Intro Log: Eight Legs No Heart

[hadrielmods]

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!

"Yes, it is most unusual, but it makes for a good partnership." Fetch seems content that his new friend is going to get along with Ushahin. Squeezing his claws down into his shoulder for a brief moment, he then takes off, flying upwards to land on the roof of a nearby building.

Ushahin's gaze turns upon Amos, fully looking at him for the first time with his mismatched eyes. "What is your name?"

There is the briefest of hesitations: where Amos comes from, giving out one's name freely is considered risky, as it could be used to enslave or enchant one. But not answering is rude, and that's a worse offense, so Amos answers simply, "Amos. An' what's yours, if I may ask?"

An equal exchange.

[ushahin]

"Ushahin Dreamspinner." He doesn't offer a hand to shake, not out of rudeness. He's merely unaccustomed to the gesture and unused to using his broken hand for much more than lifting up a fork.

"A pleasure to meet you, Ushahin."

Amos, though raised in America, has lived in Japan for far longer and instead of shaking hands he bows, the motion precise and graceful. "An' you, Fetch," he tells the raven with a merry grin, though he knows the bird already knows that.
