Intro Log: Death Comes

[hadrielmods]

Who: New arrivals and everyone else!
What: The intro log for July.
Where: The colosseum and all around the city.
When: July 10th-15th
Warnings: Deathclaws. That's all you really need to know.

As usual, the new arrivals in Hadriel will be waking up on the dirt ground of the colosseum, and as usual, they won't be waking up alone. This month brings coat hangers of all shapes and, uh, sizes strewn about the colloseum floor around all of the new arrivals.

Get up, get out, meet and greet, find some new exciting interior decorating options, but don't forget about the more prominent threat: the (newly) local deathclaws roaming about in the inner halls of the arena. These deathclaws are vicious bipedal creatures with long arms ending in curved talons, horns ripe for goring and, of course, teeth as long as fingers. These animals have been engineered to be as deadly as they can possibly be, so you might want to buddy up before taking one on.

Have you escaped from the deathclaws? Made a few friends? Not died horribly? 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!

► This log covers July 10th-15th.

Or science.

[The two are not that different, in his opinion, just that you need more additional equipment for science than for magic most of the time. It's just knowing how to utilize what is there and where to push for it to get moving, and to most people both are very mysterious.]

oh my word the days got away from me, i'm sorry!

[ To kou, they're separate - but in the same way heads and tails of the same coin are separate. And the two are a forbidden to be mixed, in his world. Not that that's stopping a certain horrible woman he knows. But that's neither here nor there. ]

Hm. I haven't known gods to use science when magic suits them far more.

[ It's a curious thought, though. ]

no worries, I can backtag forever

The gods say that the door isn't theirs. That is why they can't stop it from bringing people in.

[He doesn't necessarily believe it, but if that is true, then the door being based in science and not magic might even explain some why the gods can't fix it. Though it is just as likely that they don't want to fix it, even if the door could be fixed or even was theirs.]

[onetrueprince]

I guess it would be too easy if they controlled the door.

[ Admittedly, Kougaiji is curious about their intentions - and whatever motive lies behind all of this in the first place. But above all else, he's going to be wondering for a while if there are ways to get the door to work the other way... ]

[muscovy]

Maybe they were brought here by it too and can't leave, and only tell us that one of the gods that still sleep might be able to bring us back because they are afraid of what will happen if we don't think that there is a hope to leave of our own choosing.

[He doesn't sound particularly bothered by that. Because he isn't. He's with family here so it is nice, family that he wouldn't have back home, and if this place is like the others no time passes back home, so he's not missing anything there.]
