DUNGEON LOG: AMESTA FOREST
Hello everyone!
Up and the others think that we have enough stabilizers ready for the next expedition! We're going to the forest to the south this time, but it shouldn't be too far for anyone to walk. If you're REALLY going to complain, you can talk to Top on the roof and catch a ride on one of the drones like before.
The scenery's really nice, but there's definitely some kind of magical effect going on in there - as far as we can tell, the day doesn't progress inside the forest. It's stuck a little while after sunset - probably when the Fissure first appeared? (°ヘ°)
Be careful out there! Don't be afraid to call for help if you need it and we'll send a drone your way! o(^▽^)o And Strange says no stupid stunts this time, got it? (;¬д¬)
You'll probably see a big tree on your way there, before you're under the cover of the forest! That's the Infinity Tree, it's a really big willow. Charm can probably tell you more about the mythology if you're interested. He's gonna meet you guys there at the end of the expedition, so try to work your way in that direction as you go!
(。・ω・。)ノ See you when you get back!
After Down's message, characters will find things set up much the way they were last time on the roof. Top is making last-minute adjustments to the drones, and there's tables with food and medical supplies set out - the latter a little sparse compared to last time, so hopefully you kept your first aid kits from before. The table of stabilizers, on the other hand, is much more full.
On your way, you might also see some of what the construction drones have been putting together so noisily these last few days - there's the metal shell of a building, similar to but smaller than the Station, to the immediate west, just off your path to the forest in the distance. Nothing much indicates its function as of yet, though there are significantly more windows.
To the southwest stretches the border of Amesta Forest - about a mile distant, though still easily within sight. As promised, the Infinity Tree sticks up from the far edge, easily visible for those who need a landmark either now or later in the dungeon. If you get lost, you can probably find your way up a tree somewhere to get a perspective on it, and which direction to head in.
The silver mist doesn't begin until some distance into the forest, the time of day gradually changing to the eternal twilight mentioned as you approach the boundary of the Fissure itself. There's no distinct border, just a slow shading towards late afternoon and then sunset while the mist increases around you.
And as the mist wraps around you, and exhaustion you might have felt from the walk out here starts to evaporate... You've well and truly arrived, now. Better keep your eyes open.

She is fairly certain that the oozing version is the dream. Not completely, though, and as she creeps up on the upsetting tableau and reaches for her strife deck, her fingers slip past the knifekind card and dip into the needlekind one instead.
But she's made the right call, and when the hypodermic of sedative pierces the figment's neck, the dream-Noctis dissolves away into inert mist, the way the dreams do when attacked. Jetshard lets out a breath she hadn't been consciously aware of holding, as she lets the hand holding the needle drop to her side.]

Not when Prompto is counting on him.
Noctis lets out a shaky breath, hands trembling. He sees her, and he feels slightly calmer now. ]
... Jet-- Jetshard?
no subject
[She puts the hypodermic back into her strife deck, a motion that's accompanied by a brief flicker of a green-bordered card but otherwise is much less showy than some forms of hammerspace inventory.]
Are you alright?
no subject
... Not really. I hate this place.
no subject
The mist's thicker here than it is pretty much anywhere else I've seen. It's probably a good idea to keep moving.
no subject
... Sounds like a plan. Let's get the hell out of here.

[ He winces. He had one job, and he messed it up. He feels bad that Jetshard has to do the work for him, but... he'll make it up to her. Later, when he's feeling steadier. ]
I haven't yet. Sorry.
no subject
no subject
Yeah. I guess I was just too distracted.
no subject
[With her attention no longer on it, Jetshard's sylladex flickers out of view, and she jams the stabilizer into the ground at her side and starts it up.]
Let's get moving.
no subject
[ He folds his arms tight across his chest and follows her, tries not to think too hard about what he'd seen. ]
I'll get the next one.
