Evanescent Mettle
"Well, not quite. That's another country."
"Well, not quite. That's another country."
Willow sighs, "This could be a complication." She takes out a map of the world, "Right then, Where are we heading?" She mumbles, mostly to herself.
Masalee points to a cluster of islands southwest of where they are. "I think that's it."
Willow nods, "We need to get a boat then, there's a port a little west from here. How much money do you have?" Willow checks her pockets finding 4 gold pieces, 8 silver and 4 copper.
"I can get money no problem, if you don't mind shady goings on"
Willow smirks, "I don't mind at all," she puts her money back in her pockets. "Shall we start walking then or are you planning to do the shady things here?"
(Can I join?)
(Of course!)
Masalee surreptitiously looks around. "No, not here. Maybe the next town. Actually, let's leave now."
(Imma use Phoenix a criminal mastermind!)
Willow nods, takes one more look at the map and then rolls it up and puts it away. She starts walking by the outskirts of the village to get to the exit, assuming Masalee's followed her.
(Can someone catch me up?)
(Basically Willow and Masalee are trying to skip the country with Masalee's aunt because they're being tracked down by several gangs andpeople from their past, Archia was hired by Nathaniel (dude from Willows past) to try and kill them but they convinced him to let them go if they 'faked their own death' so that happened. It's explained better on the page before if your want to check that out.)
(Sure :D! Also what if Phoenix bumps into them and teams up because people are after her too?)
(Yeah, that can work, they're currently heading to a port to leave so you could meet them on the way or on the boat or where ever really.)
Phoenix looked and saw an empty boat She tried to walk there looking as nonchalant as possible. She reached the dock and was about to untie the boat when she heard steps coming her way.
Masalee follows Willow. Eventually, they find themselves at a port, and see someone who looks about ready to sail off. "Hey! Where are you headed? Are you willing to take passengers?"
“Uhh no passengers I need to go.” Phoenix replies in a deeper voice. She tried not to show her hands were shaking
"C'mon, we can help out, and we can pay," Willow says, moving closer to the boat.
“Uhm I really need to go.” She said with her deep voice. She was glad her hood was drawn so they couldn’t see her face.
"So do we. We won't be any trouble I can promise you that," She says, standing close enough to the boat that she could take a step and be on it.
“But I- fine” she sighed feeling trapped
She smiles, taking a step onto the boat. "I'm Myrla," Willow says, deciding to use a fake name rather than her real one.
With the greatest hesitation, Masalee offered forward the name May. "Where are you headed though?"
“I-uh- just far far away.” She finally sighed. She lowered her hood and showed them her face “I am Phoenix Black, probably heard of me.” She said spreading her arms
(Masalee worked for law enforcement in a big city–would she have heard of Phoenix?)
