caught up on things here
Alaina awakes in her master suite, covered in silken sheets. She yawns and winces, a million pinprickles racing down her lean form. She looks about and notices something strange. Her bedroom is dusty, as if it hasn't been cleaned in months. Cobwebs descend from the ceiling like pale strands of Spanish moss. A vase of brittle dried flowers sit at her bedside. The silent form of Acme sits quietly in one corner.
"Huh?"
Ruji, Guardian Tressym |
Arielle reluctantly pulls her attention away from the stars and stretches out stiff muscles.
"Wow. How long have I been standing here?"
Ruji stretches like only a cat can: in an extremely exagerrated way.
"Ooh.. let's see, thirty 'pages' in the star stories turns into.. 30 days. I honestly didn't expect them to take so long getting this 'real apology' ready.." He starts walking back toward the Club, passing a package on the way. "You might want to put it on before you walk back in. Your boyfrined would be sad if you weren't wearing the present he got you for this occasion."
"Taron owes me a halibut for this..."
Arielle |
Arielle walked over to the package curiously and opened it, her eyes going wide as she saw the contents. She pulled it out of the box and gently ran her hands over the soft, swishy material. It was beautiful. Like a piece of sky in dress form. She carried it carefully over to a cabana and changed, admiring the way the skirts swirled around her ankles.
She went back into the club, smiling brightly as she looked for Canis to thank him for the gift.
Little Kiba |
LK kicks away from the wall he's leaning against and strides over with a nervous smile. He stops a few feet away to just look at Arielle.
"You look as exquisite as always."

She smiled and spun around for him.
"Why thank you. And thank you for the dress. It's beautiful. Like a piece of sky."She stepped towards him and lightly kissed his cheek.
"It's a very thoughtful present."
Little Kiba |
Face reddening ever so slightly, LK returns the kiss.
"It had to be. I can't pull something like this off every time I pull a prank that isn't appreciated."
"You got that right." Ruji images as he strolls by with a full-grown halibut in his mouth.
"Okay.." LK says as he watches the spectacle. "Anyway, I've got something to ask you." He gestures to the dance floor and the crowd around it. "Since this is as much a reunion as an apology, what dance would you like to start with and would you like to lead?"
Devlyn, the Dalesman |
She gasped in surprise as her usually clumsy on the dance floor boyfriend spun her around in time to the music.
"You learned how to dance!" she gasped, surprised and laughing with sheer delight.
It's a Tuesday Miracle!!!! It's about time we got some of those lessons to finally stick...:P
Little Kiba |
She gasped in surprise as her usually clumsy on the dance floor boyfriend spun her around in time to the music.
"You learned how to dance!" she gasped, surprised and laughing with sheer delight.
"I didn't spend a month of torture not being able to talk to for nothing!" He says as he dips her. "Having to wear these shoes didn't help either."
[Trot Trot Trot]
Wolf Trot? :p

Well, loping was too fast, and walking was too slow. I was shooting for that casual, not-quite jogging kinda motion, neh? You know - mellow... ;)
Taron Sunwake |
"Medium rare then." Taron says as he goes into the kitchens to cook a steak over an open psi-flame. He comes back a few minutes later carrying what appears to be a porterhouse steak. He sets it down in front of Rune and relaxes in an adjacent lawn chair.
"Okay, how much time do Kam and I have to prepare for my family's, or at least my dad's, arrival?"

"It really took that long? You did that for me?" she said, tearing up just a little. "That's the sweetest most wonderful thing anyone has ever done for me."
Her smile was radiant as she twirled away and then back towards him.

"This?" He says as they dance. "No, getting the shinies so you could have your mother beats this by a long shot. I did that because I had a crush on you and wanted to, not because I dumped ice water on you and wanted to apologize."
"Which reminds me, you only get wet when you want to, so why did the ice water even work?" He asks with a grin.

"Okay, fair point, but I didn't really think of that as doing something for me. I always thought of it as helping my mom. But when you put it that way, you're absolutely right."
She grimaced. "As for the ice water....you really haven't figured it out? The not getting wet thing...I have to be concentrating on it for even a fraction of a second first. I really didn't see it coming. At all."
She leaned her head on his shoulder. "It's a good thing for you that I love you or you'd have really had a fight on your hands then."

Rune sniffs around the plate, as if trying to find something.

"I guess we don't know each other entirely yet, huh? That's a great thing, keeps us from being boring." He says as the music slows. "And it wouldn't have been a fight, it would have been a 'don't get hit by Arielle'. It would take some powerful enchantments to make me fight you." He whispers the last part softly, barely loud enough to be heard over the song.
Taron Sunwake |
Rune sniffs around the plate, as if trying to find something.
Taron wiggles a finger at the lupine from the heaves.
"Tsk tsk. You didn't think I'd give you the steak sauce with the steak, did you?" He holds up a bottle of very good Agarthian steak sauce. "You get the rest of the treat when you do the trick."
"Or perhaps you have thumbs now and need a fork?"
