An Odd Occourance At The Grove

[cmack1028 549]

Thudrin, taking his daily stroll around the Grove, stops by the Room of Records. While taking a peak at the Dedicant Board, he notices a few new names and decides to read up on them. Almost immediately, Thudrin dozes off, snoring loudly.

 

Merely moments later, he is awoken after loudly sneezing. To his surprise, he turns to his left, noticing six Elves staring at him. He recognizes one instantly, an Elf shunned by the Order who goes by the name of Jex. Instantly forgetting about the rest of his company, Thudrin begins shouting at Jex, ordering him to leave the Grove. Before he can finish, the faint groans of the three female Wood Elves take his ear. Jex finds the time to tell Thudrin that they are Dryads, and something has gone terribly wrong with them.

 

Thudrin orders Jex to leave again as he exits the Room of Records and heads into the College area, swiftly passing by, heading for the stairs. He makes his way up to the three offices and bangs on Callax's door, barging in, interrupting a lesson Callax was giving to a Dedicant. 

 

"Callax, Ah' wouldnae bodder yeh if it wasnae an emergency," Thudrin said.

"Hrm? Oh, what's the matter now?" Callax said.

 

The Dedicant assures Callax that she can wait if it is an emergency, but Callax orders her to follow. Thudrin takes the two down the stairs, through the College and into the Room of Records. To their surprise, Jex and the other guards were gone, leaving just the three Dryads.

 

Naturally, Callax and Thudrin begin to question the Dryads, asking what is wrong and how they can help. Although the Dryads were struggling greatly to communicate successfully with the two Druids, the two were able to comprehend that there was some dark magic in the forest, affecting them. The two could only assume that this darkness was corrupting the Dryads' trees. 

 

Before they could say anything else, the Oak Dryad, a small Elf with purple hair, began to wilt. She cried a bloody tear, ooze was released from her pours. Before they knew it, the Oak Dryad's skin began to flake. Slowly but surely, her presence left the Druids and Dryads, and all that was left of her was a pile of ash. A piercing scream was heard after her passing.

 

While this was going on, the Sycamore Dryad, a tall brunette Elf, tried to assist her sister. After the Oak Dryad was gone, the same began to happen to the Sycamore Dryad. At a very slow pace, all that was left was a second pile of ash. Another piercing scream was heard afterwards, chilling the bones of Thudrin and Callax.

 

The third Dryad, a medium-height Elf with orange hair, known as the Conifer Dryad, was silent throughout the majority of the period, with an exception for her periodically running about the room, going crazy as she watched her sisters die. After her Conifer sister had passed, she grabbed Callax's arms and began to exchange words. Although the conversation was short, she reassured the Druids that there was a sort of dark magic corrupting the forest. Slowly, she too began to wilt, oozing from her pours and turning into the third and final pile of ash. A piercing scream was heard and a dark presence was felt.

 

Thudrin and Callax were helpless during this time, as they did not know anything about what was going on. A moment of silence was held afterward, followed by the exchanging of a few words from the Druids. In a matter of moments, all that was left of the three Elves were piles of ash.

Dedicant Bartley awakes from his slumber slowly and runs towards the grove with a skip in his step.

Lovely ^^ Always extremely happy to see people roleplaying with/as Dryads, and doubly so to see them in an event like this.
