I saw this in a dream once - Cybil - Feb 03 2016
After upon meeting the kind young bull elephant in the tunnel she woke, Cybil felt it would be good for her to stretch those legs and try to connect the pieces of her dreams to what was real. The places around her did seem familiar, but in her dreams nothing was in order . . and not much reason to the way she saw things. So, as she went down the tunnel and entered a new room, the maned wolf pup was a little caught off guard. This place, I've seen it too! But the trees weren't even close to being this tall, seeing it in person was far more impactful. Stepping into the room, the young one began to wander a bit, taking this whole place in; soon realizing there was more to this place then she imagined. When she slept, she only saw bits and pieces, only flickering images; never the whole thing. Cybil continued deeper, heading to the center of Cetus. Though, the deeper she went in, she less familiar it all became. The pup was in "uncharted" waters now. Who knows what she might find, but that was a part of the reason why she continued to go. This was a chance for the young female to better understand her new world, see new things and maybe even new faces. As she walked, the poor dear didn't notice that some of the puddles were deeper then she thought and with a single step, the gembound fell forward as she stepped into a water filled hole. I wounder how old these trees ar . . . AHHH! With a splash, she was on her face. Not even Cybil saw that awkward moment coming. Ouchh . . Moving to get up, her frizzy young coat all damp now from the murky water. ----- words thoughts! OOC: DISCLAIMER: Cybil dreamt of many things in her chrysalis; in which she saw the faces of gembounds and knows a few of their names. She doesn't have much power besides that unless using magic. If is up to you if you want her to know your character or at least seen them in her dreams. c: |

ooc: What an interesting little cutie, I definitely want in on this :o You can go all psychic on Fritz if you want.
Fritz didn't understand the creatures he had met so far - they all seemed focused on one terrible conflict or another. To him, it seemed rather fruitless, so did gem magic, and the idea that the cave was a living entity. The static in his mind just wouldn't allow him to comprehend such things. But he made the most of what he had learnt so far. Right now, no one would take him seriously.... surely, some day they would.
The little grey creature continued to scurry quickly across the large, foggy space, having had explored for a while and not seeming at all to falter. What was the point in stopping?... Resting was just wasting time.. The new fledgling did feel rather vunerable on the ground, though
But surely no creature would go so far as to attack him? He trusted almost everyone, even strangers.
He continued like this for a good half an hour. Overall, the youngester was pretty blissful, since overthinking was redundant. As he journied on, he admired his surroundings, despite them being very dark and rather grim, and foggy - beautiful in it's own way though. He was not at all adapted to walking, as opposed to climbing, and his tail dragged across the ground, causing it to hurt a little; a sensation which distracted him from the realisation that he couldn't see centremeters in front him, even with his almost torch-like golden eyes.
He could hear clearly though, even his slight pawsteps, and therefore the loud splash in the distance should have made him jump, by pure impulse. It didn't though - it merely made him intrigued. Consequently, he picked up his pace, heading to where he assumed the sound originated, not showing any obvious signs of fatigue from his travels.
Suddenly he felt his paws get wet. It was at that moment when he saw Cybil. Well, only the foggy outline of a creature, seemingly haunched over far in front of his view. He hopped a little further and soon realised the water got drastically deeper the further he went in. He took one paw out of the murk and attempted to direct his high-pitched voice towards the mysterious outline, tilting his head, "Why are ya' in the w-water? It seems f-fun. Can I join?"
He wondered, maybe this creature would be different from the rest.

Getting back to her feet, still deep in the murky water, Cybil began to head back to higher ground only to find a voice rung in her ear. Glancing over, she would see the small little critter that was coming closer. You wouldn't need to coerce the maned wolf to give a greeting, she would jump at the chance. As she looked at him, a smile formed. His name was lost to her, but she did recognize he was very young like herself. Oh no, it's not fun at all. I would say it's so cold for a dip. Walking over to the other, lowering herself to be at his level. I'm Cybil . . . and you . . . A little concerned now that she wasn't able to recall his name. This was a first for the pup, but maybe that was normal. The others she met didn't know her name. Strange. This was something she would need to think over later. What are you called? ----- words thoughts! OOC: |

Fritz didn't attempt to move back from his position as the sodden wolf came approached into clear view. The marmoset's golden eyes sparkled in wonder and he sat up a little on his hind legs to appear taller in order to help Cybil in her efforts. He had a cobweb strewn around his tufts from when he was rumaging around the tunnels.
"They call me Fritz. An' Cybil, you're ah lot prettier when I can properly s-see you!... "
Briskly, he glanced around at the surrounding, thickening fog, and fidgeted with his tail despite his wet paws. Not with nerves, rather with a whirring mind and jumpy disposition.
"It's weird h-how we might not know if anyone is here watchin' us, isn't it... but why are ya' here? Are ya' on a m-mission of some sort? E-everyone i've met so far seems to have somethin' really important to do. They look like they've g-got everythin' sorted out."
He didn't look her directly in the eyes after that, tending to look anywhere but in her general direction, although there wasn't much to look at that the fog didn't effectively conceal. It wasn't in intention to be rude, however.

Oh, this was a delightful little being. Put a smile on her face, giving a quick shake to try to get the water out of her fur. The room was chilly, but not cold enough to give much bother for the child. Maybe she was just to excited to meet a new face. And they were polite to boot! Oh, well thank you very much . . Fritz. It's an honor to meet you. White tipped tail wagged slowly. His claim did make her think a little, How many eyes could there be out there? Glancing around before focusing back onto him, his questioning of her reason to be here a very intuitive one. I'm just exploring, seeing where all the tunnels go. Glancing back to the direction she had come from, How about you? ----- words thoughts! OOC: |

Fritz was delighted that the maned wolf seemed to 'like' him, for he was pretty fond of pleasing others, as bad as it sounded.
"I'm out lookin' fa' answers, i've heard t-there is a badness in this place, and ah want to go f-find it and see if it's true... and maybe change it somehow. Ah mean the badness is pointless, in my opinion.", he responded briskly, not seeming to realise the fact that he was young, small and relatively useless. As he said this, he was brought back to the doubtless look of sorrow in Cayenne's eyes back at the time she had to explain some hard truths to him. He didn't fully accept them, however.
Despite the fact that he pointed out the potential of eavesdroppers to Cybil, he himself did not really feel alarmed at all at the matter, and he felt calm as ever in the murkiness of the room. This may have been shown by him relaxing on the moss that grew around the dark water, with his tail curled. Being scared felt too unpleasant. It was part of life though, wasn't it?
Cybil looked huge from where he was lying, so he felt the need to shout a little, rather tactlessly if there actually turned out to be a creature lurking about -
"It's h-hard to see anything 'round here, nevermind were all of the tunnels go... don't ya' feel afraid?"
