Re: [Zorolo]UZ's training thread!
(OOC: Allright, didn't go totally overboard this time, only 608 words. I've always said my biggest problem was in description, so this might not be the best work I've done. I still like it.)

“Wait, rest? You mean like sleep rest? YEEHAW!” screamed UZ, overcome with joy. It had been quite a long day, and rest was sounding pretty good at that moment. Quickly, UZ followed Zorlo to a large hallway with a small sign on the wall reading “new students.” The door they stopped in front of was rather small compared to the other doors in the hallway, some being almost as tall as the dragon he had fought before. This door was only a good 5 feet tall, and any good sized human would have much trouble using it. The door was a dark orange stained wood with small specks of gold in it. There was no handle on it, just a small sign where a handle would normally be reading “push.” In small green letters near the top, it read “UZ.” “I could really get used to this Dome thing” thought UZ as he followed the sign and pushed the door in. To his surprise, the door didn’t open, but turned with the floor, like a revolving door, in toward the room.
The room itself was one of the most beautiful things UZ had ever seen. It was almost how he had dreamed his eventual home would look like. It measured around 50 square feet total, with a 7 foot high ceiling, plenty of room for stretching (unless you happened to be one of the taller species) and was completely green. Not green with paint or wallpaper, mind you, but green with vines. The entire room was built like a small jungle. Vines and leaves covered the walls, which themselves were composed of jutted rock, and the floor was essentially a bed of grass covered in leaves. A slight dampness seemed to cover the room as well, coming from a small pond slightly off the center of the room. UZ noticed small red and purple fish species he couldn’t identify darting through the waters of the pond. Starting on the far left side of the room, stretching towards the door and covering almost half the room was a large moss covered rocky hill structure next to one of the more pillow-like sections of vine, obviously meant to be where UZ would sleep and lounge. The rock was quite smooth, was warm to the touch and had just a slight feel of grain to it when rubbed. “It’d be a perfect place for any guests I have to lounge,” thought UZ to himself.
On the north side of the room was a bookcase carved into the wall, already filled with hundreds of books about fighting, magic, life and music. The right side of the room had hooks on it where 2 classical and steel string guitars, both dark crimson red in color, were hanging, above a miniature jet black grand piano. UZ slinked over to it and found it to be perfectly in tune, much to his delight. Also present were an accordion and small collection of harmonicas on a shelf next to the Piano. Picking one up, he said “Heh, they’re all tuned in A. My favorite key. You guys are funny.” On another shelf next to the door was a collection of small glowing orbs labeled as “recording orbs.” No furniture was present besides the obvious step-like portions of the rock, and a few large hammock-like leaves stretching between one of the corners of the room. The leaves were quite thick and looked as if they could support a good deal of weight if they needed to. The overwhelming color of dark-green filled the room with a luscious lively feeling.
“Wow.” UZ said, in awe. “So… now what?”
