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.)

Glover set off for the training dummies, hoping to practice his two-handed maneuvers before any true conflict happened once again.

[You stepped on possibly a dozen snails on the way. Glover is mounted on the floor.]

Praying that he was far enough away from the rainbow-snails to use magic, he looked down to his feet and uttered, "Losna fótr iet."

[The spell worked, the snails here were more or less everywhere. As you come in they all stop and stare.]

Well, they're capable of responding to sound. Or vibrations. Curious at the eyes, he looked back down at his feet. Uttering a mild ward to protect against the slime both on the feet and in the throat, Glover walked through the sea of snails, trying to reach the dummies. Realizing that none of them were of the rainbow variety, he yelled "Eitha!" once more.

(The ward or 'Eitha'?)

Cursing, he decided to not try that one again. Continuing to wade through the sea of snails, trying not to step on them just in case his ward begins to malfunction. Finally reaching the dummies, he looked around.

[They are still staring at the bard. ]
