@Ahnnie @Wicked Basket The day was bright and sunny in the northern parts of Serendipity. A slight but gentle breeze blew through Dilwen's hair, their blue and purple locks complete with streaks of white that never ceased to amaze her adopted parents. The storm mage healer gathered what she needed for the quest ahead in her room at home, picking up her orb implement, sword and some bandages to stuff into her pack that was sitting on the bed. Brushing back a stray piece of hair, Dilwen nodded to herself with confidence. She was all ready to set off. Well, minus her companions that is. Gen and Noelle would be accompanying her on this retrieval mission as she most definitely was not going alone. Even though the ruins of the fortress they were to go to was likely abandoned, it was better to be safe than sorry.
The Elementalists' Guild had tasked three of its members to go find and bring back some unknown object of power. What this object was exactly, they didn't know. Only that through the guild's magical resources, they had detected a strong energy output emanating from somewhere inside that old fortress. An energy output which was most definitely elemental in nature. Something like that must not be left lying around, for who knew what trouble it could cause? What sort of nasties would get their grubby hands on it and use for their own devious purposes? Dilwen fully agreed with the guild's decision to go get this magical artifact and she'd offered up her voluntary services to help with this. While the mission would pay well which while that was also enticing, it was not the main reason Dilwen chose to go.
There was also the fact that the guild, while they could detect the energy, could not pinpoint the exact whereabouts of this mysterious item. Only that it was there in those ruins somewhere. Going out the door of her home Dilwen walked down the streets of Darken Vei, nodding and waving to those who passed by her in a friendly gesture. She was to meet her companions at the guild HQ entrance outside its doors. The walk was uneventful, for the storm mage healer soon arrived there and saw her fellow guild members waiting by the front of the building with its two massive quartz crystal pillars.
Dilwen smiled at them and said, "All set?"
