Teleport With Error
AK510-40 Cool Summer End Week 4 [Charon Guiding, Shale Resting, Cycles Watching]
Cogaday (afternoon)
Ethan persuaded his companions to go to Stormwatch to inform the Ambassador of the Teth Cromith XIV threat. Ivellios summoned his magic and reached out into the astral plane. They disappeared. Hurtling through the mind numbing vastness of the astral plane Ivellios struggled to focus his mind on the city of Stormwatch. He had not paid much attention to the city when he had been there almost a year ago as he had been hiding among some peasants on their way to founding a new settlement. He had been hiding from disgrace. He remembered that the city had a major port and that it was very close to the water. He focused on that. And the spell ejected them into the prime material plane as requested.
They appeared at the right altitude for the dining room of a restaurant in a major inn in Stormwatch that overlooked the sea port. Unfortunately, while they were at the right height, they were 200 miles to the west of Stormwatch. This left them forty feet in the air and about a mile off the Stormwatch coast, above the cold grey churning sea. A whale spurted freezing salty brine into the air nearby as the wind whipped at their clothes.
They began to fall.
Having anticipated that misfortune would come from defying the laws of nature by travelling through the astral plane, John was ready and he sprouted eagles wings as he started to fall. His new feathery limbs caught the stiff wind and arrested his descent. John Eagleby twisted his wings slightly and turned the dive into lift and he soared up into the air.
His master had taught Todd many useful tricks and one of which was to use magic to turn a lethal fall into a slow drop. Suddenly the plummeting companions were drifting towards the sea like feathers. Todd grinned at the look of surprise and perhaps grudging admiration from the wizard.
They were almost in the water as Ivellios started to cast another teleport spell. The waves were lapping at this feet as Eagleby flew back to him and he finished the spell. They disappeared once again. Tin Tan almost fainted with relief. Tin Tan did not like water. Ivellios aimed for somewhere a little hotter and dryer. As he floated through the astral once more, he focused on the Tine temple in Stormwatch. Even though he had never been there, he had a strong bond with his god, with fire.
They rematerialised in flames. The heat was intense as they stood in the Prime Crucible of the Temple of Tine. Ethan, John and Todd screamed in pain and shock and leapt out of the fire. Todd's reflexes would have put a cat to shame. He was in mid air, coiling and twisting, then landing, rolling and standing before even fire could catch him. He came to rest gracefully, leaning against a wall and casually studied the contents of a pouch he had borrowed from a priest as he had tumbled past.
Ethan wasn't so quick and was burned as the stumbled out of the crucible and fell heavily to the floor below. Eagleby flapped busily to the ground his burning feathers smoking as he tried to beat them out.
Tin Tan thought this was all hilarious and grinned. His amusement was infectious and spread to all the pyromaniacs in the room. The others heard his ratty little laugh and glared at him. He didn't care, after all he was the best character in the village.
The priests and congregation were remarkably tolerant of the intrusion. Ivellios convinced them that he was a fire mage on important church business and was invited to complete the ceremony. Tin Tan remained in the crucible. Ashrats were an unofficial mascot of the Tine church in Stormwatch and to have one as a familiar was considered to be highly fashionable and a sign of Tine's favour.
