Re: Caving
Kobal remains still as the Earth Captain speaks, but he bows his head as the spirits approach, though not low enough that he can't keep watch on them, in case the spirits show any attacking intent.
The spirits are attired in strange clothes, which seems to fit them loosely and flow about them, or perhaps that is because they seem only to have a tenuous manifestation in this mundane plane, sometimes appearing to shift back into the spirit world.
The female spirit seems to wear a dress of some nature, with long sleeves and a hem that reaches to her ankles, but composed of strips rather than one piece, some wide, some as thin as twigs and slim branches, some seem to flow about her body as she moves, others appear fixed in place. About her throat is a necklace of some stones Kobal has not seen the like before. Some whitish, some a glossy grey, the stones are roughly round, yet have very thick ridges evenly around them.
The male spirit is similarly dressed, yet arrayed behind his neck and head is a display of what look like spines, like those at the back of some lizards of the wastes. Instead of a necklace, on his head rests a strange helmet - if it is a helmet; Kobal can't tell what it's made of - with a peaked corner at the front, but which then curves up and down as it rises over the back of the man's head.
Seeing that Emesh-Ga's words appear to have pacified the spirits, he quietly gives his thanks, knowing that the Captain will hear even such whispered words. "Lord, thank you for your intervention for our sake."
As the spirits address Ohanzee, apparently no longer so angry, Kobal bows his head lower, more respectfully, and raises his fist, still clutching his javelins, over his heart.
Why does Ohanzee always cause this kind of trouble?! Instead of voicing his thoughts, he says during a pause in the talk, "Wise Ones, forgive our trespass. We meant no harm. As the Lord Emesh-Ga has said, we are friends of the waters. The spirit of the serpent told us of a path that lead us to this place." He keeps his words brief as the spirits seem more interested in the Rhino brave.
