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.

Which I really question. It seems far too convenient for there not to be a reason, even if it isn't outright deliberate.

Besides those general frustrations, are you doing alright?
[They were in the forest a while and it... wasn't exactly the most pleasant place to be.]
no subject
What about you? You didn’t run into any more trouble, did you?
no subject
Ah, well... [He hesitates at that and... smiles a little wryly.] No trouble except for the forest's tricks. So nothing that actually matters.

Old memories got a little... too difficult. I'm rather embarrassed at how badly I handled it, to be honest.

And I do know that, of course. It was... uncomfortable. But Yuuri dealt with it. [Thank god for Yuuri.] It's not something I wanted her to see, but I'm rather grateful she was there.
...I suppose if nothing else the whole thing served to remind me why I prefer to avoid sleeping.
no subject
[this is tested and proven fact.]
...But it does have that unfortunate drawback, doesn't it?
no subject
[He'd rather no one got dragged here at all, but also... Give Yuuri a dang break and let her be with her sister.]
Being this close to being human while also not being human at all has both its disadvantages and its benefits. Sometimes even in the same area.
no subject
[A vague gesture to their surroundings.]
-...you know, all this shit.
no subject
The same goes for you as well, of course. About any of this. It's good we all have each other to lean on. I think if any of us ended up here alone... Ah, well, best not to give that too much thought.
Still. I'll be alright. [...] Do you think it would be in poor taste to joke that I'll just sleep it off?
[Heart.]

You're the absolute worst. Utterly horrible, and I'm glad you're with me.

At least you make being utterly shameless work for you.

Yes. It shows.
