I've got a DT thread up now!! ummm... yeah...here's a link :lol: post692157.html#p692157
Plot:
Two orphans, theives and friends are fleeing from their tribe in the land of Analara as a result of being caught stealing from the empress Carolina. After the empress' son, Marroe, enrages one of the two companions, she is holding a sword against Marroe's throat. A guard walks in just then, and their offense is punashable by banishment, but the one caught assulting the Emporor's son is punishable by death. The two flee, carrying only their weapons, clothes and two black cloaks. They steal to the shadows.Turns out that they aren't the only wrong-doers in Analara. Along the way meet other banished children and scarred teenagers that have escaped the wrath of the Empress for their own reasons. This is only the beginning. They band together, although not all get along well, and fight the elements and make seperate camps within the area of a strange circular stream they find. Here, they are hidden from all of Analara for the stream is unkown to the rest. They work in vain to keep it that way. There are other threats. Strange creatures that nobody has before seen in Analara are constantly finding the camp, tearing it apart and terrorizing its inhabinats. They eventually will become the most feared tribes in all of the land and are plotting against the queen.

About Analara and the Empress's family:
Here, the Empresses are in charge. They will marry up to 20 husbands and have had up to 1000 "little husbands." However, Empress Carolina has only one husband and twelve "little husbands." She finds that her husband, Emporor Torrius runs off with his servants, but she pays it no mind. He also had a few children that were not the Empress's, but they are treated as only servants. Carolina despises them all, but her husband insists they be allowed at leaste some advantages. Rules are strict and life for the poor is tragic. The Empress of Analara hates the poor, and she makes their lives difficult as possible. Everybody has a different tribe depending on physical appearance, skin tone is a major difference to the Empress. She often sets fire to a whole tribal village in an effort to clear room for her Barons. (the rich and powerful). Most of Analara is smothered in trees and mountains, though there is one dessert. They have many rivers and one in particular that 'The Tribe' find. A small, circular strea. It has no end and no beginning, hence being a circle. Nobody understands how the water remains flowing, but it does...and it flows fast .

Gender: Male.

Powers (If you choose to have them): The sight. Can see small parts of the future, like glimpses of it really or just a strong sense of danger. Never a full on vision or a very strong one.

Alright! Time to start!

AnnaRose

They had been wandering around the forest aimlessly for what seemed like hours. Glancing at Han she knew they couldn't stop and go back. She would end up dead and Han would end up in prison or deported.
She clutched her sword tightly, gazing around the forest in search of a place to stay the night. Nowhere seemed suitable. Everything made her jump, the wind in the leaves, the sound of a bird taking flight. She was jumpy, and for good reason. If the guards got hold of them...
"What about there?" Han asked, breaking into her thoughts. He was pointing at a willow tree. "We could sleep under the branches and make a shelter tomorrow."
Rose nodded, unsure of what to say.
Guuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuurl.

Han Fang-Liu:

Rose seemed distracted as we walked through the forest. We'd been wandering around for hours. She jumped. I chuckled and then abruptly stopped. We were on the run, of course she was jumpy. I know I was too.

Suddenly I spotted a willow tree and was hit with a strong sense of safety. My lips quirked. It seemed like a good place to stop and rest for the night.

"What about there?" I asked in a low voice. I pointed towards the willow, Rose followed my gaze. "We could sleep under the branches and make a shelter tomorrow."

She nodded and I lead the way over to the tree. It was quiet here in the forest. A wonderful change compared to the city....and my horrid father. I sighed and pulled some of the long, thin branches apart so Rose could walk through.

I looked around, making sure we weren't being watched or anything and then followed her through the foliage and into the safety of the tree's embrace. I smiled, that sense of safety growing stronger.

"We'll be safe here for a few days, at least," I murmured.

AnnaRose

AnnaRose sighed and sank to the ground. It was a little damp, but not wet enough to be of any bother. She felt horrible, it was her fault Han was in this mess. She had been the one to suggest they steal from his half-brother in the first place. She had also been the one holding the blade the the Prince's throat.

Han sat down beside her and sighed. Rose avoided all possible eye-contact. She was swarming with guilt and fear. This was the one time she was in danger of actually being caught. She had been imprisoned once, and guess who sprang her?

"I'm so sorry you had to end up here," she whispered, yawning. She leaned against the willow tree and waited for a reply.
Guuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuurl.
