Okay, just a note, Brookeria joined this RP and she… kind of has never posted. So, I'm willing to give her character up for adoption unless she comes back. For now, I'm going to use her current charrie.
Ashlyn~
We arrive at the Capitol after scarcely an hour's journey. My heart is banging against my ribcage and a million butterflies are taking flight within my stomach. I feel like I'm going to throw up. My anxiety must show because Jorge says (a little too brightly),
"Ah, look, the other volunteers!" He calls out to the drover to lead the caravan over. I swing myself off the palfrey before she even stops moving. The four others are already there and I look over them with interest.
Two girl, two boys. And me. We stand there, looking at each other for a moment, unsure what do do. Everything suddenly becomes very real.
The first girl, the one with bleached-white hair and the disconcerting green eyes, sticks out her hand to me and says, "Oasis of the Black Sands."
"That's an odd name," I say before I can stop myself.
"What's yours?" she asks.
"Ashlyn." I answer, deciding that my first name is sufficent information for now.
"That's an odd name," Oasis of the Black Sands says with a wry grin.
I ignore her mockery and turn to the other three. "So, who're you all?"
The second girl has an eyepatch over her eye and says in a low, raspy voice, "Journey."
Another odd name, I think again, but this time I am wiser and swallow the words down.
"You can call me Hawk if you like that better," the eyepatch girl says.
The first boy steps forward to introduce himself, a big grin on his face. He seems perfectly at ease. Or perhaps he is just skilled at hiding anxiety. "I'm Godric, son of Lord Eadric of the Unicorn duchy."
"Not a noble…" I hear Journey mutter under her breath.
"Alaric," the final quester interrupts, looking a bit bored. His sharp crystal eyes bore into me and I wonder if he can see into my mind or something.
"Right then," I say, swinging my satchel over my shoulders. "Let's get this show on the road."

Hawk~
Okay….Do we have any idea of where we are going? No? What about supplies, weapons, water and food? No? Horses or other mode of transportation? No? A map at least, or some plan or goal? No? Alrighty! This will be fun, let's go!
In all seriousness, does anyone have any actual experiance with this sort of thing? As l look around, l am doubting this. l seem to be the oldest one here, everyone else is at least five years younger then me. Ashlyn gives us an expectant look, as if to say, "Well? What are you waiting for?"
"So just…..start walking?" Godric questions, uncertain. "This road lead to Shadowpine?" Alaric rolls his eyes.
"The genius has figured it out."
Godric gives him a glare.
"Yes," sighs Ashlyn. "We walk, l guess. Horses are in rare supply these days, and yes, this road leads in the general direction of Shadowpine."
"No one was given a map?" l ask. Everyone shakes their heads. Well that is strange. Not even a map. The less we know, the better or something? Why in the world would they not give us something as simple as a map? l already feel like this whole thing is going to crash and burn….badly.
l sigh and follow the others as we start towards the gate of the large city. l have a feeling that this is going to long and hard.

Abi, I would love to post, but I can't, because if I do Daeris is going to be harsh with Ladasha. LoL and I have had a spat, and I can't say anything to her without blowing up at her.

~Ladasha Lilith~"I'm Godric, son of Lord Eadric of the Unicorn duchy." I've stolen another crystal ball and am sitting on my bed, peering into it.Godric! So that's his name! I stare at all the questers. What kind of name is Oasis of the Black Sands? Journey is a strange name, too.One of the girls mutters something about nobles. Whatever she said, Mother Melantheia would probably agree. She used to be a noble, so now she hates them.I really hope that Mother doesn't find out who I'm in love with. Like, I really, really, really, hope she won't find out.I could peer into this ball for hours, but sadly, I must go down to help with another potion."Ladasha Lilith Black, are you coming?" Melantheia calls from downstairs."Yes, mother." I shove the crystal ball under my bed and dash down.

I feel bad for doing this, but I really don't want this RP to die. I'm building off Shadow Dragon's idea.
~The Queen~
I'm really worried for Nekaria. I just know that Medea and Melantheia are coming back! The five questers are my only hope of stopping them.
I need to know exactly what Medea and Melantheia are trying to do. Why did they take those five children? And will they try to take over Nekaria? I shudder at the thought.
I sent enough to stop them, but not enough so that everyone will know what's going on. I'm still reluctant for even five volunteers to know who those two witches are, but it's my only choice.
I stare out the castle window, watching the questers leave. I pray that they will succeed.
