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!

"Or maybe they just don't like the dirt here," Hawke adds with a smirk. "We can speculate all we want but at the moment it's just that." Without any real information to go on they're all just fumbling around in the dark hoping to stumble across something.

"I've been all over these ground and I haven't found anything special." Clearly wishing pools, magic statues, and trees that provide magical weapons don't quite as special. "Well, except for him." Hawke points to Notch who barks happily at the mention.

"Was he just wandering the grounds?" Sabriel asked. She hadn't seen a living creature in the temple beyond the other foreigners so far.
iwannabeadragon: (I'm sorry was that your dog?)

"Actually I found him locked in a box around here of all places. Don't ask me how he got there." Though he'll likely bring this up with the emperor when this is all over. He would like to know just how his dog got stuck inside a box inside a bottle that represents death.

"Just glad I found him first otherwise someone around here would be missing some fingers."

"Is he a guard dog, or just not particularly friendly," And given the boxes seem to have been placed in the temple a long time ago, how had it survived long enough for its owner to arrive and free it? More questions Sabriel doubted she'd ever find an answer to.

"He's friendly enough, mostly he's just hungry." Notch barks again, wagging his tiny tail furiously. It makes Hawke smile, even with all the weirdness surrounding them at the moment. His dog is something familiar and right now familiar is nice.

"Feed him and he's a perfect gentleman."
