- Corona Lykoi - 12-05-2007 [html]“It's home,” she answered plainly, gazing down at the worn drawbridge beneath their feet. “I guess that I got a little homesick.” And maybe part of her believed that coming back would fix everything that felt broken in her life. So many things had been disrupted, and so many things would continue to be disrupted that after a while, she wanted a sense of wholeness to fall back on. But Corona should have known that she wouldn't have found it here. Now her mother was gone, and her father was still blind in her eyes. “What brought you to this place?”[/html] - Tamerlane - 12-06-2007 [html]
- Corona Lykoi - 12-08-2007 [html] It was perhaps a minor, trivial thing to wonder how one could not have a home. She did ponder over it, but wondered if in some sense she had been sitting in that kind of pit all along. She had been between homes growing up, willing to help one and the other. The situation hadn't changed since then; her father probably needed her help, and her brother had flat out more or less asked for it. His words rang solid truths in her, answers found more easily there than listening to two sides tug at her relentlessly. “That does make perfect sense. I believe I've felt that way for a majority of my life, trying to chase down that balance where everything seems right. For me, coming back here has done little in the way of juxtaposing things.” Which naturally brought the question of why she was even bothering to stay. But even that seemingly tied back to why she had come all along. “Have you seen a lot of the world around this place?” Perhaps in a sense he would see where she was coming from, but it was never as simply as night and day for those who had ties back to such a dismal place.

- Corona Lykoi - 12-10-2007 [html] “Here and the world,” he clarified after he had spoken, though easily changing gears to the places she had been fond of, “but the human city is always an interesting place to visit, if you haven't yet. It has… an element of danger, of course, but has a lot to offer too. Museums, art galleries, libraries, shops of antiquities, a lot of it still stands. Can't guarantee it's all untouched though.” As her eyes scanned over the rocky face of the building, Corona debated what else there really was outside of the city and its neatly divided sections. “There's an old aeroplane base just outside of the city, and a run down amusement park. To the west of all of that are caverns that look like they're mostly made of up quartz.” Ironically, though she had grown up in Bleeding Souls, she had never visited all of its territories for good measure or in their entirety.

- Corona Lykoi - 12-16-2007 [html] “I would think so, and if not there… she trailed in thought with his words, “I could always give you directions to a library. I think I've seen them there before.” All of that wandering around, and Corona had never thought about maps. Moreover, if all else failed, there was always the idea of drawing up their own maps. Eyeing the cold front of the building once more, her eyes settled for a rather obvious placed door. “Do you reckon the front door is unlocked?”[/html] - Tamerlane - 12-17-2007 [html]
- Corona Lykoi - 12-26-2007 Gah, sorry for holding this up. Would you be up for fading this to black in a couple of posts? [html] With the door open and out of the way quite easily, Corona slipped past him and carefully into the sweeping darkness of the prison, their figures casting long shadows down the corridor. “Well, if you go back to the very beginning of the drawbridge and head south-west towards the skyscrapers, you'll find a rather large one nestled between them. I think it's the biggest one, so it's liable to have just about anything you're looking for,” provided of course, it hadn't burnt down to the ground or something of equal demise. But it was the pause following her words where an unpleasant itch stirred in her nose; Corona had no more buried her muzzle in the crook of her arm before she sneezed. There was one thing that jumped out in her mind about the place, and that was that few had been there in quite some time.[/html] - Tamerlane - 12-28-2007 OOC – we can fade it to black now if you’d like. One last post from you? IC – [html]
- Corona Lykoi - 01-01-2008 [html] There was nothing of real interest to Corona inside of the prison walls so by the time they had found a way back out into the world as it they knew, she had long forgotten about how she had felt some while ago. Rather disappointed in the lack of anything overly interesting, his offer was a very tempting one to go along with. Nodding at his proposal, the two headed off towards the city and the libraries that it contained.[/html] |
