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!

[He was certainly an intolerable little hipster in all other ways. Probably.

He flipped upside down again.]

Pepperoni pizza is worth a few mysterious little legs.
backwordscompatible: (I'll catch up)

I'll remember that if we ever go out for a slice sometime.

[His apparent habit of not staying very still--or right-side up--for very long was oddly amusing to her. She had friends who were just as fidgety. Could never stay still. Honestly, there were times when she couldn't, either.]

How's the view from up there? Tell me you at least see an end in sight.
spideyfanone: (science)

[personal profile] spideyfanone 2014-02-19 03:09 am (UTC)(link)
Trees are pretty dense, but I'll keep moving? If I can spot an out I can come back and port people the rest of the way.
backwordscompatible: (Interested)

[personal profile] backwordscompatible 2014-02-19 07:53 pm (UTC)(link)
You take the high road, I'll take the low road?
spideyfanone: (surprise)

[personal profile] spideyfanone 2014-02-20 04:54 am (UTC)(link)
And you'll get to Scotland afore me? ...I, uh, don't think the low road is a good choice in that instance. Unless you're cool with fairies.
backwordscompatible: (he wanted to party okay)

[personal profile] backwordscompatible 2014-02-20 05:01 am (UTC)(link)
Scotland, England...I don't care if it takes me back over the rainbow, so long as I get out of this swamp.

...well, I live next door to a Tooth Fairie. Are they anything like her?
spideyfanone: (disconcerted)

[personal profile] spideyfanone 2014-02-20 05:20 am (UTC)(link)
I should just never assume anything. Someday I'll get that into my head.

[He just liked weird music, and anything accompanied by bagpipes is definitely under that heading. Of course he'd end up talking to someone who knew actual fairies.]
backwordscompatible: (proud)

[personal profile] backwordscompatible 2014-02-20 05:22 am (UTC)(link)
Works for me.

[Surprise?]

Any other pearls of wisdom I should know about before we split up?

spideyfanone: (cheery)

[personal profile] spideyfanone 2014-02-20 05:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Nah, I got nothing. If I do find a way out I'll try and pop back for people, though. So... later.
backwordscompatible: (On the move)

[personal profile] backwordscompatible 2014-02-20 06:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Later.

Stay safe, alright? {Or try to]
spideyfanone: (cheery)

[personal profile] spideyfanone 2014-02-21 02:44 am (UTC)(link)
No worries. I probably wouldn't even taste good. Main danger is probably being beaten up by a tree, and I'd just be embarrassed.
backwordscompatible: (new girl)

[personal profile] backwordscompatible 2014-02-21 02:51 am (UTC)(link)
Even so. Best not to give them any ideas.
spideyfanone: (dislike)

[personal profile] spideyfanone 2014-02-21 02:52 am (UTC)(link)
Okay, I'll give it a shot. You watch for, I don't know, swampipede monsters or whatever.
backwordscompatible: (just like home (except not))

[personal profile] backwordscompatible 2014-02-21 02:55 am (UTC)(link)
Not if I can help it.

[And with that last quip, she heads off, trudging and sending the occasional warning glare upward. Just in case.]
