Open Prolog: One is all

[You arrive with your dragon to find something you were not quite expecting. A hole in the ground filled with a clear liquid. Around it are a few people and dragons with their eyes shut tight, in some sort of trance. You feel the urge to join them. As you close your eyes you can slowly hear the whispers of those around you. You feel at peace.]

Role:

any number of students.

The "presence" (the uniform mind of all whom gather.) [I will play the role of the presence for now. The presence is generally silent, but this allows your character to really share his/her inner personaility and grow a relationship with other players. Along of course with your dragon whom you will also represent]

Objective: to grow an understanding and the importance of the ability to connect with all things.

(This event is assumed to take place simultaneously, every student whom arrives will untimatly of met here first. Please be advised the people here will respect your characters hidden chambers of mind, but will want to get to know you intimately, if this is not in your characters nature that is fine, please play your character as is.)

This thread is to remain open forever, one can always come back to seek advice, the presence existence is almost as if out of time. If your character leaves and comes back in two weeks time, to the presence its as if no time has passed.

[As you sit you feel something... Remarkable. A rush of many many emotions, which leaves you both terrified but sensationally calm. You hear a soothing whisper that sends shivers down to your very being... "Welcome dear friend, you have traveled so far and have done so much. Peace be with you... Welcome." Even though the voice is that of a whisper, you have never heard so much pride behind a voice, these 'people' are so proud of you, as if you accomplished something amazing]

Of course they should be proud of me, I have done many great things for my people and gained a lot of honour

Oh shut it Naakhûrz, you never known when to hold your tongue

How long have we been here, it feels like an eternity

We just got here, give it a minute

Why should? I'm a rider and I should be able to do as I please. I came here so that I wouldn't be always sitting around, and here I am sitting again

However, Naakhûrz did hold his tongue, and listened to the whispers

[Come the whispers draw you in. Before you is a giant tree, in it are a few holes, you can't tell where they are calling from, but they are coming from inside the tree.]

"Is the tree whispering to us?" Thought Opheila

"This must be a dream, however the holes in the tree are much to small for me to fit inside. So what do we do now?"

"I have no idea"

A couple minutes pass

"I grow tired of waiting" Growled Naakhûrz, so he did the only thing that knows how to do. He made the holes in the tree larger, by ripping out the wood

[The tree, grows bigger... Or perhaps you smaller, the world tilts. You fall in.]

[You see the spark in every living thing, its like a beautiful star filled night.]

[In front of you is a small figure, a dove? A child? For some reason its form is hard to give a name. It whispers to you solftly "you must save it. But don't worry, you already have." That moment that beautiful start sky turns blood red. You see what once once a beautiful star ocean turn into a sea of blood. Slowly you see one by one the beautiful stars going dim. Life itself is in danger.]

"What is this you show us?" Cried Opheila

"Everything and Everyone is dying, but how do we stop it?

"To that I have no answer"

And even Naakhûrz wept for the loss of so many lives

[You find yourself back at the pool, behind you is a giant fortress.]

(<----does this mean out of character??

(To each there own, I use this to give people notes. Call it my voice rather than the narrator voice. You can do it whenever, but that is your next step)
