Shiallia - Dream - Everyone

Shia looked at her friend. I gotta calm down and help. She took a deep breath, and ran over to Veneficus. He didn't have a pulse. She looked over at Ferondir. "He's dead." She couldn't keep the shock out of her voice. The sun caught something shiny. She turned her head, and saw a limp body. "Sapphire!" When she reached her friend, it was clear the zora was dead. She whispered, "What happened?" Her knife was next to the body. She picked it up. I'm sorry I couldn't protect you. She blinked, then walked back to Ferondir. "They're both dead. How could this happen?"

Day 7 (Afternoon)/Guzore/20/Where: The Dream/With: Everyone

Guzore got up from the sand and rubbed his temples. Everyone was yelling and screaming and there was tension in the air.
Oh.... Brothers, what just happen-
Guzore's sentence was cut short when he saw Veneficus and Sapphire laying on the ground. Veneficus was very clearly dead, but Sapphire could've just been passed out... right? Guzore tried to hold back his tears, but then remembered that Gorons didn't cry. But why did he feel like crying anyway? He didn't even know what crying felt like since he had never done it before. Guzore ran over to Veneficus' body and grabbed the shoulders. They were cold and lifeless. He struggled to utter words out of his mouth.
How... how did this happen!?
Guzore was beginning to feel lightheaded and dizzy. The world begun to spin around him and he stumbled over to a nearby rock to lean on. He felt nauseous.

Journeyman Ferondir of Mira ~ Lanayaru Desert (Or is he? Muahaha) ~ Day 7, 2:55

Ferondir breathed out slowly, walking toward the others. "From what I could tell, Ravoo attacked Veneficus. It may be that he has become very territorial about his Barrel." He looked down at the master's body. "I'm actually very surprised he went down without a fight." He glanced over at Saphire. Poor girl. "It seems she just keeled over from there." Inside, he was burning with panic. But running away and curling up into a ball, no matter how good that sounded just now, wasn't going to help anyone. He took another deep breath, and released it shakily. "I don't know if the Zora bury their dead, but we don't have much of a choice now." He knelt next to Veneficus. "May Hylia guide your spirit home." He repositioned the man's arms in a more elegant pose, and stood up. "We'll have to bury them. Then we'll keep going. The evil Veneficus spoke of is still coming." He picked up his staff, wiped the blood off his jaw, and using magic, lifted just enough sand for a shallow grave for them both.
He fell to his knees, winded. "That sand was heavier then I expected."
He took a few breaths and turned to Guzore. "Help me move them." He couldn't hold it in any longer, and he felt a cold tear cut through the sand on his face. He roughly wiped it off and waited next to Veneficus for Guzore to join him. If only I'd had the strength to stop this.

Day 7 (Afternoon)/Guzore/20/Where: The Dream/With: Everyone

Guzore felt his throat clench. He still couldn't process the fact that Sapphire and Veneficus were dead. A thought suddenly struck his mind.
Ferondir, how are we even gonna know what to do with the swords? Veneficus is the only one who knows how to get where we're going, and-and... what about the Bordix??
Guzore began breathing heavily. This adventure had turned into a nightmare. He came out just to have a good time, and he was honestly feeling so attacked right now by his emotions.
This... This wouldn't have happened if it weren't for Ravoo!! AAARRRGH!!
Guzore ran to the tendrils and began punching them with all his might.
I'm not gonna let you get away with killing my friend, brother!!

Journeyman Ferondir of Mira ~ Lanayaru Desert (Actually passed out on the ground in the Faron Woods) ~ Day 7, 2:55

Ferondir shook his head. "Stop it, Guzore!" he shouted.
"Maybe there's some papers on him," he muttered.
He was searching Veneficus. "No. Nothing." He stood up. "We'll just have too..."
He suddenly had an Idea.
It wasn't like Veneficus, as a master, to forget such basic information.
Something funny was going on...
"Oh!" He pulled out the Ocarina. "If he's somehow still alive, I can reach him with this."
He slumped.
Sapphire couldn't play it anymore. "Ugh..."

Shiallia - Desert - A shrinking number of people

Shia started to panic. "So let me get this straight- We're stuck in the middle of the desert, half of us are either dead or crazy, and an evil purple guy who's after your swords wants to kill us? Oh, I forgot to mention he's the leader of a giant purple faction. And we're supposed to save Hyrule, but the only guy who knows how is dead. Can't forget that part." She backed up a few steps, putting her hand on her forehead. She murmured to no one in particular, "How are we getting out of this one?"

Journeyman Ferondir of Mira ~ Lanayaru Desert (Actually passed out on the ground in the Faron Woods) ~ Day 7, 2:55

Ferondir reached out to her. "We're not stuck. We can see the forest just on the horizon. First thing we need to do is get there and out of this heat." He sighed. "We started this without him, and I'm pretty sure that he said the entrance to the other dimension is in Goron Mountain. Something like that is bound to be obvious, and the gorons certainly know about it to some degree."
He grabbed hold of Veneficus once more. "Here, help me move him to the grave there."

Shiallia - Desert - Everyone

Shia walked over, and picked up one of Veneficus' arms. "He said he needed to activate the portal." She pulled on the limb, slowly dragging the body toward the hole.

Journeyman Ferondir of Mira ~ Lanayaru Desert (Actually passed out on the ground in the Faron Woods) ~ Day 7, 2:56

Ferondir sighed. "I'm sure that Jakub, Zeph, and I can figure it out once we're there. I mean, he's pretty smart, but I'm sure we can do this without him." They both dragged Veneficus into the pit.
"Wait a second..." Ferondir looked around at the group. "Where is Jacob?"

Della Collern/13/Colorblind/Where: Dream/With: Who knows

Della watched all that was going on, trying to process what everyone was doing. She noticed Sapphire on the ground and knelt next to her, thinking of what might have happened. She eventually stood up, only one thought on her mind. All of this had to be Zeph's fault, right? He was always getting them into trouble.
