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 let out an over-dramatic sigh. "In which case, I have to blame the nerd in me that's telling my brain 'ents are friendly and harmless.' It needs to stop overriding the 'Danger Will Robinson' bit."

On another note, he was somewhat beside himself with May's reference to ents. It just sort of proves to him that she's really his daughter. Or- Older Him's daughter. Whatever.

"You know, I remember the ents being friendly, but not harmless. They helped kick Saruman's butt big time." Yes, she's going to point that out while they're in the middle of an evil swamp.

Her amazing spider-powers weren't the only thing she got from her dad; there was a reason her mom put her in sports young, and it had to do with being 'well rounded'. Or in other words, so her daughter wouldn't completely take the same path as Peter.

"Okay, point. But Treebeard didn't go on auto-attack when Pippin and Merry climbed up his side."

He was grinning under the mask. The way this conversation was going, he really wanted to believe that it meant some of the awkwardness between them had started to melt away. Sure, it could've also meant that they were just covering it up with nerdy conversation, but for once Peter wanted to take the optimistic route.

"You got me there. Then again, these are more like the huorns than ents, so we both lose."

Peter may have been having worries that it was just awkwardness being covered up, but May's actively trying to patch things up. And considering Peter's pretty much the same person (with a few decades give or take) as her dad, some topics are better than others to help with that.

"Do you want to give the evil trees a try? I figure if I lead the way, and you keep close, we just might get somewhere without anyone getting swatted."
