LIGHT

Warmth, love and kindness.
The Life Stream glimmers and glitters with joy, swirls of shimmering dust dancing around the ray of life.
It was time for new ones to test their wings.


One by one, new adventurers now arrive in the Tree. As one gain wings and rises to the second floor, another light brings in the next person. Soon, a steady stream of people from all kinds of worlds, times and realities come to join the others. Whether confused, angry, excited or scared, your arrival is welcomed with nothing but joy as the fireflies and glow worms descend to greet their new friends.

The Tree offers no explanation and no reason, but the truth is undeniable.

As you will soon realize, it isn't easy to be tiny.

[ it would absolutely be a disappointing fight if he chose nai as his opponent, but such a situation isn't on his mind, not yet anyway. the older boy speaks more phrases that aren't easy to understand, so nai doesn't say anything at first. he'd rather concentrate on saving the firefly, but even he can see that it isn't working. so after a minute, he peeks up again. ] ... You really can't make the ice go away?

[fallensun]

I already told you I can't. It's not like I made it out of nothing.

[He shrugs. It's not like it's his problem.]

That stupid pillar of light is messing with my magic somehow, so I can't use heat, so I guess you're screwed. Too bad. Find another weird bug.

[Like he said, there's a ton of them.]

[nullity]

Uuu... [ not the answer he was hoping for and so his expression falls once again. he tightens his arms around the ice and sadly watches the bug trapped inside until something occurs to him. he picks his head up to the 'pillar of light,' staring at it with wide eyes. maybe...

he shuffles a little closer and moves the block of ice from his lap to the edge of where the light reaches. this light has made him feel warm and safe ever since coming here, so maybe it'll do something to help the firefly too. it's a simple idea from a simple mind, but nai believes it'll work. ]

[fallensun]

Huh? What do you think's gonna happen if you try that?

[He sits up straighter and watches with interest. Who knows? Maybe something actually might happen. It feels like a solid pillar of white Rukh, after all. There's no reason why something couldn't happen. Or maybe the kid could drop the thing and have it fall to the first floor and shatter. That would get the bug out of the ice, at least. Probably flatten it, too.]

[nullity]

[ he looks over at the question. ] Um...this light is really nice and warm. Maybe it will help make the ice go away because it's hurting Mr. Glowy.

[ not even a 'maybe it'll melt the ice,' just 'maybe it'll help.' better this than for nai to actually drop the ice and cause some damage. ]

[fallensun]

Heh. Maybe it will. Maybe it'll just fry the thing. Who knows?

[It's not like he cares. Might be interesting to see what the pillar is capable of, though. If it can undo his magic somehow, that could be a problem. He's pretty sure it's why he can't use Heat or Lightning Magic. Probably why his Gravity Magic is screwed up, too, though that might also be the weird rocks on the first floor.]

[nullity]

[ his hands remain on the top of the ice, and his expression turns into one of confusion. ] Fry? Is that bad?

[ or is it good? who knows. ] This light won't do anything bad, right?

[fallensun]

[Judar flops onto his back and folds his arms behind his head.]

I already told you I don't know what it's gonna do, but no, it's not gonna do anything bad. That's what's so annoying about that stupid thing.

[nullity]

[ nai watches him and then thinks on that as best he can. he doesn't understand why something like this warm light would be 'annoying.' as long as it doesn't do this 'frying' thing. he soon returns his attention to the block of ice, gripping it tightly with his hands. if gareki or yogi or tsukumo were here, they'd know what to do to save the firefly.

a few fireflies approach nai and linger close to him, or perhaps close to the beam of light, but he speaks to them as if they came for him. ] Ah... I'm sorry. Your friend will get better, okay?
