We Need More Crystals and Back to Momma

Everyone Gathered Around the Cage

Saphira Mistwalker drops into the library, to find the others gathered around a cage.

Fiesty Lotus: Well, that Savage ain't much fer this trip

Fitheach Eun raises an eyebrow at Savage: "If you are going to take that attitude, we will return him by ourselves

Fitheach Eun puts the book on top of the dino's cage

Talia Sunsong: Sigh we don't get to sell Savage or the Dino to the circus?

Savage Taurus: "I got my crystals and them ladies ain't willen.

Saphira Mistwalker: Are we taking this little guy home then?

Fitheach Eun: ‘Ok everyone, gather round and touch the book.’

Fitheach Eun: Yeah Saph, we feel he belongs with his mother

Fitheach Eun: And he eats too much.

Saphira Mistwalker: Heh, a growing child.

Rorn sits proudly on the cage

Rorn: greets Saphira

Saphira Mistwalker: Greetings Rorn.

Saphira Mistwalker: Greetings Savage.

Talia Sunsong: "Savage you sure you don't want to go to the circus?"

Fitheach Eun: "Everyone touch the book, please"

Everyone Touch the Book

Fiesty Lotus touches the book

Saphira Mistwalker sighs and reaches for the book.

Talia Sunsong: steps forward and touches the book

Rorn: puts on paw on the book

Fiesty Lotus: Come on Savage Naga

Savage Taurus: is reluctant to touch a book, thinking it might harm him in some way

Talia Sunsong: "Look Saph, I helped turn Savage into a Naga"

Fitheach Eun rolls her eyes

Fitheach Eun: "Helped, yeah"

Talia Sunsong: "I didn't read the ingredients on the potion bottle closely"

Saphira Mistwalker hesitates in touching the book and rolls her eyes as well. "I see that. Some improvement, I guess."

Talia Sunsong: "People make substitutions in recipes, right?"

Saphira Mistwalker: Hmm, I'm not sure potions are quite the same thing.

Saphira Mistwalker takes a deep breath and touches the book as well.

Savage Taurus: doesn’t want to be the only one left so he touches the book with one small finger

Talia Sunsong: "I thought potions and recipes were the same."

Fitheach Eun traces the symbols in the book slowly

Fitheach Eun: The book begins to glow brighter

Fitheach Eun: On the third repetition, everything starts to swirl and goes black

Saphira Mistwalker looks around and hisses gently at all the huge reptiles.

Fitheach Eun blinks in the brighter light

Saphira Mistwalker looks up at the new arrival and gulps. "Even in my full dragon form, I'm not that big. Shadow dragons are small."

Fitheach Eun hears rumbling coming closer

Fiesty Lotus: "Uh, oh, I think we need ter let the critter out."

Talia Sunsong: "Sigh, we are letting go of many shinies we could get selling him to the circus."

Fitheach Eun gulps and backs away; “Yes, Fiesty I believe you are correct.”

Back to Mama

Fiesty Lotus hurries to open the cage door.

Saphira Mistwalker notices she is between the mother and baby, and backs out of the way

Fiesty Lotus: The T-Rex scurries toward his mother

Fitheach Eun watches the mother and the other reptiles closely

Rorn: "Bigggg dwagon!"

Fiesty Lotus: Yes Rorn, that be a big one.

Savage Taurus: yea, lower creatures like that need to be kept in cages...reptiles, and faeries, and hobbits, and elves, and....

Saphira Mistwalker: You know, my clan had stories about these big reptiles, from ages past. I didn't know there were still any in existence.

Fiesty Lotus: And Nagas...

Talia Sunsong: "I'll use my bent magic wand to save us!"

Fitheach Eun: Really Saphira? How old are those legends?

Savage Taurus: No, I said 'lower' creatures

Talia Sunsong: "Do wingless dwagons eat Fae?"

Fiesty Lotus: I be taller than you now Savage

Savage Taurus: Probably

Fitheach Eun ignores Savage, again

Saphira Mistwalker: Hmm, really old. Almost from the dawn of our clan, so thousands of millennia.

Fitheach Eun: Interesting

Fiesty Lotus watches Savage

Talia Sunsong: "This dino is 1000s of years old? She looks good for her age."

Saphira Mistwalker: I don't think she is. I just say we thought they were all gone a long time ago.

Savage Taurus: Saphira, these creatures to us are like what monkeys are to the hominids.

She Musta Just Ate

Fiesty Lotus: The Mother doesn't seem interested in us-- she musta just ate

Talia Sunsong: Mother T-rex looks at group and roars

Savage Taurus: spies some shiny things on the ground and sneakily starts to gather them in what he thinks is a clandestine way

Fitheach Eun notices Savage and says, please share those this time, Savage"

Rorn: yips and moves away from giant T-rex

Fitheach Eun retreats further and collects some crystals as well

Fiesty Lotus notices Savage and looks around for other crystals

Savage Taurus quickly hides them behind his back, "What? What are you talking about? You'd better watch that mama dino. She might mistake you for a snack."

Saphira Mistwalker watches the two gathering crystals. "What are the crystals for?"

Fitheach Eun: " We need crystals for some experiments. we learned they can power things up."

Rorn: flies around head of T-rex chick one last time and follows others

Saphira Mistwalker nods.

Talia Sunsong: "Shinies? You have shinies?" eagerly goes to pick up crystals.

Savage Taurus: sighs as he realizes the rest of the group has noticed them too

Rorn: lands near piles of crystals. He grabs one for his little hoard.

Fiesty Lotus picks up more crystals- trying for the more glowy ones

Talia Sunsong: "I'm going to put this crystal on a crown for me, or maybe a magic wand!"

Saphira Mistwalker waves to the two huge reptiles

Saphira Mistwalker narrows her eyes at Talia and sighs. 'I'm not sure a new wand is a great idea."

Talia Sunsong: sees Saph waving and waves too. "Bye bye big scary lizard."

Fiesty Lotus gathers up all she has picked and puts them in her pouch

A Smaller Reptile Dashes by

Fitheach Eun jumps as a smaller reptile dashes by

Rorn: waves his little hand "bye" to dino chick

Fitheach Eun: "Perhaps we should leave while we can?"

Saphira Mistwalker: Perhaps it is time to leave we seem to be attracting a lot of attention.

Fitheach Eun holds out the book

Savage Taurus: kicks some crystals behind the tents and plans to come back to retrieve them later

Fiesty Lotus: Yes- those reptiles are very active and I think the T-Rex is looking at us.

Fitheach Eun nods; touch the book please

Fiesty Lotus touches the book

Talia Sunsong: "But I want my shinies!"

Saphira Mistwalker tries to hide a smirk as Savage is almost hauled away

Saphira Mistwalker: Ok, these reptiles are getting too friendly.

Saphira Mistwalker: Time to go.

Fitheach Eun: nods

Fiesty Lotus nods

Savage Taurus: touches the book before the raptors decide to abduct them

Saphira Mistwalker reaches out and touches the book.

Fitheach Eun traces the symbols in reverse

Talia Sunsong: sighs and touches the book

Fitheach Eun: the book begins to glow brightly

Fitheach Eun: suddenly the world spins and goes black
