Yes, but it's slippery, rather like a slug.

Maya will turn when she does it, though, seeing as how she's currently unaware of it and is now having her attention brought to it by some sort of weird mid-air grooming.

Blink.

Elleira tosses it away as soon as it's in her hand.

Then Maya will look vaguely disgusted but they will continue on their way. And they will pass over another building where the roof is covered in a weird watery mass.

"… Okay, if they're all like this then where are we aiming?"

Permalink

"As far out as we can get."

Permalink

"Right," she says. "That will be quite far since I can probably keep this up for a while. Haven't found a limit yet."

Permalink

Onwards they soar.

Permalink

And the rain eventually stops and they're back over the forest and Maya suggests they land.

Permalink

"Yes, good idea."

Permalink

And they do so. There is in fact a small puddle nearby, but it seems rather unmoving.

"I hope Thario's okay."

Permalink

"He had his magic book."

Elleira takes a look around their landing spot. Anything to be seen?

Permalink

There are a couple of rocks, lots of grass, approximately no large animals in the immediate environs (though she can detect a few slightly farther afield), the aforementioned puddle, and also some trees and bushes with small quantities of apparently-ripe fruit. Overall, it seems like the place has decided to go back to its previous setting of 'totally harmless'.

Maya looks at it all with faint distaste.

Permalink

"It seems safe enough."

Elleira pulls out the last chocolate-thing from her bag and starts eating.

Permalink

Maya lies down on the surprisingly dry ground and looks up.

It seems to, finally, be dawn. Or this place's equivalent of, since the sky is getting brighter.

She returns her aura to the blue it was originally and watches it.

Permalink

Isn't that nice.

Nom nom chocolate thing.

Permalink

They can stay here for a while then, quite peacefully.


Unfortunately, after a while, Maya will make a small hissing noise and bring her finger to in front of her face, notice that it has puncture marks, and lean up to look around.

There is a small rabbit, near the previously noted puddle and also quite near to where Maya was lying.

The rabbit seems to be made of water.

Permalink

That's unfortunate.

Elleira has not yet undone the modifications to her saber, she can still use it to vaporize the water creatures. She flings it through the bunny.

Permalink

The bunny is quite gone. Maya looks at it to ensure this and then turns back to her hand.

If Elleira's looking at it, she might notice that the wound really doesn't seem to be that bad – it's not even bleeding, just has small bits of water on it.

Maya does not seem very relieved.

Permalink

"How bad?" she asks.

Permalink

"Small bite. Drew blood, but only a small bit."

Permalink

"That is good. I recommend not lying near the puddle, going forward."

Permalink

"Yeah," she says, seeming slightly distracted.

Her hand seems to be going slightly paler.

Permalink

"Your hand does not look right."

Permalink

"I– agree," she says, and then her aura– flickers. She looks at her shoulder, her aura continues to be blue for a short while, and then it flickers again. "And apparently I can't flare white."

Her hand continues to get paler and slightly translucent. On noticing this, her face goes paler too.

Permalink

"I would offer to cut it off to try to halt the spread, but in its current state my saber would likely set your arm on fire. By the time I undo the modifications it may be too late."

Permalink

"I think it might already be so." She bites her lip a bit, noticing that it's spreading up her shoulder too. "I guess– I hope you find a way out of here, someday."
