Location: Maztica, in the jungle

Time: Morning


As you depart, the Druids whisper something to Tabby.


Arriving back at the marked tree North has everyone join hands in a circle around it and he again attempts to cast his spell, but this time he draws on the Pluma magic.


The special fibers that the Maztican gods blended into the Weave bind to the Gnomish ¡®belly spellbook¡¯, taking control of his actions?(or so he would say). He marches in place with closed eyes, raising his knees high and kind of bouncing back and forth shifting his weight between alternating legs. He bobs his head forward and back like a pigeon and begins to flap his arms as he chants ¡®coo coo caw caw¡¯.


He steps forward into the tree, followed quickly by Sweet William, then Tabby with Flynn close behind, and finally Cerina nudges Brother Ashley forward and through.


You momentarily find yourself in total darkness then a wave of nausea hits as you try to acclimate to your new surroundings. You¡¯ve obviously dropped down below the surface, passing from the above ground marked tree through a different tree¡¯s root structure into a subterranean chamber. They obviously weren¡¯t expecting anyone because the area is empty and unlit.


Brother Ashley complains about the darkness, mutters something about the Gnome being a sorcerer not a wizard, then retches violently from the nausea of the improvised Tree Stride.


The chamber is at the end of a narrow passageway, roughly carved out with picks and mandrills. It¡¯s barely 5 feet wide and 5 feet high. Brother Ashley bangs his head and yelps again.


Those with darkvision can see a long, narrow corridor, maybe 40 or 50 feet long. You don¡¯t see any side passages, just a long, straight, unlit tunnel.




And what do you do?

Cerina will go last, with her bow in her left hand and two arrows in the right, "Come on Brother Ashley, we don't want to miss the party."

"Thank you for your aid.", Tabby respectively replied to the druids.

Before she followed the others, the little feline asked the pair, "Do you have any words of wisdom or advice for what we should look out for after we enter the tree portal? Any help would be appreciated!".

Once they replied, she will smile, thank them, and will take up position behind Sweet William.

Perhaps it is from Norths' previous experience of transforming into a Tabaxi creature himself, but the little gnome starts feeling awfully playful once the cat crew starts meowing at each other. He prances on over and starts to rub up on their legs. He looks up at them with big Gnome-Cat eyes and says "Meow!" and then looks over a Tabby and then back to the two who may be her cousins.

"You all look so similar." he purrs "You must be cut from the same cloth, the good cloth that is - the good Tabby cloth." He sits down next to them and begins to knead their kitty butts and plays with their tales.

Perhaps it is from Norths' previous experience of transforming into a Tabaxi creature himself, but the little gnome starts feeling awfully playful once the cat crew starts meowing at each other. He prances on over and starts to rub up on their legs. He looks up at them with big Gnome-Cat eyes and says "Meow!" and then looks over a Tabby and then back to the two who may be her cousins.

?

"You all look so similar." he purrs "You must be cut from the same cloth, the good cloth that is - the good Tabby cloth." He sits down next to them and begins to knead their kitty butts and plays with their tales.

?

Little magical whiskers pop out of his cheeks, an illusion no doubt.

?

Then he rolls on his back and starts repeating words he hears...

?

"Bomb-----Bastic! Bomba-stic! Bommmmmmmbastic!" he continues to roll around.

"If the?leonin can't find the spear, how are we supposed to?"

¡°I, wait,¡± Brother Ashley stammers. ¡°You¡¯re both named Sh¡¯kuul?¡±


¡°Sh¡¯kuul is not a name,¡± the dark one explains sidling close to the Priest. ¡°It does not translate easily to your common tongue.¡±


¡°It is the way of Pluma. It is everything. It is the essence of Maztica,¡± the green one continues.


The dark one steps close to Tabby and says, ¡°Welcome home, Forever Running.¡±?


The green one steps closer and asks, ¡°Why have you returned?¡±


¡°And why do you seek Sh¡¯kuul?¡± they ask in unison.




And what do you do?

Tabby smiled, "What my good and very pretty dragonborn lady just asked. We seek out kidnapped lion kind and we were asked to ask you...two...to join us on this most heroic and fuzzy quest.". Oh, how she didn't want the dog men to be the baddies in this!? Dogs were good people, and she REALLY wanted to meet a puppy girl or boy.

OOC: Does Tabby see anything unusual about these Tabaxi? She finds it odd that the jaguar guy didn't say there were two of these..
