Eyes had closed and when they opened they found themselves within the darkness of a room that was broken by only the faintest hint of moonlight. Their surroundings were stark, cell like. Dark walls of poured concrete thick and stable, one window that was high on one wall with no bars just a clear glass that showed the night sky outside. Either it was not yet morning or they had been drugged throughout the whole day to wake again only when night had fallen. Each had been in a separate bed, each had been in their own home, their inn, around a campfire until they woke here. Each woke on a small cot that was low to the ground and made of rough wood with a mattress of feathers barely wide enough for an adult to lay comfortably.
If they pulled up the mattress they would find slats that ran beneath it for support. If they moved the bed itself they would find only floor. Dark laid brick that was put so evenly it seemed impossibly laid.
If they searched for a door they would find none. If they moved the bed over to the window they could but reach the sill and it was by stretching upward in order to even bring their fingers against it. The room was warm, the glass was cool, and they were still dressed in their own clothing. What they had upon their person when they had laid down to sleep was still upon them.
They simply weren’t where they had been when they had laid down their head.
The walls were thick but not soundproof. There were sounds of people snoring in other rooms. A man coughing in one that carried throughout the space. Any attempt to break through the walls would be found to be useless. They were sturdy. Any attempt to conjure was met with a muted feeling within the casters hands. Any attempt to break the window was met with a force about an inch from the glass. It was shielded from anything but a light touch.
Therefore they were left, in the warmth, but in the dark, there within a world that was not where they had been when they’d laid down to sleep.

Physical Description: ———————————————————————————————————————————————————
Nixi is a petite red vulx with a brilliant brown hair and fur. She has emerald green eyes and slightly curly and fluffy brown hair and fur. She stands about five feet tall and three inches. She has two huge fox-like ears and a big bushy white tipped tail. Nixi has a fair body and a sweet aroma. She likes to keep herself clean and is often seen brushing her tail and pruning it from the dirt, leaves, and other things that it does collect.
Nixi has a slender figure, as she usually keeps very active. She keeps a bit of makeup on as a way to imitate the person who taught her common.
Clothes and Equipment: ———————————————————————————————————————————————————
Nixi wears special pendant that was given to her by the woman who taught her common. As such it is a prized possession of hers and she treats it as if it was her own heart.
The special pendant is made of a bronze-like metal and has a sun-like symbol near the bottom. The outer sections are colored like a rainbow, while the inner section is colored to a night sky-like purple. The heart of the sun-like image is a magenta ruby. Nixi wears this and the pendant is much like a big coin, about the size of Nixi’s hand. A simple green string keeps it around her neck.
Nixi clothes herself in a simple white shirt, sparsely decorated with small flower patterns made of scarlet thread. The shirt fits nicely on Nixi, neither too tight, or too loose, and at the end it builds into a peplum. She has a brown leather belt, detailed with a bronze buckle. She has a small green coin purse strapped on her left side, attached to the belt.
Her belt is looped around a pair of brown capri pants. Her capris are marked with yellow flowers made of thread that sparsely decorate the seams of her capris. Nixi doesn’t wear any footwear, she finds them very uncomfortable, because she grew up in a very animalistic vulx family and never really wore shoes before she met a stranger. This stranger was the woman who would teach Nixi the common language and took her in after her family died from an attack. Nixi never saw what had taken the lives of her family, but she’s always assumed that it was a bear.
Nixi carries a shoulder bag, or rather a book bag, in which she carries several herb jars and smaller jars for ointment. She also carries a book to reference herbs and other plants, when she is out in the wild searching for new herbs. She also carries a mortar and pestle, along with a few other tools to help her work as an herbalist.

The petite vulx opens her eyes, looking at the ceiling. She sits up, crossing her legs as she places her hands slightly behind her waist, pressing on the mattress. Her eyelids tense and her pupils dilate as reality comes crashing down. She's not by the campfire anymore. In a panic the vulx searched her surroundings, finding the shoulder bag where the pillow would be. The stage of fright slowly leaves her face as she searches her bag, pulling our a comb. The vulx brings her tail around to her lap and begins brushing it with a stressed complexion. She thoroughly prunes her tail and hair, cleaning it from any dirt and loose leaves that came from her previous be by a tree.
She was travelling the world looking to increase her knowledge of herbs and to learn what she can so she grow in her craft. She's been compiling a book of herbs and has hence onward been studying their traits and qualities. Her current goal: expand her knowledge of herbology and to help those she can.
Nixi stares at the walls, pouting, in this darkness she couldn't see much, other than the four walls and window. She sniffed the air, it was stuffy, but certainly not the worst thing she's smelled. With no perceivable way out she sits on the bed, stress brushing her fluffy tail.

Remember, you're more than just a farm girl, kid.
Dirk? What the-
She gasped and sat straight up.
It took a few seconds to realize she was no longer in the inn, but had woken up somewhere else. Her immediate thought was to search for her longsword, but all she had on her was her beige cotton pajamas and a small dagger.
"Dirk!" She yelped. Her flight or fright response brought her straight up out of the bed with little hesitation. She immediately backed towards a corner and looked for the door, ready to direct the dagger stance towards it. And then she realized there was none.
Her breathing steadied, her toes curled against the stone floor and the color returned to her knuckles. She leered up defiantly towards the window. I'm no damsel in distress. She focused. Her guardian would smash through that window with ease, any second now.
...
Any second now.
...
She started to notice that the room was surprisingly warm, and that she had at least been in a bed. There were people snoring in other rooms. She couldn't get out, her powers were muted, and-
"Oh crap I'm a damsel in distress."

She opened her eyes to darkness, brain foggy with a sense of confusion and sleepiness. Where had the light of her hearth gone; that cheerful golden hue that danced against her walls? Her bed was different too... She wasn't at home, was she? The witch sat up and looked around, squinting as panic began to set in. "What th' feck?" Lyra rolled off the bed and yanked the blanket around her, not because she was cold but because she slept in the buff and she wore not a stitch at that moment in time.
Her heart raced. How did she get there? Why was she there? Oh, Gods, what if they....? No, they hadn't, she would have known if they had violated her. "Hello?!" she called out when she could not locate the door. She hit the wall.
This had to be some kind of a dream, she thought. Yeah... a bizarre dream where she was trapped somewhere she had yet to identify, listening to the sounds of other people sleeping. What do I do, what do I do, what do I do? She repeated this mantra in her head several times before sinking to the floor and rocking to and fro.

Nixi's ears perk up as she heard a call for a name. She couldn't quite catch what was said, but by tone alone it was most certainly a name. The vulx stands up and walks closer to a wall, that was in the direction of the sound. She couldn't hear much else, just that one call and the countless snoring of others.
She opens her mouth, not a sound comes out. Nixi was unsure of what to do... should she call out to that nameless voice, should she not? She didn't quite know the answer. What would Mrs. Fermalion do? She would've done what she could to help them... Nixi inhales deeply before calling out in a loud voice, "ARE YOU OKAY?!"

The walls remained unchanged, their situation not any less pleasant. Caster sat on the edge of his own bed clothed in dark attire his pants and vests black both adorned with black buttons. His shirt beneath had been pressed and starched as well as it was able the white sleeves hitting at his wrist cinched there so they did not bother his hands as he worked. Not that he could work here. He might have cried out at first to others, but he heard nothing but them sleeping. There had to be times of wakefulness in which they might have attempted to answer or reply but they had long since passed. Therefore he waited, sitting in his room unaware of what this day might bring, or night as it were if he took a good look up to the window that was above him. The moon shone through breaking some of the darkness. It shimmered on hair as black as coal its gleam catching his blue eyes making them bright. Like this he waited. Mina and Nixi The cries of Mina had been heard though Nixi through the wall. So had her shouting in return. The two could hear one another and perhaps they were next to one another but it was hard to tell. There were others trapped there, surely, but they had not woken up at their calls their gentle snores continuing on. Castor and Lyra Castor had heard her cursing, then her shouting, both of which made him smile to hear, he placed a hand on the wall. He’d been waiting for someone that could hear him in return, was it her?
“Can you hear me?” His voice was soft, he’d not shouted, for he did not think it would be necessary for her to hear his voice.
Through what might have been a shared wall Lyra could hear his voice, the soft timber breaking through. |

She slid down to her butt and ran her fingers through her mussed hair, trying to figure out still if it was a dream or reality that she was trapped in a dark room with no doors. How had this happened? Her head tilted forward and she felt fear gripping her. But then suddenly, there was a voice.
"Hello?" she hissed out, putting her ear to the wall. "Who are you?! Where are we? What the feck?" She rattled questions off. What else was she supposed to say or do? She pressed her hands to the wall as if touching that would bring her, a hermit, closer to another being.

It wasn't the voice she was expecting to hear but she was grateful for it anyways.
Though in truth Mina had to actually think about the question. Was she ok? If she had been brought here against her will, what else could have been done to her...?
Mina rolled her shoulders. She pulled up her shirt and checked her abdomen. She looked along the length of her arms. She waved her face in front of her hands.
Where was Luftballoon?
She decided to yell back. "Well, I'm here against my will but it looks like all my fingers and toes are still in place. How about you?!" She wasn't even sure if she could do anything even if her new friend was in trouble. But if nothing else maybe she could warn her of something. Perhaps it was unwise to assume the new voice was even a friendly, but then again Mina was still rather young for a fighter.
Meanwhile she decided to search through and underneath her bed, to try to find any clues or, unlikely as it might seem, any additional possessions that could have been brought along with her.

Nixi smiles, hearing the comment about the fingers and toes. She yells back, placing her hand around her mouth as if it would make her louder. "I still got my tail and large ears! I was brushing until I heard you call some name!"
She smiles, finally some comfort in this prison, whatever it may be. Nixi sighs, sitting back down on her bread and begins to brush her hair. There isn't too much to do in here, so she might as well keep appearances.
Being stuck here.... did bring its own questions... of all people why her? She is some vulx people would pass by on the street, an herbalist trying to find her craft. Nixi leans against the wall. She did not know the answer, although she could have been some unfortunate bystander caught in a trap, like a fly in a spider web. Nixi sighs and after staring at the wall for a few seconds, she pulls it with what force she can across the room, to the wall nearest to the voice. After pushing it against the wall, she plops back onto the bed and leans her head against the wall.

He’d stood when she’d answered him. It was a good thing in his opinion for it meant that she could hear him. Then she started rattling off questions as if there was nothing more in the world she would like to have done but to have them answered. Frankly he would have done so but he only had the answer to one. “My name is Castor,” he replied leaning his shoulders against the wall that was between them, or where he thought he heard her, “As for where we are I cannot tell. I’ve peered through the window in hopes of seeing the stars but there is nothing but the moon as far as I can tell. It’s brightness seems amplified here as if it is magnified through the glass itself. Enough so I cannot see what is around it.” “As for your last question I have no good answer to that either. Are you alright?” Lyra
Where her hands touched she would feel a warmth beneath the right. The left was just as cool as the rest of the wall. If she moved her left hand about or closer to her right she would feel the warmth there. Spreading them across she would find it was a section that was spread over about eighteen inches with a spot in the center that was not warm, as if there was a space between it. Mina
Everything was intact upon her. Nothing missing or gained than what she had gone to bed with. When she spread her hands before her face her vision was clear. Beneath her bed there was nothing of note except a spider web in the very corner. One very small black spider peering back at her with all eight eyes before swiftly turning about and scuttling up the wall and towards the window. It would slip beneath the pane not touched by the magic upon it. About that time she would hear a loud screeching sound, as if wood was being dragged. Nixi
The bed was not heavy but made a screeching sound when it was pulled across the room and settled against the wall. Beneath it if she looked back was nothing. |

"I am Lyra..." she said softly, but not too softly. She listened to the rest of what she had to say and he might hear the sigh of resignation while he described what he was seeing. It was the same thing she saw. Her fingers continued to move along the wall until she felt something, and she moved to examine it. When asked if she was okay, she said, "I am alright, but I am frightened." It was an honest answer and she wasn't ashamed to admit that she was.
She blinked when she discovered the spot and said, "See if you can touch the cold spot and the warm spot." Lyra described where it was in approximation and about how big the spot was. "This is strange."

"Tail, and ears." Mina said to herself with a nod.
"Stay calm! I'm gonna check something!"
It then occurred to her that yelling was probably not the best decision. But it's not like there were any guards around, right?
She decided she needed to see what was out that window. She would attempt to flip over her cot and place it against the wall just before the window, vertically and at an angle. Then, if she felt it could support her weight, she'd attempt to climb up it to see if she could reach up high enough to look out the window.
Perhaps she wouldn't have enough time to execute her plan before being shocked by the sudden noise. This would cause her to drop down and immediately retreat from her cot. She'd back up towards a corner, dagger drawn, eyes on the window and the rest of the room.
Oh my heart can't take this.

Nixi sighs looking back at where the bed used to be. She irked when she heard the sound, but now that she finished moving it she sat on it. She takes our her brush and begins pruning her tail. She heard her fellow... stranger say that they were going to check something. She inspects her tail some more and after a moment of silence she calls back to the stranger, "Did you find what you're looking for?"
Nixi inspects her tail further and decides its been cleaned enough. She lies back down on the bed and stares at the window. Her face pouts in boredom, if there was more light, she could have had the chance to read through her book of herbs and further memorize them, but with this level of light, she couldn't see anything. If she had brought a match or a flint that could have been useful... WOOD! The bed frame was made of wood! The Vulx jumps up excitedly and begins to examine the cot for any splinters, if she was luck she could take these slats and make a fire, some light for her to read in.

“If I am being honest I would call myself the same,” he replied to her being frightened something kind in his voice at the very thought of it. He was not ashamed of the realization for it meant that he was very much still alive and if he was then perhaps he could fix that which lay before him. When she spoke of the wall he would echo her, “The warm and cold spots?” He turned face in order to put his hands upon the wall. The instant that he did so they felt cold, but they were positioned next to one another. He spread them apart until he found what she referred to, “I feel a warm place but it is where my shoulder blades were a minute ago when I leaned against the wall.” His brows furrowed at the contact of it, “It’s a bit short of a meters high on my side, about 50 centimeters wide I would say, is it the same on your side?” Lyra Upon the side that Lyra stood the instant that Castor turned face and his hands touched the wall there would be an imprint upon it. Where her hands were so did his appear, as if there was an outline in which hers sank into it. The wall seemed almost malleable to her touch. As if it were made of clay, and should she have pushed upon it she would find it gave way to her touch now. Mina Mina was able to easily flip up the cot. It made a small thud when it did so. After she climbed up the little bit of the window that she was able to peer at before she came back down had shown her only the moon. The same rather large reflection that provided enough light to see by if it was a clear night and it was full. When she jumped down so quickly so did the cot slip down the wall leaving another thud.
Pressed up against the corner of the wall where she placed her hands began to feel warm beneath her fingers. Just a slight enough difference to be noticeable from the warmth of her fingers alone. Nixi After the other woman said she was going to check something she would not hear the thud of her bed as she had risen up to move her own. She heard a second thud, something wooden landing on the floor, and the scrambling sound of something in the corner that was nearest her head now that she’d moved the bed.
The bed frame that she inspected she would find no visible splinters but if she raised the cot she would notice the slats were but laid in place. They could be picked up and moved from the frame independently. |

“I am glad to know that I am not the only one scared,” she said honestly, her voice soft. She concentrated on the wall at that point when he asked her a question about where the spots were for her. “About the same,” she said and pressed her fingers harder into the pliant part of the wall. Then she flattened her hand against it and felt his hand. With a soft gasp, she said, “I think I can feel where your hand is at. Is that it?” It had to be, and it was so strange to be able to feel. “I think we may be able to break the wall right here… maybe… I don’t have a weapon on me.” No, because she was used to living alone and being able to do whatever it is she did alone. She was a witch, after all.
With a breath, she attempted to push her hand through the wall, hoping to break through the material.

"... I found the moon out the window. And that's about it. That weird noises scared the crap out of me." She slowly lowered her dagger again. Her countenance fell and her head banged against the back wall.
It was then that she noticed that there was warmth coming from the section of wall her fingers were against.
"Hey, there is something warm inside the walls. Maybe to heat the room or... anti-magic?"
It was a long shot, but maybe what she felt was an energy source muting her powers. If she could get to it and turn it off, maybe then she could summon her guardian spirit and escape. Of course, this was wishful thinking. Most likely there was a fire on the other side. She suddenly imagined herself on the other end of a castle wall, with a fireplace that just happened to be on the opposite end.
Still, it couldn't hurt to investigate the only clue she had, so she placed her hands on the warmth and tried to see how far it extended, and if there were any cracks or weak spots in the wall.
"My name is Mina by the way!"

Age: 15
Physical Description: ———————————————————————————————————————————————————
Nixi is a petite red vulx with a brilliant brown hair and fur. She has emerald green eyes and slightly curly and fluffy brown hair and fur. She stands about five feet tall and three inches. She has two huge fox-like ears and a big bushy white tipped tail. Nixi has a fair body and a sweet aroma. She likes to keep herself clean and is often seen brushing her tail and pruning it from the dirt, leaves, and other things that it does collect.
Nixi has a slender figure, as she usually keeps very active. She keeps a bit of makeup on as a way to imitate the person who taught her common.
Clothes and Equipment: ———————————————————————————————————————————————————
Nixi wears special pendant that was given to her by the woman who taught her common. As such it is a prized possession of hers and she treats it as if it was her own heart.
The special pendant is made of a bronze-like metal and has a sun-like symbol near the bottom. The outer sections are colored like a rainbow, while the inner section is colored to a night sky-like purple. The heart of the sun-like image is a magenta ruby. Nixi wears this and the pendant is much like a big coin, about the size of Nixi’s hand. A simple green string keeps it around her neck.
Nixi clothes herself in a simple white shirt, sparsely decorated with small flower patterns made of scarlet thread. The shirt fits nicely on Nixi, neither too tight, or too loose, and at the end it builds into a peplum. She has a brown leather belt, detailed with a bronze buckle. She has a small green coin purse strapped on her left side, attached to the belt.
Her belt is looped around a pair of brown capri pants. Her capris are marked with yellow flowers made of thread that sparsely decorate the seams of her capris. Nixi doesn’t wear any footwear, she finds them very uncomfortable, because she grew up in a very animalistic vulx family and never really wore shoes before she met a stranger. This stranger was the woman who would teach Nixi the common language and took her in after her family died from an attack. Nixi never saw what had taken the lives of her family, but she’s always assumed that it was a bear.
Nixi carries a shoulder bag, or rather a book bag, in which she carries several herb jars and smaller jars for ointment. She also carries a book to reference herbs and other plants, when she is out in the wild searching for new herbs. She also carries a mortar and pestle, along with a few other tools to help her work as an herbalist.

Nixi sighs finding no discernible splinters. She was thinking of making a small campfire, but maybe that was the best idea after all.She listens to her neighbor talk about the noises. Nixi comments, "Noises? That was prolly me just sliding my cot over."
"Something warm?" Nixi presses her hands against the wall, trying to see what her neighbor meant.
"I'm Nixi Luma Fermalion! Herbalist extraordinaire! Nice to meet you Mina!~"

He had admitted his worry because he felt it may have comforted her, or at the very least have made him seem more human in her eyes, which he was to start. The few things that they had in common he wanted to build upon as she was the first voice that he’d heard since he’d been in there. A few days of waiting on another to appear had about driven him mad. “About, yes,” he answered in reply to where his hand was located. It had been upon the wall where he’d described, “Is yours on the other side?” He needn’t wait for an answer for the same phenomenon that was happening on her side was happening on his, “The wall is…” He had no words for it quite yet. Lyra As she pushed into the walls so did it give way. Until she found that her hand was halfway through. It melted like butter making way for her moving aside and leaving no evidence that the wall was once more solid other than the hole that was the size of her palms and fingers spread out. It would be halfway through that she would connect with skin. Her fingers would find themselves intertwined through another. There they stood both with their hands halfway through what was a solid wall of at least thirty centimeters wide two holes now formed where both of their hands met. Mina
Mina had found a warmth behind the stone, but it disappeared the moment after when Nixi questioned it. The spot was cold, but as she kept moving her hands about attempting to find a warm spot within it she would find that the warm spot had moved to another location, two in fact, about the width and height of her own palms. It was settled about shoulder-width apart as well if she was judging by the shoulders of a woman. Nixi When she had been laying her back had but touched the wall, in a very peculiar position. When she rose and turned about putting her hand against it there was no warmth. Leaving them on there for a moment would reveal a fleeting warmth. Mini and NixiSpoiler Options – (These will have to be done by both characters in order to occur) Leave Hands in the warm spot:
There would be an indention on both sides. In the moment that they met and they left them there would be an imprint of their own hand in what had appeared to be solid stone. Then either: Push Harder:
The imprint would go deeper, it was like clay in their hands, warm but not wet but not quite solid either as it pushed leaving no signs upon the outside that there had been more to the wall, not buckling in other places. As they moved forward they would find that they were suddenly touching one another. Hands meeting within the center, palms flat against one another, and two holes in the wall where their forearms were pushed through. The wall itself was over thirty centimeters deep and the holes were just wider than their hands.
Pull Away:
The imprints would disappear leaving naught but the wall again. (If you choose to put hands back on the wall go to spoiler: Push Harder) |

"Nice to meet you too! I'm a mercenary... well, amateur. Light escort, supplementing patrols in poor city districts... Almost got eaten by a dragon once." Mina smiled sheepishly at no one.
She could feel the warm spots. They seemed to be... moving. There was no way this could happen with normal heat sources against normal stone walls. This had to be a form of magic. She was certain this was what was muting her powers.
Moreover, the room was totally sealed, but she must have been brought in there someway. Yes, perhaps she had been shoved through the window, but it suddenly occurred to her that a hidden trap door was much more likely. She figured she should start pushing against sections of wall, searching for any sort of weakness. And the section of wall hiding the warmth seemed to be as good a spot to check as any.
"Hey, I think this wall is hollow. I'm gonna try to push the stone where the warm spot is. If you feel a warm spot maybe you can try the same thing." Nixi wasn't human. Maybe she had super strength? Did cat people have super strength? Was she even a cat person? Lots of things have tails. Maybe she was an elephant person.
In any case, she pushed against the wall as hard as she could and encouraged her ally to do the same, inadvertently doing exactly what they were supposed to do for totally wrong reasons.

Nixi thinks back on her name, Nixi-Luma-Fermalion.... it is such a special name. The one who gave her pendant to her gave her that name and taught her so much. She taught Nixi to read, to speak, and most importantly how to be a kind person.
Being stuck in this room is most certainly an inconvenience... her trade would end here. Nixi looks at the wall with a resolve, what was this warmth her neighbor mentioned?
Nixi smiles. She is feeling the wall, till she feels the warmth. She giggles, raising one hand to her mouth, when she hears the comment about the dragon. Nixi leans closer to the wall, hearing Mina's question. Press on the wall? What was this some sort of hidden button? Nixi smiles and presses on the warm spot as requested not knowing what it might do.
