Golden City on the Horizon... [Completed]
Character(s): Piers, gatekeeper, someone?
Content: SEARCHING FOR THE NEXT GREAT ADVENTURE!!1
Setting: Niflheim Gate
Time: Hmmm... Let's say afternoon-ish?
Warnings: Old?
Piers checked and doublechecked to make sure he really had locked the door to the cabin this time. He didn't want to come back to snakes monsters on his ship. They'd been hard enough to get rid of the last time, and he'd had help from Felix and Jenna and... whatever that cheeky blonde girl's name had been.
He shouldn't have forgotten that. He could remember Felix, he could remember Jenna, he could remember the scholar who had traveled with them, but he couldn't remember the blonde girl's name. It couldn't have been that long, it was only a century, right? Right?
"Only" rang in his mind. A century was longer than any of his friends had lived-- they weren't Lemurian, they didn't drink the water from the life-giving springs. They aged as normal outsiders did. And in the meantime, Piers had merely changed from a young adult to a grown man (not that it had changed his appearance too much).
But he digressed. What was important was that (once he unlocked it and went back in for the Black Orb, stupid him forgetting his most important possession) Piers locked the ship and went to that golden city in search of his next adventure. The Wise One had sent him beyond Gaia Falls to seek this place, and the wanderlust was rising within him to find out what this new adventure was.
So he set out towards the golden city rising above the trees, taking note of small glowing creatures that seemed more intent on avoiding him than fighting him for the moment, and presently arrived at a large gate of spun silver, laden with pearls and crystals of blue and white and shaped to look like a frozen arch...
