Raistlin and Tasslehoff
Some random forest somewhere
Raistlin and Tas walked for what felt like ages. Which was nothing entirely new. It was their main way of travel. Only this time, Raistlin did not have his stronger twins arm to lean on. The young mage had to stop more and more often. And as the day continued, they were coming to a harsh realization that neither of them had been responsible for carrying any supplies. Meaning all they had were what Raistlin needed for his tea, and whatever spell components that might be edible. Which, as a magic user, Raistlin would sooner starve than eat is only line of defense.
Tasslehoff, however, was much more effected by the lack of food. "Raistlin, can we stop and catch something?" The Kender whined, "oh, wait, are those berries?"
"They could be poison, and I have nothing to cure that…" the mage rasped, at this point keeping a rough grip on the shorter males shoulder to keep him from going off and getting himself killed. Though now, he was using Tas for support just as much as his staff.
They came to the break in the trees, and Tas stopped suddenly. Raistlin nearly collided into him and sent them sprawling into the paved road before them. Though, any grumpy outbursts were stopped by the sheer oddity of the road. It was paved smooth, with lines painted. Such things were rare to see, only the biggest cities had cobblestone paved roads. And those were still uneven at best. This was smooth, with only the occasional pot hole in view. He bent and touched the road, bringing his hand back. It didn't feel like any substance he knew.
"Tas…. I think we are far, far away from home…"
"Well, yeah. It's been ages since we've been to Solace." Tas responded, thinking that much was obvious.
"No, I mean we are not in Krynn." Raistlin sighed, looking down the road both ways. He frowned, seeing that they didn't seem too far from a city. It was lucky, and he judged that they might be to make it before sun-down. Depending on if he could keep his body moving. "This way." He instructed, leading the way toward where he assumed civilization to be.
"Well, if that's true then I hereby promise to guard you until we find the others!" Tas proclaimed, Raistlin just uttering a low groan.
They didn't make it far before a car zoomed by, blaring it's horn at the pedestrians. This excited Tas, who stuck his Hoopak in they are and spun it and shouted "wooo!" At the top of his lungs in an attempt toimic the sound.
Raistlin was much less entertained as he thought he was going to have a heart attack. He nearly jumped out of his skin, and ended up sliding and falling into the ditch on the side of the road. The kender only noticed after the mage uttered a few sputtered swears.
"Oh, here! Lemme help you!" Tas said, holding his Hoopak out for the Mage to grab.
"I don't need your help!" Raistlin snapped, swatting it away, working on getting up just fall again in a fit of harsh coughing.
This time Tas jumped into the ditch to help the unfortunate mage. This time, Raistlin got up and they went back into the safety of the forest. Tas was disappointed, but Raistlin was not in the mood for another heart stopping encounter with whatever that was.
Only to come upon something else. The two stopped as an insect like creature landed in front of them. Raistlin very nearly calling up a fireball, as most giant insects tended to want to eat them. However, the magical words failed when it spoke. Leaving him staring, shocked. Unfortunately, with his eyes, it made the already disturbing sight of a humanoid insect more so as it aged and withered.
Tas jumped up and down like an excited toddler. "Woah! I've never met a talking cockroach!"
