The moment they land, Pravuil lifts his face, sniffing deeply at the air. Cantor asks him, "What do you think?" "It reeks of death, but that's only to be expected," the Reeve sourly replies. His orange eyes fasten on the monastery. "But if it is [i]her[/i]...and honestly, it's too early to tell yet...I rather doubt she'll be in there." "That doesn't mean there mightn't be clues," Cantor says with a snort. His own gaze, however, is roving over the graveyard. "Well, while we're out here, we might as well get started." And now he addresses the clergydrakes directly: "Brother Rowan, we'd like to [b]investigate the graveyard and surrounding grounds[/b] with you, please."

It was creepy, yes, but she had also traversed the depths of the Tangled Wood and that felt different from this place. She landed with the rest of the group, sharp and trained eyes surveying the surroundings for any threats. She knew the graveyard had creatures in them; she'd seen them while flying over, a small motion she captured but couldn't identify. Hearing two other dragons speak up about intending to investigate the graveyard, she walked up to Sister Inghinn, "I'd like to [b]investigate the monastery with you, Sister[/b]." Who knew what dangers lurked within those walls? Ciarre was well-versed in close quarters combat; she could keep the party safe when needed. ----- [center] [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=69885996][img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/coliseum/portraits/698860/69885996.png[/img][/url] [b]M I N G H U I[/b][/center] The atmosphere of Ravenswood was making Minghui's hair stand on end. He's been to cemeteries and graveyards aplenty, but this one... It felt like it had a strange energy to it, one that he could not identify. He kept a lookout for any wandering spirits, but saw none; only dark figures that seemed to vanish when he looked in that direction. Listening as the other dragons took their pick, Minghui decided to [b]investigate the graveyard and surrounding grounds with Brother Rowan[/b]. As of now, there were more dragons choosing that option, and he felt safer with a larger group, considering his utter lack of physical defense skills. Furthermore, the graveyard felt like the better choice for a dragon who could talk to the spirits.

Conway had been staring out in the graveyard rather intently. Surely he sees something. Gunnar had many books with him, ready to write down anything needed. To Conway, the graveyard is very open. Spirits to talk to and once you've visited one, it's like you visited them all and yet...this was different. It's like an eerie quiet that brings shivers down the spine. Gunnar had started his note taking, the decisions they are making as well as any symbols that could possibly help them. Mimir was worried since this is Gunnar's first intense research outside of the clan in a long time. Despite the severity of the situation, both Conway and Gunnar are very excited to work with other dragons who answered the call. It's always refreshing to see new faces and while Father Mimir seems to have a stony exterior Conway can tell that he's glad to see so many other signing up for the cause. [rule] [center] So a decision was to be made - which way to go? [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/4187760][img]https://www1.flightrising.com/rendern/coliseum/portraits/41878/4187760.png[/img][/url][url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/60906734][img]https://www1.flightrising.com/rendern/coliseum/portraits/609068/60906734.png[/img][/url] Mimir and Conway went up to Brother Rowan and said that they'll help [b]Investigate the graveyard and surrounding grounds[/b]. Conway has a feeling that the spirits may assist them.

While he was a tad disappointed to not be joining the most powerful and respected in his clan; he will make Father Mimir proud and find as much as he can. As he enters the threshold, he starts to write notes and sketch any symbols that is of interest to him - keeping in mind to leave space for anything that Father Mimir and Brother Conway may relay to him later.

Sorry for the short response, but I’m currently busy and on mobile and can’t spend too much time on this

Anyways, both Xeylth and Amoranwen decide to explore the interior of the monastery

[b]Clan Name:[/b] N/A (working on it!) [b]Dragon Name:[/b] Maia (she/her) [b]Info:[/b] Seemingly an innocuous beekeeper/gardener, Maia loves nothing more than spending time outside with her animal friends, who she claims have a "special bond" with her. She's traveling the world to spread the good word of the bees- and hopefully find some new plants along the way!

[b]Dragon Name:[/b] Prion (she/it/they) [b]Info:[/b] Prion is contaminated by a disease known as the Blacklight Virus, allowing her to communicate with fellow infected. She was infected with this disease as a last-minute attempt to purge another, far more fatal disease from her body; it succeeded, but took the majority of her character with it. Now, she has only one goal: infect.

One claw lightly tapped the ground in thought; if the ashes were scattered, that would make their retrieval rather difficult. But perhaps the members of this cloister had some way of detecting them. He went on to stand by the those [b]ready to follow Brother Rowan into the graveyard[/b], thinking he'd be of more use there. "How will we know that we've found the ashes?" the gaoler asked. ------- [center][img]https://www1.flightrising.com/rendern/coliseum/portraits/870309/87030824.png[/img][/center] Rogue initially had other business at the port, but he couldn't help but be drawn to Brother Herald's dilemma. Ravenswood was definitely a bit further out from his usual stomping grounds, but he didn't think too much of it. Things had been a little slow back at home, and there was just... something that nagged at the back of his mind. He should help. To add to it all, there was another imperial here that looked oddly familiar. Yet, he was certain he had never actually seen him before. Maybe he was a relative of sorts. Incidentally, he was also going to [b]head into the monastery with Sister Inghinn.[/b] He felt his abilities would be of better use there. -------- [center][img]https://www1.flightrising.com/rendern/coliseum/portraits/4870/486972.png[/img][/center] Similarly to Rogue, Shun had been finishing up other business with this whole matter caught his attention. It was a peculiar problem to say in the least. After signing up, he hung back to listen, taking stock of all who were present. Quite a few dragons had shown up. For now, he mostly kept to himself, before joining the [b]group heading into the graveyard[/b].

[center][b][url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/qnc/3286766/3#post_55813249]D A Y | O N E [/url][/b][/center] [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/84273398][img]https://www1.flightrising.com/rendern/portraits/842734/84273398p.png[/img][/url] [b][color=#702525]K A L I[/b] The beast hunter had spoken little to nothing as she made her way among the old remains of the rotting monastery, graven with the scent of death and smoke, all leaving a bitter taste in her mouth. She would grit her shape teeth, try to keep her mask of indifference held steady as she overlooked the entire place with a look of disdain for a place she had never even once visited. Yet it was not hard to tell, something unholy, something sinister had once laid here, if was a simple question in her mind if it merely haunted the place anymore. She would take in the words of what she can had been told before, she knew what was to be found, but was the next course of action was merely a simple choice; the graveyard or of the monastery? She was frown, but her features would eventually linger on that of the Skydancer, and she would move. [b][i]She would choose to investigate the graveyard and surrounding grounds.[/i][/b] [color=#702525][b]"You have my blade, and my eyes, Brother Rowan."[/b][/color] Is all she gives them, the sound of rusted chains and plated metal moving with the imperial as she made her way over to the others. She'd merely peer at the groups now forming, eyeing off her new teammates. [color=#702525]"[b]I suggest, we all keep our guard up, and our claws ready."[/color] She would say. [color=#702525][b]"Whatever could linger in a place like this, will not be friendly, nor, would it appreciate trespassers on it's territory."[/b][/color] [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/82620458][img]https://www1.flightrising.com/rendern/portraits/826205/82620458p.png[/img][/url] [b][color=#41573e]C A L A D O R N [/b] The shambling mount of old rags and tattered fabrics that was Caladorn would eventually make his way along with everyone else, perhaps only a bit embarrassed by his own slowness. He was a man of many things, but in the end, he was also a man who lived many, many years. He'd trot his way over to the groups, tilting at Ravenwood with an almost, sad wistful expression. [color=#41573e][b]"This place ... ... It must of have been holy at some point,"[/b][/color] He'd say, almost in a whisper. [color=#41573e][b]"I bet it must has been beautiful when it was still whole."[/b][/color] He pondered, before he'd turn to the white pearlcatcher with his full attention. [b]He would choose to investigate the monastery if he could.[/b] [color=#41573e][b]"Sister Inghinn, if you would let me, I would like to give my aid where I can,"[/b][/color] He'd offer in his usually gentle tone. [color=#41573e][b]"I am not a man familiar with that of a weapon, but, if anyone needs healing, I will freely help where I can."[/b][/color] He'd say with the nod of his head.

DAY ONE [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/83547669][img]https://www1.flightrising.com/rendern/coliseum/portraits/835477/83547669.png[/img][/url] Mameluke slips into the crowd gathered around Brother Rowan, choosing to [b]explore the graveyard and surrounding grounds[/b]. There are plenty of dragons in this half of the party, but something about the shifting shadows and general atmosphere puts him on edge, and he'd rather be out here facing it than trapped inside with his back to it if something does happen. [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/87557716][img]https://www1.flightrising.com/rendern/coliseum/portraits/875578/87557716.png[/img][/url] Arrow steps up next to Sister Inghinn to [b]explore the monastery[/b], tipping her head to one side to give the ruined building a once-over. She's better at tight corners than most dragons her size, and all those shadowy crevices look much more exciting than some crumbly gravestones. She watches the others in her party, too, keeping quiet for the moment but ready to join a conversation if one starts up. [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/86689331][img]https://www1.flightrising.com/rendern/coliseum/portraits/866894/86689331.png[/img][/url] Temper is finding it hard to pick her least favourite thing about this place. She doesn't like the shifting movement she keeps catching out of the corner of her eye. She doesn't like how her tail is turning grey to match the statues when she gets distracted holding her shape. She doesn't like all these other quiet, stalking dragons. When Arrow moves to join a group, she hurries after to also [b]explore the monastery[/b], not wanting to be left behind out here with all these strangers.
