And here they stood on the Sea of Dreams at sunset, the heat beginning to fade from the air though the sands still radiated beneath their feet. Hadama drew in a slow breath through his nose, though a mask of heavy linen passed over the lower half of his face. His hair was pulled back tightly in a braid and for once he wore a tight-fighting navy blue shirt with long sleeves and gloves over his hands to reduce the amount of skin showing. The shallow lake that had once stretched over the salt flats from the recent Flowerbirth rain was already vanishing beneath the surface, leaving a series of broad ponds only inches deep to reflect the fiery sky above. It was a calmer illusion of the Climb for the moment, though as the light faded those shrinking mirrors would reflect the stars above in a shadow of the Eyes of Vi instead.
And there were currently the flowers that grew in swatches across the desert, drinking greedily of the rare moisture to bloom in shades of shimmering purple and black. Insects buzzed around them, flickers of shadow drawn to the Void and a danger to the smaller life that hid beneath the desert's surface, though they would only be an inconvenience to the three who had gathered.
It was the fragrance of the flowers that was of far greater danger, and Hadama looked out over the beautiful, deadly garden with a shadow of a frown between his brows. "Be careful," he cautioned his volunteers. "If you think you have inhaled some of the fragrance, retreat until your head has cleared."
This is a PQ to push back the Void from Hak Etme for Hadama's quest! Let's get to work!
Round 1: Ideas for how to approach the task and destroy the flowers without getting caught in their fragrance?
1. Hadama
2. Nova
3. Maea
Void Lotus (uncommon): Once a symbol of purity and enlightenment, the Void Lotus has been tainted by the void. Its petals, once pristine white, now shimmer with ominous shades of deep purple and black. The serene fragrance has transformed into a haunting scent that induces a sense of unease. Those who linger too close risk being drawn into a nightmarish dreamscape.
