I took one of the birds into my arms then I looked behind me at Isa. I sighed

"I'll continue going down" I told him and went on my way down the canyon

Decisions decisions decisions. Hmm. What the hell. I'll try the desert.

Isa blinked as he realized what exactly had been found. The poor critters, abandoned like that? It made him glance around a bit for those creepy red eyes before gently picking up the other feathered hatchling and hurrying after Innocent with a nervous "Wait for me!"

Star only looked at the faerie. She decided, she would try and reason with the smart little thing that snickered at her. "Faerie, if you are ever so thoughtful, kinder than most, I would appreciate it if you could get me out of here. I do not mind as long as I survive, and out of this mine-cave to somewhere safe." She said, not hesitating.

Ember looks around, "Okay, the lake may have monsters, but this could be a trap for me to take the safer path..." She looks around thoughtfully, and soon decides to go around the lke.

@Katherineac,

The bottom of the canyon had a river flowing through it with a stripe of shore on either side. They could go downstream with the river or upstream against it.

The faerie took her offer, dropping her in a hollow near where Ember was walking. He had changed her shape so she looked like a colorful bulbori now, which also meant she couldn't talk to tell Ember who she was. All Ember would see was a colorful Bulbori as she walked along the edge of the lake.
Starfall's new form


The desert was hot, which wasn't good with Katherine's thick fur. She could get heatstroke quite easily here. The desert just continued streching on and on with no signs of water and little signs of life during the day's heat.

Thinking to myself realizing that I'm not all that clever right now. I try to think of how I can speak to the faeries again. I know they are watching, and well, it's worth a shot. Oddly enough I seem to remember that living stones can be found in the desert. So I hope to myself that I can find some of these to use as a bargaining chip with the faeries. Surely these would come in handy and would catch the eye of the faeries.

Star looked at her new form, feelings her bulbori ears, hands and feet. She looked at her body, and figured she must have a lot of genes/mutations. She was brightly colored - not that she hated it, she loved it! The faerie must have been very kind. She was luck enough to get out of the crushed mineshaft thingy, and was safe in a small place. She made her way out the empty hollow, thinking about the faerie and the other occurrences of today.


Not too long after admiring her bulbori body which was nicely colored, she spotted someone a short distance away. It was...Ember2000! She looked at her, and began thinking (Which was rare). She waved at the girl, excited to show Ember her new form. However, a thought suddenly struck her. She didn't really mind it though - thoughts were a rare occasion for her.


"Wait a minute...I can't speak human language! Ember won't know who I am!" She said, her eyes caught in a twist of confusion and a aftermath of thinking far too long. However, to her rescue, she spotted a splotch of mud and a stick right beside her! She picked up the stick, wondering if she could use it and the mud to do something, in order for Ember to recognize her.


"AHA!" Star thought, a light bulb appearing before her small bulbori head. It flickered on and off, as if god was toying with her mind - the idea coming and going for a few minutes. Eventually, she came forth on the idea. "I'll use this stick, and then draw what happened! Ember will know it's me for sure!" And began drawing in the mud.


"But how will I show it?" Star thought, confused once again. She pondered, doodling in the mud for another light bulb to (hopefully) pop up. She must've made a miracle just then, as god flickered another light bulb on her head. She wasted no time at all, getting to work quickly. Oh, how she loved the mud! She traced the stick from here and there, and eventually came with something like this. (v Picture below v) She hoped Ember would turn hr attention to the drawing, more or less.


She looked at Ember2000 in excitement, her tail wagging back and forth just as a dog's - as if she was hoping for Ember to get the idea in a snap. She loved doodling, it was fuuuuuun! She hopped around, and eventually rapidly pointed at her drawing in the mud for Ember's attention to turn to.

@InnocentWings,
@Ember2000,
@Isa,

You three still need to post

Isa looked at the river, watching it flow. Glancing back at Innocent, he looked a bit nervous. "Well....I think I'm gonna go downstream." he said with a nervous laugh as he turned and went downstream very carefully
