Skybound City, Aquamarine Ocean (Arrived) @Gaster


Skybound City was truly a marvel of magic—a civilization suspended above the Aquamarine Ocean, free from any land-bound kingdom and a nation unto itself. Its location and independence made it an ideal center for trade and travel, and certainly for the Circle’s activities. Over the ages, it became a melting pot of cultures, as evidenced by its architecture. Whatever shapes and sizes the buildings came in, most were constructed of white marble that nearly blended in with the clouds that cradled the city.

Valryssa had visited the Skybound City on a few occasions. Each time the city left her with an empty and jealous feeling. Seeing so many of the city’s winged denizens flying freely around them, enjoying the sky to its fullest, made her yearn deeply for her own wings. As she stepped through the Flames and emerged, her first action was to stop and look up at the sky, hand drifting to the stone embedded in the jewelry around her neck.

One little spell, and she could fly higher than them all.

And ruin everything she and so many others had worked for. With a sigh, Valryssa dropped her hands and stepped aside, waiting for her companions to emerge. Once Izuru and Bahram stepped out blinking in the sunlight (it was afternoon in Skybound, rather than evening), she didn’t skip a beat.

“Izuru,” she barked, turning on her heel to face them, “Are you needing any further supplies? Someone—“ she stared pointedly at Bahram, “forgot to bring proper gear for our mission. Would you mind accompanying him to the markets? Meanwhile, I will search out our ice mage guide.”

Bahram frowned, looking down at his bare apparel before looking at Izuru with confusion. “What’s wrong with what I got?”
