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!

[He does catch that smile - because he's observant, yes, but also because he generally turns his head a bit when people talk, to be sure that he hears them correctly. Being deaf in one ear can make it difficult, and Adam compensates as subtly as he can, not wanting to broadcast his own weaknesses either.

If Henry can smile - and clearly he can - he'll do fine. Adam can think of worse things than showing up here, though he doesn't know if Henry can. Still, they both have friends here, which goes quite a long way toward making things a little easier, as cheesy as it would be to actually say something like that aloud.]

All right. Just don't go in the caves and don't try to touch any monsters. There are a few things you really shouldn't try to figure out for yourself.

[Like the whole resurrection thing. Adam knows it's real - he's known enough people here who have died and come back - but testing it out is something else. Death hurts even if you'll come back, and it's frightening even if you'll get another chance.

Henry might not quite be his friend, not yet, but Adam doesn't want that for him.]
