Maeve and Tsemara

[Tsemara]

Faolan followed the humans, as they traveled through the trees. As time progressed, she became more accustomed to the strange method she had been forced to use while traveling in an arboreal style. Periodically she would take the lead. Sometimes it was because she noticed something out of the ordinary, and possibly unsafe, about their direction. Other times it was just to make tracking them more difficult. She might have been deluding herself and the others with that one, but it was worth a shot. Hopefully, it would be the thing that would save their lives.

The drake girl sprawled out on a thick branch when a halt was called. Well, it was more decided than just stated. Jumping around like an oversized squirrel was not something someone in her current shape or Master Prusars' should have been doing. But it couldn't be helped.

As she attempted to cool herself off, she tantilizing scent waifed past on the breeze. If the others felt anything close to how she did, they could use something to eat, or drink. Or both. If the smell she found was what she thought it was, they might be able to do both. It was a good time of the year for fruit bearing trees. She might need to get a bit closer to the ground than she would heve liked to get them, but it was better than passing out from hunger.

Faolan left the spellcasters in search of the prospective meal. It wasn't as good as meat, or fish, for that matter. However, magic or not, having an open flame in the trees was just asking for trouble. She traveled a bit futher than she would have liked, as she was out of earshot of the others. However, the scent trail lead to a tree laden with fruit. She was tempted to climb down to retrieve some, but decided against it. There was no way for her to carry them back up. She turned around, carefully, and returned to the others.

"Oi found some fruit you can eat," she announced, in an almost shy manner, when she was close enough not to shout. "Oi didn't get any, because Oi didn't know how to bring them back without dropping them."

(I haven't forgotten this little gem. I got all written out after my last post in the MGRP, then I was driving forever, to and from my brothers' place. Now, I'm so tired, my brain is going herp-a-derp-derp. But this will live again!!

And as for the fruit. Chose whatever one you like. Or make one up. They just need to be juicy and delicious. Mmm....P.O.G.s....)
