Mineas Well Revisited
Who: Felix and anyone on the expedition
What: Exploring Mineas Well
When: November 17th-18th
Where: Mineas Well
Rating: PG
After days of walking in the dense woods, the group eventually came across a slightly grown over but clear path leading through the trees, courtesy of marked circles on the towering trees all around them. Many of the trees seems filled with some kind of strange fruit, though they seem rather grey and unappetizing to look at, and the wizard leading the group only stares at them with an frown. Those who have been here may before may recall these were once glowing tubular creatures that came alive at night. But now they seem dead, or at least dormant. Early after setting out this day, they come across a large hand-made gate, absent of any fence to connect to it, sitting just slightly ajar in the middle of the path. A sign to one side reads "PRIVATE PROPERTY: To all uninvited guests:
please ring the bell to speak to a messenger. Thank you." A cord extending from the branches above seems to indicate it leads to such a bell. After a moment of consideration, Felix pulls it, and it rings softly in the quiet. After a few long beats, nothing at all happens. Sighing, Felix pushed past the gate with a slight shove, and towards the clearing on the other side...
...and the enormous tree on the other side, many hundreds of feet tall, with several levels of tree house built into the different sections of it's branches. Unlike last time, it seems a bit to dim here. Too quiet.

However, her big sister's voice is enough to shake her out of it. She starts slightly, but tries to act nonchalant.
"It might not say much. They don't near the castle."

"You met her, didn't you? The woman who lived here."

Dairine shakes her head, still staring at the bed. "I was planning to, but..." Dairine turns away from Nita, not wanting any potential emotions to be obvious. It doesn't help much though, as a layer of guilt seeps into her voice. "But then the person who wanted to go with me left the castle and... Well, it never happened."

"That's too bad." She says finally, her own tone somber. "From the look of this place, she must have been something else."
