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.

[Have a vain little head toss, he can be willfully obtuse if he wants to be.]
Besides, I can sniff out people if they're nearby; it's not like we're totally out of luck. I'm not a Navigator for nothing, you know!
no subject
... even after everything I've done, you insist on helping me?
no subject
[He sounds surprisingly serious, given that he was talking about fire-breathing bunnies just a minute ago.]
I didn't risk my life tearing those distortions out of your heart because I wanted to make you suffer--I did it to open your eyes. Reforming society isn't about destroying negative influences. It's about reforming them. Reintegrating them so the world can be a better, kinder place, and they can help contribute to that. How are you supposed to help anyone if never get a chance to try? I'm not just leaving you out here to get eaten, you have a job to do.
no subject
Y-yes. Of course. It's hardly my intention to get out of that.
[A breath to steady himself.]
Very well. Do you have any idea what direction we should start off in?
no subject
[Have a little unintentional cute with a brief meerkat pose as he tries to sense people nearby. Failing that, he paces around the area, looking at the way the earth around the trees has been disturbed. Probably better to head away from those drag marks.....
Finally, he points a paw in a likely looking direction.]
Let's try this way.
