Intro Log: Off my chest

[hadrielmods]

Who: New arrivals and everyone else!
What: The intro log for April.
Where: The colosseum and all around the city.
When: April 10th-13th
Warnings: Newbies, explosions, and things that are definitely treasure chests and not evil monsters out to get you.

Welcome to your first day in Hadriel! Enjoy your surroundings, meet your fellow travelers, and be sure to start exploring so you can collect as much loot as possible!

On the ground around you may notice bang snaps, scattered haphazardly. Try not to step on any of them, or you might burn your feet! Feel free to gather them up and use these baby fireworks however you see fit; there are dozens strewn about on the ground. Popping them will emit clouds of smoke of various colors, and... well, not much else.

Is there anything else lurking around? Glad you asked! If you look around, you may find a few innocent-looking treasure chests. Which you know, normally means free loot- except, in Hadriel, nothing is quite the way it's advertised of course and the chests are actually dangerous mimics. Mimics- often disguised as treasure chests- are monsters with surprisingly quick movements and gaping maws filled with teeth. They exist to try and fool an unlucky traveler into thinking they've gotten something good... only to lunge at them in their moment of triumph and prove that life is actually terrible and nothing comes for free.

Good luck!

Once you've managed your daring escape from the colosseum, feel free to go explore the rest of the city! Find a house, find a new monster, or simply scavenge for supplies. Good luck, and enjoy your stay in Hadriel!

[It's an abrupt change of topic, but he eyes the coffee anyway.]

It's too strange.

[mismanagement]

Oh? [Well, not everyone likes it. Maketh shrugs.] All right, then.

[fadeling]

Sorry. [One day he'll learn to stop apologizing.]

[mismanagement]

[There's not much that can be said to that. Maketh shrugs again.] Well, you can stay if you want. I don't have anything else, I'm afraid.

[fadeling]

That's alright. I don't need to.

[mismanagement]

[She won't stop Cole if he wants to leave. Really, Maketh isn't sure what to think of him at all. It's possible he might still be a threat. Whatever he is, Cole is not the child she initially mistook him for.] All right. If you need anything, come find me. I'll help if I can.

[fadeling]

Thank you. [He really does mean that.] They won't see me. I'll be alright.

[mismanagement]

[That's not as comforting as it could be, but Maketh doesn't see an alternative just yet. She nods just once.] Good luck, then.

[fadeling]

Yes. You too. Thank you for helping.
