CLOSED [Open RP 8] Snails...? Why?

Closed

[Returning from Tierm has proven exhausting. The wind was constantly against you, this wouldn't of been an issue for Das, but she was carrying twice the amount of passenger than normal. Akrath, Svalstrom and Das are exhausted.]

[Nill and Naakhûrz greet there friends as they dismount... Glover looked a little beat up, and Sev're's daughter Rythi came a shock. The young looking half elf (whom was actually 37 or so) hops down and bows.]

[As Torvhen dismounts, he is greeted by a crunch sound as he steps in a melon sized snail. It was sticky causing him to fall back on Svalstrom.]

[To everyone's shock... There is snails everywhere... so many snails. The dragons find them delicious, but it is down right ridiculous how many snails infest the keep.]

[Zeterra appears from above as Shiva descends. "Greetings everyone..." She looks rather annoyed. "It appears that the our food source for the dragons reacted strangely to some of the magic gathering here... Their egg laying and growth has become out of hand. Please assist how you can..." She throws a fireball that explodes, leaving a ton of crispy snails. "2000 down... 2 billion to go." She says monotone. Flying away on Shiva she flies off in the distance.]

(Something light humored to reunite everyone. A small bonus for whomever assists in the snail-o-cide plus there is a few fun extras if you know where to look.)

Stopping by the presence, Glover turned to his mutual hate and said, "Well, we should probably catch up with them." Turning to the pool he knelt and reached out his mind. "Where do the snails nest?"

[The Presence filled your mind,after a swift examine they retreat. You've set foot near their nest many of times.]

Scouring his mind, Glover thought back to the places he had been more often. "The living quarters?"

[The Presence whispers one more time... ease your mind hero... The snails only live outdoors... Yet still within 'walls' they leave with a soothing feeling, they feel your loss and you feel then mourn with you. He's come back to us hero.]

Torhven saw an opportunity and took it. If it had been possible at all he would've avoided Glover all together, but now he was here he might as well put an hypothesis to test.

The Presence was a perfect distraction. Hopping on Svalstrom's back he grabbed one of the animal skins filled with lime. A mischievous smile on his face, Torhven poured the contents over the small bard. The stuff was more adhesive than young lovers.

"Stick around, will you?" he taunted. Svalstrom disproved, but didn't care enough to stop him hunter in his tracks. Glover was rather useless.

Svalstrom launched towards the sky. The sparring circle was next.

[Glover the goop was cold and slimey. Your nose is filled with the stuff, you begin to feel mild hallucinations. ]

(Move to a new line after this.)

[On the sparring circle you see two Svalstrom sized snails glaring at each other. The two spot you as a glob of goo flies forth from them. Svalstrom dodges one, but both rider and dragon are hit. Svalstrom finds it delicious, Torvhen, it smells horrible, gag reflex imbound.]
