You don’t even wanna know how long it would take to make a map in complete darkness…
“Should be an old <span class="mu-b">DAM</span> at the base of the mountain,” Rezalith nonchalantly adds as if recommending a restaurant, “We’d be wise to start there.”
TT’s eyes light up with the usual curiosity! “There’s a dam nearby? How’d you figure that out, RezRez?”
“I… I found it when I was flying around, of course!” She scoffs with a look of bewilderment on her face! “S-some of us make better use of our time than fiddling with our instruments all day!”
“‘Zat right…” Muses the musician with a wary look in her eyes! “Well in any case it shouldn’t be hard to find… the Falls are pretty popular among scholars, Spinners, and soldiers, y’know.”
Yea, you nod, she mentioned some Skog General beefed it there or something?
“Indeed…” TT nods as she strums a chord on her Striilii! “Forces led by General Hjall’dah of the Frostbiter Clan met General Kiito, a Durher, and his coalition forces there… they say that by the end of the day the falls had run red with blood!”
“Just like home…” Sighs Rezalith as she rests her cheek on her palm!
“Anywho, in the midst of the massacre Hjall’dah was said to have stepped atop a boulder and roared at the top of his lungs: ‘<span class="mu-s">I AM HJALL’DAH! NONE IN ZORAL CAN BEST ME!</span>’” Smiling at her own reenactment, Tzah-Tzie’s expression turns mischievous! “Well Kiito wasn’t having any of that! Striding forward with his famous Slinger in hand, he laughed at the Skog’s boast and answered: ‘Maybe not, but I know something that CAN!’”
A ‘pew-pew’ noise leaves the Spinner’s lips followed by a long, low whistle as her eyes slowly shift to the ground! “He meant the rocks at the bottom of the waterfall, of course!”
You can’t help but smile at that! Yea, you nod, that probably did the trick, huh? TT’s smile droops a bit. “Nope! Hurt him something fierce, but Hjall’dah climbed back up, ripped Kiito’s arms out of their sockets, then had his soldiers slaughter the remaining forces and wear their bones on their armor when they sacked Kiito’s hometown!” She sniffs. “Ate his mate and nine kits, too.”
Wow.
