Ghost Town? Check|Satich, Reave

Acqua looks slightly amused at that. "Yeah," she replies. "I'm a ghost. Don't look so nervous. We don't bite and if we did it wouldn't hurt." To prove Acqua's point, Thom touchs his storm sign and sends a bolt of lightning at the tree. Both spirits watch as it passes harmlessly through it. "See?" Acqua asks.

"I think what I find the most odd is the fact you have no scent," Malcamon noted. "You smelled of water before. Now I can't smell a thing." He did not say it offensively, simply matter-of-factly.

[Northen Light36]

"I did?" Acqua asks, interrested.

"Why are you in Satich anyway?" Thom asks. "The living rarely spend as much time looking around here as you have done. They normally just pay tribute, sleep and leave."

"We are on a mission to find out who exactly caused the disturbances that have been happening all over Naruta," Mal said promptly, seeing an opportunity to gain some insight. "Have you two perhaps heard any news on the other side?"

[Northen Light36]

Thom and Acqua glance at each other. "I don't know anything about that," Thom replies. "The living, with a few exceptions, haven't concerned me in nearly twenty years. Acqua, do you know anything? You've got more of a connection to the living," Acqua looks thoughtful for a minute.

"Maybe... I know something big happened in Dark Cloud awhile ago... But I don't know what," she replies slowly.

Looking thoughtful, Thom adds, "There is one thing I can tell you. Something seems... wrong... with the Forces, or at least Taed. His hold over us doesn't seem quite as strong, almost as though he's weak..."

"That's disturbing," Charanth remarked with a shiver. "Very... Dark Cloud, hm? Well, in the visions our mystic saw, there were some priests doing a dark ritual amidsts some ruins. That's why we're here. Last time I'd heard, Dark Cloud was still thriving. Could that have changed?"

[Northen Light36]

Acqua shrugs. "I don't know," she replies. "It could have, but I haven't been there in a long time."

"You could try asking Maelstorm's lord," Thom suggests.

[Kender Bard]

Charanth shifted uneasily and looked to Mal. "You're a Storm, you know more about Maelstrom than I do. Should we head there?"

"There's a very old saying that states, 'If the dead offer advice, listen to them'," Malcamon quoted. "If Maelstrom's lord might know anything, we should ask. Yes, I believe we should go."

[Kender Bard]

"Tomorrow then," Charanth decides, trying not to feel too uncomfortable about the notion. He has never been much of a friend to Maelstrom since the incident with Darkstorm. Looking at the two spirits he stammars, "Ah, er, will you.. Uhh be staying?"

[Northen Light36]

Acqua shrugs lightly. "We'll be around. It's just a matter of if you see us or not," she replies lightly, grabbing hold of the tree branch and pulling herself back up onto it. Thom chuckles.

"We won't bother you if that's what you're worried about," he tells Charanth. Then he looks thoughtful. "Would you do me a favour? If you do find out something happened to Dark Cloud, will you come back and tell me? It was my home in life and I have to admit, I'm curious."

"We'll do what we can," Mal promised with a little bow.
