Re: Prelude to adventure..
Location: Not too far from the Water Temple Ruins
Party: -
=========
Umi was now using the Mizubutai as a walking stick, and couldn’t believe how hilly and twisting the path to the Water Ruin was. She used the staff as a lever against the steep bare ground that had begun to lose it’s greenery the further she got from home. She decided to stop at the top of one hill to survey the scene. Even though it was just a few miles, maybe an hour’s walk, she hadn’t been allowed this far from the village in a long time, actually, due to custom, she had never been allowed. She did however reach the Water Ruin’s when she was younger with a friend.
“I remember it being different,” she said to herself aloud, “there was fresh water and more grass everywhere. Where has it all gone?”
She plodded on, ignoring the urge to have a rest already.
When she reached a clearing, she paused, holding her staff tighter in both hands; “Who… who’s there?”
She looked around nervously as she heard the rustling of the surrounding bushes.
Suddenly a horde of Ratus ran out, practically covering the entire path, all running towards her and squeaking loudly.
Umi, although a very at kin with all animals, just had this kind of small fear of thousands of Ratus’ running towards her. With a high-pitched scream she jumped over to a rock and then onto a higher one and watched them all dash by while she clutched her staff like a child would a blanket. She whined a little as some tried to climb the lower rock but they all soon vanished off into the distance.
She hopped down, shaking a little and thought to herself; ‘They came from the direction of the Ruin’s… I wonder what they were so scared about.”
