Meanwhile, Doelcm kept climbing the tree. Eventhough the flames were dying, Erk was still in danger. She reached the top of the tree and was met by a very suprised, and smoky-smelling, Erk. Before he could say anything, Doelcm said, "Come on, I can open up spaces in the tree, so you can climb down." On the way down, she explained what her power was, as far as she could tell.
"Since atoms have the electrons spinning around them, there's a lot of empty space in them. I think what I am doing is moving the subatomic particles closer to each other, creating space."
"Weird... but cool. And now I can shoot fire out of my hands. I don't know how yet."
The rest of the way down, they were silent, contemplating.

on the way down, Erk and Doelcm met Emiko. She had just woken up, and was trying to figure out where she was as well

Aria floated to Erk, Doelcm, and Emiko. She knew that they needed to stick together in order to find their way around this strange world. She could only assume that Mithrandir would soon join them

Erk shook himself off, getting all the accumulated ash out of his hair as they began to walk. After satisfying himself with the quality of his hair, he looked back down at his hands. His palms seemed to be glowing with a slight redish-orangish color. Curious, he stepped several feet away from the group and aimed his hand in front of him, willing fire out of his hands. Instantly, a jet of flame shot out of his hand, and he jerked back with a yelp, instantly cutting off the flow.

Erk cautiously extended his hand again, looking at it. It was quickly fading from a bright glow back to it's dull glow earlier. Curious now, Erk once again extended his hand and pointed it at a branch hanging a few feet from him. Willing the flame to flow from his hand again, he concentrated. Once again, a jet of flame flew from his hand, landing on the branch and igniting it. With a smile of wonder on his face, Erk closed his hand and the flow ceased.

Seeing Erk experimenting with his powers, Doelcm decided to see what all she could do. She picked up a rock thought about it's atoms, imagining the particles moving closer together. As she watched, the rock, originally filling her palm, shrank to the size of a quarter.
She next tried expanding it and became the size of a basketball. She smiled and tossed her "ball" behind her.

Aria smiled. She decided to see how high she could go. She flew above the tree tops. Higher and higher she went until her friends were like ants on the ground below her. She looked around her and saw the wonderful sights of the world as far as the eye could see.

"So, we seem to have developed some . . . interesting . . . abilities. Fire, weather, flights, size control, what in interesting combination. So, why can we do this, and where are we going?"

"Hey! I see people up ahead!" Dolecm exclaimed. "Let's see if they can tell us anything. But we'll have to be subtle. We don't want to look like outsiders if we can help it."

emiko had been sitting there wondering what her power could be since everyone else seemed to have one. suddenly, emiko had an isight as to what these people would expect, and what some of the rituals in the land were, without even meeting any of the people.

Erk began to walk forward heading toward the people. Unsure what would happen if he raised his hands, he didn't wave, but continued walking over to them.

As Erk was walking forward, Mithrandir went up to join him. After all, his power was just that he could mess with the weather, that wasn't likely to be as obvious as flying or fire or changing the size of things, so he could go up and not freak the people out. He was just as curious as to what was going on as the others.

As Erk approached, he noticed that the people ahead seemed to be moving a little stiffly. Were they made out of wood, too? As he got closer, he could see that, no, they weren't made out of wood, but simply were wearing wooden armor.

Mithrandir leaned over and whispered to Erk: "Be sure you can control that power. I'm not sure how well the fire stuff would go over in this place. After all, everything is made of wood, you are their worst nightmare."

"Certainly seems that way. I'll just, you know, keep my hands down."
