landlocked school of fish

Kina couldn't sleep that night as tremors rolled through the land. Something was wrong. She gathered her things, calling to her companions before slipping out into the maze. She sat there for awhile, gazing up at the sky, searching for signs of volcanic activity or anything else that might indicate what was happening. Instead she was greeted by a strange red light cresting over the horizon.

Usually obedient it was not like her to leave without notifying anyone but she knew a couple of her siblings had been out hunting and she felt like she needed to find them immediately. Luckily her egret caught sight of the group and she was able to catch up with them as they arrived at a very strange looking location with large stone spires reaching out of the ground like they were piercing the sky.

She padded over to Kaizen as he mentioned the long night. "He hasn't said much of it to me, but it sounded bad. Do you think the sun will rise all the way? I don't like that it seems so… red." Kina stepped toward one of the spikes, noting how it looked old and weathered. She hadn't been in Boreas enough to know if these spires were always here but she knew Jynn had been all over both continents and had never mentioned anything like this in her stories. That was uncharacteristic to leave out something this fantastical. Her eyes narrowed. "Has anyone been here before? Were these always here or did they… did they grow out of the ground and cause all that shaking?" She peered down at the base of the nearest spire, trying to get a feel for its structure.
