a night-blooming flower (for His Divine Shadow)

Fahr shook his head and smiled. "No, I wouldn't want you pushing yourself. You can visit with my clan another time." Glancing over at her, he lifted an eyebrow. "But how about I come with you? At least we'll be able to spend some more time together."

Qwynh grinned, "That would be great!" Just then, as if to destroy the moment, she yawned mightily, "O-Oh dear...Well, if we don't have to hurry, do you mind if we rest for a little bit?" Qwynh said, her ears already drooping, relaxed.

The bat tugged lightly on Fahr's sleeve, "Let's go sit in the shade and catch up with each other. I'm sure you have all kinds of stories!"

Laughing, Fahr threw an arm around her and tilted his head, touching it lightly against hers. "Sure thing, Qwynh. Sure thing."

(( and fade out to later? ))

(( yep yep ))

Qwynh stirred and awoke to find that she had fallen asleep leaning on Fahr. With a small jolt she sat up and shook herself, "I-I'm sorry, I must have been more exhausted than I thought..." she mumbled, deeply embarassed.

With a little help from a tree, the bat managed to pull herself onto her feet. She looked at the sky and found it was already past noon.

Time to get going, so she started stretching her wings.

Fahr had been so comfortable that he'd started to nod off a little, too -- the result of staying up just a bit too late the previous night. "Hrm? Oh, I guess it is," he answered her. He got up, stretched, then promptly swore under his breath. Turning, he looked off in the direction of the great elm. "I left my wings . . . ah, I'll be right back, okay?" After a few steps, he broke into a run, murmuring a chant as his ankles brushed against each other, and he rose upward at a bit of an angle, running along a current of air back to the encampment.

A few minutes later, the Wind returned wearing his flying contraption, and grinning broadly as he circled around her. "Hey, sorry I wasn't back sooner. I just had to watch grandfather take uncle Kieran down a couple pegs. He shouldn't bother you any more." He tossed a head toward the mountain. "Shall we go?"

[Toyoll]

"Well, I'm glad that's been taken care of!" Qwynh giggled as she took off, her powerful wings launching her into the sky where she shed her clumsiness and became graceful, "Right, we're looking for a Mrs. Luisa in Cordia. I have a letter for her."

The bat then tilted her dark wings and headed in the direction of the town.

((Feel free to end it here I guess, unless you have more ideas!))

(( I had wanted to play through some of the time spent with the Holtseeks, but considering how long it took us to get this far, maybe that's better done over IM or PM and then collected into an Offscreen Conversation post. We can discuss things further over PM, at any rate. ))
