Intro Log: None Hadriel With Left Shark

[hadrielmods]

Who: New arrivals and everyone else!
What: The intro log for February
Where: The colosseum and all around the city.
When: February 10th-16th
Warnings: Shark week

Once more, new arrivals will wake up on the ground level of the ruined colosseum. There isn't anything particularly comforting about it, either- everything is a bit cold and impersonal and there is, of course, the fact that nobody remembers just how they managed to wind up here in the first place. That can all be explained in time, though- until then, you've got quite a bit on your plate already.

And why is that? Well, that may be because you're also surrounded by sharks.

Yes, on land.

It doesn't mean that they're totally incapacitated though- you still have your two headed sharks, your giant sharks, and your sharktopus that are more than capable of flopping in your general direction before taking you into a death roll. And don't forget the (far more dangerous) sand sharks, capable of swimming through the ground as if it were water itself. You might want to start to find a life raft high ground soon.

But hey, if you manage to get away from the sharks, feel free to help yourself to one of the odd food shaped blankets. These cozy comforters are perfect for your new bed, but they tend to carry a faint scent of the food they represent, so be sure not to sleep on an empty stomach!

Listen to the Jaws theme, grab a harpoon, and get cozy! On your way to safety, make sure to explore the rest of the city! Find a house, a new monster, a project to help with, or simply scavenge for supplies. Good luck, and enjoy your stay in Hadriel!

[Wait.

He stares up at the walls of the Colosseum.]

Maybe this is a fairy circle.

[occupiesvitalregions]

What?! [That's ridiculous. It also sounds like something England would know all about, too. Prussia looks up at the walls as well, then back at Russia.]

So what does that mean? We're going to have to fight some fairies or something then? Aren't they tiny?

[No, there was probably something trickier they had to do. Greeeaaat.]

[romanovs]

They are, but if there is a lot of them they can still be a lot of trouble.

He suddenly has to wonder if Pityo and Sketto are still around. They aren't with him here, but that doesn't mean they aren't in the city. They might just be somewhere safer.]

...If it is, then they probably aren't the only fae here, and the least that you should worry your little head about, yes? [Which makes him wonder about the so-called gods. They are of roughly equal power level with Solais and Ridire from what he can tell, and their powers have similarities, too. And they seem to be bonded to this cave.]

[occupiesvitalregions]

I'll have to come up with a battle plan. I've never fought fairies before.

[There's a bigger problem ahead, though. Like the problem of where exactly they were.]

Besides the possibly fairy circle and the shark monsters, what is this place? Where is it?

[romanovs]

It's called Hadriel, and it is underground.

It is either on another planet or in another world, yes?

[He thought all of that would be obvious but that's probably more his experience of multiple years of world hopping talking.]

[occupiesvitalregions]

Another world? But--

[He wants to argue that that's impossible, but he was just attacked by crazy flying shark monsters, and was then confronted by Russia from what seems to be about 300 years ago. Something definitely weird was going on, and he's not really in a place to argue it, as much as he wants to. Instead he opts to sputter a bit and gesture futilely.]

That's insane. How're we going to get back?

[romanovs]

Hopefully not very soon, yes?

...But when we do, no time will have passed back home, so you don't need to worry about it.

[occupiesvitalregions]

What do you mean, "hopefully not soon"? And how would no time have passed? The more you talk, the less sense this makes. I think I need to ask someone else about this.

[Please Russia, his brain can only handle so much.]

[romanovs]

Because there are many nice people here and nobody has to starve of freeze to death, and we can just be ourselves.

And I don't know why, but that is how it is.
