Date & Time: 8/30

Warnings: ??? ?



[the whole world looks different, smells different, sounds different...it's really not, he knows, he's sure, but all the same. it's disorienting, the way the buildings look, the way the people smell, the way the world sounds. all well and fine for a cat, but Martin remembers Exsilium for other things.

too bad those things rarely included remembering routes and buildings. it makes straying beyond the Hold a hazardous thing, to say the least...but once he's finally free of the Hold, he can trust a little in the way the air smells the further from people and things to lead him well beyond. and he knows there's something out there for him.

or was; he's still not sure how much time's passed.

he's well off the mark to start, but going in circles, he thinks, will help. he knows he can't stray too far.

lions aren't distance runners, that's for sure. but he pushes himself as fast as he can when at last he sees the structure he's been hoping to find. the lake, too – that's undeniable proof.

dropping to a heavy lope, he croaks out a loud sound without thinking. Koltira!]

[Koltira recognizes the lion-form -- remembers it from his brief time in a living body. He runs towards it, his eyes wide, but at the same time, he wonders--where is Martin? Where is the child? Why only the spirit?]

Martin? You're back ... [He stops, frowning.] ... in a manner of speaking. What's happened?
deadelfwalking: and i'm bout to punch your lights out (oh no a fight's out)

[He touches Martin-lion's head, surprised by the corporeality of him. His body is solid and strong, covered in soft, thick fur. Koltira runs his fingers through it, amazed.]

Martin ... this is not right.
