Gaia's Ice Cavern... [RP w/kasumu_sekai]

The dripping sounds and occasional gurgle of running water are more noticeable inside the Ice Cavern. A few patches of bare rock show through, but in most places the ice is still thick. The water and slush make the floor even more slippery than solidly frozen ice would be, as the Magelets soon find out. They seem to find it fun, though, not bothered at all by the cold as they look around.
Mistral looks around as well. He can see the place falling apart with the underlying magic gone, making it look changed and somewhat unfamiliar - but not as unfamiliar as it should be for someone who's never been inside it. He knows the way through, if none of the paths have been blocked by the thaw. And if they had, ice spells should let them make a way around.

The floor inside it is sandy, and they won't be able to go in more than a few steps before there's a sound of something moving under the sand. Two baby dodongos, legless things the size of dogs, unbury themselves and start to wriggle towards the 'intruders'. Mistral will just cast sleep on one, allowing the other to approach for Rydia to claim.

The Magelets, meanwhile, are 'tucking' the other, sleeping, baby dodongo in for it's nap - by covering it up with loose sand with only the head sticking out.

There's a glimmer over that way that might be ocean or a large lake. Hyrule field itself is large and green. Other than the Castle with its surrounding town and Kakariko, another structure is near the center of the field - a mostly oval structure with tall walls. The first edges of a forest can be seen in one direction, and a hint in another of the landscape drying out and possible distant desert.
Magelets are just going 'Ooooo' at this.

"I'm not sure," Mistral admits. "We didn't get to look at much of the rest of this world the last time."
A Goron near the entrance to their city watches them for a bit, but doesn't seem too alarmed. It's likely he remembers Mistral from before. It's a little hard to forget someone who asks around for what to feed their baby Dodongo.

He's heard of the Gerudo that live in the desert, and don't like anyone in their territory. The Zora live behind a waterfall at the beginning of the river, though some of them are found in Lake Hylia as well. And the forest is said to be home to fairy children that never grow up, and other things that get lost in the woods and change.

Date: 2010-01-17 07:53 am (UTC)The news sets them all chattering among themselves, with notable bits being that there is a river and a forest at home so they're more curious about places that aren't like home. Which means the strange round place in the middle of the field, the lake, or the desert. And it sounded like the Gerudo didn't like people in their desert, which left the strange place - LonLon Ranch, though they didn't know that - or Lake Hylia.
Mistral seems content enough to let the Magelets pick things for now. He's sure any choice is bound to have something interesting there. But one thing he does remember... "We won't want to be out on the field after dark. Things come out of the ground then that my bell couldn't affect."

Date: 2010-01-17 09:50 am (UTC)Mistral just chuckles and will start to head back down the mountain. "A lake does sound like it might have some interesting animals nearby. The really interesting ones usually aren't in people's houses or towns."

"Amphibious," Mistral repeats. "It means something that lives in water and can come up on land as well."
"Like toads," chirps Juro.

Once they're back on the field, the Magelets will run about on the grass a bit, happy to see grass again after all that bare rock. But they will at least head in mostly the right direction, with a bit of herding.
