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!

'She's lying,' Monet hisses back, a half-beat too quickly, eyes moving between Leo, Guido, and the other her. 'I'm a telepath, I have the capability, but I wouldn't -'

'You wouldn't?' The mirror-her smiles. 'What about Mordo? What life is he living?'

'He'll be dead before he knows!' she shouts, fists clenching. 'He tried to kill Father, he had it coming!'

Perhaps the most disturbing thing to Leonardo is how quickly Monet's lost her composure. As long as he's known her up until this very moment, she's been cool, calculating; radiating an undertone of danger and intelligence with every word she spoke. This is different. He doesn't understand what's going on or who these people are, but he gets very quickly that this is something personal. Something that cuts deep enough to get this kind of reaction out of her.

He's never heard the name 'Mordo' before, and it seems to slash into one of those personal scars in Monet - but frankly, it doesn't matter to him right now. Not nearly so much as the immediate threat.

"I'm asking one more time: who are you?"

The other one turns towards him, smiling cruelly. 'Isn't it obvious?' she says. 'I'm the one in control.'

With a cry of rage, Monet flies at her, swinging wildly. She rebuffs every motion, they have the same fighting style: each move and countermove is anticipated perfectly. It's a grotesque stalemate, and there's no sound besides the thud or fist on flesh.

Leonardo moves in sync with Monet, his feet hitting the floor the second she flies forward to attack. For a few seconds, a minute, maybe more, he watches the fight progress, circling them so that each exchange of attack and block are in full view.

The problem is obvious within moments. This fight is going nowhere.

Leo watches closely as he circles, studying every movement he can until - there. An opening, a breath's pause in the stalemate. He sprints forward and launches into the air without a second of hesitation, aiming a kick straight at the purple-cloaked Monet's chest.
