Welcome to Gaia! ::

Ishara stared at him a long time, wondering if he was actually offering help or if it was some ploy to get himself healed and out of there as quickly as possible. "Fine." she abruptly said before turning and leaving the room. In a few minutes she returned along with two healers.

"This may feel a little weird." one of the healers warned as he placed his hands over Asher's chest. The other healer placed a thin blue sheet with a strange text written on it over Asher's abdomen. A pale light eminated from under the sheet as the spell that was used to keep Asher alive was finished; his flesh and bones comepletely reconstructed.

As if they had anticipated his request, a young child no more than 8 years old entered the room carrying Asher's clothing, laying it down at the end of his bed. Ishara and the healers excused themselves, giving Asher some privacy to change. His clothing had all the blood that had once covered it removed, and any rips, tears, and holes had been seamlessly repaired.




Do to the recent attack, extra sentries had been put on duty, a couple of them in the village. They weren't taking any chances with repeating the incident again.

Ishara soon appeared in the hall. Attached to her back were her bow and staff. She also wore a light-weight cloak; just enough to keep her warm when they travelled down the mountain, but not so much that it would look strange in warmer climates. On her right shoulder she carried a knapsack that held necesities. "We'll be taking the snow leopards to the village, where we'll have a faster mode of transport." she said to Asher. "How is it that you travelled here? Magic? Or were you riding an animal of some sort?"

"When inside these walls..." Ishara pointed up and down the caverns "...only designated areas allow spells for teleportation, and they only allow you to go to specific areas. That way we dont have invaders teleporting in and out of our domain." she explained. "Once beyond the primeter of the Village we'll be able to use a scroll to take us to Fadria, where I do have contacts. Getting a hold of them may prove a bit difficult as some of had to go into hiding, though." The reason she wished to use the scroll after they passed the village was, because spells can be tracked to their source, she didn't want anything to be able to be tracked to their portals.

Ishara took a deep breath and sigher-partly out of annoyance- before she walked past Asher and Seras. She led them down several halls before they came to one of the portals out of the caves. It had already been opened. Ishara stepped through the portal, which took her out into the snowy mountains. From that location, a steep path led down to a road. The two leopards stood outside the portal, waiting to be riden.

Ishara mounted her leopard and gave it a gentle pat on its shoulders letting it know she was ready. Keeping her body close to the leopard's, the creature leapt onto the path, down to the road below. In a much smoother fashion, it ran along the edge of the road, which quickly disappeared under the snow. The path the leopards took them on zigzagged through the mountains, occasionally taking them through caves or underpasses. Before they could get too cold, though, the village appeared around a bend in the pass. Within a hundred yards of the nearest building, the leopards stopped to let their riders get off.

"Do you know Fadria well?" Ishara asked Asher after she dismounted.

"So long as you have a good idea as to where things are, that's fine. Being secretive about my location when I'm searching for things has never really been my strong point." Ishara replied, heading towards the buildings.
