RE: Meetings in the Wastes [Closed] - Illira - 03-14-2015
Cypress's hands thrust outward, propelling another fireball in Thal's direction, as assumed by where he'd pushed himself off from her much larger body.

"You, go help her." Ulanan muttered to her glowing book, waving one hand behind it in a half-circle. One of the pages ripped itself apart from the others. Then another, and another. The three curved into a sphere roughly the size of the lalafell's head, and joined together in the air, gaining a yellow color. Two tiny black holes and a wide curved line formed on its surface. Soon after, its back shifted and folded, two small wings sproutng out of it. It spun once and faced Thal. It flew around him and Cypress in a circle, imitating the motion Ulanan's hand had made before. Then it threw itself against the man, hardening until it was like a soft and hollow rock. It kept the smile and the tiny eyes, though.
Meanwhile, Ulanan turned, too, to follow K'ile and the girl with slow steps.

The rock collided with Thal's back, which knocked him out of the way of the bulk of Cypress's back but also dropped him hard to the ground. The miqo'te grunted and rolled across the dirt before collecting himself to try and knock the rock away.

"This wouldn't hurt so much," K'ile lunched and took K'aijeen by one arm, pulling the screaming girl back. "If you'd just let it take the first time."
"I did! I did! Please I didn't do anything!" His hand burned her arm. She tried to keep her feet out of the vitrifying quartz, but she had to step in the quartz to struggle against it, and her legs gave out against the heat. She collapsed, her knees and legs crashing into the melting sand and burning.
K'ile glared down at her, pitiless. "And you were haunting K'piru and K'airos too, weren't you? Did you do anything to them?"
"I didn't do anything! I've never done anything!" She cast herself one way and then the other, pressing against K'ile. "It wasn't me, it wasn't!"

The fire went harmlessly over Thal's now downed form. Cypress heard scrambling, and grunting, but it seemed kind of all over the place as the miqo'te was knocked away. She knelt in the sand, head moving about for images that she couldn't see. So she sunk her hands into the desert sands, spreading heat into the sand, melting it.
RE: Meetings in the Wastes [Closed] - Ildur - 03-14-2015
"K'airos and her mother are fine. Are you taking pleasure on tormenting this girl?" Ulanan said with frown to K'ile, walking closer. Her book was open at her side, and she gracefully ignored Cypress struggle with Thal.
"Just end it already." she added.
RE: Meetings in the Wastes [Closed] - Naunet - 03-14-2015
Kicking to his feet, Thal glanced towards Cypress, noting her confusion, but then also noticed K'ile was not where he had been. Blue eyes darting around until they found the Tia, the man started and bolted forward with a shout, "HEY! Get back from her!"
RE: Meetings in the Wastes [Closed] - Illira - 03-14-2015
The sands around Thal's feet as he pushed away began to melt away into liquid glass, Cypress had stopped pouring aether into the desert, but after a point, the sands carried the heat themselves, eventually peetering out.
RE: Meetings in the Wastes [Closed] - Naunet - 03-14-2015
"Don't talk, Lalafel. It's not that fast." K'ile tightened his grip on K'aijeen and another pulse of heat radiated out from his body. K'aijeen screamed and writhed, the sand under them glistening and giving way as it melted. K'ile turned his gaze away from the Lalafel to Thal, eyes narrowing at the man. "This is the best for everyone."
Thal could feel the flesh on the bottoms of his feet peel away when the sand became suddenly superheated beneath him. It was an unpleasant sensation, though not painful, but he grimaced at it anyway as he forced himself to run ahead of the heat. "The best for you," he barked out and jumped for K'ile.
RE: Meetings in the Wastes [Closed] - Ildur - 03-14-2015
Ulanan turned, facing Thal with her book. She swiftly placed her free hand over it and, just as swiftly, snapped it in his direction. The aspectless aether contained within the pages was freed in a straight and black line, trying to hit him mid-jump.
RE: Meetings in the Wastes [Closed] - Twinflame - 03-14-2015
Before the black bolt could reach Thal, it impacted on a flash of silver that flicked through its path. The bolt burst into a dark dust and the knife it had struck spawn away into the sands, ripped free fromt he cloth that had been trailed behind it. The tapestry withdrew, arching over the dirt back behind Ulanan, where a suddenly tall and gray figure stood like a shadow cast in the air. With a knife limp in his other hand, the tapestry curling behind him, the figure looked down at Ulanan. "You wanted me here, and here I am. Aren't you glad?"
K'ile didn't notice the bolt or its deflection. Holding stubbornly onto K'aijeen with one hand, he met Thal with his other hand, blistering hot. "All you'll get over here is more of the same!"
RE: Meetings in the Wastes [Closed] - Naunet - 03-14-2015
Thal met K'ile's gesture head-on, colliding with the man with what he intended to be enough force to tear him away from D'aijeen.
RE: Meetings in the Wastes [Closed] - Illira - 03-14-2015
Cypress straightened out of her kneeling position, she stepped out onto the cooling glass. Crossing over it, her boots eventually settled into the sands as she neared the voices. Her skin looked as if it were made out of embers, set aflame to burn like a trunk of her namesake. "Why you dead cling past your time I cannot understand," she spat out to Thal in particular, "Unless maybe you are so far from voidsent after all."
RE: Meetings in the Wastes [Closed] - Ildur - 03-14-2015
Ulanan forgot everything that was going on. She turned around in a fast movement to growl angrily up at the elezen from under her white and pretty large hat.
"You! Explain yourself!" she demanded.
RE: Meetings in the Wastes [Closed] - Twinflame - 03-14-2015
The Duskwight standing over Ulanan looked down at her with an implacably plain expression. "It is sufficient explanation to say that it would be best for our relationship if you cease your attempts to eliminate D'aijeen."
Thal's impact did not break K'ile's hold on K'aijeen. K'ile was knocked off his feet, but he dragged K'aijeen with him, and they all collapsed into direct that broke and grew hot beneath them.
