The Sea of Deception

It was nighttime when caravan of elves, humans, Riders, pirates, and dragons, reached the destination where Leviticus said the ocean would be they were all astonished to find it a barren desert. The desert lacked sand dunes, cactus, and surprisingly, extreme temperatures. It was not hot, but neither was it cold as it should be at night.

As Charity stepped onto the sand she fell and disappeared.

"What- what just h-happened?" asked Flint, the brother of Charity. Then Charity poked her head out of the "sand" and said,

"Come in! The water feels great!" Everyone was on the brink of insanity as they heard her words, everyone that is except the Riders. "

It seems she has found our missing ocean," said Render without flinching,

"We should all mount the dragons and have them float us across."

Charity then came out of the water drenched and dripping.

Will said "Reisa du adurna." and the water lifted off of Charity.

Then he said, "Letta," and suspended the water in the air,

"Bonnie, get a cup and please hurry." she came with a wooden cup and caught the water as Will released the flow of magic. She then drank it carefully in case it was salt water. After she drank a sip she got a bright smile and then drank the rest down without hesitation.

"It's sweeter that water from a spring!" she said.

"Well let's not stand around when we could be swimming," said Flint, "Am I the only one who's noticed that it's the middle of the day and the sun is down?"

"Time must be a void here and the sun must not reach this place." said Leviticus, reading from the book his brother gave to him. Render, Will, and Leviticus called to their dragons and they walked into the water.

"I don't like to swim for long periods of time you know." said Clesseath.

"I know." said Leviticus, "We won't be here for more than two days."

They swam on for five more hours until they reached an island with a forest on it.

"That's the elfish island of Edur." said Render, "We should stay there and rest."

Once they landed a cloaked figure rushed out and jumped on Bonnie. She threw the assassin off and regained her posture ready to strike at the mysterious figure. Render's elven eye saw that the person was a girl and also an elf.

He told Will, "That is Marina, the elf we introduced you to in Lenutha."

Render then said to the girl, "Marina, elf warrior of the far Forest, We come in peace and wish not to harm you."

She then replied saying, "I apologise for the misunderstanding, Riders of far away lands. Please, rest, the night is comming quickly."

So they all set up camp and slept through the night.

In the castle of the Dragon Blades on more blade appeared engraved, "The blade of Marina, elf of Lenutha."

Ooh! Coolness. Go Marina!

Hm...

I guess in a twisted strange way this kinda works.

Remember, we met Marina in Alagasia within the story Bonnie and I wrote.

La fist Paragraph was kinda difficult to read. You might want to re-word it.

'Night-time' not Nighttime.

When a dialect is made, always start with a new Paragraph with no space underneath. e.g.

One wonderful afternoon, Dan took note of the flowers, birds, trees, and hills.
"I wonder if Lenny will be outside today," Dan said with an extended finger.
As he walked along the trail, Dan noticed his faithful companion.
"Dan, I knew you would come out today. Isn't it magnificent outside?" Lenny claimed while looking once again at his surroundings.
"Lenny, you couldn't have said it better!"

The End

NOTE: Remember indents as well.

The Comment bar didn't allow me to make indents, but remember, they are very, very important.

It won't let me. Thanks though. :D

Sam Wick said...

Better? It double spaces automatically.

Hannah Banana said...

Did Rob make you that picture that matches Render's?

Sam Wick said...

No, I turned it and colored it differently. I needed something more fo-sist-o-mo-cated.
