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!

Rey stops what she's doing. "You sure about that? Don't want to be a bother."

Because having an injured person resting on your couch sounds like such a bother.

"Sleep for a while," Maketh suggests, pushing herself upright with a groan. "It's no trouble. It would make me feel better, if you stayed."

She pauses. "You may have noticed. I like to control the variables. A bad habit, I'm afraid..."

[circumitus]

It would make her feel better. Rey frowns at that, the point just being driven home that there are people here who give a shit. It isn't something that she's used to.

"Yes. Have noticed that, in fact." She brings her hands to her knees as she sets herself back down over the couch. "And it isn't always a bad habit."

Sometimes Rey needs it.

[mismanagement]

Maketh just shrugs. Details are important, and must be controlled. But most of the time it runs her raw in the process. "I'm going to rest for a bit. Call me if you need anything. I'll be in that room."

She points.

[circumitus]

"Understood." Rey leans back into the couch, sinking into the cushion. "And... thank you."

Good talk.
