Aris Explores

Aris stood at the head of his ship as thick shimmering swathes of white and gray drifted by, like the busy brushstrokes of a hassled late 20th century Impressionist trying to nail out a marshland landscape before an early brunch with the Queen and the hanging soon after. He felt the coolness, the moisture, he watched the sun disappear as if brushed over by an angry Fauvist wishing that that the Queen wasn't needed for an important meeting with the knights of Thistle and could have an early brunch with him, and then maybe take in a hanging later. Now, the entirety of Murmur Valley was cast into shadow, as if a depressed Post-impressionist had just taken to his easel, and begun to scratch out one last dark and dreary setting before his hanging later that day.

It was quite hard to see.

It certainly compounded the fact that he had no idea where he was heading or how to get there. He clutched a book to his chest, and let the boat drift northeast towards the OME Headquarters--he needed a meeting with Floyd, the General, to return his book on time travel, and perhaps negotiate a few exploits.

But the path there, it was as jumbled in his head as the Abstractist's scrawling as he twiddled away the hours between breakfast and a very important brunch he would be serving to the Queen later.



I'm headed to the Sinklands, from the Unclearable Fog Marsh.

Travel is often hazardous at best, with having to worry about wild pokemon, pitfalls, and other dangers...but when someone's traveling a mile or so above the ground...somehow, most of these dangers disappear. Most birds don't like to fly in fog, either, a lot of the time...so not even those were bothering the flying ship as it drifted along.

And...so the hours passed. Slowly, uneventfully...boringly, to put it mildly. (Reached the Sinklands) Then...as the thoughts of setting up his brunch in anticipation of the Queen's imminent arrival...there was a deep rumble of thunder elsewhere in the fog. Or is it a cloud? It's really impossible to tell...but another rumble, closer this time, isn't comforting. One wouldn't want it to rain on the queen, after all.

Of course, it would be tricky to avoid the thunderstorm when it looked exactly like everything else you were flying through.

Oops. >.>

My fault, Eevee. I actually left this thread for Mav's, and I didn't mention it here. Sorry! Take .3 Genexp for your trouble anyway.

...Yeeeah. I just saw that. First time ever my looking at oldest posts first in a forum has bit my foot. *snorts* So...is that one still an HM quest or is it just a thread that needs a mod, probably a little later?

*EDIT* As a note..I'm not really all that annoyed about matters and such.

It just needs a mod, but yeah, we're probably a few posts away at this point.
