Hoarfrost Out in her clearing, Hoarfrost moves through spreading seed for a flock of a dispersant birds. Some native to the forest others from climates fare away, other still so rare that no one else from the Scavanerlands likely to even know they exist. There are held in no cage with no incentive to stay. Still the monastery that hides in this forest stays knowing its safe from the world beyond.

The witch whistles as she works. Stepping carefully around the birds thar crowd around exited for the next wave of seed to be tossed. "No need to fight there is plenty." She scolds as if they can hear. Given the way the stop crowding maybe they do.

Rishi "You are being so good with the animals." Rishi's voice comes from above her. Looking up, she can see Rishi perched in the tree, next to the hammock she strung up there. She steps off the tree limb, her wings opening slightly so she simply floats down, and smiles at Frosty. "How are you being this day?"
Hoarfrost The birds skitter back and swack loudly in protest to what they see as a much larger bird fluttering down from the trees above. Only moving back once its is clear Rishi is not after them or their meal. "It is a passion. One I have perhaps neglected a little of late." Hoarfrost lets the basket hang at her side from a strap and dusts off her hands. Moving in for a hug if Rishi permits it. "I am good I am glad to see you!" joy ringing clear in her voice. "I was actually hoping to show you something."
Rishi Rishi always welcomes the hug, smiling warmly. "It is most nice to be seeing you as well." She headtilts , looking at Frosty. "What are you wanting to show me?"
Hoarfrost Hoarfrost takes a step back and focuses. Silver essence glowing around her body. The shape changes though less than the whole of it. The bottom half of her body growing, shifting into another shape. Another set of legs form and its clear what has happened. From the waist down she the lithe figure of the unicorn form is. A much more modest horn rising from her forehead and matching ears. "I think I have finally done as you have." She smiles wide. "What do you think?"
Rishi Rishi beams and gives Frosty another hug! "It is most perfect for you! I am very proud that you have learned this technique!" She pulls back and walks around, looking Frosty's new form over. "Yes, I am most impressed. How are you doing with applying the changes from your other forms? Have you tried this yet?"
Hoarfrost She manages to blush only a little as Rishi circles to examine her. Her tail flicking back and forth. Hooves a little pensive as they paw at the ground a little, at least till she gets the compliments. A bit of relief going through both parts of her. "I have not managed tha yet though I have mastered changing my shape in more subtle ways. Well perhaps subtle is a misnomer ..." taking in a deep breath she focuses. With out the silver light this time she shirks a few inches "I can do more than that I even- well I can change lots of things as long as its roughly the same shape."
Rishi Rishi steps back a moment, then blinks. "I had not really considered that. I like how I have my body now, but...hrm. Being able to change myself in that way, without having to physically mold myself, would be useful." She headtilts again. "Do you feel like it gives you a ...deeper sense of your own body, being able to simply ....alter it in that way?"
Hoarfrost The centaur turns once in place before settling into the snow. Like a cat finding a soft spot to lay. She nods toying with her hair a little. "It lets me try things, experiment. Yet my body remembers what it was and can shift back with hardly any effort. I ... when Luna found me they helped me with a few of the issues I had with my form, made it more true. I always wondered why she did not make me as I hoped to be entirely, I think now though she was telling me to figure it out myself." She chuckles.
Rishi Rishi sits next to her and starts stroking her flank. "When the Ever Changing One appearred to me, I had changed myself and the society had told me that I must be doing it again, but "properly" this time. They appeared to me after I had resolved to say "No." and gave unto me the power to help others and to make yet more improvements to myself. But...After they supported my choice, I had not thought about making further changes to it...at least not so quickly." She smiles. "But there are always the more things to be learning."
	 "As we are getting ready to deal with that cult, I thought that a better weapon might be of more use for myself." She stands up and walks around to where Frosty can see her well. "So, I explored the woods and turned my will upon them and uncovered this secret." She says a series of words in old realm as her hands twist and gnarl up into massive wooden claws. "Behond, the Claws of the Wood Dragon!"
Hoarfrost "It seems a little different for everyone." Smiling just thinking of Luna. Her horse half leaning into the pets and Rishi a bit. "I had saved a winter wolf pup from a group of guild poachers. I tried to bring it back to its pack. Crossing through the forest as a mortal, carrying a pup the size of a normal wolf, still bloody from my escape from where they kept it." Hoarfrost takes a deep breath. The moment still makes her heart race. "I think I have always had a knack for bringing folk back to their families." Reaching a caring hand to the other Lunar and brushing a hand against her cheek.

"A new spell? Excellent I have one as well!" she seems ecstatic. She hops up onto hr hooves as well. Waiting from a safe distance. Some part of her remembering the damage Ammie caused to the forest last time she tried to demonstrate the strength, but her excitement to see it over rides her good sense to ask. "Fascinating! I had no idea we could turn into plant matter ... or at least perhaps its because of the spell. How much stronger does it make you?"

Rishi "It is most definitely because of the spell. It was well known in Ysyr, but I did not have the chance to be learning it." Rishi flexes the large paws. "Not then anyway. Much of Sorcery is about taking the nature of one thing and giving it to another, when it is not about summoning the help of another being. Calling upon the great dragon of wood and giving the nature of her paws to my own hands is something of a combination of the two ideas." At Frosty's question, Rishi headtilts, looking at them. "...I am not being entirely sure." She looks around. "Do you have anything you don't mind me trying to slice up?"
Hoarfrost "Half a click to the south is a frozen river and waterfall. It will not hut if you cut that up." Turning and offering Rishi a ride if she so desires. Happy to run full force through her forest. Knowing every step well enough to not worry about turning a heal. For the distance wasn't short the trip is over too quickly and she comes to a stop not far from a waterfall not shorter than twenty feet tall. The river frozen at at least ten foot wide. "Will this do?"
Rishi Rishi is careful climbing on Frosty's back, all the moreso because of her massive wooden paws. Eventually she just shrugs and extends another set of arms to climb up. She is careful duing the ride and only grips Frosty about the waist.
	 When you arrive, Rishi hops down and nods, "This should be most perfect, yes." Her face is showing a blush under her fur, so she must have found the ride rather ...intense. 

	 Rishi walks over to the waterfall and first simply tries to slice down it with the massive bramble claws, cutting out chunks with what looks to be surprising ease. Rishi steps back and lunges forwards doing a slash and ripping out another chunk of the waterfall. "...They seem to be working most well. Though...hmmm... I am feeling something about them. I think that I may..." And under her gaze the massive paws thorny claws extend out becoming longer and ...pointier. With another stab, Rishi leaves a smaller, but much deeper hole in the ice. Rishi smiles, "Yes, it seems we can be reshaping the Claws even after we are forming them."
Hoarfrost There is more than a little pride in her step as Rishi disembarks from her back. The centaur gives a little sashay. "I have been wanting to do let loose like that for a while." Hardly even needing to catch her breath. Noticing the blush but not at all sure what it could be about. Simply tilting her head in confusion. Though she has to admit to herself she rather likes making others blush for once.

Watching the display she nods. "Wonderful they strike very powerfully. Despite their wooden nature not seeming to dull at all." Water slowly drizzles from the deep holes, some part of the river still alike despite the cold. "What else can you shape it into?"

Rishi "Let us find out." Over the course of several minutes, Rishi releases a long bramble covered vine from the paws, enlarges them into something that looks more akin to a shield, makes the claws large and heavy like a cleaver, forms them into big, heavy macelike fists, and finally just extends them out into smething that looks almost like a thorn spear. She smiles "...Yes, these do seem like they shall be most fun." Then she turns back to Frosty "You said that you are having the new spell as well?"
Hoarfrost Hoarfrost watches with amazement as Rishi changes the claw many many times. Forming it into what ever tool in needs. She almost doesn't hear Rishi so focused on taking note of the transformations. Almost like she is making plans in her head. "Ah-yes sorry. Nothing as impressive as making my body into a weapon or even half as flashy." Holding her hands together she begins to encant the spell. Its quick she hardly focusing on gathering motes at all. Then ... nothing for a moment. Nothing at all seems to happen. A creature apperates before Rishi, six winged creature of mist and ice. Eyes glowing with magic. In Hoarfrost's own voice it speaks. "You gave me an idea for a spell to send messages over great distances. I called in a favor and a old friend taught me this spell." As it finishes speaking it vanishes once more.
Rishi And now it is Rishi's turn to look awed, and them happy! "No, no. This spell...it is most amazing! The Infallable Messenger is the way that the sorcerers of Ysyr coordinate everything that they they do. It will let us call our allies to this fight that we are having!" She runs over to give Frosty a big hug, almost forgetting about her giant claws but keeping them out of the way at the last moment and only hugging with her lower arms. "Please say that you shall be teaching me this spell."
Hoarfrost Without even flinching at the impending danger claws Hoarfrost returns the hug. "That was my hope, that such a spell could aid us. Before ... I did not have much reason to call out to others now though." She looks bashful and rests her ehad in the crook of the other woman's neck. Happy to have people she loves so much in her life again. "Of course I will teach you. Everything I know is yours to have as well." Giving a little nuzzle.
Rishi Rishi leans into the hug, holding her. "...I once felt the same way. It is why I did not try to bring the spell with me when I left. Now though..." She gives Frosty a little squeeze. "Now I have people. Friends. ...Loves." Rishi simply holds the other woman for a little while. "And you know that everything I know...everything I am, I would be giving to you or Ammy. All you must do is to be asking me."
Hoarfrost "It is a good thing, fate, or Luna guided us all together." Warm and happy in the other's arms, holding her as close as she can. "It sounds like we where all so lonely." Echoes of that loneliness heard in her voice. She shivers for a moment but not from the cold. "Then together the three of us, will know more than any one else, and have all of the secrets of sorcery in no time." She grins hungry for knowledge and more than exited to have a partner to study with.
