Elders Temple

This is where villagers from both villages come to ask the Elders questions.
They live in the middle of the Enchanted forest.

Chaya knew that some villagers had arrived in Cahoon. Some had come to Vandecar as well. Her and Athara had decided to go observe and then meet back and talk about the new villagers. Chaya gently gave a mourning dove call and a white horse with a silvery mane and tail came gracefully trotting out of the forest. It's silvery white horn glistened. ~Hey girl...ready to go for a ride?~ Chaya gently stroked the young unicorn. It nodded and whickered at her. She smiled and softly swung onto it's back. Bareback with no lead or reins. She gently guided it with her legs and came to the edge of the forest. She saw them looking over the barn and the other buildings. There was only three of them so far. She would wait awhile before appearing to the one that would be the first leader. She needed to see how they interacted, what their temperaments were like. She watched for awhile and then quietly turned the unicorn back into the forest. She softly walked back to the hut that she gladly claimed as home and began making dinner over the fire. She wondered if Athara would join her tonight to talk. If not she would see her in the morning. She smiled and silently kept working.

Athara walked in followed by an enchanted purple butterfly. "Good afternoon Chaya" She said in a calm soft quiet voice.

Chaya looked up and smiled "Good afternoon Athara" she replied sweetly "how are your villagers faring?"

"Well the two I have so far are faring well. They found the nasty rat infested warehouse" She said with a shivering chill. "so we shall see what becomes of everything, How about yours?"

"Good" she nodded and replied sweetly. "Ouch..ya wish I could help with that...but any cats that come should enjoy that" she joked. "Oh mine seem to be doing ok...a little prickly with each other..but they are ranchers..they like the open range not close quarters..it's to be expected. We'll see how that pans out." She went quiet for a moment. "They found the graveyard" she said quietly

"Yes...I spose they will get ouchy with eachother...." For a moment she hung her head "Bound to happen, the Farmers haven't yet, but they will as soon as they start trimming fields by the large oak tree. And soon enough they will all find out what happened."

Chaya nodded "Maybe it is better they find out...then they won't wonder..won't think maybe someone attacked." She shrugged. "One of my villagers seems to know about plagues. I wonder what her history is..." Suddenly she tried to smile and change the subject. "When are you going to appear to your village?" she aske curiously

With a sigh she replied "as soon as there are a few more...I don't want to wait to long for they might wonder off and not stay here." She thought for a moment "How about you? decided yet when you are going to show up?"

"No not yet...I don't want them wandering off either..I can see where mine might do that. But...well one is so prickly and one is so jumpy. The other is well..quiet." She looked around as a male deer came out and looked at her before jumping back into the forest. "And it appears I have a new arrival. "Appears the bucks think the spirit animal deer is a beauty." she chuckled.

she release a loud chuckle "seems so....that makes what 3 for you, and 3 for me. not bad. I'll give it another day or so."

"Good! Ya I have...2 girls, 1...well i don't really know what he is..and then the new guy, so..that would be four" she winked

"Ohh right...you got one more" She rolled her eyes and turned to the table and grabbed her bowl of morning oats and berries.

Chaya chuckled slightly at Athara rolling her eyes. They may have been specially picked and given extremly long lives by the Gods but they were still sisters. There would always be a little rivalry there. She smiled gently "More will come" she winked. "This is a fertile valley, the land is good. It will attract more farmers"

............Fields

We walked into the woods and it smelt so wonderfully. "So how long have you had Zaric?" I asked as I leaped onto a log and balanced my way down it and then leaped off the other end.

------------> Fields

Rhea followed Jarlon along the long and then jumped down,
"Not very long actually," Rhea laughed, "He's still little, I think I've had him for about 6-7 months,"
"How about you and Imitari?"

I turned around and walked backwards "wow that's not long at all, but as your spirit animal he knows everything about you huh!" I turned around and slowed down and then walked beside Rhea "Imatari and I? Well we've been together since i've been 4, so a very long time!" I smiled

"Wow, that is a long time," Rhea laughed, "Oh yeah, I can't keep anything from Zaric,"
Zaric smiled proudly and picked up his feet as he walked beside me,
~Not one thing!~ Zaric said and then barked in agreement.

I grinned down at the young fox. Imatari looked over and leaped onto a log and balanced along it. "Hey look there" I pointed at a body of water and took off running.

"huh?" Rhea asked as Jarlon took off,
~C'mon!~ Rhea called back to Zaric and ran off after him, slower then him but could still keep him in sight.

I stopped at the body of water and quickly pulled the shirt over my and lipped my shoes off and leaped in head first and dove in and came back up a little waise in. I swam backwards my chest glistening with water and water running down my face. "c'mon on, it feels great" I laid my head back and dove in backwards.

Rhea grinned at Jarlon, taking off her dress but keeping on her shorts (and Bra) which she wore underneath and dived in the refreshingly cool water.
"Wow, This is nice," Rhea grinned and she watched Jarlon swim around, his chest glistening, Rhea laughed

-----------Stable------->

Mika wandered through the forest. She felt more at home here. Amongst the trees and the birds. It still felt like something was watching her but something often was in the forest. She heard laughing and splashing in the distance and sneaked closer to see. She saw Jarlon and Rhea playing in the water. Mika smiled slightly but instead of coming closer climbed up the tree like a monkey and went out on a thick branch so she could lay on it like a big cat and listen. Whisper climbed up behind her and went onto another branch.

Imatari got a grin on her face as she stepped backwards and then took a running leap into the water and swam up to me. She wrapped her paws around my shoulders and I rubbed her head "hey there girl"

Zaric sat at the edge of the water just looking at Rhea,
~I'm not going in~ Zaric sighed,
~What happened to your 'up for a challenge attitude?~ I teased, Zaric grumbled and got in slightly, his feet where in but not the rest of his body,
~Challenge complete~ He growled, Rhea sighed, rolled her eyes and swam over to Jarlon
