Onward Random Adventures

???: Land of Mystery

*Ian's POV*

I feel like I'm laying on grass as I begin to have my senses return, with the opening of the eyes I see this field with trees that are thick and in the distance a storm could be made out lightning flashing.

Ian: What? This place feels... strange.

This place is unlike any place I've been, till now it felt normal nothing out of the ordinary. But this place, I don't know what to speak I sense magic everywhere and it is strong as well.

Then I look behind me to see Barley unconscious, heaving a sigh of relief I get back on my feet and walk over to him.

Ian: Barley hey wake up, we are in a new place.

With a few taps and some words he stirred in his slumber but he eventually woke up, seeing me he immediately got up and hugged me tightly.

Barley: You never disappoint Iandore Lightfoot, but where are we now?

I tap him again after my breath was cut off, he chuckles and released me as once more I take in fresh air.

Barley: Sorry, I just never get disappointed at how you are able to swiftly and easily use magic now.

Ian: Thanks for the compliment, but really where are we?

Barley immediately takes a look at the surrounding area, after a minute he stares back to me.

Barley: Your question is as good as mine, I can only guess that we are in the next dimension for our adventure.

Ian: A very strange one indeed...

Barley seems to be confused at what I mean by that, I sigh and proceed to tell him what I mean.

Ian: This place has magic flowing from every crevice, this place is filled with nothing but magic... I can sense it everywhere.

I just close my eyes feeling the magic in this area flowing freely as if it has a mind of its own, the spell book glows faintly in this place so I assume it also senses the massive quantities of magic...

Barley: I want to be honest with you Ian, the fight with the Snow Shogun was tricky and hard indeed. This could actually be a great chance!

He paced back and forth as I just stand there wondering what on earth is my brother going on about now.

Ian: Barley, what are you going on about?

Barley: What I'm going on about? We can use this time to sharpen our skills through training and after the fact we can be even more prepared for what fate may throw at us next!

Barley actually has a very good point, this place seems to be filled with magic that I can possibly use to better my skills with magic and train to better my offense and defense attributes or skills.

Ian: That is a great idea, I'm all in on the idea cause we could of met our end in the previous dimension...

Barley: Well I'm glad to hear that you are in agreement on the idea brother, but now we have to explore for a bit and determine where we can train.

He gestures for me to follow and I stay close behind him as we begin traveling around these parts, this area fascinates me like this is the only place we have been thus far to have magic flowing freely here...

As we are walking I could of sworn that my Heart's Fire is reacting to this place, it's as if my soul resonates with this place...

Ian: Barley can I ask you a question?

Barley: What would it be?

Ian: Do you ever get a feeling that when you are at an unknown place all of a sudden your heart feels like it is at home?
