Open Log

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~ ]

[...yeah, no, he's not going to eat any of those mushrooms. he doesn't quite realize the state laharl has gotten himself into yet, so he's simply looking around the room. hazama places his hand on the wall, feeling the stone for anything worthwhile.

but he does glance back to look at everyone, then at the chest.]


Soooo I hate to be such a poor sport, but should you really be stabbing at everything? Just saying, don't have to listen to me, but it might help.

[ This is why Zeref's diet on Tenroujima consisted almost exclusively of monster meat, and whatever wild fruits and berries he managed to scrounge up before his magic turned them into petrified mush. Lesson number one of living in the wild: Never, ever eat mushrooms if you don't know what they are.

While Laharl started living out a bad 1970's music video, Zeref took a closer look at the room. He really didn't trust those chains. ]


This appeared to be a dungeon, or perhaps even a torture or sacrificial chamber.

[ Odd place for a chest, unless it wasn't placed here by its original inhabitants. ]

Laharl made it through, so I doubt this room is trapped. [ Zeref kneels down, examining one of the bones. Too big for a human's. ] These bones are old. Whatever this room was used for, it's not being used anymore.

[When things get trippy, Laharl just groans and flings his sword over his shoulder, chest and all. Doesn't seem to be weighing him down any either. He will, also just chuck the rest of the mushroom because the last thing he needed was Mr. Fluffernutters lecturing him on time tables.]

Gee thanks for your concern with the traps. So... I can't really... see much at the moment, so I'm gonna have to rely on sounds for now.

My guess is that this place is a combination of both. A lot of demon summoning rituals involve the sacrifice of a tortured soul, so, why not combine the two rooms into one. More economical.

[He just shrugs, turning and looking about... three inches to Hazama's right.]

How else was I supposed to break it open? Ask it nicely?

[ So the poison of the mushroom caused blindness, then? Interesting. She'd have to remember that for later.

She shook her head. Sad, but she'd make do. At least he could hear. ]


Whatever this place was used for, somebody else uses it now.

[ To Laharl- ] Since you can't see, there's not much point in you taking... point. [ Mavis you didn't even mean to make that pun. ] I'll lead then, since I'm already dead. [ You know, nothing's going to kill her.

She makes her way to the next door - no objections now - and gives it a quick lookover. Assuming it's not obviously trapped, she'll just... open it. No use beating around the bush. ]
deathsought: (☠ be honest inside)

[ Zeref frowns at Laharl, before turning away and heading towards Mavis. Well, if that was Laharl's chance to impress Zeref, he blew it, big time. He almost doesn't even care what's in the chest; he sensed nothing particularly magical coming from inside of it, so assuming it's not a trap (just watch it be one of these things), it's nothing Zeref would be interested in anyway. ]

I'll be right behind you, then. [ Who knows if Laharl or their 'curious explorer' could resist Death Magic, anyway. At least he knows for a fact Mavis wouldn't be effected by it. ]

And I shall cover the rear!

[...that might not be the best idea but hey, he's going for it anyway.]

[Laharl will just sort of grumble along behind, occasionally bumping into walls, which he then punches hard enough to leave small craters.]

Augh... how long is this thing supposed to last...?
