World Log: Jungle Arrival

[hadrielmods]

Who: Everyone in the city
What: The event log for the Planet Transfer
Where: All over the city
When: March 28th
Warnings: None

One minute you're freezing your ass off in the middle of a light snowstorm, and the next you're suddenly boiling in the wet heat. Sunlight streams down through green- so much green, more green than you could possibly have imagined since coming to Hadriel- and it's beautiful in its own way, if you're into that sort of thing.

The more sensitive of citizens may feel some slight nausea from the move but otherwise everything is as it should be. Alien birds squawk in the trees, you can hear the local fauna rustling through the brilliantly-colored leaves. Everything is alien here, but a forest is universal. Luckily, a section of forest has been cleared away for the city, so you can still see the sky above and you can still move around without getting lost in the thick foliage that surrounds this place, but be careful when exploring! There's no telling what could be out there, and you want to be prepared for anything.

So what is your new home like? It's hot, for one- you might want to shed and burn all those winter coats and Christmas sweaters immediately! You'll be sweating buckets before the day is over, but at least we still have cold showers to help wash off the grime as you adjust to your new life in an alien jungle. Have fun, enjoy your stay, but don't forget: we may need to fight here soon. Be ready.

Bakery

[outofthefire]

[Laura hates this place already. it's way too hot for her preferred clothing of a sweater set and wool kilt, so she's been forced to raid the stores for something that would work better. so now she's in a pink tank top and jeans that most people would probably call "mom jeans" as they have a high waistline. but hey, that was in fashion where she's from.

she fights her way through the plants until she reaches the Bakery. which unfortunately also seems to be overrun with plants, at least on the outside looking in. and she can hear Delmar fretting even from out here.

so she enters the Bakery, saying to Delmar]

Hi. Could you use another set of hands?

[imhisaunt]

[Laura's voice, though a bit hard to hear over the rustling of the vines he's currently doing battle with, is a welcome comfort. He stops in his task, arms tangled in the greenery as he's trying to get it to release its hold on a chair]

O-oh! Laura...oh yes...i would be very grateful....

[He exhales]

...i-if its not too much trouble...

[outofthefire]

Of course it's not. [she puts her hands on her hips and assesses the situation, then goes over to where Delmar is] All right. Let's see what we can do. [she crouches down to try and start untangling the vines around the chair Delmar was working on] What a mess! You'd think the fake gods would be smart enough to keep the great outdoors outdoors.
