Hunters on the Web [Ronan]

Their astral hands met, but instead of holding, Sam tugged away and threads of Ronan's soul were pulled out and threaded into the ever more complex magical structure of the Origin stone. Its runes glowed even on this energetic plane, a beacon to Drykas wandering this far afield. It would be good to have news from far away, though, to be prepared for threats from without.

Finally his manipulation of the web energies was complete, everything tied off. When the runes flashed, he knew it was done. Already this Origin was linked to the rest of them, power seeping into its well from as far away as Endrykas. Soon it would spool off its own lines, and those would help web-walkers travel beyond the bounds of their bodies.

Long live the Web, he said, and his astral body sparkled with weary mirth. He began to climb back into his body, pouring his soul energies in from the crown of his head to the tips of his toes. His body tingled, but it was no longer the painful firing of nerves. It was only occasionally uncomfortable anymore, and some of the Masters claimed the reunion of soul and body even became pleasurable with practice, familiarity, and power.

"It is done," he agreed with a wan smile, his lips still tingling, his voice a little strange. With very little effort, he could have tipped over and fallen asleep right then and there, but then he wouldn't be a very impressive mentor for Ronan, and would not hold up the standards of the Watch.

"Now you see why Leto can teach us things? The runes. And the more work you do mending the Web, the easier it will be to learn tricks for the Origins."

The Origin glowed with their power, the process complete. Ronan slowly shifted back into his physical body. That tingly fuzziness filled him as always, hitting his head especially hard.

"Of course," Ronan said slowly, realising the extent of Leto's skills. Glyphs and runes - seemingly simple symbols, that could hold and unlock such great potential and power. "I should ask him about gylphing. I think it would be useful."

It was a very Drykas job. Wayfarers, keeping the Web in tact, and sinking Origins to extend its reach to travellers. Those who could see the lines could follow, and those who were skilled could do even greater things with them.

He had learnt a lot today. Of hunting, skinning, and Webbing.

"Now, I really am shattered."

Ronan grinned, sitting down against the cave wall. He'd get some food, and then he'd probably sleep. At the moment, he felt like he could sleep for days. Tapping into magick still did that to him.

He smiled at Sam. He would not voice his thanks again - he had done that enough - but he gave him a knowing look. The Watcher was sure to understand.

With a tired smile, Sama'el mirrored Ronan's lean into the wall, taking a seat. They could share their weariness and weakness too, these two, and together take their meal and their rest. Such was the way of the Drykas.

Injury: Abdominal Reducible Hernia (From hoisting Olidosapux while Ronan "watched as Sama'el hoisted the heavy corpse up a little") Will require either an Expert in Medicine or Twice marked Healer. This wound will be aggravated by riding, but will not be fully felt until arrival in Avanthal. Q demands it.

10 pounds of Olidosapux meat (Poorly Cut)
5 pounds of Olidosapux hide (poor quality)
1/2 pound of squirrel meat (Poorly cut)
1 Squirrel Hide (Average quality)


Well done, Sam makes a great boss and teacher, and is clearly the strongest 100lb boy around ;) Keep up the good work, and get your butt back to Endrykas already.

Well done, we all need a student like Ronan! Now hurry up and win over Kavala and stop piddling around with married men.
