journey to the land of barriers

[rebells]

Who: Participants in BARRIER QUEST 2.0
Where: The outskirts of Aimintas, and the island above it
When: Day 50
Open/Closed: Semi-closed! Signups went here. Feel free to mingle in the first subheader, however!



[There's a small crowd gathering at the edge of the city today. You may have been asked here by Jay or someone else, or gotten a telepathic message--or maybe you just came out to see what all the fuss was about. Either way, if you listen in it soon becomes obvious that members of the coven are heading up to the island above to check it out, and maybe do something about that pesky barrier in the way, too.

There are a couple dragons among the crowd--although you may or may not be able to see one of them--and what looks like a small submarine. Jay is wandering among these, seemingly checking that everything is in order and everyone who's supposed to be there is.]

[Riku stumbles, but manages to keep upright. He hadn't been in contact with the shield long enough for it to do any serious damage. Mostly it's what he imagines being struck by lightening would be like; painful but quick.]

I'm fine. But I don't think this is going to work. Maybe there's someone with us who has more skill with barriers, but I wasn't feeling even the slightest give.

[rebells]

Sit down if you have to.

[He frowns for a moment, considering the barrier.]

A pity; I was hopeful that might work. I don't know anyone who has an innate ability with barriers . . . perhaps one of the Eltos. Or many of the Eltos.

[He shakes his head stubbornly. The unsteadiness is already starting to ease.]

Maybe we should have tried bringing them along.

[rebells]

We did bring one. I assume they would have told us if they had a way past the barrier.

[He motions over to where the Palai trio is conferring with Mikleo.]

We could try again with more, I suppose.

[shadowsthedawn]

Maybe it would take the power of more then one. It might take all of them.

[He glances at the Palai for a moment before turning back to the barrier.]

We need to find it's weakness. If physical force isn't enough to get through this barrier, then it must have some other kind of weakness.
