Warnings: Standard Alastor warning. Will update with any additional warnings as needed.

Alastor practically skipped towards the tunnel, summoning a ball of light to better light the way more for his partner's benefit than his own. His shadow friends preferred the dark, after all. However, it wouldn't do for her to trip and twist her ankle.

He looked back at her, grin a mile wide, as his ears swiveled about to catch every possible sound. "Not the way I thought I'd get a chance to explore the Wasteland but I can't say I'm disappointed! What about you, my dear?"

He suspected Madhuri had agreed to team up with him to balance out his enthusiasm. The Orkili natives looked like they didn't know how to react to him: a mix of deep gratitude for keeping the nightmare energy from exploding outward until help could arrive and disturbed fascination from the way he'd inhaled a whole carcass (still didn't know what animal since he'd been too tired to identify it much less taste it) raw before passing out on a cot once the danger had passed.

Threaded | Flat

The light was rather handy, as the tunnels were quick to swallow up any light that tried to peer in from the surface. After the strange happenings involving the subterranean folk, she found herself with an itch to figure out of there was something that could have set all this off in the first place.

Alastor needed a rock, as many others did in Reverein. To delve further into the world of dreams was an opportunity one didn't- ironically- sleep on, so she seized her chance while also vowing to wrangle the silly demon should something go awry.

She kept her voice low, cautious. "I can't deny feeling of similar sentiment. We simply don't know enough of this place and I can't sit and twiddle my thumbs sighing, 'WELL, guess we're staying penned in' into perpetuity."

Hmm. Let's see- "I think my eyes have adjusted a touch. Can you lower the light a little for me? I wouldn't wish to alert any... 'friends' down here that they're no longer alone."
