Star Wands (Friedgood)

[Soon after delivering all those letters to heartbroken young children, it was straight to the mines for Rory. He could use the time away from the city and it was a rare opportunity to mine for materials, which he held some interest in. After arming himself with the basics, knowledge included, he had all that he needed. It had been going along nicely for a while.

Then he heard something kick up the rocks, and bleat threateningly.]

Shit fucker!

[Rory barely had enough time to cast a shield. The goldhorn goat bashed at it. For a quick shield, it held up surprisingly well, but it would not last forever.]

Start moving!

Fighting Evil by Moonlight (Cochrane | Dog Special)

[It was dangerous to travel late at night. Still, there were jobs to finish and honest workers made the journey to return home after a long day at work. Exhaustion and fatigue wore away at their minds and bodies, making them vulnerable to dishonest deeds.

Among the louses was something entirely inhuman. This large beast stalked after a particularly exhausted worker. It existed in shadows and moved with the wind, making it difficult to detect. Yet, however, small, there were signs; the glint of its red eyes, or the flash of its teeth as it licked its maw.

The Gammonian citizen continued, alone and unaware of the dangers that lurked in the dark.]

Helianthus (Caissa, Hall of Glory Courtyard)

[Rory cussed under his breath as he dug his gloved hands into the soft soil. Despite the heavy suspicions he had about the potted sunflower, he could not bring himself to kill it. Instead, he brought it to the courtyard to replant it. Here it remained out of his room and had a fertile place to grow.

He covered its roots in soil and compost and gently pressed it around the stalk. There, it should grow nicely now. Yet, he touched its leaves and frowned. Something about it felt stubborn, as if it needed more than a home to bloom.

He leaned in closer, gently pressing the curve of his upper lip to the bud. Usually, he could just simply breathe his energy onto the plants, but this place worked differently. It demanded physical contact, and so he gave it a small kiss.]
