An ill wind is blowing.
What seems to be, is not exactly what it is...

Tayro arrived at a tree, a bit larger than the others in the area.
"Here we go..."-he silentl said, as a whisper told by the hundred-year old trees that inhabited the woodland.
He streched his arm into a particular root of the tree, that was a bit lifted from the ground. He shook it, like long-time hello, to a friiend of the past.
The tree, in response, seemed to curve itself, like bowing to the boy before it.
Maybe it was the wind.... no-one knew.

Suddenly, the tree's roots started to move slightly, revealing a small staircase by the tree. Tayro smiled.
"Phew... at least they didn't change the manner to enter... or it would be harder."
He then started climbing down the staircase.

The air around him was extremely humid and moisty, like the earth on a rainy day.
Quickly though, the earth around them turned to solid gray bricks.

"Yes, I'm arriving to the passageway that leads to my base..."



Tayro let go of the staircase. He was standing on the floor of what seemed to be a large passageway. A few lamps were lighting the dark passage, frightening a bit its inhabitants. Spiderwebs were quite common in the area, a few bugs were around. The echoing sound of water also could be heard.

"Guess they left the passageway as it was... although they didn't clean the place up... Let's keep going..."

Suddenly, the boy spots a large group of... things ahead.
"er... I better not approach alone. They have it really well guarded. I can't proceed like this..."
Tayro silently hits the wall with his fist.
"No point in staying here then... I better retreat back to North Castle... at least for a while."
He turned in the opposite direction, to leave the passage.

OOC: This part is for the actual beggining of the quest to reclaim Tayro's base. For it to start, more people must join in with Tayro in North Town

For another few hours, Nogare trekked towards Taryo's Base. He had been summoned, and he intended on getting this base back, no matter what... just as long as this mage was a good person...

But when he got here, the army was not here. He was worried, and looked around. Where was the base? There was no base, or soldiers? Was he at the right place?He had to be; this was the place that Tayro had said to go. He had to find this base. He began to look around, but found nothing but Deku Trees, and grass, and falling leaves. He waited for a while longer, then began to continue looking. Nothing...

kasei arrived on the spot hey, nogare, he searches the area, isn't this where tyro said the base was? Im prety sure it was... ow! kasei had tripped over a root that had just sprung into the air, revealing a passage, now thats a base! nice idea, hiding it under ground! kasei walks in, then turns around, hey, nogare, you comming?

Nogare looks at the Sheikah, then behind him. "I may not be finished my training, but I do know that two men cannot take over a base, unless they were as gfted as the Great Hero, which neither of us are. I say we should wait until the others come and assist us. For now, we should wait." Nogare knew that Kasei would not care, and go in alone, being that he loved war, but he knew that he had to wait... He tightened his grip on Belegcam, and said no more...

oh well, kasei said, but you probably have the right idea, we should wait for backup... Hey! while we wait, want to spar?

Nogare turned around at him, with a bellicose smile on his face. Was this Sheikah serious? He was. Obviosly this man did not know that he was the son of Greyblade.

"Well, if you are going to stay fair and drop your dagger, then sure. Staff to staff. But I warn you; I am trained to be more harder and more quicker with a staff than you mercanaries have been trained with your love of wealth and death. Let it be to the first blow, aye? That sounds fair. I will not harm you as bad as I have been trained to." Kasei nodded. Nogare raised his staff, and spun it so that his right hand would switch from being at the top of the staff to the bottom, and his left hand took the place of the right. The Hylian looked the sheikah deep in the eye, watching his every move. Kasei now had his staff in hand, and dagger thrown behind him. Nogare was expressionless. The tip of Kasei's staff had a strange srot of shape at the top, while Nogare's was perfectly straight. The two circled around one another. okay thought Nogare as one waited for the other to charge. He is a sheikah. Sheikah are the fastest race of Hyrule, and of any other land... Ib have to make sure that his staff is always below his waist level, and then attack... Or opposite; make sure that his weapon is above his head, so it is an opening for the stomach....

Suddenly, the sheikah ran at him. Seeing him coming for his side, he lifted his staff to be vertical to Kasei's. The sound of wood smash together echoed in the air, causing nearby birds to quickly fly away. The fight just began.

OOC: Ok, Kasei, to make this RP fight (without stats) to make sense, since we are about the same in health, and strength and such, you are faster, but I am smarted; that is our only difference. So use that as your advantage. That is all I have for help...

kasei begins stiking at high speed, nogare was smart, but not fast, or trained as an assasin, kasei strikes up, and nogare barely blockes the attackes, the dual goes on like this for more than an hour, but neither competitor is willing to give up, kasei begins to use some aincent shiekah attacks, but nogare is still able to fight off his strikes! kasei strikes harder, faster, without ever truly giving out his harshest blows, he knows nogare is getting tired, blocking and stiking for more than an hour, soon, the fight will end...

OOC: youre turn, nogare.

I need him to get off guard. He's stronger than I thought. "You have skill, Kasei." should I still go easy? I don't want to harm him, but I don't want to make a fool of my father, either...

"Are you ready to lose yet, sheikah?" Nogare laughed through gasps for breath. But he was serious despite the joke. This is a spar, so I can't use any of my father's combinations he taught me... besides, I don't want to kill him. So they continue. How can sheikah be this tireless. Kasei was sweating, yes, but he he kept moving the same speed the whole time, while he was slowing.

Then, a bunch of things happened at once; as Kasei's staff hit Belegcam, he drew back his staff faster than he had been going. Nogare had no time to block it, but instead of Kasei hitting Nogare, an arrow did in the arm. Kasei quickly turned around, and there, by the base, were three moblins, all with bows. Nogare could resist this; it was only one. His father had pushed him harder than this...

But then another came; this one just below his neck. In that instant, Nogare fell to the ground, senselessly.

kasei looked down at nogare, then at the moblins maybee I shouldn'tve opened the base...


kasei runs to pick up his dagger, and then nogare, once the senseless warrior was safe, kasei returned to the moblins, he had his own bow, but no arrows, well, if he survived the fight, that'll change .

kasei begins the fight by stabbing the nearest moblin in the neck, then setting it on fire, the other two are larger and harder to take out, so kasei stood his distance and cast more fire, luckily, his dual with nogare didn't decrease his aim, once the ashes stopped burning, kasei picked up fifteen arrows, then went back to nogare to check on his condition...

Nogare was woundede as an average arrow would cause, and really needed a physician.

kaseihad little training as a medical doctor, so he went into the woods and gathered some herbs he thought might help...

Wind rushed, as Tayro ran at quite a high speed towards his base.
Yeowch! I'm really late! The others will probably have my head for this!
HE came to a stop, reaching his destination. A wounded knight was the only person he saw. He sighed, as he was not the last one to arrive.
"Whew... Sorry... I was... delayed. Well, shall we go in?"
He neared the large tree, and patted one particular root that was raised.
Grumbling sounds were heard, and the earth shaked violently.
The tree roots lifted themselves abit, and gently spinned, revealing a moisty entrance.
"Now, let's wait for the others to arrive..."
We're close... we're really close!

kasei reeturned with some herbs to find that tyro was there... kasei then put some herbs into nogares mouth.. and waited...

Nogare murmured. He was still badly wounded, but was still able to open his eyes. He noticed Kasei, and then eyed Tayro. He started. He was worried about what had happened, then thought, "It's the past. Nothing big yet. The battle is what's important right now. I'll worry about the wounds if I survive."

"Kasei, how long was I out?!" He looked around. Before Kasei was able to finish saying, Nogare looked back to Tayro. "Sir, we were attacked. If I was out too long, it won't be long before the next wave comes. We need the men here quickly!"

"Hm... don't worry... If I'm certain, which I believe I am... they won't leave the base so soon... You can say it's a feeling of mine!"-he jokingly stated-"Well, two of us are here... I hope the others don't take long to arrive..."
Tayro quietly sighed, not wanting to show it to his partners. He knew more about the opponents than he would spit out...
I will show you...
