Subject: Ashana's Quest
*She walks in slowly and takes a look around* I'm Ashana.. *Her raven black
fur shimmers and she looks at you, her green eyes sparkling* I would like to go
on a quest.. *She lights a match and watches the flame burn with a smile. She has
always been fascinated by fire*

Asha materalises. Inlike the last time, she's clothed in her
usual sari and fully dry. "Greetings, Ashana." she says, smiling at the were. Now
why can't we all be that pretty...?"

On an island out at sea
in the halls of air and stone
where little but the oceans be
Within the temple lies the tome
The words that grant the kiss of flames
Within the temple island-wide
To call for whom the fire rains
To call from whom the angels hide
So west I bid you, good ten days
Your travels take you far from here
Across the ocean to the ways
Where fools will rush and angels fear.
Asha holds out her hand to the west. “Go that way.”
Asha
*She smiles and nods respectfully, making her way to the west. Her leather shod
feet whisper as she walks along the sandy road, and her eyes remain transfixed
upon the plain. The moon gently graces her hair with its light, and her hair
blows gently behind her as the wind caresses it softly. She continues on to search
for the element she seeks*

True to the words, the journy to the coast takes 10 days, avoiding most Human
settelments along the way. The western coast is mostly gentle beach where you
arrive, and the tide is out to the continental shelf, a fair distance from where the
beach starts. The island can be seen very feintly, too far out to swim to even at low
tide. At first glance, there is no way to reach the island.
Tuesday, 13-Feb-01 22:55:30
*She looks at the shelf and decides to get a closer look, running as fast as she can
in case the tide comes back in. She looks around slowly and waits for something
to happen once she gets there.*

In the deep water beyond the shelf, there are fish and other aquatic creatures
moving. Past you drifts a gracefull fish-like form. It raises it's head out of the water,
and speaks in a very high-pitched voice for a male. "You, what are you doing here
hey? Far from where you belong you are." The formsmiles, vaugely humanoid to
about the waist, where it terminated into a dolfin-like tail. The creature had not a
scrap of hair or scale anywhere, it's skin looking like a shark. "What you looking at?
Seen a Merman you have not then?" He says.
Thursday, 15-Feb-01 02:17:19
*She nods gently and smiles* I'm afraid I have never seen a Merman, but I am in
need of your assistance.. *She smiles and her hair blows back in the wind* Please
take me to that island there. *She points to the island in the distance* If you do I
shall catch fish for you, if you like that. I will do something in return. It is my
word. *She smiles and waits for his reply*
Thursday, 15-Feb-01 21:06:09 Ashana
The merperson tilts his head to one side. "Sorry miss, fish I don't eat. I'll say what
though, I'll take you to the island if you can get me something of of it. The river
dried up, I can't get there amy more. A shell it is. A deal we have?"
Saturday, 17-Feb-01 19:18:43
*She smiles sweetly and nods* A shell it is then! I will bring it to you, I promise*
She prepares to climb aboard his back a bit unsurely*
Saturday, 17-Feb-01 22:49:26 Ashana
The merperson grins again. “Just hold on tight hey? And remember, when I say
'Take a deap breath' make sure you do." The mer-person quickly carries you across
the water to the island.
Sunday, 18-Feb-01 23:48:23
*She yells Thank you to the merperson and her eyes gleam brightly as she turns
into her wolf form. Black fur sprouts from hr skin and her clothes seep into her
skin. She grins and looks around, sniffing for ny important scents and such as
that*

It is then that something strikes you. Beyond the salty scent of the sea, there is
nothing. This island has no scent, nothing. Relying on site, you can see a dried up
river bed to your left. A little to the right, and in front of you, lie two great pillars of
stone, seemingly collapsed with age.
