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!

"Seems kind of rude to try and scare up one of the Valar like a level nine wizard with delusions of grandeur. Though I guess he probably wouldn't mind too much." Yeah, he knew his esoteric Tolkien theories and obtuse and largely useless Dungeons and Dragons details. God, this was surreal. But awesome. And he almost didn't mind the evil tree thing anymore. He was sure it wasn't personal or anything, and wet feet weren't the end of the world. He'd have dealt with a lot worse for this conversation. With Spider-man. He barely fought off the urge to fall into stunned babbling again.

"Y'know, I think I'm gonna have to leave the summoning to someone else. Just in case. And also because I'm totally a level seven rogue, not a wizard."

He couldn't help himself; Spidey liked this kid. They spoke the same language, they understood each other's references- and bounced off of them. It was great! He wasn't the only total nerd on the turtle, and that was automatically exciting.

So weird, but he was really only able to keep talking by acting blase about it. "I have a couple levels of rogue, but D&D really doesn't have a techie class. I did once customize a fighter in pathfinder to be the mechanic on the crew, but I think I broke my DM when I sent her a fighter with an intelligence of eighteen." He smiled at the memory. He'd been too much of a social pariah to have anyone to play with in person, but online... Well, something to do between attempting mad science in his parents' lab and following super hero exploits with wild energy. "Now if we're talking Shadowrun, I'm more of a technopathic decker..."
