The air in the tunnels was thick with dampness as they made their way back to the Martiarch's cave. Taha, Elise, Lillie and Haldor had left the cave in a hurry, following the poor nyxthorn who had ran away once the bigger crystals started falling off the matriarch's body and made a loud sound, so they had followed them, lured them with berries, and were now making their way back.   "If only i remembered which way we went" said Lillie, who was leading the four of them ...

The four reos stood in the cavern, looking at the matriarch's body. The teams had made progress in extracting her, she was not more than one third freed of the crystals, she could lift her head and look around, even if her body was very weak still and she could not hold herself up for more than a couple minutes at the time, she was still gorgeous under the shine of the stalactite like crystals above her. Moisture had accumulated in the cavern from all the reos working tiredlessly on her, sw...

Enchased in the stone laid the Matriarch, her body a mix of crystals and blood from where they were removed. She had been laying there, whimpering, for hours. The reos with healing magic had depleted their strength, but the workload was high, so they could not stop, even if she was in pain.    As some point, while the four reos worked on cleaning crystals from the cave bed and bringing them to the designated area to be brought outside, Cailu and some other caregivers...

“There are so many people down here,” Harlowe commented in awe between bites from his lunch. “And yet as they’re distributed around the work to be done, it thinks out so quickly. Many are leaving after doing some work, some get injured or too tired…” Another bite, and the puller sighed. It wasn’t a fond sight seeing people leaving, especially when Harlowe recognized their faces from the day prior or even earlier today! Leaving off after a shift of work didn’t seem quite as inv...

Taha, Elise, Lillie and Haldor were all deep in the underground system of Vitalus, surrounded by reddish crystals as if to preannounce their entry to the Brute's clan territory.   Hours ago, they all stood together, bodies folded over a parchment paper, pen in hand, waiting for the right words to come out of their minds. Taha was hesitant to put the pen to the paper, as she was from the Brutes clan, and a poorly worded letter would surely anger Zarod, her clan leader,...

“So, you are telling me that this bull like god is the one who saved your species?” The red and teal runner tilted his head as the blue and orange haedian talked at length about Oris.   “Yup. The Matriarch called out to him in both worry and rage. Worry as we were separated from the world above ground, and anger because of the gods who did it.” Deirdre hummed as she held up one of the ornate golden statues of the god to show it off.   Wassail looked over ...

The temple of Empyria stood before them, a huge ivory stone structure with intricate designs. Many of the details were lost to time, weathered away by the weather, and yet it still stood tall, surrounded by greenery and crystals like it had been adorned by hand. But it hadn't, and they knew now, where the crystals were coming from. Long vives curled around the pillars, and yet they were still white underneath, proving that the plants were there intentionally, and that the temple was not lef...

The sound of paws hitting the rocky floor echoed through out the cavern as two bodies moved through the tunnels and back out to the surface. The scarlet and turquoise winged runner leaped over a standing rock pile as the blue and orange haedian ducked around some of the stalagmites.   “What exactly are we looking for again?” The haedian called out, squinting her eyes as they exited the cave now, her paws hitting the grass.   “Any thing that will help is fre...

The underground cavern was warmer than before, when they stepped back into it. The day before, they had been the first group to join the mission to help the Matriarch, and had been working tirelessly from morning until late in the evening, ripping crystals out until they could not close their mouth anymore.  They had been helped, then, by another vayron, one with healing magic, who had been called to stop the Matriarch's bleeding. He had cast a spell on them, and their jaw still...

The trio knew that handling sixteen little creatures was going to be a challenge, but it was going about as well as herding Igiuns. Deirdre had five little purple and yellow spined Nyxthorns on her back, Caliu had another five while Wassail had been corralling the rest since he was the smallest of the group and couldn’t carry them on his. He grunted as he offered yet another piece of food to a grouchy Nyxthorn who had been fighting them the whole way back.   “Please little ...

Their claws scraped against the rough stone under their paws as they travelled downwards, deeper under the surface of Vitalus, where sunlight had not hit for decades, where nobody but the caregivers had stepped foot in a long time. The silence was eerie, only filled with the occasional drip of water from the stalactite-like crystals hanging above their heads. One drop or two had fallen on their bodies, and Haldor had scoffed in disgust at the thought of the dirty water falling in his fa...

Wolgroth led the group back to the Matriarchs chamber, the large crowd of Order haedians moved in dead silence, the only sounds audible was the clanking of the Orders shackles and the scraping of Wolgroths claws against the stone and crystal of the cavern way. Candy Queen awkwardly shuffled forward in the middle of the crowd, not sure how her mission to track down the missing nyxthorns had gotten so exceptionally derailed but she did manage to ...

Candy Queen hesitantly followed the Order haedian deeper into the Orders territory, blood red crystals sending ominous shadows stretching and dancing across the tunnel walls as they walked. Occasionally she could hear whispers from some where in the dark as other Order haedians tagged along behind the two just out of sight. She really hated how needlessly theatrical and creepy this clan was and really wished she didn't end up visiting them agai...

With their plans set and in motion countless paws and talons worked together to excavate the matriarch. The sound of metal striking stone echoed in an unending cacophony as the sound echoed and reverberated within everyone in the massive chamber. Candy Queen stood near the matriarchs eye socket trying to help sooth the massive haedian as the massive hoard of reoseans worked together to dig out the haedians leader. The matriarch was tolerating t...

Having made her report to the Elder Candy Queen quickly rallied those at the hub and returned to the Caregrivers domain. Hundreds of reoseans poured into the underground, the previously small tunnels felt even more claustrophobic as the once nearly empty caverns suddenly found themselves practically overflowing with reoseans all moving in the same direction. As the hoard progressed deeper and deeper many curious haedians, drawn in by the noise ...

Candy Queen sprinted as fast as she could along the spiraling tunnels of the underground domain of the haedians. Her heart pounded violently in her chest as she recalled her meeting with the matriarch. Seeing the absolutely massive haedian decaying away, trapped beneath the earth was absolutely horrifying to behold and the pain in the caregivers faces as they did everything in their power to help their beloved leader was heart wrenching. Moved ...

“Here little ones… I have some yummy food for you…” The scarlet and turquoise runner pushed some of the glowing mushrooms in front of the small hole they were burrowed in to.   “Perhaps we try to lure them out in other ways?” Caliu frowned, going in to thought.   “You could try to sing and talk to em.” A more feminine voice called out from the depths of the cave.   It caused both of the reos to jump a bit, Wassail turning on his hee...

Another guttural scream ripped through the cavern, followed by a thud and cracking of stone against the floor. Panting came from all directions, but it wouldn’t last long.   “I am sorry, great Mother… I promise we will get you out of here.” An orange, green and white haedian rested a hand on to the quivering side of the ginormous being in the wall.   “She has been more amped up than last time… Have any more of her little Nyxthorn pets run away again, ...
