Forlion saw the travelers creep closer away. He didnt pretty much care, but couldnt help but feel anoyed at his one chance of life running away.
Suddenly the orcs got up as one, and charged, at a suprisingly fast rate at the treat. They seemed to grunt in a curious tone. The intruders were surrounded.
OOC: Is that ok, or is it controling the othere characters too much.

OOC: it's perfectly fine, Rishiy. Cyra let out a very faded scream as a horde of Orcs suddenly surrounded her and Shoni. They didn't look too menacing, but they ddin't look friendly, either. And it was certainly not a friendly act when four big ones grabbed them and pushed them roughly to the camping, near the fire. There was already someone there, tied up. He looked oddly like an orc, but at the same time, he looked like something else. "An half orc, perhaps," Cyra though, when they approached. The Orcs were now trying to figure out what to do with them, and the two big strong ones holding one of Cyra's arms each were determined not to let her go until a decision was made. She wished they would let her go - they were hurting her. She also wished she was home, with her family, peacefully, instead of in a big mess like that, but then she remembered Tylvanas and why exactly she was there. She glanced at Shoni and sighed sadly.

(OOC: its nias at the end of Tylvanias. Just to let you know.)
All of the orcs are still arguing after 5 minutes. One of the orcs held a tighter grip on Cyra, so she wouldn't be able to escape. Suddenly, smoke came out of a dark cloud in the sky, or was it a cloud?

Shoni suppressed a scream and tried, in vain, to wrench herself away.
The burst of cloud suddenly caught her eye. What could it be...?

The "cloud" raises wings, oh wait, clouds don't have wings. The, whatever it is, opened an eye, and stared at Shoni. It looked like a dragon...

Shoni gasped audibly--a gasp of awe, admiration, and fear. She glanced over at Cyra.

The dark dragon opened his wings wide and stared with his yellow eyes at the Orcs and their prisioners. Cyra looked up at it and was amazed. She had never seen a dragon before - she had never even see a creature taller than her - and she was shocked and amazed at the same time.
She stared at the dark figure, as it looked back at her, and suddenly it winked at her. Wait... It winked?
Then in a puff of smoke, everything was gone - the Orcs, the camping, the forest, the mountain, the fire. She was in a garden, a beautiful garden, somewhere high, the top of a mountain, or something, and all she could see were pretty flowers and clouds. She took a few steps and found Shoni and the other prisioner among the flowers, as well. The big dragon was laying on a big cloud, and looked at all three of them, smiling kindly.
"Welcome to the Garden of Tranquility," the dragon announced, eventually.

OOC: I hope this dosent ruin any plans.
Forlion looked up at the dragon. He began to shake with faer, the gods had come. He began to violently shake, trying to wrench himself out of the tight bonds. After a while, he stopped, gasping for air.
He looked down at the two travelers. They had blissful lookes on their faces, even though in the wake of such danger. He wasnt suprised. Thats how the orc gods worked. They sent any non orc into a land of dreams and wishes. A virtual reality. They made them beleive they were somewhere else so the secret rituals of the orcs would stay unseen. They would be killed after anyway.
He suddenly had an idea. If he could just get their attention. Bring them out of the dream world, they would be in a perfect position to save them. All the orcs had moved closer to the fire, knowing what their god was doing.

Shoni, with glittering eyes, took a step back. This place was exquisitely beautiful.
She stared at the dragon, who had an unreadable expression on his face. Suddenly, she wished to know what it was thinking.
Just for an experiment, she tried to use her Zirlae, but it wouldn't work. That wasn't unusual; she was still developing her gifts. However, when she tried to see into the dragon's past--and this was one thing she always could do--she found that her Zirlae could not be used on him, nor on the prisoner who had also found himself in this place.
Shoni shivered. Despite the joy that this place gave her, something must be wrong. She found herself, though, still admiring the beauty of the land....

While Cyra was still enchanted by the beauty of the place, she wasn't so sure of what to think. She looked at Shoni, and noticed she was amazed by the place, as well. But when she looked at the half-orc... He looked like he was in some kind of trouble, and looked worried. She approached him.
"What's wrong?"

Back in the real world, Forlion was working on some magic. Very primative, as he was not a mage, but just enough to do the trick.
In the dream world his eyes flicked open. He gazed at Cyra in an eyrie manner. "Get out. GET OUT" a voice rang out. IT was loud and shrill, it didnt seem to be coming from anywhere in particular. "RUN!" It shrieked!
The ground of the land began to tear. Where it shredded its self, an ampty blackness appeared. Forlion saw the two travelers running. Suddenly, the one they called Cyra tripped and fell into the blackness. Shoni soon folowed. After he had made sure they had bot exited, he allowed him self to be enveloped.
Forlion was back in the real world. He saw the two travelers snap out of the dream. Whats more, they were in the perfect possition to attack.

Something weird happened, and all of a sudden, Cyra was no longer in the beautiful garden, she was back at the Orcs' camping. She didn't understand fully what had happened, but realised what was needed: a fight.
Two Orcs were very near her, and she quickly kicked and slapped them as strongly as she could. The surprise element played a big part, and the two Orcs fell on the ground, knocked out.
She ran forward, to the fire, and grabbed a big piece of wood in flames. And not exactly sure of what she was doing, but feeling it never the less, she used it as a sword, burning the nearest Orc's chest.

Shoni, slightly confused but oddly relieved, glanced at Cyra, who started to fight. Shoni cursed under her breath; her sword, which was her best weapon, had been left where they had slept. Her crude bow and arrow had been left as well, but this wasn't too bad because she wasn't a wondrous archer; she was barely decent. Her only hope was to try and fight without any weapons.
This wasn't too much of a problem, but she never liked doing it. Actually, she wasn't too fond of any type of fighting and only fought when necessary. This was certainly necessary.
She quickly joined in.
OOC: Anyone else is free to join...the more the merrier! Everyone seems to be intimidated....

"HELP!" Screamed Forlion.

Forlion's scream echoed in the air. Cyra turned away from the pile of knocked out and burnt Orcs and saw some Orcs doing something to Forlion. She couldn't quite figure what it was they were doing, but she didn't waste another second trying to find out. She attacked one of the Orcs with the torch, and they let go of Forlion.
However, Cyra's attack techniques weren't that great, and the Orc, which was much bigger than her took the torch away from her.
"Ooh, it's the end..." She thought, panicking, as the Orc pushed the fire near her face.
The two other Orcs, seeing Cyra was pretty much dominated by the first Orc, turned to the other prisioners. One of them walked towards Shoni menacingly, while the other focused on Forlion.
