Druid Sabina of the Psychic Leap (#9341)

Owner: 0x9eaC…6a1b

Entry 1: Druid Sabina has been tasked with a special secret mission: to bring plants alive. Alive as in being able to move and follow commands. This mission came from the Dotta and Elf personally, the 2 Head Wizards that lead the High Council of Runiverse. A flying message had flown into her window at midnight requiring Sabina to authenticate her magic signature to prove she was the rightful recipient. She had heard of such message transmissions before, but those were normally reserved for the upmost confidential communications. Who could need to send her such a high priority message?

Once Sabina authenticated the flying message, it flamed up and the still glowing ashes formed the message, “Druid Sabina of Psychic Leap, come through the portal for we have a mission for you. Should you not choose to accept, there will be no consequence. Let’s speak face to face. Signed, Dotta and Elf”. The glowing ashes dulled and fell to the ground, but a portal appeared from the ashes! To be able to craft a complex spell like a portal inside of another magic spell (the flying message) requires skill and capability that left little doubt that the message truly originated from Head Wizards Dotta and Elf.

If the two highest powers of the Runiverse summons you, would you dare turn down the offer to meet? Sabina took a few deep breaths, calmed her mind and stepped into the portal. This was her first time walking into a portal. While portals were not a forbidden art, only the wizards with great magical control could control them properly thus use was limited. Those wizards only used them when necessary. Sabina has heard stories about portals and the disorientation after that. However, she found herself stepping into an unfamiliar room in her next step. It was like she had simply walked through her door into this room. Fascinating!

While her mind adjusted to the new surroundings, she noticed three people in the room. Not two.

“Welcome Sabina! We appreciate you taking the trip to come and meet with us. I am Head Wizard Dotta and this is Head Wizard Elf. You can just call us Dotta and Elf. You can drop the titles with us here. I assume you already know Wizard #9930? He has spoken highly of you. Come and take a seat. Cup of Kakou tea?” Sabina took a seat at the table, smiled stiffly and gently shook her head “Not necessary, thank you.” She did know Wizard #9930. He is the High Wizard of all Runiverse Forests, but much more so, he was an informal mentor of hers, guiding her Druid journey.

Dotta continued “Well then, I apologize for inviting here in the middle of night with no prior notice. It is important that we keep this matter on a need-to-know basis only. Ready?” “We want you to research on how to bring plants alive.” Dotta left those words hanging in the air.

Sabina sat shocked in her seat. A million thoughts ran through her head. None of the three High Wizards were saying anything more to explain. Sensing discomfort from her wizard, Carrie, Sabina’s Swamp Bullfrog familiar, hopped out unto Sabina’s lap to calm her. “Isn’t that … one of the forbidden paths? We can’t bring the forest to life, they already have life in their own way. ……. To even bridge them into forest lifeforms will surely be an abomination! Why will the council even consider such a thing! Isn’t the High Council suppose to prevent such things from happening in the first place?” Sabina blurted out.

All three High Wizards continued to look directly at Sabina. Elf and Baird still have not said a word. After a minute of tense silence, Dotta said, “Let me tell you a story.”
