[Poised on a stretch of snow-capped cliffs looking over Cothromach's strong-hold on one side, Cu Chulainn posted on his locket and gave it a wide grin. His spear was resting over his shoulder and he looked absolutely unbothered by the razor-sharp, freezing winds lashing at him. In the far distance, a plume of black smoke rose up from a camp that he had recently razed and destroyed. Lancer made his distance earlier, to avoid being scouted too easily]


Hey there. It's come to my attention that we've got some unwelcome Unseelie soldiers sticking around Cothromach. I think they figured their camps were pretty well-disguised, but after awhile--it gets tough to hide that many soldiers. So--

[With a grin, he stood up straight and began walking up the cliff-face, scaling the mountain on foot. At that point, the mangled and burning Unseelie camp could be seen more clearly in the opposite direction as Cothromach. The mountain face gave Lancer an eagle's view of that camp, though it was largely too difficult for most people to scale as quickly as he had.]


I'm usually the type to hog the glory, but I'm missing a few of my precious abilities, so I'll need some help rooting those folks out and running them out of these lands. Who's in for some raids?

[OOC: Plot planning is here!]

Hello?

[The video feed is pitch black with Jude's face barely visible on it, mainly, because it's the middle of the night and Jude had the unfortunate luck to arrive outside of Caer Glaem, several miles away in the meadows surrounding the stronghold. The explanation he'd gotten from the fairies was brief at best, confusing at worst, and he's already walking towards the nearest looking settlement-- the castle.]

Am I using this correctly....? It's too dark to see much...

[Jude's lucky he has good reflexes-- he trips and the video feed jolts, but he quickly corrects himself with a small noise of surprise, grip tightening on the locket in his palm. He speaks again after wrapping the chain attached to the locket around his wrist, frowning a little.]

...Could anyone explain where I am? I think I see a castle in the distance, but it's so dark out I can't read the map they gave me.
