How strange that the Deathclaw could not see it before, it certainly looked like it was doing it's best to menace and treathen now.

Oh...
You see, you're assuming that Bill cares about said menacing shadow.
Which he doesn't.
Because his only friend could be in danger!
So he continues going towards the figure!

And just a little bit later, a figure surrounded by the debris should be visible to it. It is almost as if it is commanding the winds to attack the machine!

Andy should also see a peculiar phenomena, namely that a swarm of bat-like creatures have decided to attack Andy. The creatures aim for any exposed bits and pieces that could disrupt Andy's cyborg parts.
Oddly, they don't seem to actually do any damage, almost feeling like nothing more than feathers or small objects.

[Somewhere else]

The robot itseld will again have problems with the debris. He would speak up to talk to the strange figure, but sadly his speaking device was removed.


As Andy sees the bat like things coming close he is sure that can't be healthy ad devides to rise his defence. That sayed a green energy bubble forms around him leaving the bat like things outside, as long as they are physikal or energy beeings. He still tries to get closer.

"First a deathclaw and now this. Seems like either Lucy has bad luck or very strage friends."

The shadow continues growing more dense, its yellow eyes visible as sick flames as it roars.

However, something seems off, the white figure seems to shimmer and waver as if it was a mere fata morgana. But it does stand up, turning in Bill's direction before turning swiftly back and seemingly running head first into the shadow.

As Bill is now less than twenty metres from the trees, the Deathclaw should notice that the shadow appears quite angered by the white figure's action. Perhaps now is the time to strike!

The bat creatures flock in front of Andy, obscuring his vision. Almost as if deliberate.

The figure seems to shine a strange light, but continues aiming right for the robot. It will soon hit it if the robot does not evade!

Luckily, Andy's sensors should indicate that he is close by as well.

[Entrance]

Cessie is here as well, wearing her belly hiding dress once again. She could hardly go outside the house without it these days. She just felt so heavy.

"She didn't say a specific cabin as far as I can remember." The mage replies. "Let's just have a look around shall we?"

[Gulaghar]

[Entrance]

Cessie and that silly dress. Sakura has no idea why she uses it! Of course, Cessie has twins and doesn't have a magically strengthened back.

"Sounds good. Hopefully she'll be around." Sakura turns the stroller toward the cabins and starts moving that way.

[Shadowcaller]

[Entrance]

"I'm sure someone would be so kind to point the way otherwise. There are plenty of people here we could speak to after all." Cessie replies as she look around.

[happyturtle]

Entrance

The party from Watchtower might see some delivery trolls carrying a baby crib past them and towards Sapling Cabin. A clue!

[Gulaghar]

[Entrance => Sapling Cabin]

"Hey look at that." Sakura points out the delivery trolls, and more importantly, the crib. "Let's go see. Maybe they're bringing that to Julie."

[Shadowcaller]

[Entrance => Sapling Cabin]

Cessie smiles as she look at the delivery trolls, how cute.

"Alright, let's just be careful so we don't interrupt their daily nap now." She warns before following the crib to the Sapling Cabin.

[happyturtle]

Sapling Cabin

Trolls are cute?

They'll see the trolls carrying the crib inside a cabin, and a halfling woman signing for it. Cessie may recognize her from the slave caravan rescue. "Hi, Welcome to GLoG... Oh! Mrs Mithar! It's so good to see you again!"

As long as Tobias doesn't join and play accordion or banjos.

[Shadowcaller]

Sapling Cabin

Trolls carrying baby cribs are cute!

"Hello there, I remember you." She says with a smile. "I can't recall your name though I'm sad to say but it's great to see that you are well."

[happyturtle]

Sapling Cabin

"Pansy Applehill, ma'am. I hope you are doing well. What brings you to GLoG?" Pansy asks.

[Morty]

[Edge of Camp]

Brinika plays a short beat on the drums.
Maybe we could get Tito and Lily! This way she won't be the only tiny person on the band.

[Earl of Purple]

Edge of Camp

"Or maybe both. Or Abigail." Or somebody they haven't met yet.

Deep Forest

"Bears, wolves, some of the larger cats and badgers for the most part." Pathfinder tells her. "As well as things that used to be those creatures, but those are rare and stay far away from here."

Lily stops at once as soon as Flamecrest whimpers. "Did I hurt her?"

Infirmary

Waterstrider shakes his head. "No, she's just worn out from being born and probably hungry." He reassures Lily with a gentle smile before reaching out to stroke his daughter's fur lovingly.

[Gulaghar]

[Sapling Cabin]

"We're here to see Julie, and her kids." Sakura says with a smile. "I'm Sakura Frescot, by the way. It's nice to meet you."

[Infirmary]

"Don't worry, Lily. You're doing just fine." Renetta considers what Waterstrider said. Flamecrest probably does need to eat, but she's not going to start breastfeeding with the kids here. She can probably give them a bit more time though. *nodnod*

[Forest Edge]

Look at that, it's someone we haven't seen for a while. The little dryad girl, Salix! The girl in question appears to be seven. Her skin is a greyish brown and her bright eyes are hazel. Her hair consists of trailing weeping willow branches and leaves that extend past her knees. Thankfully she was taught to wear clothes a while back, and she's wearing a blue tunic sized for an adult man, but on her it's pretty much a dress. It's rather worse for wear, though. It's tattered and rather dirty.

Notably, in her arms she's holding a brown cottontail rabbit. The dryad walks into the camp with a bounce in her step. Thankfully there's a suspiciously bear shaped whole in the cactus fence for her to go through. Anyway, the girl proceeds into the camp and looks around for interesting people.

Jamie claps her hands together, grinning happily.
"Ooooh, that would be awesome. Who would we play for, though?"

If you say so. Vidalia looks toward the door, where she hears Magtok make his entrance. And there's Marty, looking upset.

He sees Magtok and has no idea who he is. Probably best he doesn't too. He sees Vidalia. He walks to her direction slowly. He sighs. Well...I'm h-here...B-beginning to w-wonder why I even agreed t-to this. He's in a bad mood.

Vidalia shrugs sadly. I figured it was because you wanted to make me happy. But more importantly, because you want to be better. She reaches out to touch his chest. You can't begin to heal what's inside, if you remain damaged outside.

Caroline nods. Let's go to the island. Maybe we'll find an old man there.

Marty sighs. He looks up at Vidalia. He's...very nervous about what's going to happen. He's also rather tired...never got much sleep. Vidalia will notice that the wounds on his wrists...they seem fresh. Marty keeps shis sleeves down to cover it though. She'll still notice however seeing as Marty forgot his gloves at his cabin. You're r-right...sorry...Well...I'm ready...As r-ready as I'll ever b-be...Where d-do I go now?

[Reinholdt]

[Lake]

"Ooooh. That's a good idea. We'll need to ste-borrow a boat for a paddling mini-game though." Vincent says as he heads towards the boathouse. Which is way more fun than asking psychos for advice.

[Shadowcaller]

[Sapling Cabin]

"Nice to meet you miss Applehill, and as my friend here said, we are here to see Julie and her family." Cessie replies.

[happyturtle]

Sapling Cabin >> Julie's Cabin

"Oooh, what a beautiful baby! I can show you the way to Julie's cabin," Pansy says. "If you all need the babies looked after, that's what the nursery is being set up for. We have a little baby boom going on here. We have three babies just born, and another deadtimed in the birth canal on the way."

((sleeptime for me. Pansy will lead them to Julie's place, and can be godmodded for babysitting if wanted.))

Vidalia reaches for Marty's hands, looking him in the face and smiling. Don't worry. I'll be right by your side, just like I said I would. She looks around. We have to wait for Quinn, or maybe Jamie can tell us which room is yours.

Caroline beams. Of course it was a good idea.

She follows Vincent to the boat house to borrow a boat. It's a lake. They can't steal the boat, unless they remove it from GLoG completely.

[The Mad Hatter]

Outside Infirmary

Now she'll definitely see the fresh cuts. Marty nods. Alright...I'll wait f-for Quinn...or J-Jamie...How are y-you today?

[Gulaghar]

[Sapling Cabin => Julie's Cabin]

Sakura beams at Pansy. Laela is indeed a beautiful baby. =3

"Oh wow, that's a lot of babies." That just means even more potential playmates for Laela as she grows up. Sakura glances at Cessie. "I guess we're nowhere near the only moms around."

"Thanks, Pansy. We'll have to check it out later." No dropping off Laela yet. She wants her to meet Julie's kids. *nodnod* Speaking of Laela, Sakura pulls her out of the strollers as she waits for Cessie to knock. Look at that, her hair isn't just greenery anymore. Instead, her head is covered in numerous dark pink buds. It's only a matter of time before she's sporting a full head of flowers.

I'm fine. Vidalia lies. Just been wandering about, checking on my veggie garden.

[The Mad Hatter]

Infirmary

Marty had been lied to before...a lot actually. He can kinda tell if somethings bothering someone. He gets a feeling that somethings wrong. Vidalia certainly must do something other than check on veggies in her free time! Maybe it's Marty's paranoia that makes him ask, ..Are y-you sure V-Vidalia?

[OrchestraHc]

Above the Lake and Closing

A single cloud lazily drifts above the lake at the Good League of Good. It floats, unassumingly, as electricity begins to crackle off of it. At exceptional speed, an orange blur plummets from the cloud into the lake with a massive splash. A Dragonite, heavily damaged from a battle with a greater foe, sinks into the lake. Soothed by waters like those it once called home, drifts to sleep.

Hours later, if undisturbed, it will eventually drift ashore, terribly injured, but generally stable.

Watch as they get to the island go through the events there and then mysteriously end back up on the main land after a fade screen with no boat!

But in the meantime, they just borrow one.
"Alright. Alternating button pushes. Ready?" Vincent asks as he takes up an oar.
