hadriel_logs | Intro Log: Eight Legs No Heart

Who: New arrivals and everyone else!
What: The intro log for June.
Where: The colosseum and all around the city.
When: June 10th-15th
Warnings: Spiders. Soooo many spiders. New people. Probably swearing.

For once, the new arrivals to Hadriel will not be waking up on the cold hard ground of the colosseum. Oh, sure, you'll still awaken in the arena - but this time the Door has been kind enough to ensure that you wake up comfortably arranged in a very nice chair. Or maybe not so comfortably. Some of those look pretty awkward - hopefully you didn't wake up with a crick in your neck! And hey, feel free to try to drag some of these super cool chairs to your new homes. They're probably not cursed or anything.

As you make your way out of the arena, be careful getting to close to the walls - well, except that's the only way out, so good luck! Chilling up on there waiting to get the drop on you are Skulltulas. These funky-looking spiders have squishy underbellies, but their upper exoskeletons are hard and very difficult to break through. They really just want to nibble you a few times, and maybe suck out all of your blood. No big deal, right? Have fun!

Have you conquered your arachnophobia and managed to escape? Great! 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!

[Well, he is smiling. Proudly, even, not just because. SO he just smile a bit more brightly and nods.

...Are you a Dwarf, sir

also since we're apparently going with... a kind of full names here? And thinking about it, that is a nice idea. To shorten the father name like that (or he assumes that that is what's happening here and that the guy isn't called Cee as a father name). It allows him to keep his father in his name without tipping potential Sindar off about his house affiliations.]

Muscovy M. Prochainezo, at yours.

[He follows it up with a little bow, the way he observed in in Kíli and the others.]

There are a good number of people here that are very lively. [Which is a good thing to see and observe.] And you can look at this whole cave. There are a lot of buildings, and the temples, and the caves around it. [But the more interesting thing, in his eyes, are the people in it.]

[Good, good. A true smile. Elmer approves. He'll remember this.]

Sounds like I can keep busy for awhile then. That's good. I'm looking forward to exploring some more then. And now I've got enough supplies for the journey. Since it sounds like you've done some of exploring yourself, what's the first must-see place I should check out here?

There are a lot of people in the spires that can be lived in.

And the temples are interesting, but going in there is not nice because they will put feelings into your head that are not yours.

[Whoa whoa whoa hold the phone. What was that?]

Put... feelings into your head? How does that work?

It is like having people in your head, just that there is not a single person there. Only feelings. Anger and happiness and fear and hope.

Sounds interesting, really. I may have to try it. But maybe I'll start with one of the nice ones, first.

[He's very curious as to how it will work with him. But there's something else he needs to know before he starts his exploration mission.]

So some people have been stuck here or awhile then, yeah? Where have people been staying? I'm more than used to roughing it, if necessary, though.

[Well, he was warned. Not that that helps much, in Muscovy's experience - if people want to be mad at you for not warning them, they will just act like the warning was insufficient or ignore that it existed completely. But he did his best to not get in trouble.]

There are big houses that have a lot of flats in them and small houses that are all next to each other and have lots of rooms.

[He indicates the directions by pointing towards the spire that Rey lead him to and towards the Spiral where he is staying now. If there is more housing, he hasn't heard about it yet, and there are plenty of rooms free in both spire and spiral, so he figures that that is good enough.]

Oh, well that's good. I'd prefer a bed or a roof over my head if the option is there. Besides, those buildings look pretty cool.

[He shoulders his backpack, and offers Muscovy a parting handshake.]

I thank you for all your help. Time to go see what this place is really all about!

[Muscovy doesn't move forward to take the hand, but doesn't move back either - he just stays there in a bit of a distance, smiles and nods.]

Until we meet again.
