[Artifact PRP] The Orphic Wildwoods (Ignatius/Brenley)

[Seiana_ZI]

He did prefer to buck authority, so perhaps this failure to just follow Brenley should have been expected.  

[Seiana_ZI]

Someday, Ignatius would find the portal.  

[Seiana_ZI]

Ignatius was apparently stumped as to how to find the portal, even though Brenley had pointed him straight to it.  

[Seiana_ZI]

Ignatius had found it so quickly last time, but he seemed stumped this time. Where was that portal hiding?  

[Seiana_ZI]

None of the portals he kept reaching into were relevant, unfortunately. Either too dry or too cold, neither of which was right.  

[Seiana_ZI]

That one had been too cold. What about this one, though?

Ignatius reached in and found the pleasant atmosphere of a forest. Aha. There it was! Finally, Ignatius decided to actually join Brenley.

Bren noticed Ignatius first and the monster shortly after that. Great. By the time they got out of here he would be an expert on fighting these things.  

[Seiana_ZI]

Oh, hey, another vine monster.

Thankfully, for once, it seemed their presence only summoned a single one.  

[Smerdle]

Bren laid into it immediately, taking out all of his frustration on... the stones he enchanted. He hoped they stung a whole lot.

Ignatius closed his eyes and focused hard, gathering electricity in both hands before shoving them together and blasting it out. While it pushed him back a bit, Ignatius was overall pleased to find that hit looked much more effective.

Bren moved away for a time, enchanting a small rock bomb that he brought back and tossed in the thing's face. He smiled as it exploded, happy that it was gone without much effort but dreading the incoming spiderwebs.

When he heard the music, Bren kept walking as quickly as he could on the uneven ground. Not stopping.

Now that was more like the duo Ignatius knew. He whooped when the vine monster went down so easily.

"Alright, let's go to those toadstools!" Ignatius ran through the next area like the wind, having a clear idea of where to go by now.

Moving quickly apparently attracted the webs. He held still for a moment then moved on.
