Lord Tidas, ShineBright and one more, return to the old Holt to retrieve those who had survived the attack. It is still unclear who they are......

((OoC: opened this thread to avoid confusion in the 'unfamiliar waters' thread.))

Kimu, Shinebright, Lord Tidas and One-Wing leave the injured and several others to the safety of the small island and return to the mainland of the old holt in search of survivors. It takes them several days to make the trip with current and newborn calf leading the way.

Kimu, stepping on land last after Lord Tidas and Shinebright, had quivering knees and a rapidly beating heart. Panic had set in suddenly, but she fought to not show it - not wanting the other two to stop.

The reality was sinking in that she might actually find the dead. She thought before that Skorva, her daughter was safe, but now...finding anyone dead was not prepared. She thinks a moment, searching for her courage as the nerves that have been tangled up in her gut at last purged from her lips - spilling onto the ground.

Wiping her mouth and spitting, she shook it off and joined Tidas and Shinebright in finding any that might have been able to survive the evil Troll attack.

((Okay, I posted in the Open waters thread and now this one for Kimu. Will see if I can post with Skorva in the thread where she is tonight, I hope so, but promise nothing. Keep hanging with me. I am making time))

Tidas walking a few feet ahead of the others scanned the coastline in all directions searching for any sign of life. His mind began to wander back to just a little over a week ago. Colored tents and decorations had been placed in different spots along the beach, fire pits had been dug in the sand ready for the nighttime merrymaking. Tables of food had been placed in the center of the tents with bounty from land, sea and air. What had began as a celebration ended up in a surprise attack from mountain trolls thought to be long gone deep within the mountains that surrounded the collapsed towers. Loved ones, family and friends had been torn from each other, captured taken away never to be seen again or worse dead. Most of the tents had been destroyed, by flames from the fires, or ripped to threads by troll weapons.

As Tidas and his small group of rescuers walked closer to the remains of one of the tents left standing, Tidas leaned over to pull something half burried in the sand. Shaking off the sand and pieces of torn fabric Tidas had found his coral shaped headband that he wore during celebrations. Placing it on his head he closed his eyes and sent out an open send to all that could possibly receive it. **My people we have returned for you. Is there anyone that is in need of help, anyone near enough to meet us on the beach?** Moments of silence passes so Tidas sends again. **Is anyone out there?**

Tidas turns to meet eyes with Shinebright and Kimu. "I hope we haven't waited too long. Could it be too late for us to find any survivors?"

Hearing Tidas's sending, urgent and nearly desperate, Kimu looks far ahead summoning a few birds. HEr magic conveys her intentions to seek out any Elf in the forest to lead them back to Kimu or else to circle in the sky where that elf is if they can't move.

The three birds that respond by choice do as asked flying off in three directions across the Holt spreading chatter seeking out living elves. One bird flew far away to the Two towers not finding anyone there. This same bird flew low to seek tracks while the other two searched the trees knowing the Elves like to hind in them. The fist bird found some tracks leading freshly with troll tracks into what seem to look like no place.

The three birds returned conveying what they learned. Kimu, stern and determined looking suddenly had hope. She let the birds go took a deep breath and gave a sigh. "We should head deeper into the forest. There might be a hiding place one of the birds thinks it spotted." Kimu shares with Tidas and Shinebright.

"It could be something or nothing, but even a trace would be nice to lead us to anyone still alive...right Lord Tidas?" Kimu asked. Her eyes looking as if she would go even if ordered not to. She still has no idea if Skorva, her daughter is alive or not. Kimu, ever since accepting Tidas as her leader, has never gone against any of his orders, but there had never been a Troll attack to separate her and Skorva since Skorva was kidnapped as a kit and Kimu had promised her that would not happen again. Kimu feels beside herself with grief. It's why she refuses to send.

Her feelings of fear and dread would flow overwhelmingly into any send she shares. Kimu wants her Chieftain focused, not distracted my fear. She already sees his doubt there will be anyone alive on his features. She feels her heart breaking but decides she must go on to know one way or the other and to help out with any that could be alive.

"Kimu, I would say that going deeper into the forest to find survivors is a good idea. There isn't anything here that looks promising. If any survived I'm sure fleeing to the safety of familiar woods would have been the better choice." Feeling a sudden chill Tidas pulls his cloak tighter around his shoulders and pulls the hood over his head.

A short time later after pulling the boats from the waters edge and hiding them from any trolls that may return to finish scavagging for weapons, trinkets and food that was left from the celebration, Tidas and the small group are ready to enter the forest with such sadness, dread and little reason to hold onto any hope of finding survivors.

Before entering the forest Tidas turns facing both Shinebright and Kimu as One-Wing holds on tightly to Tidas shoulder. "I fear for my son Ackqueous and some of the others that live most of their lives beneath the waves. They couldn't possibly survive on land. If they had been dragged from the water I'm sure it was to their death. Surely I would have sensed his passing."

Kimu fought tears again. "We will do all we can High Ones willing to find them, Have hope Lord Tidas. Or else, I will hold to hope enough for us till we know for sure." Grandmother, Kimu's cat bond had been in the foliage of the shore in look out for Kimu, leaping out glomping her to the sand pawing and licking her face.

"AKK! HEHEHE! Grandmother! You live! My eyes! HEHEHE They see with joy, now let me to my feet fanged one!" Kimu said as she fought to rise to stand. Dusting herself off she noted the scent of Skorva and Claytoucher on her cat bond. "I scent my cub and her bond on GrandMother's fur, no way to know if they still breath though." She said walking beside her bond cat happy to find at least one alive still.

Kimu's eyes sharp seeking any trace of recent limb brake or footprints or anything to give hint of life as they trek into the woods. Skorva sends out to her kitling, Skorva, hoping for a reply as they near where the three birds are circling letting Skorva, Shinebright and Tladas along with his finned preserver the way to head.

Holding back any further sign of sadness, Tidas is overjoyed that Kimu was able to find at least one survivor. It gave him enough hope to keep going. They had to be survivors somewhere. He knew that some had survived at least long enough to send for help. If only he had responded sooner maybe things wouldn't seem so grim. As a leader sometimes you had to make tough decesions that affect others. He couldn't jeopardize the safety of those wounded in the boats. Surely his people understood. He wished some of the others would have returned with him to find survivors but he didn't blame them. It would have been way too much on the wounded and besides some needed to stay behind and protect them.

So many scents, some familiar, some new mingled together, it made it difficult for the search party to determine which way some of their people could have went fleeing or by force. The scent of troll was very overpowering as they walked deeper into the forest. Holding his hand out to stop everyone. "Do you smell that? Troll scent is very strong here, recent too. It's not even been a day since troll(s) have been here. One-Wing go ahead of us and check for any sign of an ambush and be as quiet as a treewee, we don't want to go walking into anything not knowing about it. If we get ourselves in trouble or worse captured our mission will be in vain.

One-Wing jumped from Tidas shoulder and onto the nearest tree branch and then to the next until it vanished out of sight. Tidas thought to himself 'That's my little Treewee.'

Kimu stilled her bond waiting per the order to hold by Tidas. Kimu looked over to the sky. they were close to where the three birds are still circling taking turns as they are small tropical birds so not to attrackt unwanted attention to them. Kimu petter Grandmother, her cat bond, old as she was to sooth her. "Grandmother is my kit still alive?" She whispered, not really expecting an answer. The cat nudged Kimu purring contently.

One-Wing had been gone too long and that worried Tidas. The preserver should have returned with news by now. Tidas was their leader and he had to be strong for the others and did not want to worry them. He thought to himself. 'One-Wing would be back he just knew it. The two had been together a very long time and One-Wing had never failed on any mission. The only thing that could have distracted the preserver would be if survivors had been found. Maybe One-Wing was wrapstuffing someone or something.'

"We've waited long enough for the preserver to return. We must continue without news from One-Wing." As the three rescuers make their way deeper into the forest they pause as the scent of both troll and elf becomes stronger again. This time the scent of elf was stronger meaning only one thing. Tidas sends. **Is there anyone out there that can hear me. It's Tidas, Kimu and Shinebright. We have returned to help anyone that has survived. If your injured and too weak to answer, please find it in yourself to reply.**

Kimu sent to her daughter again after Tidas's sending. She tightened her finds over her weapon and chewed st her lower lip thoughtless about it. ~**Daughter...Are you safe? Are others with you? We scent Trolls and Elves and I even smell Claytoucher and Odd-thing about. They with you too? Where are you? Please respond.**~ Kimu locksent to Skorva. Some time passed, moments really and a weak sending replied.

"My Chieftain! Skorva is near, but she has an injury to her head and her sending is weak but she is safe. I will share with you and ShineBrite images of those with her and trolls, she swears are good ones looking out for Raven and our young Glider too." Kimu said ready to run to the tree but knows it's not safe to blindly do that, her feline traits kicking in she hunkers down a bit, eyes and ears sharp fallowing what Tidas and Shinebright decide is best.

"Maybe they know where your son is as well, Lord Tidas?" Kimu touched his shoulder then took her hand back. Though she wanted to celebrate, it was no time to do so. The images were too few to find joy in. She wondered if maybe the Waring thieving trolls that invaded took slaves. "Maybe Trolls take slaves. What should we do?"

She waited to see what was Sent to Tidas in response. Maybe sending replies to him were stronger. As well as more informative, possibly.

Tidas didn't even flinch or show any sign of movement from the touch of Kimu. His entire thought process now was that they were survivors hiding out just ahead of them in the thick foliage of the forest. What better place to hide from the trolls. Trolls usually avoided sunshine but were mostly lazy and avoided certain areas of the forest due to its think twisting vines and plants. Trolls wanted a quick clear path. Pulling off the hood of his cloak Tidas suddenly lunged forward disappearing into the darkness ahead of him leaving the others surprised and startled at their leaders quick actions but, Tidas left them very little choice but to follow.

Never seeing Tidas ahead of them they followed his scent and after a short distance they broke through the thick trees and plants to discover a clearing with one of the largest trees they had ever seen. Tidas was just standing there looking as the sounds of growling could be heard from the shadows of the ancient tree.

Kimu flinched in shock at the sudden action by Tidas vanishing into the green. She turned to Shinebright. "Please hurry and ride with me?! We can't let him go alone." Kimu said fearing danger and death, she let her emotions and caution take over. Her instinct in full feline mode. Protect the family were her intentions. Leader included. The tribe are her family, though, not entirely by blood. One arm held behind her to make sure Shinebright was not going to slip from the large feline beast as it leaps and lunges and jumps between the thick tube like branches and thick tropical foliage to the trunk of the large tree. Letting go of Shinebright and sliding from her bond as it lays down, Kimu sniffs the area checking tracks. "Heh, I know only the living and wise attempt to smooth tracks. But the scent of our tribe and the Tower tribe are here and I know also that if trolls are inside with Skorva and our kin, that they are not war-ing ones. It seems this rock...but how dose it move?!" Kimu got out of the way stepping back a good bit to look things over. She was not one for finding hidden triggers or whatever, but she had figured this much out already from sight and smell. She had hoped the ones inside would come out making this a lot more easy. It was just her way. She plopped down beside her cat scritching behind it's ears watching and waiting like a patient feline. Grandmother too, purring and mewling as it waited with Kimu.

Tidas sends for those that are hiding in the great tree to come out. **Weve come far and gone through so much to find you. Please let us help! We need to find all survivors as soon as possible and leave this place. It's become unsafe due to human and troll attacks. If it's not safe please reply to us.**

BIC:::

Shaft fidgeted under Skorva's compliment, the weight of all this hitting her in the moment. She started to feel claustrophobic in the otherwise welcoming and comfy den as all the pieces fell together in her mind. Her Chief was incapacitated and out of sending. Her best friends missing or worse. Her tribe... she dare not even bring thought too. Then of all things she had trusted not one but TWO trolls!
It was too much for her in the moment and though she DID trust everyone in this den she needed air before she hyperventilated.

She walked over to Jewel and grabbed her hand gently speaking low for only her and Whitemoth if he were near enough to hear. "Food should be there though I don't know how much Merle had stashed, wood as well. I will go scout hunt and gather what I can and be back soon. Use the blankets for warmth from the den area @khashee if you'd help get them. Skorva should stay warm the water will sap her heat." She squeezed the maiden's hand unintentionally but not hard. Swallowing "I'll be fine." She said more to herself than the others She stopped at the exit the the tree tops. The back of her hand brushing thoughtfully on the grip of a spear leaning there, it had been/WAS Vaun's. Snatching the spear after a moments hesitation She climbed the stair to the tree top exit with out another word.

Once up in the branches she crouched exhaling trying ti clear her thoughts with the scent of the forest, another deep breath, and another, and another. Then she caught a familiar scent like Merle's! The sea Chief and ...Others? A cat like Skorva's. Then she hear the send like a booming thunder now,

She bounded lower landing on the ground a bit more reckless than she'd been. At the site of the others her eyes rested on @tidas whom she knew the best. "Thank the High Ones... she stayed crouched eyes uncharacteristically tearing. Vaun's spear flat on the ground still in her fisted hand for balance as she kneeled there now, she'd not loose this one from lack of strength.
