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!

"Ruins means artifacts, usually of notable potency." Naugus' ears have only now started to cautiously lift from their pasted-back position, probably due to him realizing he can't hear so well over all the ringing still going on in his skull. "Perhaps...I shall spend a little time poking about for just that."

Or for however much longer he can stand this dump. Unlike the other two, Naugus is not much for down-and-dirty expeditions, stuff that ends up with mud in his boots and concerns over how the hell these mosquitoes got so big in the first place. Frustrated that sheer firepower (literally) was a no-go plan, at least when the flora is concerned, Naugus personally hopes these ruins will be a little more interesting, a little more fruitful.

"The place sings with dark magicks. It's seeped into every stone, every-" The wizard stops short suddenly, eyes going wide like he'd just heard or felt something shocking. Then he melts into shadow, literally. He just sinks into the darkness at his feet. There is the fleeting movement of an indistinct shadow slithering hastily away on the ground, towards some crumbled ruins that don't seem of any particular note. And then, moments later, it zips back, rising upwards and taking the form of the mage once more. He looks downright gleeful. Like he found something amazing.

"My opinion of this realm has completely changed. COMPLETELY. I found something from my zone! From where I came from!"
