[3rd artes:] [Event:] Finding the cure quest in Attleton // locked to replicascion

[jadedkill]

Who: Jade and Luke
What: Jade brings Luke to the amusement park for his healing and to save the rest of the town to be awesome heroes for the win
When: Event week
Where: Attleton

Jade explored the amusement park searching the wells on the first day. He managed to find a few, but they were so sparsely spread out, that he probably couldn't find them all on the first trek. At the end of the day, he went back to the inn in Fayren where he stayed with Luke.

However, he did documented some of the hidden well's locations on his phone for reference. He had a hunch that there are some wells cleverely well hidden throughout the park that hasn't been discovered.

On the second day, he brought Luke to the park with him to start yet another trek to discover and search more of the hidden wells.

# 1: The Attleton Amb-rose-ia

[OOC: We can combined prompt one with the other prompts available on this one.]

Jade won the key to the well's cover with Ted on day one, so there is no need for him to ride the roller coasters. However, he might as well bring Luke here to have a drink, before going off to find the other hidden wells. The roller coaster that goes in and out of the castle is still functional.

"Thankfully, you don't have to ride that. I have the key to the well." He said to Luke when they're standing in front of the castle.

Luke's sight had been getting steadily worse to the point that making things out was quite difficult, especially in low lighting.

With the information Jade had discovered, he was all to happy to follow him to the amusement park to fix whatever it was he had that was causing him to lose his sight.

"It' would probably be fun in a different situation."

He could somewhat make out the shape of the coaster as he did his best to look around the park.

[jadedkill]

Jade eyed the roller coaster that goes in and under of the castle. It's still functioning.

"It would be cruel of me to put you on that." He said, teasing. Still, knowing what to do, Jade lead his friend past the castle gate and then to the roller coaster area, but not to lead Luke on the ride, but to the door to the treasure room where the well is.

"The castle isn't anything like the palace back home, that is for sure."

[replicascion]

Luke followed, hating that fact that he was pretty much useless in these endeavors thanks to his sight...or lack of it.

"A lot is different here."

He stayed close as he tried to discern his surroundings in the lower light of the treasure room.

[jadedkill]

"That is for sure. And with the park abandoned, lacking the crew, we have to be careful."

In the treasure room, there is many fake gold coins with the paint being peeled off, treasure chests being littered, and a broken down animatronic dragon guarding the treasure.

Jade lead Luke to the well. "Here we are. Have a drink." Jade used the key to put into the padlock of the well's cover and open it. Jade lift the cover, and there is still a bioluminescence glow in the water's depth. Meaning not much people discover it.

"Go ahead and have a drink. It might be on a bitter side."

[replicascion]

Drinking from odd wells really didn't seem to be the best idea, especially in such a place, but he trusted Jade and used his hand to cup some of the glowing water.

The taste was a bit bitter and the face he made upon drinking it showed that. He didn't even dare ask what was in the water as he honestly didn't want to know.

"They could have at least made it taste decent..."

[jadedkill]

"Well, it's a medicinal water. It works for me, as I regain my sense of feeling back. So I can't complain."

Jade observed Luke curiously.

"Do you feel any better, any different?" If not, they have to search for more wells.

[OOC: If we ever fall short of the tag requirement on this thread, we can combine another prompt with the other two on this one. We shall see.]

Jade has heard of the famous fairy ziplining ride that is situated on top of a hill, so Jade brought Luke here. The well is easy to access, but it's right down at the bottom of the hill, and the way to get down there? Riding down the line.

Hopefully, Luke isn't scared of heights, despite his blurry vision.

[replicascion]

His vision was slowly getting better after the first two wells, but it still had a ways to go. As for heights thankfully he wasn't afraid of them. Even still he wasn't sure that the zipline in question was that safe considering the condition of the rest of the park.

"Are you sure this thing is going to hold?"

[jadedkill]

Jade check the mechanism of the pulleys, the cables, and the line first, and then the harness.

"It seems sturdy to me. I had seen other people use it, and they made it with no problems. Considering this ride is popular, I would say it hold."

Unhooking the straps, "All right. Come over here and I'll help you put this on. And then I'll put it on for myself."

[replicascion]

Luke was still a bit skeptical about the whole thing but he just sighed and moved to allow Jade to possibly strap him in to a death trap.

"If I die I'm going to haunt you..."

[jadedkill]

"...hmph." Luke, you trumped the Colonel in the sarcasm department. He has to take a pause because he's...

He's holding back his laughter. Give him a few moments to gain back his usually cool composure.

"Now, now Luke. It's my job to make sure that won't happen." Jade said, as he puts the harness and strap around his arms and chest, and buckled the locks in secure and tight. It's a good thing that Luke's vision is a blurred and while Jade is behind him, he's...smiling. A genuine one.

When he double check and tripled check that that harness is secure to the cable, Jade began to put his own on. At least the fairy wings that fluttered at the back of the harness is...a nice touch to say the least.

"Don't go yet, until I put mine on and when I count to three."

[replicascion]

If Luke could have seen that he'd never let him live it down. After all when was he able to actually break that cold façade that Jade always wore.

He nodded though as he waited for Jade to strap himself in, still unsure about the whole thing.

#3: The Purpleurum

[jadedkill]

[OOC: If we fall short of the tag required, we can combine this prompt with another prompt available on this one.]

Jade discovered the well from the Lolipop mazed with Bracken from yesterday. The two destructive mages had destroyed a bit of the maze, having cleared a portion of the path to the well, but for the latter bit of the maze that is still intact, to get to the well and find it, that requires a bit of a walk.

[replicascion]

Luke could actually see enough to notice the destruction and looked at Jade.

"I'm guessing this is partially your doing?"

He smirked a bit knowing that Jade could get a bit carried away at times.

[jadedkill]

Jade put his hands in his pockets and observed this maze with an amused and yet feeling a sense of misery. He hoped he remember the path to the well. He remembered most of it.

"Yes, pretty much. The kid that I found, he's a powerful mage. But over time, he got scared and stopped, so it's not completely destroyed. Just some of the areas."

With a small sigh, "Well, shall we? Its a bit of a walk, but I think I remembered most of the path." And took the lead forward through the corridor of colored lollipop hell.

[replicascion]

"I'm honestly not surprised."

He followed Jade as they made their way through the rubble. He was definitely thankful that he could see a bit better as it was easier to maneuver around some of the more trickier parts.

"Are you sure you know where you are going?"

[jadedkill]

"If I take a pause every now and then, and try to remember the path, then yes. I think so."

Of course, the problem is, Jade forgot to leave a path yesterday due to his frustration with Bracken nervousness and being lost multiple times with him. And also Bracken was nervous whenever Jade cast his artes. However, Jade learn to find the exit quickly by watching the sun set, the shadows fell, but it's mostly trial and error.

"Thankfully, it wasn't that big, and I brought food with us."

But after some thought, he realized he's with Luke and not with Bracken.

"Luke, I was wondering. Are you accustomed being with me during battle? Because if my patience run short, we'll just use our artes to blow our way through to the exit. After all, I think your artes skills are getting rather rusty.~"

[replicascion]

He was still convinced they were lost and would be for awhile. As for being used to what Jade could do in battle, they'd definitely been through their fair share together.

"Yeah, and this place will allow you to do that?"

Though he frowned a bit at the skills comment.

"It's not my fault that I can't control a hyper resonance fully...I didn't exactly have that much training with it."

#4: The Faster Aster

[jadedkill]

[OOC: Jade experienced none of these yet. So if we fall short of the tag requirement, I'll just combine it with another prompt on a single thread.]

Jade heard of a well that is by the train station, so he brought Luke to the train station. Problem is, all the trains are broken and not running. It should look pretty easy...if Jade can figure out which train tracks would lead to it. Jade is reading the map on the wall, but the map isn't that all helpful, due to being faded out and much of the words and sentences has been washed out by the rain in the past.

"I hope you're not tired Luke. If you feel sleepy, I did bring some coffee."

Jade is carrying food, snacks, and drinks in his rucksack, as journeying around the amusement park can be tiring, being on their feet all day.

#4: The Faster Aster

[replicascion]

Luke's eyesight had drastically improved with each well they found and was nearly back to full working order. There was just a bit of blurriness left as he followed Jade to the train tracks.

He had no knowledge of the place either so finding the well was definitely going to be a chore for the both of them.

"Huh, uh..I'm actually a bit hungry."

They had been out for a bit and he hadn't eaten much before hand.

[jadedkill]

Jade continues to study the map, and memorize the details of the numbers on the trains. Which one of the lanes lead to the well, he wondered.

"You are? What would you like? I have sandwiches and coffee."

[replicascion]

His stomach gave a slight growl as he laughed a bit.

"A sandwich would be fine. What about you?"

They had both not eaten in awhile and he guessed they could take a slight break from their quest.

[jadedkill]

Picking up the hint, as they had been at this all day and since this morning. They trekked through a maze for the entire afternoon, which take far longer than the previous quests.

"All right. Do you want to sit down somewhere to rest?"

There's a bench near-by. It was old and the wood has long been faded with paint peeled off. Jade took a sit on that and searched through his knapsack.

[replicascion]

"A break will probably be good honestly."

He moved to sit next to Jade and stretched a bit. It had definitely been a long day.
