WHO: OPEN
WHEN: 6/7
WHERE: Salduba Ruins, Attleton
WHAT: Dungeon crawl for a miracle cure herb requested by a sickly young girl. Hunt for it and keep it or hunt for it and turn it in for monies! (or anyone who just wants to explore a ruin)
Once the directions to the Salduba Ruins in Attleton were acquired, it took almost half the day to actually reach said ruins. Located well outside of any kind of civilization, the ruins appeared to have been once been an old foreste keep - thick vines and moss cover the high walls, though the ground is uneven, cracked in places- parts of the keep itself collapsed from attacks and one can presume, as series of earthquakes. Though nature is clearly attempting to reclaim the area over what has been built and left in this place, there are two obvious entrances to the Keep - one on the South wall and one on the North; A high arched doorway that leads into what's left of the building proper.
Once inside the keep the air will feel, smell and taste dusty and stale through minimal circulation - there's no lighting to guide your way, and the restless sound of footsteps - man or animal (or perhaps manimal). The hall branches off towards the eastern and western side of the Keep, both paths leading towards the upper and lower floors and the heart of the keep in question. But the Keep though abandoned by its original owners, is not entirely empty - one may encounter bandits, or even hostile creatures; not only that, but the halls and rooms are not the safest any longer. Each room may be booby trapped, either by the new residents or the old, and those traps may trigger at the slightest provocation. However, if you're lucky enough to survive, you might find treasures to reward your curiosity.
[ OOC: Tag into any of the four locations to explore~! Feel free to threadjack or team up with others joining in. But be caaaaaaaaareful~ ]

How'd you manage trigger the defenses anyway?
no subject
[ As for how she managed to trigger that one.. ]
There are some tricky things in here, and not all the triggers are the same. That one was a pressure-sensitive trigger, if I'm not mistaken. They can be tricky if you don't know the sensor pattern. Though usually if you charge through everything fast enough and with the right reflexes and a team, you can get out of most things easily.
[ Though right now she didn't seem to have a team, but.. well, if she got stuck she had a whole other set of skills now than back in her original adventuring days. ]
I'm amazed there are things like this in Genessia though! I was worried it was going to be like my world used to be.
[ Honestly, she sounds way to ecstatic about nearly getting killed.. ]
no subject
I know what you mean. It's like that for our guild almost every day too. [ Although back home it was considerably leaning more towards the dangerous than the fun. Friggin demons. She has to laugh at the latter though. Charging through things sounds like the kind of thing they'd do. ]
But we really don't know what we can expect in a place like this. [ Still, wandering around in this place alone would make her worry about the other girl, so. ] Natsu and I came to try to find that herb - if you like, you can come with us.
[ Because she collects people like pokemon apparently. Also.. ]
What was your world like anyway?
no subject
[He's genuinely impressed though that mention of teams does make him look over behind the girl.]
But I don't see any team with you this time. They fall behind or something?
[Lucy could ask the normal questions.]
Hope you don't mind me jumping in? Otherwise PM me and I'll delete :)
Hearing the commotion near by (had someone set off a trap), he thought it the perfect time to make his ~grand entrance~.]
Hahahaha~ Fear not! For I, the beautiful and powerful Dark Adonis, am here to aid in your quest!
[He had yet to realise the situation was well under control already.]
no subject
[ That guy comes barging in and Nanana looks over at him curiously. ]
Are you a friend of theirs, Dark Adonis-san?
[ It seems like quite the party is forming here. Well, assuming that he's with them, Nanana will just continuing answering the questions and act like his arrival isn't some kind of huge event. ]
I'm from a place called Nanae Island. I helped build it. Before that, it was just a regular place with no adventure left and everyone just telling you that you had to be a lawyer or a doctor.. so I found some funds and me and six others built Nanae Island. It's a place for people to go to school for whatever it is they want to be, and.. well, there are plenty of other things to do for people who want adventure too.
[ That was a somewhat cryptic explanation, but one of her rules is that she can't give out information about that unless specifically asked. ]
Of course, I've been bound to a room for a while so my 'world' has mostly been video games and pudding until I landed here.

[All the characters will feel a slight chill moving through them, as though someone had just passed right by.]
Welcome to the madness, O Adonis :D
Ahh - we-well, all right. You're welcome to join us too..! [Odd fellow that. ]
I'm Lucy - and this is my partner, Natsu. [ She added, for the benefit of both newcomers. First step to a good party outing is introductions, right? She glanced at Nanana then. ]
W..really? That's.. why were yo- [ She stopped short as a sudden chill ran through her, and at the sudden voice she automatically squeaked, grabbing onto Natsu's arm. Instinct, that. ]
What was that..!? [ Or rather -WHO- ]
welcome welcome~
Nah this weird guy ain't with us.
[Then Lucy introduced them and he nodded before tensing up when that voice reached his ears. Lucy got the best idea it seemed judging by how she was suddenly hanging on to his arm.]
That voice didn't sound normal. I think we should move. Now.
Why thank you~ *bows*
It is a pleasure to meet you all. [He looked over to Nanana at that point.] Although I do not think I caught your name?
[He was about to object to the 'weird guy' comment, when he heard that voice echoing around them. Although he kept the cool demeanour, his eyes narrowed, focusing on the hall around them.]
Agreed, so long as we are not being goaded into a trap.
Yeees. 8D Our madness is your madness now..
[ She sounded too excited about that despite how creepy it was. It's not that it isn't possible to scare her or anything like that, just..
Well, if it's a ghost, it kind of loses its punchline with her.
The chill was definitely new for her to experience though. ]
What do you guys think it is? We should all make a bet before we run into it, winner gets a quarter of everyone else's share of whatever treasure we find on top of the girl's herbs.
[ That'll make it more interesting. ]
