hadriel_logs | Intro Log: Welcome to the Snave (snake cave)

Who: New arrivals and everyone else!
What: The intro log for March
Where: The colosseum and all around the city.
When: March 10th-15th
Warnings: Snakes! Snakes! It's a snake!

Good morning, new arrivals! Or, well, it's probably morning. The sun is up, anyway. Okay - not the sun, but that ball of light at the top of the cave that functions as the sun, anyway. Whatever. The point is you've woken to find yourself on the floor of Hadriel's colosseum. You may be wondering where you are and what you're doing here, but what you should be wondering is how fast you need to run to get away from a three-headed snake.

You're not the only one who just woke up. Also to be found in the arena, angry and confused, are Runespoors - large three-headed snakes. Only one of the heads is venomous, but all of them are perfectly willing to take a bite out of you if you get too close - or if you annoy it. If you're lucky, an attacking Runespoor may distract itself via infighting between the three heads, giving you time to run. If not, well, let's just hope you can fight off all three heads at once!

But that's not the only thing you might find. Also scattered around the colosseum floor are what look like tasty snacks. Popsicles, cheese, even toast! Unfortunately, if you get hungry and take a bite, you will quickly discover that each and every one of these is actually soap. So that's great. Maybe the Door thinks everyone needs to shower more? You can also find a few that actually look like soap, and if you're really lucky, you might stumble across the rare and coveted 'pile of baby hands' soap.

With luck, you didn't get eaten by a snake or accidentally eat a piece of soap. Once you find your way out of the colosseum there's plenty of other distractions. Feel free to go 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!

[Rosen is walking near the shops shops, a stack of black paper under his arm and though he is mostly distracted with his own hunt for research materials, he stops almost involuntarily at the sound of a child's voice.

It still makes him feel ill when he sees children on their own in this place.

He falters a moment before timidly approaching]

Are you alright, young man? I..um...I'm afraid I've not seen any comic books around here.... [His voice peters off awkwardly. He wants to help but, having been in this place a month already, he knows there is probably little he can do.]

[ Duck shrugs a little. He was kinda half expecting that already. ] Oh, it's okay. I'm okay. I was just looking for food, and I thought maybe there'd be cool stuff here too.

I only have like, nine comics now. [ It's very distressing. ]

[Rosen can't help but feel a bit relieved at how well this boy is taken everything. It shows in the way his mouth almost curves in a smile. ]

Did you come from the coliseum?

[ Duck frowns a little before nodding. ]

Yeah, a few days ago. There was... snakes there. Three headed snakes.

[Though he keeps his expression calm, Rosen is internally cursing this hellhole for endangering children. Children. It is sickening.

He moves to squat so as to be nearer to Duck's height]

That sounds scary. Did they hurt you?

[Doctor mode engaged.]

No, I'm okay. I shot at them, and then someone came to help me and we got away. [ He straightens up, trying to seem as though it didn't bother him. It did, but... he's also (sadly) pretty used to stuff like this. ]

Don't worry! I know how look after myself. There were monsters at the last place I was at too.
