island picks the worst times

[a young boy, soaked to the bone and with his clothes sopping wet and reeking of salt, is dragging himself up a beach grumbling at his outstretched hand]

Come on, magic doesn't just disappear! Nor do staves! In mid-air! Aah... either way, it's a good job I learnt how to swim...

And you do not know why your magic disappeared?

[robenwizrdharem.livejournal.com]

It's been happening to everyone else, as well. It's... most likely the island. I guess I can explain it best by saying it's some kind of wild magic zone? Strange things happen, sometimes.

[queenofcalamity.livejournal.com]

I suppose so.

[removes her cloak]

Come here.

[robenwizrdharem.livejournal.com]

I-it's quite alright, you don't need to--...

[trails off :<]

[comes over and wraps him in her cloak]

You need to change out of those clothes. You will catch a cold if you do not.

[robenwizrdharem.livejournal.com]

A-ah... alright.

[queenofcalamity.livejournal.com]

Come along.

[holds out her hand]

[takes it, musing to himself as he wanders along]

... I wonder what it's doing to the others. There's at least one house here that's wholly magic, and some of the people are kind of reliant upon it...

[queenofcalamity.livejournal.com]

I suppose that will be a problem. But the people on the island seem to be quite resourceful.

[robenwizrdharem.livejournal.com]

R-... right. I'll have to check if this has happened to anyone before.

[queenofcalamity.livejournal.com]

Perhaps we can ask of your father to do so. He does not appear to have many things to do.

[and says it in a way that says 'you're daddy is lazy']

[robenwizrdharem.livejournal.com]

... ah... don't be too hard on him. He's really not all bad, I promise.

[queenofcalamity.livejournal.com]

No. He is not all bad. He has his redeeming qualities...but he is still a bird brain...

[they keep waaaaaaaaaaaaaalking.]

[... slightly awkward silence for a moment]

Ah... have you had a chance to see much of the island chain yet?

[queenofcalamity.livejournal.com]

No I have not. I have been busy cleaning the house so that beings will once again be able to live within it.

A-ahaha... ... ... w-we used to have, uhm, more in the way of neat-minded people living there...
