DUNGEON LOG: KEYSTONE SHORE

[phantasmods]

The morning of the 9th, everyone will get a message sent to their communication devices -

Okay, guys! I think we have enough stabilizers to try and get the shoreline stable. If you want to help out, grab your supplies and come on up to the roof!

When characters arrive at the roof, they'll find Top - with a wheeling table full of many copies of the same odd-looking device - the two exploratory drones, and a ramp down off the roof to the ground. (The latter looks a little hastily constructed.)

"Okay," Top says, picking up one of the devices. "Here's the stabilizers. Stick them to walls and stuff - mostly out of the way places where they're not going to get knocked off - and then press the buttons along the side."

They demonstrate, unfolding the set of legs at one end of the device before showing the buttons to anyone who's close enough. "Go ahead and take a couple, especially if you've got one of those space-saving inventories going on, I know there's like four of you with those? Strange got some first aid kits together, too, if you want."

Sure enough, another table nearby has the med kits... As well as traditional paper bag lunches, courtesy of Bottom. Don't question it too much.

"We'll be staying back here to keep track of the stabilization progress and work the drones," Top says, "but don't hesitate to call if you get in trouble! We'll send one of these guys down to get you an evac if you need it."

And with that, you're free to go down the ramp... Or to make for the beach however else you might choose to go.

I've been out here a couple times before, but they were fairly short trips. I've never really stayed long enough to explore before.

[The beach is coming into view as they round the cliff, giving them a bird's eye view of the waves crashing against the sand.]

Here's your opportunity to! Well- as long as you would like to, anyways.

It's an exciting opportunity. Especially since Up-san has managed to perfect the personal stabilizer.

[riderofcharlemagne]

Stabilizer? Why'd you need that?

[foolishjustice]

I have some senses ordinary humans don't. One of them was quite aggravated by the way the Fissures affect reality, and spending any amount of time inside them was giving me a headache.

[riderofcharlemagne]

Ouch. [He winces slightly.] I had no idea you were in pain when we met.

[foolishjustice]

I didn't want to bother people by bringing it up when there was likely nothing anyone could do. It's fine now, though. My past couple excursions into the Fissure have been to help perfect something that keeps the damage from reaching my senses.

It wouldn't have been a bother, you know? Ah, but I'm glad it's no longer an issue now.
