Marcus looks at Mina after hearing what she said:
Marcus: “What the actual heck’s she talking about Anthony?”
Anthony: “Girl stuff I suppose.”
Lucretia looks at Cate and Andrew.
Lucretia: “Charming isn’t she?”

Gemma gave Mina a sympathetic look. Things must have been tough for the priestess if she hadn't eaten anything as good as roasted... rat? for a while.
"I'm not sure, I've never seen shoes like those before." Gemma loved the shoes. "They are beautiful. Just watch your step on the rocks and cliffs and I think you'll be ok." she smiled, ignoring the 'stepping on people' comment.
Genii stared at Erras with a strange expression that was somewhere between hysterically laughing and screaming in outrage. "WHAT!?" he shook his head, not quite believing what Erras just told him.
"But... but I'm in love with Dani." Genii angrily pointed a finger back in the direction of the cave. Erras always seemed to flinch whenever Genii used the 'L' word.
"It is a King's duty to-" Erras took a deep breath and began to explain the way of things (in this world at least).
"No!" Genii re-aimed the angry finger at Erras and his head shaking intensified. "Nope. I won't do it."
Mina ignored the sympathetic look since the fact that she hadn't eaten for.... three hours was weighing on her badly and she really loved any food as long as it was eatable.
Mina put down the food she was just eating to look at Gemma in disbelieve. "You what?" She asked her jar dropping down. "Ok, there is something we really need to change here. What shoe size are you?" Mina asked already rummaging through the bag she was carrying and had ignored until now. "This is just..." Mina was flaring one arm as she was searching for words while still rummaging with the other one. "Unacceptable." She finally found the word she was looking for.
"Yes..." Cate was rather intrigued by Mina's appearance. The same couldn't be said for Andrew, who was just lazying around on his back.
Suddenly, a loud crack echoed through the cavern. Serenity (accidentically) broke through part of the wall. When she gets up, the woman notices something... different. Her surge had returned to her, and she starts to remember a little bit more, as she flexes her fingers.
"My... this power... why did I forget? How?"
Danivere was trying to be discreet but saw how Serenity has regained her surge, which was reason to be anxious.
((I'm gonna head to bed, good night!
"Um..." Gemma watched Mina rummaging through her bag. She had no idea what shoe size she was. Usually she'd just hold a shoe's sole against the base of her foot and if it looked big enough she'd buy a pair. Her own boots were well worn, and mended in placed, she'd probably had them for years. "I'm not sure." she lifted her foot and looked back at it. "Small?"
"Good!" Gemma took a second to comment on what Anthony had said. "We should put a bell on him." she joked - but actually, that wasn't a bad idea.
Erras and Genii continued to squabble, but they both stopped and turned to look in the direction of the loud cracking sound. They caught a glimpse of the back of Serenity as she... walked through the basalt wall - the hexagonal columns crumbling, toppling and thumping onto the ground as she went.
They looked back at one another with panicked faces then both scrambled back to the cave.
Bellah stood up and turned to look at Serenity barging through the cave wall. The Aamami looked worried.
The column rock formations above the group didn't seem to appreciate the sudden remodelling and a few loose rocks and boulders dropped from the roof - not enough to cause serious injury, but another bash or knock to the cave like that and they might need to evacuate.
((Hey @Kittyfox
in the cave - Mina decided to join the group (though what she really wants to do is find beasts ). She was just meeting the Metals and chatting to Gemma (about shoes
).
Daemon is writing in his book, Andrew is chilling out laying on the ground. Cate is staring at Mina and trying to figure her out I think.
Genii and Erras were having a private discussion about something (related to Danivere) outside, which led to them arguing, but they were interrupted by
Serenity has just activated her surge powers for the first time after loosing her memories. She just smashed through the cave wall asking questions, so I guess we will find out what happens in the morning when Dual is back.
Danivere, Genii, Erras and even Bellah seem worried about it. Gemma not so much, as she’s only known Serenity in her docile state.))
“Who’s Ashley?” Gemma asked because she was nosy. “Is that a friend from back home?” She smiled at Anthony and Marcus.
“It’s alright... just try to stay calm...” Erras said to Serenity (or was it to himself?) as he stepped through the new hole in the wall.
“Touch Dani again and I’ll-“ Genii was all fired up from his argument with Erras and now Serenity was on the rampage (maybe) he was ready to kick butt... well, maybe not kick with his bad leg. He clenched his fists instead.
Erras waved his arms around to respectfully signal to Genii to ‘shut the f- up!’ There was still a chance Serenity hadn’t remembered anything yet. Maybe she’d just accidentally discovered her incredible strength powers.
((It’s really late so I better head to bed. Night everyone. ))
Mine stopped rummaging through her bag giving Gemma a serious one over before she returned her attention to the bag. "Well let's try this pair it might fit." She pulled out a pair of low plateau heels handing them over to Gemma before turning to the two talking to the girl wondering what they were talking about since she didn't really understand who was who and what was what.
Then suddenly everything was interrupted by falling stones and some weird loud sound. Mina didn't even realize what was happened when she already reacted her instincts alone had pushed her to jump back retrieving until she was standing in the cave entrance looking at the whole scene with the muscles around her eyes tighten and her whole body in reaction mode ready to run or fight depending on what was coming next. She even touched the tattoos on her shoulder mumbling a prayer to make it easier for her to summon the hunt if needed.
Gemma took Mina’s shoes and turned them over in her hands excitedly. She put them down on the ground and was halfway through pulling off her own shoes when Serenity crashed through the wall. As Mina scarpered Gemma panicked and hid behind Anthony.
“You were hit in battle with a poisoned dart...” Erras began to explain to Serenity what was going on. “... you were very ill and when you awoke you had lost your memory.”
Genii thought keeping information from Serenity was only going to make her angrier and more confused. He knew how that felt. The Siren got closer to Danivere and held her hand, glaring at Serenity as he went.
((Alright, so Gemma and Mina were having conversations about shoes and stuff in general, and Genii and Erras were discussing things about Danivere and most likely the fact that Erras wants to drop Genii by the capital, I think.
Serenity accidentically activated her surge for the first time since she lost her memory. Some of the others are concerned and try to keep the past secret.
"Indeed, and we took you to Gemma's tavern so we could take care of you." Cate joins in with Erras to conceal the truth. After all, if Serenity remembered Cate was the one who drained her strength, she might actually be torn apart.
Danivere was not sure what to do. The queen was back at full strength now, while Serenity was at a weaker state and less inclined for combat. It would be a smart move to deal with Serenity once and for all right here and now.
That's how the old Danivere would have thought. But that's no longer how she thinks now. Killing Serenity would go too far, even if she was keen on murdering Danivere. She decides to do nothing but watch Erras and Cate try and convince Serenity.
