zenzetra marched across the vast and rocky plains of the valley. the heat came down on him like a plasma spell.
sweat poured from his brow as each step brought him closer to the end, but closer to collapsing.
"the spirits are strong here... they mock me with this horrid heat."
still zenzetra continued on. forward and farther into the valley. untill at last he couldn't take it and sat down on a nearby rock.
"i dont ever remember it being this hot anywhere on gaia before..."
perhaps someone will happen by eventually...

ooc: sure.. i feel loffed now...
ic:
zenzetra stood once more. "i can not wait for the living when the dead waive there baners."
he trugged through tall grasses and sweet smelling air. occasionaly the wind picked up enough to slow him but he still pressed on. "this realy... it's nothing. i am an explorer... i've been through worse conditions."
then he sat again. "maybe the spirits are aiming for me."
with that zenzetra took out a string of dark red beads and held them between his index and middle finger on each hand while folding the last two finders on each hand over.
he chanted a sutra and stood up and walked easily. the heat and wind seemed to work around him. the grasses knelt at his whim.
"indeed it is the spirits who deter me..."

after many days of endless walking zenzetra had finnaly found a sign of reliefe.
"ah! just ahead!"
he ran forward and reached the edge of the vast hot valley.
a hill ran up into a cliff wall. "i can finnaly get some air."
zenzetra began to climb. he rose up among the rocky craggs of the mountain wall. the spirits urged him to discontinue proceding. they tugged at him gently but still seemed to have the upper hand.
zenzetra struggled a bit to get up over the cliff wall. he strained with each breath he got closer to the top, but also closer to falling back down tword the grassy plains. by this time the fall might have a great effect on him. he urged himself on trying not to think about falling to the ground, which may cause his death. (or at the very least a broken appendege.)
it took him five minutes to reach the top. all he needed to do was pull himself up to his feet and walk away from the valley forever. the spirits became restless and pulled at him violently. zenzetra staggered and fell a ways but caught himself barely.
he strained a little more. "Please spirits, leave me alone." then he pulled himself over the rocky walls of the valley. he lay motionless for a long time. not a sound stirred from his lips. his entire body sweating like mad.
he then closed his eyes and fell off into a deep sleep. "i've finnaly made it..."
(ooc: this is the end of this *ehm* "episode" im going to continue in another area.)
