Arriving in Kithika is unpleasant for the most part. Transport through the glass vessel deposits you in the middle of a thick and murky swamp, with air so hot and humid it feels as though one is breathing through a wet towel. This is a place of perpetual night and there are no celestial bodies visible overhead through the twisted vines to break up the blackness, making the only light visible that which comes clumps of marsh fungus that emit a steady glow in a variety of muted colours: pale blue, whitish green, watery mauve. The only other light comes from those who can generate it themselves and that will reveal numerous broad-leaved trees, in some places standing too thick to move through. Below, knee-deep water laps in swirls at their legs, accompanied by the occasional slithery feel of something moving in the bracken against wet limbs, gone before it can be identified. A variety of strange noises from creatures of the swamp fill the air with buzzing and hoarse croaking, interrupted by the screech of mosquitoes the size of hummingbirds darting past and hungry for a meal.

OOC NOTE: Characters will not be able to progress past the Temple and the Grounds for 48 IC hours after which point, the way to continue onward to find the dragon will be discovered. The second log will be posted on the 17th, to help spread out the tagging. Thank you!

( she doesn't know what to make of it. she's as used to sentient vegetation as a person can be, but the screams are ... both new and horrible. she shudders, trying to rid her head of the sound.

when she sees kal, she smiles softly and takes the offered earplugs. she lays a hand on his shoulder, then points up at the sky and shakes her head, letting him know that the way through isn't up.

then she floats a little ways away from him and shrugs, spreads her hands. she's only found ways that haven't worked, so far. )
andaway: ([Are you okay])

[Kal shrugs, agreeing. Apparently the trees don't really like him trying to sneak away by flying. And he isn't naive enough to refuse to harm nature when it's actually attacking him in ways that hurt him, but making his way through it is actually slowing him down quite a bit.

He makes two of his fingers 'walk' in the palm in his hand and then he points down, trying to ask if her maybe simply walking would be a better option.

( she doesn't look particularly thrilled about it, but eventually diana nods. she glances over her shoulder, once, and then around in front of them. the maneuverable passes through the trees are few and far between, but when she finds a promising one she points it out to him.

keeping direction is another hard point; if they can't get up high enough, how will they know they haven't turned around? but she starts walking with purpose, anyway. )
andaway: (A song to remember a song to forget)

[Kal lands besides her with a little smile. It might come across as weird having someone Clark's age and with his experience seek for the reassurance of his friends, but he's spent so much time in this place without Diana it's simply a relief to have her here. He had for a few months, yes- but she didn't even know who he was, he never had the friendship he and his Diana share.]

Can you hear me? [He says, not yelling but definitely loud.] Otherwise this walk might be kind of awkward.
