Event Log (Finding the Cure)

[plungeintofire]

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.

[What the actual what???? Namur starts laughing, hard enough he gets little tears in the corners of his eyes.]

Dude! Talkin' 'bout the riddle! Ain't no way I'm eatin' none a this shit, 's been dead for years, an' I like my fish still kickin' me in the gut after I swallowed 'em! Can't y' read none? Look, says that on Wednesday, Tom an' Joe went t' a li'l joint an' ate dinner. When they's done they paid for the food an' left, but it weren't Tom or Joe that paid for it. Question is, who done it? An' look, the answers is Wednesday, Tom, Joe, an' Murphy. Think I'mma go with Murphy even tho he weren't mentioned.

[A quick glance at the screen would show that Namur has it very wrong. The riddle doesn't say on Wednesday, it says that Wednesday, Tom and Joe went to the restaurant.

But Namur's made up his mind, and lifts the remote up close to the tv to make sure the signal will go through. If Abel is quick enough to solve the riddle, he'd better stop Namur fast.]

All right, calm down young man! Let me read the riddle first, and give me some time before I can figure out the answers. Let me handle it, perhaps I have an answer. Just...let go of the remote, plz?

[The priest held his wrist to pry the remote out of his hands, to get control of the remote, so that the priest can take his time figure out the answer to the riddle.]
