    Continued from (Loyalty Is) The Source...



    The Lost decide against the quicker more expedite path outside of the Hedge to reorientation themselves, and instead choose to retrace their steps.

    The Dread Lord cannot tell left from west, but he is not alone, and it is easy for him to follow his love, and the Summer Queen, and while Circe cannot see passed the branches in her face, Rhodes and Sera do.

    Softly shimmering gold flakes catch the light whenever she moves, delicate gilded and diamond scales extenuate the luminescent sapphires that are her eyes. The ocean lives in Sera's eyes, perfectly cut sapphires, gleam in the light. Deeper shades always shifting like the tide. The scales trail up to her temples and forehead. Her hair reaches down her back, brushing the back of her calves, spun silver and gold. Perfectly placed streaks of sea green are seen throughout her hair. Very fine diamond dust falls loose from her hair when she moves, reflecting rainbows from the light. The scales on her hands are dulled by the simple fact that her hands are translucent. There was an iridescent scale like skin that pulled delicately up from her ears. The membrane shimmered and created three curly points.

    She stops, not daring to move.

    “Do you guys see that?!”
    she hisses to Rhodes and Circe. Her body tenses as she shifts her weight slightly.

    Sapphires dart around, looking for the jacket again, looking for where it went.

    The Emerald Eyes of the Dread Lord are focused on the same spot as Sera's. "I saw it. Spear. Coat. We're being hunted."

    I hate that.

    "I, for one, am more than a little sick of scrabbling around this place. I say we gate out and come back looking for the market. Cut out all this."


    Rhodes just sounds irritated at this point.

    Sera had seen a glimpse, but now her sapphires have lost where the coat, the spear's edge have gone.

    Circe's elven ears twitch, catching the sounds of footsteps, and two voices.

    "Totally saw something up here!" "Really?" "Yes!" "You sure?" "For fucksake! I did, and even if I didn't do ya thing Iron Meg'll be happy to hear one of use thought they saw something and didn't check it out?! Fuck!"

    Rhodes, thoughts occupied elsewhere, doesn't note more movement, or their arguing voices.

    If y'all want to hide then you need to beat 3suxx, Sera will take a -4 to hide.

    Rhodes suggests trying to find a Gate, it'll be a Intelligence + Investigation + Wyrd, the three of you will need to get 5suxx total between yourself, you can if you want, use Teamwork rolls to do it!

    Really?

    The urge to roll her eyes was strong, because this trip just seemed to be one bad event after another. Spiders…the party splits…they decided to not make a move on the orchid and now this.

    While he sounded irritated, he had a point.

    “I agree.”
    It was time to go.

    And she shifts her focus to finding a gate. Because if it came to it, she wasn’t going to be good at hiding, not looking like she did. So best get out.

    The Lost work together, but come up sort, the stress of the Hedge, the knowledge they were moments from discovery frazzle the sense. Hurrying through the Hedge, set of finding something, anything they could use as a Gate, but their hurry has left them exposed.

    The two patrolmen follow, now knowing that the one had seen something, had heard something.

    "Hey!" "Stop!" comes their voices as they crash into the path, the Lost were hurrying down.



    Here be those consequences,

    You can run! Turn and fight/talk! Or keep searching for the Gate....

    Well shit.

    Two options. Keep looking for a gate and hope to out run these guys. Or turn and try and charm them, allowing Rhodes and Circe to keep looking. Cause if they kept going, what’s to stop these guys from attacking or sounding an alarm?

    Sapphires look to Rhodes, with a small nod of her head. Distraction time! Look at the pretty girl!

    Turning around,

    “Oh! I’m so sorry!” comes the angelic voice. “But you two showing up is wonderful! We’ve been trying to find a Market and seem to have lost the trail.” A pout as she looks to the voices. “I’m sure you’re very busy, but if you could direct us in the right way, it would be a huge help.” Looking at them through her lashes.
