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.

[Oh no he's cute. She's going to take a picture before she does anything else. Based on the rate the last one got done...]

Well this was a good place to stop. I'm thinking we're getting close to done.

[Of course, the hush shepherd absorbs the sound of her voice before it reaches Prompto. He blinks, mouths what? at her, and then looks vaguely perturbed before cupping a hand behind his ear.]
bulletnews: (i don't get it)

[...Ah. Nothing for it but to get closer.]

Does it seem to you like we're almost done?
photoshooter: (PHONE 📷 Shit only two bars)

[personal profile] photoshooter 2018-04-25 07:33 am (UTC)(link)
[Prompto frowns faintly and then pulls out his phone to text her.]

sorry i think something here turns the sound off! My bad Aya (^~^;)ゞ

[Nothing to worry about, though, right?]
bulletnews: (well then what about this)

[personal profile] bulletnews 2018-04-26 02:17 am (UTC)(link)

That's inconvenient, but not unexpected given what my dreams have had in them...

It seems to me like we're almost done though, so here's hoping whatever that is backs off.
photoshooter: (... 📷 Oh. I'm sorry.)

[personal profile] photoshooter 2018-04-26 03:43 am (UTC)(link)
ya it's annoying but at least its not dangerous

And these dogs are rly nice

I'd like to be done here tho. This dream stuff's getting p old.
bulletnews: (well then what about this)

No kidding. If we end up finding some of Eirin's butterfly dream pills I'm making sure everyone gets some if we can figure out how to make more of them.
photoshooter: (OH? 📷 Kim's marrying who?)

[personal profile] photoshooter 2018-04-27 07:03 am (UTC)(link)
butterfly pills? 【・ヘ・?】

[personal profile] bulletnews 2018-04-28 01:52 am (UTC)(link)
Special medicine that overrides whatever dream you would have otherwise had with flying gently along as a butterfly. It actually does work, but it's not really the kind of dream I like.
photoshooter: (SKEPTICAL 📷 No seriously. What?)

[personal profile] photoshooter 2018-04-28 05:17 am (UTC)(link)
[Prompto pauses before his next reply.]

That sounds really nice tho. Like soothing. why don't you like it?
bulletnews: (well then what about this)

[personal profile] bulletnews 2018-04-28 04:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Gotta go fast.

[No, it was not recognized as a legitimate medical condition.]
photoshooter: (CHOCOBO 📷 I want to ride all day!)

[personal profile] photoshooter 2018-04-28 06:20 pm (UTC)(link)
[He laughs, even though there's no sound.]

lol I get that!!! I like that better IRL than in my dreams tho!! └(>ω<。)┐-=≡≡≡≡≡

I see... I just prefer all aspects of my life to be consistent as far as that goes.
photoshooter: (MODEL 📷 Face so pretty)

[personal profile] photoshooter 2018-04-28 08:52 pm (UTC)(link)
it's a lot easier to steer in real life than when i'm sleeping.
bulletnews: (let's make a correction)

[personal profile] bulletnews 2018-04-28 09:22 pm (UTC)(link)
It does help not having to use a tool to do that...
