[caprice-of-song.livejournal.com]

Who: Anise, Ion, Balir, Arche, Chester, Natalia, Guy
Where: Not far from Shurrey Hill; unnamed location (?)
When: Rem Decan 28, Gnome Day, ND 2018
Warnings: None, unless you didn't know Ion is wimpy. :'D


As far as Ion could tell, it seemed like they'd been on the move for a fairly long time. If the Oracle soldiers were still intending to come after them, they were being awfully slow about it. He was unfamiliar with the area, though, and hoped Anise had a better idea of what to do next than he did. So far, he was pleased that he wasn't in worse shape than he was, considering he'd used two Daathic artes in such a short period of time. He could feel his heart racing unnaturally, but there wasn't time to deal with it yet. They'd be much worse off if Balir caught up with them.

They continued for what felt like another ten minutes, although time was sort of distorting itself for him by this point. Where were they now, anyway? Everything seemed to be... blurring together into an awkward green smudge. Ion tried to clear his head by thinking of something else, but it didn't help. For a second, he felt like he'd been spinning for a long, long time. Oh no. It was not the time for this. They were beginning to stop; although focus was evading him by now, he was aware that Anise had probably noticed something was amiss. The stop was welcome, but a little too late.

He promptly fainted.
