Intro Log: Please Remove Metal From Luggage

[hadrielmods]

Who: New arrivals and everyone else!
What: The intro log for August
Where: The colosseum and all around the city.
When: August 10th-13th
Warnings: New folks, metal falling apart, fun stuff

As you wake up on the sand of the colosseum, gazing up at cloudy gray skies, you might wonder what you're doing here. Where are you? How did you get here? You'll figure it all out soon enough, so try to clamp down on that rising panic, or you just might end up in a dangerous situation.

Because, of course, you're not the only thing that arrived. The Door has also chosen to pull in some rust monsters. These monsters may look a bit like insects, but they're much larger, with a rather vicious bite. You can fight them, but be careful - anything metal that touches them instantly begins to corrode. Your sword, a bullet from your gun, even your robot friend. Might want to keep a little distance.

And that's not all. Scattered across the ground of the colosseum can be found a variety of unique and delightful musical instruments. If you're the musical sort, maybe you can figure out how to play one - or maybe you already know. Hopefully no rust monster has wandered too close to the one you want to try, or you might find that it's missing important metal bits.

Once you've found a way to express the song in your heart, feel free to leave whatever bit of safety you've found. You can explore the rest of the city! Find a house, a new monster, a project to help with, or simply scavenge for supplies. Good luck, and enjoy your stay in Hadriel!

Certainly because of that. Be nice to have a Pelican here.

[Or even a boat with a nice little motor... although then you'd need fuel, and some place to keep it... Flying ship would be nice, but there'd be the same problems as a regular boat...]

Can you fly high then?

[unphase]

What's a Pelican?

[and there would be the pollution involved with most forms of motorized boats]

Yes, I can fly up to 7925 meters. Anything higher and I need a protective transuit.

[uptightness]

Ah. A type of ship.

[Not that she would refuse any... Although something like the MOI would be rather large for this place...]

... you should be able to get quite the view of this place.

[unphase]

Oh. I should've been able to figure that out.

[the Legion cruiser would've been perfect if it wasn't for the pesky problem of finding it a place to land]

I'd like to think so. Maybe see what others can't.

[uptightness]

[She does chuckle.]

With this place, I could well have meant a pelican big enough to ride...

[For all she knows, somewhere, someplace, there is such a thing...]

Exactly. Still trying to get our bearings on these islands.

[unphase]

[she giggles]

Wouldn't that be something to see!

[she's seen too much on to many planets to believe that such a thing isn't possible]

I wonder if there are other islands nearby and if those have life on them.

[uptightness]

Define nearby.

[Because there doesn't appear to be anything notable from what she knows. Then again, with this place, who knows. It doesn't exactly scream normal to begin with.]

[unphase]

Within a hundred kilometers or so?

[she's flown much further with no problems]

[uptightness]

To my knowledge no one has said anything. Might try asking around on the network. People there might have more information.

[unphase]

That's not a bad idea. Surely I'm not the only one who can fly here. Maybe someone else has gotten curious.

[uptightness]

No doubt you can share notes with them.

[If they have, and if they are willing to share.]
