Weekend Visit to the Cove

[Julius Rainmaker]

Julius was sitting on a stool right outside of his tent at the cove. He was leaned back, just barely leaning on the tent with his legs crossed. He was smoking a pipe, a horrible habit but it was something he picked up. The smoke from the pipe smelled strangely like something you would expect to smell in tea ingredients, vanilla and just a hint of chamomile.

"What do you mean that I shouldn't smoke my tea? This isn't tea and you know it. Your grandfather taught me how to blend different ingredients with the tobacco to take the awful taste and smell away. Hush now, I'll not have you fussing in my ear." He said to what was an apparently invisible person.

He spotted a lot of teenagers and some slightly older people mingled here and there, coming toward him. He didn't bother moving as he watched them coming off the trolley.

[Annabelle Ventus]

Annabelle got off the trolley first and looked around. "Wow Bree! This place is amazing!" She squeals and then sees a man looking at them. She didn't know if it was the air around there or not, but she ran over to the man and hugged him. "Are you the welcoming committee?" She said with a giggle.

[Alavda Noir]

Alavda followed the sorceress, and looked around, "I have to agree with Belle. Beautiful," she breathed in the air as she she took a few steps forward, "I'm really glad that we came here," she brushed a curly strand of hair out of her face, sniffing the air again, "But what is that smell?"

Then her line of sight landed on a man that was seated in front of a tent. She wondered what he was smoking...it smelled...good. In a way, "Uh Belle?" she started when Belle randomly ran up to the strange looking sorcerer, "Uh, never mind..." Belle had already hugged the stranger.

[Julius Rainmaker]

Julius hugged Annabelle, but not exactly enthusiastically, more like a patting. "Its nice to see you again... No, I'm sorry. I don't remember you," He said pulling back. He had his brow furrowed in thought, racking his brain for any memory of the blond sorcerer child.

[Bree Aldertree]

Bree hopped off the trolley and walked behind Annabelle to where the man was standing. Bree instantly recognized her great uncle, not because she's seen him before but because he looked just like the family pictures that she had seen.

She giggled as Annabelle hugged him and he reacted the way he did. She started rocking back and forth on the balls of her feet, watching the exchange between the two.

[Annabelle Ventus]

Annabelle just looks at him and smiles. "No I have never met you sir, I'm just in a huggy mood right now." she says and sees some more of her friends come out of the trolley. "So, what shall we do now my friends?" she asks, quite curious onto what the group wanted to do.

[Julius Rainmaker]

Julius relaxed slightly, sagging with relief. He put his pipe down on the stool beside him.

"You frightened me there for a moment child, I thought I lost my mind. You don't know how precious yet fleating sanity is." He said in a slightly scolding yet good natured manner.

"Ah, you came with friends.." he began but was cut off by yet another girl hugging him.

[Bree Aldertree]

Bree rushed to hug Julius as soon as he relaxed from Annabelle's hug. She giggled when she felt the same unsure hug that Julius had given Annabelle.

"Uncle Julius! I've been searching everywhere for you!!" Bree said happily. She pulled back and saw Julius looking at her quizzically and she giggled.

"I'm Bree, Bree Aldertree." She said happily.

"Ah, yes.. I heard you would be coming. My.. you're unique.." He said to her, then turned slightly, "I don't know if uniqueness runs in the family. Honestly, what has gotten into you today? I thought I told you to go away." He said, once more talking to the invisible person.

Bree giggled as she watched. She had heard that her uncle was quite unusual. She turned to look at Annabelle, "We could just hang out and see if we can feel any of the energy here. I heard that this was the best place to work magic." She said.

[Annabelle Ventus]

Annabelle smiled at Bree. "Really? Alright! Then we can give our crew a show!" She said, though when she said it she though of magic tricks Adamites do for there children and laughed slightly. She did slightly frown though due to the fact that she knew some of them actually thought that magic was just that.

[Nick Hampton]

Nick got out and looked at the two sorceresses and tilted his head at the man. He didn't remember him being on the trolley with them. He quickly realized though that he must live in that tent next to him. He looked behind himself and put out his hand. "You can come out Jessa, it's magnificent out here." He says with a reassuring smile.

[Jessa Johanson]

Jessa stepped off the trolley, pulling Aralynn behind her.. barely. When Jessa stepped off the trolley, she looked around and her jaw dropped a little. The place was beautiful. She felt a tingling, not something unpleasant.. just different. Like you would feel in any place that was full of energy.

She let go of Aralynn's hand and spun around with her eyes closed, her arms out stretched. A smile spread across her lips as she took it all in. When she opened her eyes, she smiled bashfully and tucked her hair behind her ear nervously.

"You're right Nick, its amazing.." she said. She wondered if anyone else could feel the energy. She wanted to ask, but she didn't dare. She didn't want to seem too weird.

"Should we go over to where Bree and Annabelle are, by that man?" She asked.

[Bree Aldertree]

"Oh yeah! Lets do it!" Bree said, rubbing her hands together. She turned her head to look at Jessa, and grinned at her reaction to the place. Even though Jessa was an Adamite she seemed to feel the affects of the cove.

Thats when she spotted someone getting off the trolley that she didn't recognize. She skipped over to the guy and grabbed his hand and shook it.

"Hey! I don't know you!" She said, "I'm Bree."

[Nick Hampton]

"I-" Nick began but then his brother stepped in. "I'm not quite sure that is a good idea quite yet. I think they are trying to find...something." Elliot says slightly confused about it himself.

Nick pondered then noticed something. "I think they are looking for energy...can anyone else feel it?" He says and walks a little more. Now the curiosity was taking over Nick.

[Annabelle Ventus]

Annabelle looks over at the trolley and notices the twins haven't gotten out yet. "Hey come on, Bree and I want to show you guys something." She said to the entire group, but hoped that the twins would come out. She was afraid that they had changed there minds and were gong to leave.

[Jessa Johanson]

Jessa quickly looked at Nick, ignoring Elliot.

"You feel it too? Its... I don't know how to explain it." She said and started walking with Nick. "I think I really like this place." She added.

She heard Annabelle say that she had something she wanted to show them, "Coming!" Jessa called, "Are you two coming?" She asked Nick and Aralynn who she had left behind a little distance.
