Topic: Enchanted Forest

A beautiful forest of huge trees covered in shelf fungi and flowering vines, the Enchanted Forest is where the good and innocent of the magical world dwell. Thanks to the unicorns that make their homes under the towering branches, it is always spring here, no matter what season it is outside the forest. Even a blizzard would come in as a merely gentle snow that melts once it reaches the lower canopy. Located at the base of the mountain ranges, it is riddled with small caves filled with crystals that glow with a comforting light and lofty splendor. A series of crystal clear streams and rivers flow through, forming small, lily covered ponds with the occasional overgrown ruin sitting around looking charming.

However, the forest is not without it’s mishaps. Drink at the wrong pool or eat the wrong shroom and a character may find themselves falling in love with the nearest living creature or hallucinating they’re the king of England.

Features in the Forest;

Love pond: filled with lily pads with a small, trickling waterfall coming from a small mound of stones, this spring-fed pond makes whoever drinks from it fall in love with the first creature of his or her persuasion that they see, even if it is their horse.

Wishing well: a small, overgrown dry well where once a young pregnant woman wished for water from its barren depths. Her wish was granted, so now whoever comes upon the well and drinks the water—if they can manage to wish it up—has until sundown to make a wish, that will be granted, in one way or another.

Liar Stools: like toad stools, except when one eats them, they have delusions of grandeur until a cure is administered or a year and a day have passed. No, there are no caterpillars with bongs here, sorry.

Crystal Caverns: Little caves branching out from a central one in which glowing, beautiful crystals grow from the floor and walls.

Fountain of Youth: In the center of the main cavern of crystals, which has not been found in over a hundred years. Warning: do not drink oneself into infancy.

Eye Tree Lilac Bush: Under a great tree covered with huge, blinking eyes of all shapes and sizes, a large lilac bush grows. The scent of these flowers are the only cure for Liar Stools.

The Terrific Trio

Jack sat on a stump outside his hut. His cow, Milky-White, gnawed on a clump of grass a few feet away. What he wouldn't give for her to give him and his mother just a little bit of milk to sell at market. But despite the fact that Jack lovingly cared for her every day, Milky-White just wouldn't-or couldn't-produce milk. Jack sighed and rose to his feet, thinking. What about the Wishing Well? People always said that thier wishes came true when they wished at the well. If he wished for his cow to start making milk, then all of his and his mother's problems would be solved! Jack started for the Wishing Well at a fast trot.

#2 Jan 12th, 4:11pm

Dew arrived at the outskirts of the forest. She closed her eyes an breathed in a breath of the crisp morning air, and was able to find out what lay with in the forest. Without paying much attention to the creatures that resided in there that posed no threat to her, she scented out where there was magic and began heading towards the area that seemed to hold the most amount of magic. She didn't pay attention to anything else near this magic though.

The Terrific Trio

Jack stood in front of the well. It was far less impressive than he expected. He was hoping to see a ray of light streaming down on a majesticmonument of the gods. Instead, he saw plain ol' moss-covered rocks. Could this well really grant its visitors wildest dreams? Jack sighed.

"Well, I've come all this way, I may as well..." he said.

#4 Jan 17th, 4:37pm . Edited Jan 17th, 4:39pm

Dew found herself at the outskirts of a clearing that surrounded the sources of magic she sensed. When she looked she saw a boy standing by the well, and she figured that the well was the source of magic, and decided to watch what the boy was going to do. She couldn't help but chuckle when she heard him mumble to himself.

#5 Jan 17th, 4:41pm

The Terrific Trio

With a start, Jack realized that he had no idea how to use the well. What should he do? He scratched his head in puzzlement, thinking. After a moment, he picked up a stone lying nearby and tossed it into the well.

"I wish my cow would produce milk for us." he loudly and clearly said.

#6 Jan 17th, 4:48pm

Dew's eyes grew large, and she couldn't help it. She burst out into laughter and held her stomach, trying to prevent any cramping in her gut, but she knew that it would be pointless.

#7 Jan 17th, 4:53pm

The Terrific Trio

Jack whirled around and saw a girl watching him.

"What's so funny?" he demanded to know.

#8 Jan 17th, 4:55pm

Dew heard his question, but couldn't stop laughing long enough to answer it. She decided that she would just wait until she was done laughing to answer. As her laughter began to subside she looked at the boy who was staring at her and felt another wave of laughter begin to bubble up, though she tried hard to suppress it. Taking in a deep breath and holding it in until she felt herself calming. When she finally got her laughter under control she answered, "You." Then she began laughing again.

#9 Jan 17th, 4:59pm

The Terrific Trio

Jack simply set his jaw and crossed his arms, waiting for the girl to finish laughing.

#10 Jan 17th, 5:06pm

Dew let her laughter finally die, and with a smile on her face she looked at the boy and asked him, "What?"

#11 Jan 17th, 5:08pm

The Terrific Trio

"I came here to make a wish to help me and my mother and my cow. What's so funny about wanting to help my family?"

((Keep in mind Jack wants to be a man now. "But mother, I'm a MAN now"))

#12 Jan 17th, 5:11pm

"So, you came to make a wish and you don't even know how to make that wish?" She asked as she raised an eyebrow at him.

#13 Jan 17th, 5:12pm

The Terrific Trio

"Well-I, uh...I mean-aw, man..." Jack stuttered, scuffing the ground. "No, I was never told how to make a wish. I'm just guessing." he admitted.

#14 Jan 17th, 5:15pm

Dew couldn't help but laugh. She walked into the clearing and smiled even wider as she felt the suns warm rays touch her skin, letting her know that she was alive. "Did you ever ask anyone how to make a wish?" She asked as she walked over to the well and looked down into it.

#15 Jan 17th, 5:21pm

The Terrific Trio

"No. I mean, I don't really know who I'd ask, anyway. Why? Do you know how?" Jack asked as he backed away from the girl, watching as she looked in the well.

#16 Jan 17th, 5:24pm . Edited Jan 17th, 5:25pm

"Maybe." She said with a chesire cat smile upon her face directed at the boy who was backing away from her.

#17 Jan 17th, 5:26pm

The Terrific Trio

"You can't say 'maybe'" Jack smirked. "Either you know or you don't know!"

#18 Jan 17th, 5:30pm

"Maybe I do know, but what if I don't want to tell you?" She knew that she shouldn't be wasting her time her, but it was kinda fun, and she hadn't had fun in such a long time.

#19 Jan 17th, 5:34pm

The Terrific Trio

"Okay, if you won't tell me, then who will?" Jack practically begged. This girl was torturing him.

#20 Jan 17th, 5:46pm

Dew laughed. "Never say never unless you have found the never. Maybe you need to try harder." Dew turned away from the boy with a chuckle and began walking out of the clearing.

#21 Jan 17th, 5:53pm

The Terrific Trio

"Whoa, whoa, wait, what?" Jack spluttered, totally confused. He began following this mysterious girl away from the well.

#22 Jan 17th, 6:03pm

She turned around, while still walking backwards, and smiling at him said, "What?"

#23 Jan 17th, 6:14pm

The Terrific Trio

"Whaddya mean, 'what'? What are you talking about? Start talking something that makes sense!" Jack shouted, clearly flustered by now. He had never met anyone this strange as long as he had lived.

#24 Jan 17th, 6:18pm

Dew raised her eye at the boy who was now following her. "You called out to me, so of course I'm going to wonder what it is that you want my attention for, so it's only natural that I would ask what. I think that you're just confused."

#25 Jan 17th, 6:37pm . Edited Jan 17th, 6:50pm

The Terrific Trio

"I want to know what you know about the wishing well." Jack growled, before letting out a reluctant "please."

#26 Jan 17th, 6:52pm

Dew almost stopped walking, but continued as she chuckled at him. "What's your name?" She asked.

#27 Jan 17th, 7:29pm

The Terrific Trio

"I'm Jack. My mother and I have lived in the Forest pretty much our entire lives." Jack explained, taking a moment to reminisce. "And you are...?"

#28 Jan 17th, 7:36pm

"One should not give away their name so easily, unless they have the power to protect themselves, and from my guess you don't have a lot of power." She said as she danced around and tree and felt the gust of wind wipe through her hair.

Nascha dropped from one of the many trees in the Enchanted Forest, landing on her feet. As had been her fate for the past few years she had only seen her love for a brief moment as the sun rose. Then he had scampered off; it was too dangerous for them to be together otherwise. She looked around and sighed. This was not a fate she wished to have.

She stood up and started walking. A few minutes later she arrived at the love pond and sat down at the edge, just staring across the surface.

#30 Jan 17th, 8:05pm

The Terrific Trio

"All I told you was my name," Jack protested, trying to keep up with the girl. "What's so dangerous about that? And DO you know anything about the well?"

#31 Jan 17th, 8:23pm

Dew chuckled, such a naive person. "It's dangerous because names have power, and you could give a person power over you by revealing your name, and yes, I know about the well."

#32 Jan 17th, 8:28pm

The Terrific Trio

"What do you know about the well? Who made it? Does it really grant wishes? How do I make a wish? How long does it take for the wish to come true?" Jack asked, the speed of his voice accelerating in excitement.

#33 Jan 17th, 8:31pm

Dew sighed to herself, not paying attention she walked out into a clearing, stopping as she saw a young woman sitting by a pond.

((Doing homework, so bye))

#34 Jan 17th, 8:33pm . Edited Jan 17th, 8:42pm

Danielle Thamasa

After staring at the surface of the water for a long time, Nascha sighed and slowly began to stand up. Time seemed to drag by and doing nothing didn't help to speed it up any.

#35 Jan 17th, 8:51pm

The Terrific Trio

Jack noticed the woman by the water's edge just as she began to move. "Hey, who are you?" he asked. "What's your name?"

#36 Jan 17th, 9:03pm

Danielle Thamasa

Nascha started and turned around to see two people behind her. She held up a hand between them and herself, as if putting a barrier up between them and her. "Who are you? How long have you been standing there? What do you want?" she asked, slightly panicked.

#37 Jan 17th, 9:08pm

The Terrific Trio

"We just got here. What's wrong? You seem like something's...bothering you." Jack warily explained, wondering just why she had her hand raised the way she did and why she was so panicky.

#38 Jan 17th, 9:12pm

Danielle Thamasa

"What do you want?" Nascha asked again, keeping her hand up, just in case.

#39 Jan 17th, 9:13pm

The Terrific Trio

"I just, uh...saw you there and wanted to introduce myself." He said. After a moment, he extended a hand in greeting. "I'm Jack," he said, despite the mystery girl's earlier warning about names. What she said still didn't make sense to him, and he didn't want to see this woman so upset.

#40 Jan 17th, 9:18pm

Danielle Thamasa

Nascha raised an eyebrow, looking at the boy...young man. Slowly she reached out and took his hand, giving it a brief shake. He seemed relatively harmless. The woman with him was a different story. "You may call me Brooke."

#41 Jan 17th, 9:20pm

The Terrific Trio

"Nice ta meetchya." Jack said as he grinned. "So are you just a really nervous person or something? You looked sad when you were at the water's edge."

#42 Jan 17th, 9:25pm

Danielle Thamasa

Nascha's amber eyes were wide and tear-filled. "There are many things in the area that can make one nervous."

#43 Jan 17th, 9:29pm

The Terrific Trio

"Like what, the Liar Stools? I had one of those once, Mom had to put up with me thinking I was giant slayer for a year." Jack chuckled, trying to cheer her up.

#44 Jan 17th, 9:31pm

Danielle Thamasa

Nascha shook her head. "No, things like dark mages and curses," she answered sadly.

#45 Jan 17th, 9:34pm

The Terrific Trio

"What?" Jack asked in total dumbfoundness.

#46 Jan 17th, 9:36pm

Danielle Thamasa

She sighed. "You wouldn't understand."

#47 Jan 17th, 9:37pm

The Terrific Trio

"Um...ok, that's fine. Where are you going now?" Jack asked.

#48 Jan 17th, 9:38pm

Danielle Thamasa

She looked around. "Somewhere in this forest. I never leave it; I haven't in over three years."

#49 Jan 17th, 9:44pm

The Terrific Trio

"Really? I live in the forest and know it pretty well, but I've never met you before. Have I?" Jack asked.
