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!

Peter could only nod. He had a fair point about the energy burn. Tech was still tech, after all. And even Tony Stark's suits needed to run on something. He'd read up on enough of Tony's - or at least, his Tony's - papers and research to understand how a good chunk of it worked.

"Alas, no. No web-slinging. Upon discovering that the trees bleed some kind of acid sap when touched and that was eating my webs, I suddenly remembered that legs can be used for more than kicking baddies in the face."

He shrugged at his own comment in a sort of 'who knew?' gesture. "Also, my ears thank you for your demonstration. I'll happily go deaf in the name of justice and freedom." No he wouldn't. He'd web Tony's blasters. "But y'know, I've always wondered. Ammo-wise, on a scale of 1 to 10, how unlimited is the rest of your stock?"

Tony's technology was impressive, but it wasn't perfect. And as great as the upgraded power of the R.T. was, he wasn't about to run it down trying to blast his way through the swamp only to need full power when he reached his goal. It wasn't the best way to go about anything.

"Maybe they just think you taste good," Tony quipped. He, like Peter, was taking their forced hike with a dry sense of humor. That's how it usually went with these situations. They made jokes because they couldn't do a whole lot other than joke or give up. "And you get used to the noise. I'll spare your delicate ears for now, but if we get a break, I'm not making any promises."

If he could figure out a way to avoid the trees long enough to get out of their reach, he would blast his way through just for that. Unfortunately that just hadn't happened.

"I'm on the 'not' end of unlimited, but as long as I have time to rest up, repulsors won't run out. Hard ammunition is mostly full--I tried a few shots earlier, but didn't get very far."

Mostly he got more screaming.

"But I won't run out that fast. Why? You expecting company?"
