[u]Balthazar stands up, his size now fully able to be seen. His shadow looms over his as his head brushes the lower branches of the tree, dislodging a few leaves. At twelve feet tall, he has to crouch down slightly to reach them with his hand. Leaves stick out of his long, grey hair, it's longest section reaching down to his lower back. A long, norse-styled braided beard runs down his chest. It's obvious if it wasn't braided in such manner, he would end up walking on it by accident. His face is covered in small nicks and scars, but dimples from smiling out number them ten-to-one. He wears a simple shirt and pants, both made out of some sort of animal hide. The shirt is dyed a dark green, the pants a light brown. His feet are bare, leaving large indentations in the grass wherever he walks. Po stands alongside Balthazar, putting his book away as he moves. He is dwarfed by Balthazar, standing at around five feet. His hair is not as long as Balthazar's, but it's silver tint shines and reflects the light that breaks through the tree's shade. He wears a simple tunic and pants, both a dull brown. His bag appears to be packed to the brim, it's contents books and herbs. He holds out his hand in greeting alongside Balthazar.[/u] B: "[i]I'm Balthazar, your friendly neighborhood giant.[/i]" P: "[b]And I'm Po, the healer and botanist of the Dojo.[/b]

  • [u]Nice to meet you two.[/u] *Sapphire smiles and holds out her and for them to shake.* [u][b]Good t-to meet you...[/b][/u] *Vorim continues awkwardly standing there, still barely making any eye contact, he has been trembling a little since Balthazar has stood up, clearly intimidated by him.* "Sorry about Vorim... It can be very hard for him to interact with people..." *Vorim nods but doesn't say a word.*

  • [u]Balthazar firmly grasps Sapphire's extended hand, his enormous fingers engulfing her hand and most of her wrist in a hearty hand shake. When he lets go, Po quickly grasps her hand again. Funnily enough, his grip is a lot stronger then Balthazar's with his long, bony fingers wrapping around her hand. He gives her a weaker shake, the place where his fingers wrapped around hurting slightly.[/u] B: "[i]So what brings you here?[/i]"

  • *She smiles although when their done shaking hands she just pulls hers away, rubbing it a little.* "We were just having a walk... What were you two doing out here?" *Sketch smiles too, Vorim just stays how he is, not making much eye contact.*

    [u]Balthazar scratches his head, his massive fingers sifting through his white hair. A few stray hairs float down, illuminated in the light like particles of dust. Po leans against the tree, taking out his book of Botany once again, leafing aimlessly through the pages.[/u] P: "[b]We were just relaxing. Appreciating so-called retirement, if you will.[/b]" [u]Balthazar chuckles after Po says retirement, thoroughly amused by the concept.[/u] B: "[i]That's right. No more fighting for us. We're taking a break from it all, as it's getting to be hard on our old bodies.[/i]"

  • "Oh, well, okay... Speaking of bodies... What happened to that panther body Po? I hope you buried it..."

  • [u]Po looks up from his book, scratching his nose as he looks towards Sketch.[/u] P: "[b]We buried it a while ago, bless their soul. Actually, it's under this tree. Or should I say, is this tree.[/b]" [u]He pats the tree with his free hand.[/u] P: "[b]Shortly after I buried the body, this thing popped up. I'm not brave enough to dig under and check, but I believe my switch to botany had something to do with it.[/b] [u]He rubs his hand along the tree's bark as it's leaves rustle in the wind. A few golden-brown leaves float down, whisked away into the air.[/u]

  • *He walks over to the tree and puts his hand on it.* "S-So you think this tree, might have sprouted up because he was buried here?"

  • [u]Po shrugs, looking up at the branches as they sway too and fro. Balthazar sits back down, staring back out towards the village.[/u] B: "[i]The Dojo is a strange place. You can't really assume anything here, as there's always another more likely possibility. The body could be the tree, or it could be a stray seed that fell in during the burial. With this place, you never really can be sure.[/i]" [u]Po nods, agreeing with what Balthazar said.[/u] P: "[b]We can't predict what'll happen here, but we sure can try our best to make it be for the best.[/b]"

  • "I agree... Maybe being sent to this world in the first place was for the best..." *Both Sapphire and Vorim are standing next to eachother, silent.*

  • [u]Balthazar and Po stare out into the fields, appreciating the beauty of it all. Sun shines down upon the golden brown wheat that adorns the trek between the Dojo and town as an old tractor plows through the fields, harvesting the wheat. Even from this distance, they can see the busy town squares bustling with activity, people like ants running around. The wheat sways gently in waves, almost in a hypnotizing rhythm of a calm seaside waterfront.[/u]

  • [u]Balthazar nods, continuing to look out onto the fields.[/u] B: "[i]This is why I love this spot. There's always a good view. Calms yah down, makes yah sleepy. I can't recount the times I've fallen asleep, just staring out into the distance...[/i]" [u]His voice trails off as he yawns, Po looking up from his book towards the distance. His eyes glaze over and shut, quietly falling asleep in an instant.[/u]

  • [u]Balthazar starts to snore, and Po's upper body slumps down with an exhale. The sun starts to set, golden rays slowly disappearing as the moon rises into the sky, revealing millions of stars, each glistening like tiny diamonds in the sky. It's a cloudless night, all of the clouds from before seemingly vanishing without a trace. The silhouette of mountains can be seen in the distance, seemingly the size of a pebble because of how far away they are. The moon glows dimly, lightly illuminating the surrounding area. It seems that the best idea would to be go home, as Po and Balthazar look like they need the rest.[/u] [spoiler]Fin.[/spoiler]
