The Roleplay so far

Whilst following their own separate paths in the Viridian Labyrinth, Foxstar and Lumen quickly find themselves in danger. Chased by a molten wartoad through a thunderstorm, the only way to escape was to enter the overgrown ruins of a large castle. It looks like the giant thorny vines grew right through the castle itself.

Upon entering the castle, Lumen and Foxstar encounter a guardian male, who tells them of the danger they're in. He said the best chance of them surviving was if the discovered the secret of what happened there long ago, and gave them a lamp, a necklace and a ice pick, then disappeared. Seconds after he left, a small fae by the name of Sparrow stumbled across the two pearlcatchers. After introductions, the three entered the Main Hall.

With the floor boards by the entrance rotten with holes, the three dragons flew over the breach. They found three thrones, the smallest clawed, and a painting of a group of dragons, labeled Arsar + Dyra. After a run-in with a dangerous familiar, the dragons left the Main Hall.

After heading right towards the West Wing, the dragons find themselves face to face with an apparition, which emits a chilling laugh. Spooked, the three fled into the Kitchen.

In the kitchen they found 7 skeletons, one fresher than the others. All the older ones had very deep nicks and scratches in the bone, but with the newest it was impossible to tell what killed them.

The rain pounded on my back as lightning flashed in the sky above. Luckily the ground beneath my feet wasn't too slippery, because I was running flat out. Nothing like a bit of exercise to warm you up. The thought flashed through my head as I ran for my life.

I was no match for a molten wartoad.

Unsure whether it was gaining, I headed toward what looked like a far-off break in the near-impenterable greenery.
lVuFHRe.png ZZRctbf.png
Hundreds of thick, sharp branches clawed at me from all sides. Their leaves stuck to my scales as the rain poured down, proving it almost impossible to see through the trees. A deep roar of thunder startled me and I suddenly lept forward. I have to get out of here! I thought, attempting to escape the branches that had imprisoned me.

I fought the hazy mist that impaired my vision. Squinting through the rain, I managed to make out a gap in trees. I clawed my way forward, forcing my way through the branches. I pushed towards the opening and finally managed to tumble through the bushes. I looked up to explore my surroundings when something caught my eye. I could see a tiny firey blob in the distance. The longer I looked at it, the bigger it became. Is that a dragon? I thought as it thundered towards me.

[center][img]http://www1.flightrising.com/rendern/portraits/340813/34081236p.png[/img][/center] "Woah!" I swerved and slipped a little as a dragon popped out of the bushes ahead of me. I just saw a blur of grey as I ran straight at it, what with the rain pouring down. The sound of the toad running up behind us made me frantic. "Run!"

The word ringed in my head. It screamed at my muscles to move. I quickly whipped my body around, back towards the trees. Lurching forward, I tripped over my legs, tumbling forward. My head crashed into the muddy ground, sending the world around me spinning. I looked up and even though the image was distorted and blurred, I managed to make out the firey dragon ahead. I pushed up quickly and hastily surged towards the trees. My heart thundered in my chest as I heard the angry croak of the molten wartoad directly behind me.

Looking through the rain, I could see the break in the greenery I had originally planned to head for.

I focused my eyes on the dragon ahead, forcing myself even faster. I didn't dare check how close the wartoad was, I would be no match for it.

Blinking through the rain, I eyed where the dragon was headed. She seemed to be aiming for a small gap in the greenery. Squinting my eyes, I managed to get a better look. There was something strange about the break in the trees and as the dragon sped up to it I realised it was an open gate, Leading where? I thought.

[center][img]http://www1.flightrising.com/rendern/portraits/340813/34081236p.png[/img][/center] I ran through the gate, and as the mist and the rain seemed to part in front of me, my breath caught in my throat. Regardless of the danger behind me, I skidded to a halt about twenty meters in from the gate, my legs slipping around until my body was parallel to the large wall behind me. For the mist had parted to reveal the ruins of a mighty castle. Through the fog and the rain it was hard to see the exact shape of the structure, but there was the clear shape of two towers, one at either side. Darkness gaped in the windows and the large doorway, and nothing could be seen of the inside. It looked like the roof had caved in in several different places, as well as large chunks of wall being missing, and it was clear why. Evidently the cause, and the weirdest thing about the ruins, was the large, vine-like plants spearing straight through the structure. Most were thicker around than a imperial, and looked like they had grown right up through the entire castle until they broke through the roof or walls. Even from this distance and visibility being as low as it is, I could see the massive thorns on some of the plants. A croaking roar and the sound of pounding footsteps behind me snapped me out of my reverie. I ran through the coiling grey mist, into the deep gloom of the castle entrance way.

Evidently the cause, and the weirdest thing about the ruins, was the large, vine-like plants spearing straight through the structure. Most were thicker around than a imperial, and looked like they had grown right up through the entire castle until they broke through the roof or walls. Even from this distance and visibility being as low as it is, I could see the massive thorns on some of the plants.

A croaking roar and the sound of pounding footsteps behind me snapped me out of my reverie. I ran through the coiling grey mist, into the deep gloom of the castle entrance way.
