Event Log (Finding the Cure)
Welcome to Happy Heights!
Attleton's premier amusement park!
Or at least it used to be.
Attleton's mayor has mentioned the unfortunate only access point to the items needed to make the tonic that will cure the tragic sense-depriving infection that's going around. They'd thought the disease was gone, so they hadn't bothered to maintain the area, but the wells are Happy Heights are the only place that's still going down to the aquifer. They could drill down but-- well, they don't have time for that before the disease really sets into permanence! The number of freak incidences and the decrepit state of the theme park will make it difficult to maneuver, but they've notified the electric company to turn the power on so that people can navigate their way through the park in order to gather the ingredients to make the cure.
Unfortunately, since it's been so long since the park's been opened, rain water and nature have all but wiped the park's map into illegibility. You're on your own for exploration and it's time to find at least four wells from different parts of the park. There are many, but none are a walk in the park to get to! They used to be part of a collection game kids could play when they came into the park.
The mayor warns everyone that the cure is incredibly sensitive to sunlight and oxygenation from the atmosphere- by the time a person can get four, the first extracted water will have their bioluminescence diminished. (And going to that park in the dark... it's too dangerous, he wouldn't recommend it!) It probably won't make it out of the park, so drink it right away! Good luck!
OOC NOTES: There will be different areas listed for different flowers that have soaked into the wishing wells' aquifer. Each area will have a couple of different scenarios you can play out- you're responsible for playing them out and you're welcome to have a blast with whatever you want to do! If you don't want to play it out but you did play sensory deprivation, feel free to handwave your character getting a cure, but remember: If you manage to have at least four different threads with 10 comments from your character, your character will receive an Attleton Charm ICly and for 'exceptionally valiant efforts' in eliminating the disease. (3 month prize claim limit puts this prize available until Dec. 21st.) To claim a charm, click here. Good luck!
Don't forget: If your character tampers with any of the things that are set up to get access to wells except when stated, the ride may explode or collapse, cutting off the well. Pretty unstable park, you know.
If your character wants to explore more of the park than where the wells are, they're more than welcome to. Feel free to make your own thread if you just want to have your character playing on any rides or doing things that they want- get creative, have fun, but the only areas with wells are those listed.
no subject
He still didn't want to move out of the way, terrified of watching Abel zip away only to suddenly fall. As he reluctantly stepped back, he stood tensely, wide-eyed, kind of hoping that Abel would change his mind and they could just walk around and do things the slow way.
no subject
Giving Bracken the thumbs up, but nope, Abel choose to blitz through. He sprinted, make a leap, and at the sound of the pulley rotating fiercely, Abel zipped through, as if he is fly down, down, down the hill, until he disappeared through the trees.
Leaving behind Bracken alone for the next 15 minutes, waiting for any sign that the Father made it down the hill.
no subject
It took him a while, but he finally took out his device and a quiet, "H-Hello?" came out.
no subject
There is no answer for the next five minutes. But that because for the past few minutes, Abel has to endure the wet part of the ride where there is water gushing out like geysers from the hidden grates on the floor.
Then he has to unhook the harness off himself and shake himself dry, but he is very wet.
But he found the well.
Abel took out his phone and call Bracken.
"Hallo? Bracken? I'm here. I'm at bottom of the hill. I found it! The well."
no subject
Then he got a reply. There was a great sense of relief, and he let out a sigh.
"A-Are you okay?"
no subject
Hey, at least the well is found. Mission accomplished. It doesn't have to take two to find one.
no subject
They only had so much time to gather the cure. Even Bracken had some sense of urgency, even when he wanted to proceed with care.
Finally, he answered.
"I... I'll come down."
He really didn't like it, but if Abel made it hopefully that meant he would be safe, too. He got himself hooked up, checked his harness several times, and stood by the edge with his fingers clinging hard to his line. Finally, he closed his eyes and lifted up his legs, curling up and hanging on for dear life as he started to fall.
no subject
Just when he's about to climb up the hill, Abel stopped and returned back to the well, the end point of the zipping line, where he supposedly will meet Bracken eventually. "Okay." At that, Abel waited for him patiently. The ride takes about 15 minutes approximately, to complete it's course.
Abel failed to mention of the shooting icy cold water geysers that comes out of the hidden grates about 3/4 down the journey, but Bracken will figure that out eventually, right?
no subject
He didn't even know when he was getting to the end because his eyes were squeezed shut.
no subject
Poor Bracken, Abel heard him and his screams. The mage kid must be quite terrified of the heights, the speed, and the sheer terror of speeding down the cable while being gushed by the ice cold water of the geysers.
But for some reason, the priest find Bracken's ordeal utterly hilarious that he kept a snigger to himself.
He waited patiently until Bracken appeared out of the trees, completely drenched from his trip, and with a hard abrupt stop, Bracken came to the halt at the end of the line.
And that's where the priest came over quick to undo the harness while calming him.
"Bracken, you made it!"
no subject
He shivered by it, warming and drying himself.
"Wh-Why was it wet?"
no subject
At least a well is found, and Abel already drank some for his own benefit. He left it open for Bracken to collect the water.
"It's a hidden mechanism under the grates." Abel said, as he unhooked the harness and undo the buckles to set Bracken free. The fire helps warm them up, drying them. "I think the idea is to spray at the water at the passenger whenever they are riding down the hill."
Tilting his head, concern, "Are you all right though? You don't feel dizzy or have any sense of vertigo?"
no subject
All that adrenaline pumping through him and being shot through the sky certainly hadn't done wonders for a stomach. It was a good thing that he didn't need to drink the water himself, he might not have been able to keep it down.
He might have looked a bit pale as he stumbled forward and fumbled with the thermos to get more water from the well.
no subject
"Okay, that's nausea. That would pass over once you take a rest. Just sit down and take a rest."
Abel waited for him to gather the water, and when he's done, Abel closed the well's cover and locked it to protect the medicine's essence from sunlight and other environmental exposure. Once the lid is sealed, Abel found a stump nearby in which he took Bracken's arm to have him sit on it.
"Well done and good work. I think we're on our way closer to help save the town."
no subject
"The... The whole t-town needs saved?" he murmured from his seat.
no subject
"I won't rest until the whole entire town is saved. You don't have to do it. Personally, this is my mission and I volunteered myself to help save the town. I know some people are affected, but they're not strong enough to journey around the park and play their games to find the wells. You know, I do it...for people who can't help themselves."
no subject
He did like to help, that was just so many people. He didn't know what he could do. It was hard enough trying to get some back to Katze. Had he been selfish, just thinking of his boyfriend and not paying attention to the fact that so many people needed it? He didn't live in this archway, and hadn't really visited, so he didn't know much about what was happening.
no subject
True, the park contains the tonic to cure people, but it's not safe as most of the rides are unstable, and who knows what kind of criminals and monsters are lurking around in this place. The priest searched his backpack for his bottle of water, but he has a spare and offers one to Bracken.
"Here, have a drink. Don't be dehydrated."
