[The comm clicks on to the sound of running water. Odette sounds decidedly distressed.]

Please! I need help. I'm in the forest, by the water. Please someone! Help me!

OOC: Odette's found injured!Phoenix. And since she's a swan, she's pretty much useless in getting him help. Maia's got dibs on finding them first \o7

[Maia normally isn't the kind of person to help someone unless there's something in it for her - of course, find someone desperate enough, and there will always be something in it for her.

And Odette sounds plenty desperate at the moment.

Maia's already visited the forest before, and with the image of that location in her mind, it takes little effort to simply teleport herself there.]

You said you needed hel--

[Maia pauses as she finally catches sight of who she's to be "helping."]

Well, isn't this an interesting turn of events?

[ecopiracy]

[Again, there's no response from Phoenix, beyond another convulsive shiver. Even half-submerged by water, it's obvious something is very wrong. There's blood in his hair, on the side of his face, and his skin is pale, leeched of color and warmth. He's still breathing, though his lips are turning blue. That last sign might be difficult to see in the very faint forest light.]

[Odette is beginning to wonder if anyone's heard her. Or if they just can't be bothered enough to care. That is until Maia appears. The swan lifts her head. Thank goodness someone finally arrived. She gets up.]

Please, would you help me?

[solittleeffort]

[Maia grins. This could be very interesting.]

That depends. What is his life worth to you?
