Found! But in Crete?

Talia Sunsong: Rorn has a peacock feather in his mouth

Talia Sunsong: Rorn suddenly flies out of Talia's arms towards a man

Fitheach Eun: Hey, look at the tall guy out there

Talia Sunsong: "Rorn come back!"

Savage.Taurus wanders in, munching on a gyro, and stops, startled

Savage.Taurus: Rorn? Rorn!

 Rorn lands on the man's shoulder

Talia Sunsong: "It's... It's...!"

Savage.Taurus hugs his son happily

Savage is Found!

Fiesty.Lotus goggles at the strange man: "No that's just not right. He is familiar...."

Fitheach Eun smiles

Savage.Taurus: "Hello ladies. What are you doing here?"

Fitheach Eun: "Hello Savage. We might ask the same of you."

Talia Sunsong: "It's dragon daddy!"

Fiesty.Lotus: "Oh! Savage!"

Fitheach Eun: "Where is here, by the way?"

Savage.Taurus: "Well, I got transported to this island somehow, but I'm making out ok so far."

Fiesty.Lotus : "Well I never…"

Savage.Taurus: "This island is called Crete"

Talia Sunsong: looks at her bent magic wand when Savage mentions how he got here

Talia Sunsong: "Creek?"

Talia Sunsong: "Do they have a lot of streams?"

Where Have we Landed?

Fiesty.Lotus: "Oh that's right - I did not end up at the right place either."

Fitheach Eun glances significantly at Talia

Savage.Taurus: "Well, its surrounded by water, so I guess so."

Talia Sunsong looks at her bent magic wand again

Fitheach Eun: "Maybe you should put that away?"

Talia Sunsong: "Hey I did my best with my magic getting us back from the Fae lands. I'm only human...I mean Fae."

Fiesty.Lotus: "So Savage, do you know what's up here? Is the natives friendly?"

Savage.Taurus chuckles at the silly faery

Savage.Taurus: "Yes, they are quite friendly."

Fitheach Eun sighs and wonders if the wand could be straightened

Talia Sunsong: "Are they all half naked?"

Fitheach Eun: And whether that would help....

Savage.Taurus: "As far as I have noticed."

Are They all Half Naked?

Talia Sunsong: "I can get half naked too, to blend in"

Fiesty.Lotus shudders

Fitheach Eun: "Do we really need to blend in?"

Savage.Taurus: grins, "That's not a bad idea," and winks

Fiesty.Lotus shudders even more

Fitheach Eun: "Like there is any way to get half naked and hide those wings?"

Fiesty.Lotus: "Them skirts are right pretty."

Fitheach Eun: "Or these ears? Or Fiesty's feet?"

Talia Sunsong: "Hmmm I could try"

Savage.Taurus: "They are...the textile market here is thriving."

Fiesty.Lotus: "I could try on a skirt if I found one."

Talia Sunsong: "Are those bulls in the courtyard?"

Savage.Taurus: "They trade with people from all around the sea

Fitheach Eun: Interesting."

Fiesty.Lotus: "Oh good then.."

Fitheach Eun: "They are used to seeing different people then?"

Talia Sunsong: "I want to see. I want to see everything. Do they have cream?

Fiesty.Lotus sighs and follows

Fitheach Eun does, too

Savage.Taurus: "I'm sure they have cream...though its probably from an animal you haven't tried before."

Talia Sunsong: "Look they're vaulting bulls"

They are Vaulting Bulls

Fitheach Eun mutters: " Oh no..."

Talia Sunsong: "That looks like fun. Do they pay you in cream to vault bulls?"

Savage.Taurus goes to a local vender and comes back with a earthenware cup full of cream

Savage.Taurus: "This is from a local animal they call a Kri-kri"

Savage.Taurus hands it to the fae

Talia Sunsong: "What's a Kri kri? Oh I don't care as long as it's cream?"

Savage.Taurus: "It's sort of like a goat"

Talia Sunsong grabs the cup and gulps cream

Talia Sunsong: "Oooo this is going straight to my head."

Fitheach Eun looks over towards a building that looks like a temple

Savage.Taurus watches her drink the kri-kri creme

Fitheach.Eun: "Do they worship bulls here?"

Do They Worship Bulls Here?

Savage.Taurus: "Yes, they revere bulls."

Talia.Sunsong: As the cream flies to what little logical brain cells the Fae has all sense is erased

Fitheach.Eun: Interesting

Fitheach.Eun watches the giddy fae with alarm

Talia.Sunsong: stumbles towards the bull vaulters. "I can vault a bull with my hands tied behind my back."

Fitheach.Eun: Savage don't give her any more of that

[Savage.Taurus: I met a particular man-bull down in the labyrinths underneath the town

Talia.Sunsong: charges at the bull "Kowaaaa  bunnngaaa"

Fitheach.Eun: "Talia, don't mess with the bulls; they may have religious significance"

Fitheach.Eun: " A man-bull?"

Savage.Taurus: "I haven't yet learned all the local customs. Remind me to tell you about my arrival here some time."

Talia.Sunsong: "But I wannt to jump them too."

Fitheach.Eun rolls my eyes

Talia.Sunsong flutters her wings and somersaults over the bull

Hey, That's Cheating...

Savage.Taurus: Just trying to fit in as best as I can

Talia.Sunsong: "Wheeeee!"

Fitheach.Eun sighs

Savage.Taurus: Yea, he's called a minotaur. Not a bad guy, though he's only helpful when it benefits him.

Talia.Sunsong: "A mini tour?"

Savage.Taurus: watches the fae vault the bulls, "Hey, you know using your wings is cheating!!"

Talia.Sunsong: "Fae never cheat, they just act like Fae"

Savage.Taurus: mumbles, "never trust a fae"

Fiesty.Lotus smiles and shakes her head

Fitheach.Eun: "Is the bull leaping part of their religion Savage?"

Talia.Sunsong looks for more cream

Talia.Sunsong: "Who's that!"

Savage.Taurus: "Um, I think so. I havent really talked to them about that much yet."

Fitheach.Eun: "Is that your Bull man who just walked by?"

Is That the Bull Man?

Fiesty.Lotus says quietly to Druid Fit "We need to get goin here"

Talia.Sunsong shouts: "Hey Bull man do you have cream?"

Fitheach.Eun nods to Fiesty

Fitheach.Eun: Do you think he might know where the next portal is?

Savage.Taurus: "Hmmm...he might. He does know a lot of stuff about this place. Considers himself the 'big dog' around here."

Savage.Taurus: "He told me his name is ταύρος"

Fiesty.Lotus wiggles her tongue but can't catch the accent.

Talia.Sunsong: "That bull man bumped me!"

Fitheach.Eun feels the ground rumble slightly

Fitheach.Eun: "Fiesty, is the land stable here?"

Savage.Taurus: "Oh dont worry about that rumbling. There's an active volcano on the island nearby."

Fitheach.Eun: "How active?"

Talia.Sunsong: "That big smoky thing is a volcano?"

That Big Smokey Thing

Savage.Taurus: "Um, rumble rumble active?"

Fiesty.Lotus looks up, worried." I dunno, I will check.

Fiesty.Lotus pulls her staff out and digs her toes into the cracks in the tile

Fitheach.Eun calls to any sylphs or undines who might live here

Fiesty.Lotus mumbles a few words and starts breathing heavily

Savage.Taurus: wonders why she is calling to sylph's undies

Fiesty.Lotus: There be a disturbance in the earth. It be like a giant wantin out.

Talia.Sunsong: chases Rorn as he goes after another peacock

Fitheach.Eun: "That's not good."

Fitheach.Eun: "Can you stop it?"

Talia.Sunsong: "A giant in the earth wants out?"

Fiesty.Lotus: "This ain't a good place ter be right now."

Savage.Taurus: "Hmm, what kind of giant?"

Talia.Sunsong: "What will happen if we stay here?"

Fiesty.Lotus: "Like pressure, and lots of firey earth."

Fiesty.Lotus shudders

Talia.Sunsong: "Oh no that will damage my delicate fairy wings."

Fitheach.Eun: "It sounds like that volcano will erupt soon; the sylphs say the earth is restless."

Savage.Taurus: "Yeah, we should find a way out of here. Where's my spectacles?"

Talia.Sunsong: "Umm Rorn had them."

Talia.Sunsong searches in her pouch

Talia.Sunsong: "They're here, somewhere."

Savage.Taurus sighs as the nanny digs through her bag

Fitheach.Eun: "Savage, how about you tell your bullish friend we will fix his volcano if he shows us where the next portal is?"

Savage.Taurus: Hmm...that's an idea

Let's Tell the Bull Man We Can Fix His Volcano....

Fiesty.Lotus looks shocked

Savage.Taurus: "Can you do that?"

Fitheach.Eun looks at her hobbit friend: "Fiesty?"

Fiesty.Lotus: "That be a load of work sister. I dunno iffen I can do it"

Savage.Taurus: "What would you need to do a spell like that?"

Fiesty.Lotus: "I would have to get near the disturbance."

Talia.Sunsong: "You can do it! Just drink some cream to fortify you."

Fitheach.Eun: "I am thinking it would take both of us."

Talia.Sunsong: "Maybe we can go near the big smoky thing."

Fitheach.Eun: "And we won't be good for much afterwards."

Savage.Taurus: Yea, kri-kri creme has some kick to it

Talia.Sunsong: "I can help with my wand." She pulls out her bent wand.

Fiesty.Lotus: "I do agree- It be earth fire and air fer certain."

Savage.Taurus: "Oh no...bad idea...put that away"

Fiesty.Lotus: "Um."

Fitheach.Eun: "Yes and the waters to cool."

Fitheach.Eun: "We will need all 4 elements to do it."

Fitheach.Eun sighs

Fiesty.Lotus: "Yes- that too."

Talia.Sunsong: "Elements are cream, sugar, cookies and pie?"

Fitheach.Eun looks narrowly at the fae

Fiesty.Lotus begins to get a headache

Savage.Taurus: laughs heartily at the fae's elements

Talia.Sunsong: "Let's go to the big smoky thing."

Fitheach.Eun: "Let's find that Bull-man."
