Re: A Journey's First Steps (Mind Flayer)
"If you fight, you'll excite her, if you show weakness, she'll dominate you. I don't envy your position rookie, but with any luck you'll evade her entirely." Idryll said finally, perhaps to ease her worries thought it likely would do no such thing.

"If it's her, we'd be wise to steer clear, though I think if we work together, and don't get caught again we can take her." Jaime said confidently. Taking off for the woods from the northern side of town meant that they missed their crew entirely, but Jaime made sure to leave word as to their exploit. Idryll had no problem with people going about their business, so long as it wasn't in the midst of an actual job, that was the one thing that would truly earn her anger.
It took them close to an hour to arrive at the edge of the woods, there was a clearly defined though not very wide trail that the girls apparently used. They saw plenty of patches of herbs, berries, mushrooms and other bits that might have fascinated someone with any sort of herbological knowledge. Perhaps Ceri or Celledin would have had a good idea what to pick. One of the most notable things as they began to entered the woods was how wonderful it smelled. The nature in the distant reaches truly was wonderful, everything just felt alive. Lena found her mood noticeably elevated just for walking through the woods. Everything seemed to flourish, growing more and more as they moved further into the woods.
Jaime wrapped her arms around Lena's left arm as they went. Her bow was strung up and around her otherside, ready to be drawn at a moments notice, but Lena had trouble imagining they'd have much cause to use it. Jaime gave her a bright smile. "You know, if you want to take a moment and pause here, I wouldn't mind," she winked mischievously.
The trail continued on ahead, but Jaime quickly pointed out there was a part that the path diverged, a few footsteps having somewhat marked the path. Thankfully Lena had sharp eyes or they might have missed it. "Look, I think they cut through here, might be nothing, but perhaps the ones missing had gone through there...? Of course my offer still stands,"
Lena felt no unusual pull in her desire, nor did it seem Jaime had either, but the woods around them seemed rather safe for the moment, a soft tumble in the grass might have been just what the doctored ordered...
The job could wait right? Surely those missing girls could hold on for...a few minutes right?
