He sighed, a shake of his head when Rhodes asked if he'd rather be lied to. "No, I was just deceiving myself to push away the fear and doubts. Seems we have an invitation, would be rude not to take it, no?" His lips curled into a smirk as he followed Rhodes' unable to help the bit of gallows humour from slipping out, not messing with the dream further in case there was an interaction or they lost their path forward.

Taking a deep calming breath, gathering her mind, closing her eyes and focusing all of her strength putting her essence into it she didn't wanna be left behind she wanted to be of aid. Expending every last ounce of her energy as she places her arms over her chest falling backwards hoping that this time she would fall through the water and emerge dry with her companions and hopefully be of some aid to them.

Mantle - Chilling breeze, summoning tiny leaves
Rhodes was already walking towards the gate. "Naturally," he called out, not turning around or breaking stride. Ignoring the fear that he was feeling.
Maybe he could change small things. A small shift in the dream. Like.... a change in season. the Trees from their summer growth to Autumn fall.

Yamiyo
Finally after trying and failing to gain purchase outside of her own dream, the Succubus, forces her will to open the path linking her dream to the tangled webs of others.
She falls.
Suspended in the inky blackness, of a unlit sky, she's finds herself above the unending sea. A single pair of arms are flailing above the water, as the only sound to echo around the Dream is that of the broken gasps of someone hunting for air.
This is Still Intensity 5! Remember the Oneiromancy Primer can be a huge help! But if you're stuck here's a quick few points to keep in mind through all the Dreams going forward. Though the last one might be hard to do as out Dream is currently under the waves....
You could try and learn more about the dreamer. You could try and guide the dreamer into a different sort of dream (glamour). You could try to lower or raise the intensity of the dream (glamour). All of which would be wits+wyrd+empathy. Or you could try and interact with the dreamer/dream as you would someone in the waking world (like talk to them, etc.)
James and Rhodes
Despite the still hardened nature of the Dream, the Dread Lord and Oneimancer flexes his skills, and soon, the Lost see the bountiful greenery shudder, slowly dying itself in hues of reds and yellows and those in between. A great wind bellows into the clearing, shaking the gate and causing it to swing back and forth on the hinges, handfuls of dead leaves scatter, dropping to the ground.
The gate gives another heave as it hits the fence posts, crashing into, wedging itself upon it, now. Completely open. The pair hear howls and yowls from the winding path beyond.
Remember the Dream Intensity when you roll to interact with the Dream!

"Here come the hounds. I don't think we're welcome here but I'm following your lead." James would step through the door if Rhodes' did, keeping next to him as they walked casually through the gate. James focused on the fabric of the dream again, blurring the edges some more deconstructing it by adding his own threads, his own connections to it making the dream less than the dreamers while it remained in tact.

Mantle (spring)Gasping out for air, the new dream she had entered or perhaps her current place of reality feeling far more real than anything she previously had experienced whilst walking the dreams. Light fear catching her as she tries to remain above the water.
Looking around, listening wondering if she had gotten to the right place or not. Her eyes searching for her companions not that it would do much in this kind of darkness, instead using her ears to try and listen for them hoping that they would be here, she had hoped to arrive close to them at least.
It wasn't long though until her focus came to be upon the flailing arms and the gasping for air, still she doubted it was her companions and did not truly know where she was as such keeping a healthy distance seemed the best course of action here.
From what I read in the primer so did most things take quite a bit of time to do and her primary objective is to try and find Rhodes and James again as such none of the actions seemed appropriate.

Rhodes does, in fact, continue making his way forward. His green eyes are focused on the path ahead and he marches through the gate and along the path. Towards the danger. Towards the Hounds.
His hands are outstretched towards the trees on both sides, continuing his manipulations of the dream around them.
The falling leaves begin to catch alight, spreading to the trees. Slowly, fire spreads.
Make a scene.

Yamiyo does nothing as the Dreamer below her continues to drown.
Due to the nature of PbP we're willing to accelerate things. As we have been for the entire plot, and why I asked for simple Wis+Wyrd+Empathy rolls to help speed things along. LadySin the wiki and I have listed things that you can do.
With James and Rhodes, once more the solid nature of the Dream shifts, softening more then simply around the edges. The autumnal scene now, takes on a tone more akin to a watercolour then the harshness of reality.
Then, all of those red fire autumn leaves are so in truth. The ignites with hardly any effort for the Oneimancer, and the flames wick away sparking and catching and causing the forest beyond to burn
The two Lost hear something now, something loud and guttural. A growling, in stereo. From behind them. Creeping low from the shadows of branches behind them. Then, impossibly loud and shaking the Dream to the Core.
I know you're here. Stop cowering flower, and run. Run like you ran before!
Comes the Huntsmen, towering giant tall. Using his nose and his hounds to scent out the interlopers.
The Dream Intensity for the Clearing Dream is now 3!

“I don’t know what your plan is, I don’t even know if I’m capable of hiding in here for a sneak attack but it seems like it’s time to fight. Unless I can do something else…” He furrowed his brow with a thought thinking it might be worth a shot, use the dreams logic against itself. If they were tracking them by scent he could have their scent drag along the wind and lead the hounds astray. He was wondering if dream cold iron would effect the dream manifestation of the true fae in anyway. He supposed he was about to find out.
James tries to draw the hounds off by leading them on a false trail

Mantle (spring)Watching the events unfold around her, she knew this wasn't real but still it was hard to see someone drown and with the strength of this dream so did it all feel far to real for her. Taking deep breaths to try and put those thoughts out of her head as she tries to learn about the dreamer to know how to travel on.
Although the dream was not her domain at all.
Sighing out in anger, in a desperate attempt screaming out for one of her name brothers hoping there would be one that could hear her that she could convince to help her travel to where she wants to go as she herself would never be able to handle this alone. Not that she knew how to find them or if they even listened at all.
