Lead the way!
Umbra picks up the other half and leads Surge to a palm tree. He then sets his half down to take out a bedspread from his bag and lay it out underneath in a dry area. He then picks his half of Tueor up again.
"Right. We're gonna gently lower him down onto this."
Alright simple enough. *gets ready to follow suit whenever umbra starts to lower Tueor down*

If you need anything you can ask me.
"I'm not sure how to say...
I've... Appeared in storms since my experiment.
My race, called the Aera, was making technology to cross... Planes of physics. Dimensions, that is.
We were suffering plagues and warmongering invaders kept us from escaping our world.
There was.... A storm, I think, and it must have... Destroyed the gate I went through when I offered myself as a test."
//
[6:34:02 PM] AmateReksu: My idea was that, in their experimentation with dimensional travel, the Aerans sent people through gates they'd create.
[6:36:09 PM] AmateReksu: When Nihalla volunteered to try, a VERY powerful storm brewed up, and both the electrical charge in the air and that the portal gate was struck by lightning severed Niha's physical form from her consciousness, and anchored her to be attracted to locations of heavy electrical charge... In the form of weather, that is.
[6:37:43 PM] AmateReksu: But because Aera had VERY fierce storms, the likes of which couldn't be measured by our F-scale (just try to imagine an average storm being an F-5 hurricane to us, and to THEM the storm that fucked up the experiment was a freak force of nature, far more powerful than their own F-5 euivalent)
[6:38:17 PM] AmateReksu: She'd need a concentration of that much charge around to fully physically pass through dimensions.
[6:38:32 PM] AmateReksu: Otherwise she seems to be there but has no physical presence.
In explaining to someone else. Niha's physical body is technically in limbo.
Where is my brain I meant Category. F-scale is for tornadoes.

also most of here have some similar stories to you, mine isn't nearly as interesting as most, but i'm interesting in other ways.

okay i guess i should let you rest, before i explain something about me, you'd learn even if i didn't anyways.

well, i guess we'll miss you when the storm stops and well i guess what i wanted to tell you isn't relevant now since you won't be here long enough for it to be important.
