James looks at Dogura and says,The names James and I could leave if I'm not welcome to the team.

Eximius, having finished his piece of jackfruit, walked up to the newcomer and smiled.

"If they welcomed me, then we'll welcome you, James! Come join the party!"

As Ex punched the new Hylian lightly on the arm in a display of friendliness, Victor walked over and joined the group. Nodding at James, he continued walking until he reached Dogura. In a slightly irritated voice, the Bard spoke.

"Yes, could we get moving again, please? I think it's been an hour already..."

James then looks at Victor smiles and says;Thanks buddy.

(SORRY)

Dogura steps up on a rock. Alright everyone! We have had our rest! Everyone UP! He steppes off the rock. We will continue into this forest! The tear in time, can not be far off. Lets move! He said, as he walked into the forest. As they walked, an erie haze set over the forest. Darkin stopped. Darkin! Have you not had enough rest you lazy bumb? Darkin shot a piercing look at Dogura. Dogura knew from the look in his eyes, that something was wrong. Darkin. What troubles you? Darkin fixed his eyes on the sky... I feel... a sadness setting over this place... As if we are not welcome... Darkin began slowly walking again... Dogura could feel the same thing... They contiue thier walk into the Haze... I wonder if anyone else is feeling it... Dogura thought Anxiously... A bead of sweat rolls down Doguras forehead... As they venture further into the unknown......

Fully rested and rejuvenated, Blank strolls casually alongside the group as they continue their adventure. He does not consider the possible traps or enemies that may lay ahead, but keep his mind on two things: possible treasure, and the tear in time. Curiosity sparking inside him, he decides to break the silence with a question.

So, Dogura. How did you come across this rumour in the first place?

OOC: Guys, don't let this die!

OOC: Sorry. Thats all i can say. No excuses on my part. Lets end this thing before Alpha's big quest. It was getting near the end anyway.

IC: As they walked through the forest, light flittered through the trees, and made the path look beautiful. Dogura hearing Blank's coment, motioned him toward him, as the rest of the troup talked among themselves. Dogura began to explain. "Good question Blank. I was walking through Deku Forest, I was bored to tears, and tired of walking, so I unwrapped the lunch I had with, me and sat down to a sandwich." As Dogura explained, he made funny motions with his hands without realizing he was doing so. A bad habit on his part. "As I enjoyed the flavor of the sandwich, I heard someone whispering. No doubt a Deku, by the severe accent. Thier W's were always pernounced funny, because of the shape of thier mouth." Dogura boasted, showing his wisdom. "As I wandered tword the voice, I spotted a gang of Deku bandits. I decided to listen in. I heard them speak of a tear in time. They were plotting to find it, and get rich off the discovery. I knew it was nothing but hear say, but my curiosity got the best of me. I visited the Hyrule Library went through many books before I found anything on a tear in time. It was a dust old book on a shelf. I opened the page, and read.
Once there was an ancient civilization. They worshiped a giant god. His name was Odolwa. They were late on thier sacrifices, and the god became angry. He flung them all into an infinate abyss. Thier civilization dissapeared without a trce. No arcitecture, no scrolls, no artifacts. Nothing. The other Gods were shamed by thier brothers actions, and created a labyrnith, too dangerouse for any mortal to cross. They sealed Odolwa in a crystal. That is the tale that has been told."
Dogura realized that some of the troop behind him had quieted to listin to the tale. As they walked along the path they came to a clearing. Anything could be beyond it. Dogura turned to face the troop, and decided to let them prepare.

Blank is silent throughout the duration of Dogura's tale. He runs the names and information through his head. Odolwa. Late sacrifices. Dangerous Labrynth. Crystal. It is not difficult for the Hylian to makes sense of the tale and easily relate it to the task at hand.

So, assuming the story is correct, this is the dangerous labyrinth? But how did you take a story of a wasted civilization and process a rumour of a tear in time? Was it created when this Odolwa fellow was trapped in his crystal?

As the group reaches the clearing, the nomad stops and makes sure he is prepared for what lay beyond. He doubts it will be the nicest of voyages, but he has already been through the rest.

Dogura turned to Blank. "I was curiouse about the hole in time and space. I have a theory that the tear in time, that the deku bandits spoke of, is the infinite abyss that Odolwa flung the civilization into. It's a strange theory yes, but i have my scences about me." Dogura waited for someone among the other travelers to pipe up, before they would continue.

James overHearing this story of Dogura's says:Wow!I can't beleave something like that would happen. Kinda creapy if you ask me.

OOCSo im guessing everyone is ready!
IC: Dogura turned to the clearing, as they all stepped out into the opening. What lie before them could only be describes as incredible. Ruins everywhere, broken down homes, and structures. A buffet for the eyes. And in the center. An ominouse purple hole. Dogura took a step forward. "Could it possibly be?" Dogura said, completely astonished. "Wait a minute... If we just crossed the ruin, then... EVERYBODY GET BACK!!" Dogura screamed, but it was too late. The giant beast that was Odolwa stepped out from behind the tall trees, and reached for Dogura. Dogura turned around to see the giant hand comming toward him...

James seeing this happen had past memories rush back into his mind about the massacur on his family and friends and chanted afew words and shot a fire ball at Odalwa in attempt to destract the beast and said:[/b]I'm not gonna let this happen!my family died the same way exept it was by moblins!
