Tamras followed Amaris, looking into the clearing with full curiosity, anxiety forgotten. But his grip on his staff was strong. “I’ve... never been near one before.” He admitted, growing closer to it. “I’ve only heard stories... Rumours, of the ones the Inquisition found.” He put out his free hand, entering the tip of the Eluvian. He looked at her. “We have no way of knowing what follows this. We’ll go in at the same time, with our weapons drawn, just in case.” He said, voice clear, and stepped back. “Three. Two. One! Go!” He pushed his body through the eluvian, staff raised, and fell into another world. He sat up, and found himself in a makeshift sanctuary for the elves. Awe washed over him, as he began to stand up and look around. “Where am I?” He whispered.

Amaris nodded as she heard him, as he counted down, she went in with him, her bow ready, but she stumbled a little as they exited on the other side. She lowered her bow and looked around in awe, "This is amazing." she said softly as she looked around, the calling had stopped, that meant they had arrived. This place was amazing, this place was... not home, not quite, but it was something, it was safety. "This is... this is like the stories." she said softly, "But this isn't the crossroads I don't thinl?" she asked as she looked around.

[mandalorian]

Tamras shook his head. "It isn't the crossroads." He began to walk, slowly, as if there was danger ahead. "The crossroads, they say, was a pathway to another dimension, that only the elves could access, filled with eluvians leading to places all around the world; places near, and dear, to us Elves." He turned, lips pursed. "This is not the crossroads. Fen'Harel, he is something... Capable. He is capable of rewriting the eluvians to go to a certain place, is he not? He's a God." He stepped towards the eluvian they exited from, and put his hand through it once more. "It's... Incredible. I've never seen that kind of magic done before, only talked about." His eyes widened. "He's here, isn't he? The Dread Wolf?" Tamras turned to Amaris. "We have to find him!"

[ShadowHunteress]

((Aww cute signature!))

Amaris looked around, she nodded, "This is something new, something... different." she said softly. She shouldered her bow, "Let's go find him." she said as she began walking with him, wondering where they were. If they skipped the crossroads.. what could that mean? How much power did the Dread Wolf have? What about the other gods? What ever happened to them? This was raising so many questions for her. None of which she could think of answers for. It was pretty overwhelming, and she wasn't sure how to handle it, other then head out with him and find the Dread Wolf, maybe he'd have answers for them, that was if he'd actually answer their questions, if they could find him.

Tamras looked around. There were elves nearby, who seemed just as confused as they did. He walked over to the group, making sure Amaris was following, before raising his voice. "Hello?" The elves looked at him, with a little bit of fear, and he extended his hand. "Do you know where he is? Has he come to any of you?" They shook their heads, and he looked at Amaris. "Where would the Dread Wolf hide? And why?" He put a hand on his chin, thinking. He put his staff on his back, and held his head in his hands for a few seconds. "I'm trying to focus. Bring back the calling that he was giving us earlier. If I could hear it again, maybe..." His face screwed up in pain, before relaxing. "He's nearby." He began to run up some nearby stone stairs.

[ShadowHunteress]

Amaris followed him and looked at the other elves, it seemed like no one knew where he was, but when Tamras focused, and seemed to be in pain for a moment, before he took off. "Wait up!" she called, running after him up the steps, she grabbed his hand in an attempt to slow him, "What if he doesn't want to see us?" she asked as she looked at him. "What if this place is to keep us safe, but what if he doesn't want to deal with us yet?" she asked him as she stopped. "We have to think before we just rush into this, he has been hiding so long, if he wanted to see us, to explain, why wouldn't he great us when we came out of the eluvian?" she asked as she looked at him.

[mandalorian]

"He took me away from my home so I could come here, and be safe? Safe from what?" Tamras questioned, face turning red. "I want answers, Amaris! I know you don't understand because you don't have a home, but I do. I want to know if I can go and see my boyfriend again, or when I will see him. I need to know what's happening and why." His eyes scrunched up. "I'm sick and tired of following people around and not being able to know what's happening. I want to know what's happening. I ── No! We deserve to know what's happening." He opened his eyes. "Come with me. Find him with me. We deserve answers, and I'm not going to wait around with a bunch of elves I don't know for weeks until he finally decides we're good enough for him."

[ShadowHunteress]

Amaris looked at him, listening as he spoke, "I know, I want to know as well, but do you want to risk angering him? As you said, you have a home, I don't. This is my first chance for a home Tamras, I will have to go back to living on the streets if we get kicked out of here!" she said as she shook her head a little. "Why should I risk my safety?" she asked as she looked at him, she exhaled softly as he continued on. "Fine, let's go find him then and hope that he does not banish us." she said as she started up the stairs once more. She truly hoped this didn't backfire on them, this place was supposed to be a real fresh start for her.

[[ ooc: we should both play solas when they're asking questions, just to make it fair lol ]]

Tamras looked at her momentarily, before continuing up the steps. On the top of the hill was a large waterfall in between a half-circle of cliffs, and a bridge leading straight into the center, into the waterfall. Tamras began to run, not caring that the bridge was potentially dangerous; he wanted answers, and he wanted them now. He arrived at the waterfall and cast a quick protection spell over him and Amaris, before taking her hand and pushing through the waterfall with her. There was a large room inside, filled with paintings he recognised to be old tales told of Fen'Harel. He let go of Amaris, and ran his hand over the wall. "Did he do this?"

[ShadowHunteress]

((Oh Jeeze lol, hopefully that goes well!))

Amaris followed, she watched silently, and nodded as he cast a protection spell over them before they went through the falls. She pushed her hair back and looked around, "Wow." she murmured, awestruck at the paintings, "He had to have..." she said as she looked at them all, it certainly was... a different perspective then she had ever seen. She heard someone clearing their voice and whirled, gasping audibly when she saw the Dread Wolf himself.
"I did indeed paint thise." he said as he looked at them, "You come here racing like mad fools, I take it you have questions." he said as he studied the pair.
