Home of the Konti people, this ivory city is built of native konti stone half in and half out of the sea. Its borders touch the Silverwood, and stretch upwards towards Silver Lake, home of the infamous konti vision water. [Lore]

OOCHey, no worries. Hope everything has been going well.

Flow, don't think... The words reminded him of his own daily meditations. Eyelashes tinted with the grey of Zulrav's storm clouds fluttered gently as he let his indigo eyes slide shut. He took two deep breaths as the waves ran against his midriff. The Ethaefal's lean chest rose and fell with each inhalation, his pale flesh wet with the sea and shining with the moon's light.

The idea was to relax, and let what he had learned before rise up. He felt his muscles loosening, becoming soft and pliable, ready to respond to Quelen's guiding touch. The pressure on one hand told him to step backwards, as they had one before, and then in again. The movements were simple and his limbs lifted more easily in the water. But the sea resisted his movements, the tide pressing against his legs, pulling against the steps, heavy and thick with darkness. I each environment brings its own challenges, he thought, trying not to move to forcefully against the ocean's pressure.

The soft moving water and the rustle of the surf against the shore were the only sounds on the beach for a time, as Cilaes attempted to relax while still controlling his body. It was pleasant but he felt as though the silence couldn't continue forever. "Do all Charodae dance like this, Quelen? I don't know much about your people."

School is a busy, busy place. I will be posting as regularly as I can, but to stay balanced only expect posts on Monday and Friday (maybe the weekend). Sorry for the delays!

Mura By Moonlight (Quelen)

Quelen smiled softly at Cilaes as the two of them slowly made their way through the dance as the small waves lapped against them. The flow of the water tugged gently on her, as if inviting her to come deeper, and the thought briefly flitted through her mind. That would cause problems for Cilaes however, and so she let the pull of the waves take the idea away.

"Most dance a little, but not everyone dances as much as I do," Quelen answered Cilaes' question with a smile as she slowly guided him through the third open and closed steps, her body almost drifting back and forth through the water, "We actually have a dance of greeting, but I don't know how to show you that one. I haven't figured out how to do it on land yet," she gave a little giggle at the thought of what a tangled mess they would end up in if they tried to do the dance on the land, "Everyone back in Charbosi has their own things that they like to do. Some focus on dancing and singing, like me, and others like to focus on crafting with coral or collecting pretty and interesting things from the ocean," as she spoke Quelen moved through the water in the fourth opening and closing movements of the Four Pearls.

As the two of them came back together after the fourth closing Quelen smiled warmly at Cilaes, pausing just a moment, and then slowly began to move into the first circling. She circled to her left, using her hand to tug Cilaes after her in encouragement of continuing the dance, "You're doing very well Cilaes. Is the water helping?"
