Who: Corisanthias and Open When: Lunch time Where: Lake Alata'elen What: Corisanthias leaves his new residence for the first time.
He was still confused as to everything that was going on. He remembered the whale, the struggle to fell the beast, the reek of its decaying corpse in the sun, and then...
He was in this place. He had no idea who had saved him only that he had awoken in a building with the smell of water enticing him to get up. He gingerly stretched his legs, grimacing for the first time in a while from a pain other than the huge scar running across his ankles. Despite gaining his strength back, he'd probably remain sore for a few more days, if not from the struggle, than from the change in climate.
But he had to figure out where he was. He stood from the bed he'd been recuperating upon, noting that someone had graciously put some shorts on him. He'd never understood the humans problem with nudity, but he understood well enough that it bothered them a lot. Even in only shorts he was still warm though, and whether someone had left clothes for him or not, he didn't need them.
He walked to the door and slowly stepped out into his new environment, inhaling deeply. He realized too late that it wasn't the ocean he was smelling, but a lake, and a fresh water lake at that He coughed in surprise and leaned against the door to try to come to his sense. Where on earth had he found himself?
