Shards of Hope

[Ainz Ooal Gown]

"To WildClan camp," Lilacflame mewed, opening the gate.
(My deepest apologies)

"Wind? Clan?" He asked. "Where is that?"

[Wildy~ =3]

(My deepest apologies)

"Wind? Clan?" He asked. "Where is that?"
"The Clan is in the forest past Dripstone, which is the name of this place. And it's called WildClan, not WindClan," Lilacflame mewed, as she started walking along a path through a maze of stalagmites. She seemed to know every crack and hole in this place.

[Ainz Ooal Gown]

(Thought it said wind.... Welp. No more posting the second i wake up)

Magma followed her closely. Taking in everything around him. Curiousity was getting the better of him and he was to just go off and explore what this place was, but he forced himself to stay in line and follow her.

"I'm glad you're being careful," Lilacflame meowed as she walked. "This maze can be dangerous sometimes."

[Ainz Ooal Gown]

"I'm glad you're being careful," Lilacflame meowed as she walked. "This maze can be dangerous sometimes."
He nodded in response, continuously looking around. This place was so big.

[Wildy~ =3]

He nodded in response, continuously looking around. This place was so big.
Eventually the path straightened, with an opening at the end. "Now we're at the final room until we're out of Dripstone," she meowed as the two entered a room with sharp stalagmites covering most of the floor. They were standing on one of the only flat spaces. "There is a safe path through here. From your point of view, where do you think it is?"

"There is a safe path through here. From your point of view, where do you think it is?"
He had followed her, sitting next to her as she spoke. The safest path he was looking for. "Um," he started looking around. "That way?" He said pointing to where he thought the safest path was.

[Wildy~ =3]

He had followed her, sitting next to her as she spoke. The safest path he was looking for. "Um," he started looking around. "That way?" He said pointing to where he thought the safest path was.
Lilacflame smiled. "That isn't the best route," she replied, holding out a forepaw. A small blue fireball appeared, resting there before flashing. Suddenly, a path of the spikes glowed blue and vanished.

[Ainz Ooal Gown]

Lilacflame smiled. "That isn't the best route," she replied, holding out a forepaw. A small blue fireball appeared, resting there before flashing. Suddenly, a path of the spikes glowed blue and vanished.

[Wildy~ =3]

He didn't need to be told that. He already started walking. Looking around
Lilacflame followed. When they reached the end, she summoned another blue fireball, summoning the spikes again. "Come," she meowed, walking through another tunnel, which was wider and taller, but only curved to the right before opening up into a forest.

Lilacflame followed. When they reached the end, she summoned another blue fireball, summoning the spikes again. "Come," she meowed, walking through another tunnel, which was wider and taller, but only curved to the right before opening up into a forest.

[Wildy~ =3]

He followed this time going through the tunnel and looking into the vast forest. "So cool!"
Lilacflame smiled. "WildClan camp is that way," she mewed, pointing through the trees. "You can go there now. If Dragonpaw asks you why you're there, tell her I sent you."

[Ainz Ooal Gown]

Lilacflame smiled. "WildClan camp is that way," she mewed, pointing through the trees. "You can go there now. If Dragonpaw asks you why you're there, tell her I sent you."

Suddenly, a hawk, which had been soaring in the sky above them, dove down for a rabbit nearby.
Lilacflame heard its approach, and crouched low, waiting. When it had caught the rabbit and started going back up, she made an enormous leap and dug her claws in.its leg.
Startled, the hawk flew higher, taking the she-cat with it.

It was already too high up.

[Ainz Ooal Gown]

Magma waited for the two at the entrance for a little while, fatigue growing more and more as he sat there. He decided to take a nap, just a quick one to renew his energy. He walked back in camp and laid next to the pile of freshkill, the smell eventually drifting him to sleep.

[Wildy~ =3]
