chapter # 39:3
39 Zal opened the Paths outside First-Hold and the group stepped in (Zal/Nighmare, Eranon/Cat, Durgaz/skeletal worg), this was to travel from First-Hold to Baden's Bluff. It would take some 6-10 hours estimated. the Paths continue to become perilous, not deadly - just similar to a dangerous pass on a mountain that's the best way to travel) They all heard the strange whispers from the nightmares of the "Sending" which was becoming much more audible. It felt as though the things in this void "Gray Realm" were starting to become aware of them much more... They saw two small points of "void" (like a star inverted) in the distance and assumed it to be the direction of Baden's Bluff. They also saw another MASSIVE void point that seemed to blow their hair and such sucking toward it, but made no sound. But as Eranon saw the bigger point, it seemed to open like a massive door revealing the silhouette of Izrador that seemed to be looking... soon the creepy sounds became feelings more as it felt like someone/thing was brushing past them while walking the paths. (note - I found/played a COOL creepy whisper track that we found looped, much like the Heart-Beat in Vrolk's spire, great stuff!) Eranon had some problems as he became increasingly paranoid and confused in the dark void, from looking at the Shadow and gazing off the Paths... Durgaz had a little trouble with seeing/contacting the people/things within the Gray (Shadow) Realms, but little was known for what... Zal had difficulties as his mind strayed from the Paths figuratively and literally! Failing concentration checks to keep the Path's moving toward the Bluff. He became "lost" and could only hear Durgaz/Eranon but not see them. They however could see him in the void, seemingly 50-100 yards in the distant north-east on a path alone while the path they were on began to turn to black crumbling sod. Slowly counting down time before they might drop into the void! Eranon realized their potential location as it rushed beneath them as the Salt Mines of Aarl (just outside the Bluff) and believed Zal to be somewhere 100-200 miles out over the Pelluria split from them already!! They yelled for Zal, even shooting arrows and casting a spell-like ability (flare) which felt to Eranon as if an Astrerax had drained him by force! When Eranon cast Flare, the figure in the door head moved around as if tracking the magic, but hopefully not yet seeing the caster... Eranon thought he wasn't seen (hidden in "darkness). Durgaz (having yelled for "the Sarcosan" with no result, telling him to jump...) took fate into his own hand and yelled "Jump Elf!". Eranon, soon after dove off the Paths as well. Zal looking down at the murky waters, decided to jump off the Paths (ending the spell) and assumed his Nighmare would catch him before hitting the waters.
