ExU: Divergence | Part 2
"Seven of Them"
We return to the Rifenmist Peninsula in the south of Gwessar. A continent that has not yet earned the name Taldorei. In an age long past, where a group of straggling survivors escape the ruin of the Prison of Rybad Kol. Headed north towards a whisper, or a promise, of safety.
A community known as Torm's Hill. Pockets of civilization here in the height of Calamity are few and far between. It's been less than two years since you were there. But two years is normally long enough for a group of people (trying to survive the Calamity) to be found and slaughtered. Those that you will find (or if indeed you will live long enough to find it).
After the event's mysterious, cosmic, divine in ways and yet oh so very real, that unfolded. Shattered stone. Lightning and thunder. Roots growing before your very eyes. Lights of some strange insect. So very wild and mundane and also so unworldly. Or in the locket of your sister.
Scattered from the other companions of your gang. Sent forward into the unknown, you have been travelling for days following a stretch of magically-conjured woodland hiding from the eyes of whatever this world now holds now that 'up is down' and chaos reigns.
We return to the moments after the falling of Starmy and Fiddleflask and the witnessing of a colossal figure moving across the landscape. Crocus, at your feet, made of thick leather cord and clasp, made of dragon ivory. A gift from a god whose care is as profound as it is fleeting. And glibly given.
The lightning fades and you are left in dark forest and you do the only thing that you can. Put one weary foot in front of the other.
You are three days from where you believe Torm's Hill to be. Some of you have two levels of exhaustion already. Starmion just became rid of his very last (Insta death at 6 levels), now knowing rest that you do not. You have three days left, assuming your party can move at regular speed. However, if enough of you hit that second level of exhaustion, then that three days might turn into six. So, lets see if you all die before even a single combat.
