{Data Stream 16} - A well-deserved rest

[hisoldgirl]

[so! there's this really cool forest on the ship now, and it's full of really cool little creatures and stuff. awesome.

too bad the TARDIS doesn't care.

she's actually more interested in the forest itself than its inhabitants and has found herself a quiet, secluded area in which to sit. the place reminds her of her own forests from which she is

[look, it's another black mage! in dark robes and a rather traditional black mage hat with a wide brim and flimsy top] What do you think it might mean, TARDIS?

/threadhops, let me know if not okay D=

[redpaperfan]

[ It's a white mage! To counteract all the, uh, blackness. ]

I'd be interested in hearing as well.

Threadhopping is always and forever fine by me~

[looks up at both men curiously, then goes back to the stars] I have been scanning my databanks for relevant information in regards to separated lovers. Based on the knowledge of both Ganymede and Orion being human, I have relegated my search to Earth literature, as I doubt the riddle would involve the Great Beasts of Niknasten. As such, I am wondering if perhaps it deals with stories of the sun and moon.

Have you any idea?

The sun and moon... That's an interesting idea! I was just guessing it might be a play on words somehow. Like...space kinda fits, but not exactly.

[Donna found a wand on her first trip into the forest and decided to keep ahold of it in case it came in handy. She's now wearing a light green garment which looks somewhere between a dress and a robe and a small diamond tiara.]

It sounds like a riddle. Why would he give us a riddle to figure out?

[hisoldgirl]

Ganymede is particularly fond of such things I have found. [looks up at Donna and nods] You are familiar with stories of separated lovers, perhaps?

[shoutsforearth]

[smiles ruefully] Hardly. I never used to be that much of a great reader, not before I met the Doctor, anyway. [well, unless trashy paperback novels count, but she guesses that they probably don't.]

[hisoldgirl]

He tends not to travel with many intellectuals, unfortunately. You seem clever enough, though.

As far as I can tell, this is the "challenge" we're supposed to enjoy.

...where are you? I don't think I've come across that place while exploring?

[hisoldgirl]

It is certainly a better challenge than some we have had to endure in this place.

It is a ways off from the lift, between the point where two archer statues once stood. I cannot give you exact coordinates, but it is possible to get here by following the main path and the leftmost branch when it forks into threes.

[dawnward]

I would have to agree with you. It's...nice, in its own way.

I think I may visit it. I'm looking for where the captain left part of his suit as well.

[hisoldgirl]

I enjoy riddles, so yes, it is somewhat pleasant.

I was attempting to inspect the same when I found this area. It reminds me of my forests and so I stopped. Should you require assistance hunting Ganymede, however, I am available.
