[20:21:59] Indeed: There appear to be endless trees. It's rather dark, and you can't see the sky because of the treeline
[20:22:04] <Lunatide> "I can't see a thing..."
[20:22:08] Indeed walks up to the nearest tree, and examines it
[20:22:10] <Indeed> "Well, the trees are all over the damn place"
[20:22:13] <@ShockWave> Indeed: It's as you suspected. A tree.
[20:22:16] <Indeed> "Just a tree."
[20:22:19] Indeed turns back to Lunatide
[20:22:21] <Indeed> "So we're just in some sort of forest."
[20:22:24] <Lunatide> "Let's try and find someone"
[20:23:14] <Indeed> "But WHERE? It's just trees in all directions!"
[20:23:25] <Lunatide> "Let's head...this way"
[20:23:30] Lunatide points north
[20:24:00] <@ShockWave|Away> * To the north, you see an increasing density of trees. It looks like it heads towards the bulk of the forest *
[20:24:31] <Indeed> 'Are you sure? i just looks like the forest gets deeper?"
[20:24:40] <@ShockWave|Away> * Or maybe it could be the west. You can't tell for sure. Your pocket compasses are spinning like crazy *
[20:25:03] <Lunatide> "I think I can see a faint light, follow me"
[20:25:12] Lunatide walks left
[20:25:14] <Indeed> 'Uh, okay."
[20:25:18] Indeed follows Lunatide
[20:25:35] <Indeed> "What exacly did you see?"
[20:25:37] <@ShockWave|Away> * You bump into an invisible object. *
[20:25:58] <Lunatide> "Owch, my face! Help me find the source of this object"
[20:26:00] <@ShockWave|Away> It's..... well, it appears to be an invisible tree.
[20:26:21] <Indeed> 'What the heck is this thing?"
[20:26:22] <@ShockWave|Away> The tree suddenly appears in a shower of little particles. Did it just render, you both wonder?
[20:26:23] Lunatide kicks the bottom of this object
[20:26:33] Lunatide walks back
[20:26:42] <Indeed> "That's not normal."
[20:26:56] <Lunatide> "Hmmm, it doesn't seem to be bad though."
[20:27:00] <Indeed> "Should we keep going?"
[20:27:15] <Lunatide> "Yeah, let's keep heading left"
[20:27:34] Lunatide continues walking
[20:27:43] Indeed follows Lunatide, looking around him carefully
[20:27:49] <Indeed> *cautiously
[20:28:09] <@ShockWave|Away> her*
[20:28:34] <Indeed> (D'oh.)
[20:28:37] <@ShockWave|Away> * After a while of fumbling around and heading in all sorts of 'left' directions in the dark forest, you notice a clearing *
[20:28:48] Lunatide turns her head really fast at the sound of a shuffle, coming from behind"
[20:28:58] <Lunatide> "What was that?"
[20:29:02] <@ShockWave|Away> (there are no shuffles)
[20:29:18] <Lunatide> "Must have just been my imagination"
[20:29:27] Lunatide carries on walking.
[20:29:45] <Indeed> "Wait wait wait"
[20:29:54] <Lunatide> "is something wrong?"
[20:30:02] Indeed grabs Lunatide's arm and leads her back to he clearing
[20:30:11] <Indeed> "No, it's just... weird"
[20:30:40] <Indeed> "All this forest in every direction, and here's just a clearing, smack dab in the middle of it."
[20:31:12] <Indeed> "What was that sound?"
[20:31:13] <Lunatide> "Hmmm"
[20:31:16] <Lunatide> "Okay I definately heard a shuffle now!"
[20:31:25] <Lunatide> "Did you hear that?"
[20:31:32] <Indeed> "Yeah!"
[20:32:14] Lunatide looks to her right
[20:32:19] Indeed whips his head around toward his left
[20:32:31] <Indeed> "What was _that_!"
[20:32:33] <Lunatide> "I just heard a huge crack sound!"
[20:32:58] <Indeed> "Me too, but over here!"
[20:33:14] Indeed points toward the source of the sound he heard
[20:33:16] <Lunatide> "Something tells me we should be careful."
[20:33:40] <Indeed> "Yeah, this clearing is suspicious enough without all these weird sounds."
[20:34:00] <Lunatide> "Is that a light comeing from over there?"
[20:34:05] <Lunatide> (coming)
[20:34:42] Indeed squints
[20:34:50] <Indeed> "I don't know...
[20:34:51] <Indeed> "
[20:34:59] <Lunatide> "I...I feel an odd sensation..."
[20:35:19] <Lunatide> "What could that source be?"
[20:35:19] <Indeed> "What are you talking about?!"
[20:35:25] <Indeed> "What light?!"
[20:35:45] <Indeed> "You are making no sense..."
[20:35:45] <@ShockWave|Away> * Lunatide walks towards the edge of the clearing, apparently in some sort of trance *
[20:35:51] <Lunatide> "I'm...I'm going t- I..."
[20:35:59] <Indeed> "Bollocks."
[20:36:00] <Lunatide> "I feel..."
[20:36:12] Indeed sprints toward Lunatide
[20:36:17] <Indeed> 'Are you okay/"
[20:36:19] <Indeed> ?
[20:36:21] <@ShockWave|Away> Suddenly, the clearing morphs into a rocky plateau
[20:36:29] <Indeed> "AAGH!"
[20:36:32] <@ShockWave|Away> It's almost like you're in pre-history
[20:36:48] <Indeed> "What's going on?!"
[20:36:54] Lunatide wakes up
[20:37:00] <Lunatide> "Whoa, where are we!?"
[20:37:07] <Indeed> "I don't know!"
[20:37:38] <@ShockWave|Away> (read discussion)
[20:37:43] Lunatide looks around at the large rocks
[20:37:44] <Indeed> "It's like we teleported or something..."
[20:37:50] <Lunatide> "Yeah..."
[20:38:30] Indeed leans over the edge of the plateau, examining the ground below
[20:38:42] <Lunatide> "Have you found something?"
[20:38:43] <@ShockWave|Away> Lunatide: You notice that they are quite jagged, yet very tall and uncracked. They are the first part of a large mountain range to the same direction.
[20:39:15] <Lunatide> "These rocks are odd"
[20:39:18] <@ShockWave|Away> Indeed: You see more plateaus like this one, all over the place. Some look like they can be reached by going across the mountainsides
[20:39:43] <Indeed> "Good grief..."
[20:40:07] <Indeed> "Some sort of mountain range. But where did the forest go? Where did WE go?"
[20:40:18] <Lunatide> "I have no idea..."
[20:40:39] Indeed shakes his head slowly
[20:40:47] <Indeed> "None of this makes any sense."
[20:41:03] <@ShockWave|Away> Indeed: You notice a sort of nomad village nearby on the massive plateau
[20:41:19] <Lunatide> "I'm so confused..."
[20:41:22] <Indeed> "Hey, what's that?"
[20:41:29] <Lunatide> "What's what?"
[20:41:36] Indeed points to what looks like a village
[20:41:46] <Indeed> "Over there!"
[20:42:02] <Lunatide> "Oh I see now! Shall we head over there? If we do, we should be careful."
[20:42:33] <Indeed> "I guess, nowhere else to go in this godforsaken place."
[20:42:49] <Lunatide> "After you then!"
[20:42:51] Indeed walks cautiously toward the village
[20:43:06] Lunatide follows
[20:43:26] <@ShockWave|Away> * You head off in the direction of the village. It's going to take a little while, so why don't you talk on the way? You haven't introduced each other yet. *
[20:43:53] <Indeed> "Well, I barely know you, but I'm Jim"
[20:44:04] <Lunatide> "My name is Aya"
[20:44:36] <Indeed> "So, do you remember how you got here? I don't have a clue."
[20:44:47] <Lunatide> "I can't remember either..."
[20:45:19] Indeed rubs his forehead in confusion
[20:45:34] <Indeed> "I just don't understand how ANY of his could happen..."
[20:45:38] <Indeed> *this
[20:45:45] <Lunatide> "Me neither...but for now, let's try and find some information!"
[20:46:09] <Indeed> "Yeah. Hopefully these guys know something."
[20:46:32] <Lunatide> "Sexist. There could be ladies you know!"
[20:46:37] Lunatide skips ahead.
[20:46:51] <Indeed> "Eh, I meant that generally."
[20:46:59] <Indeed> "Hey wait! Be careful..."
[20:47:04] Lunatide stops
[20:47:05] <@ShockWave|Away> * You're fairly close to the village now. Looks like the huts are made of straw, and the roofs are thatched together. They look quite primitive. *
[20:47:42] <Lunatide> "I think I can see the houses more clearer..."
[20:47:54] <Lunatide> "Looks like...straw?"
[20:48:39] <Indeed> "We must be way off the beaten path or something..."
[20:49:17] <Lunatide> "yeah..."
[20:49:38] <+iBot> TSURUYOBRA-BRARI!!!
[20:49:46] Indeed jumps
[20:49:54] Lunatide screeches
[20:50:00] <Lunatide> "WHAT WAS THAT!?"
[20:50:14] <@ShockWave|Away> The cry deafens you. A short little hairy man sprints past you from behind, running into the center of the village.
[20:50:37] <Lunatide> "My ears are ringing!"
[20:50:38] Indeed pants heavily
[20:50:45] <+iBot> TSURUYOBRA-BRARI!!!
[20:50:51] Indeed jumps again
[20:51:01] <+iBot> braxucko!!
[20:51:03] <Lunatide> "owch!"
[20:51:10] <Lunatide> "Calm down people!"
[20:51:15] Lunatide backs away
[20:51:17] <Indeed> "JESUS CHRIST WHAT'S WITH THESE PEOPLE!"
[20:52:09] <+iBot> "Mumi-latsuyuruy, BRAXUCKO!" he spits at you.
[20:52:27] <Lunatide> "What a freak! It looks like we are not welcome here..."
[20:52:33] <Lunatide> "Shall we run?"
[20:52:52] <@ShockWave|Away> A couple of what look like brutes run behind you and force you into the middle of the village.
[20:53:03] <Lunatide> "Okay scratch that!"
[20:53:07] <Indeed> "Doesn't look like we can!"
[20:53:24] <@ShockWave|Away> You can see a straw structure in the middle, which looks suspiciously like a stake used to burn people.
[20:53:32] <Indeed> "Oh no."
[20:53:36] <Lunatide> "Oh shi..."
[20:53:46] <Lunatide> "Where are you taking us!?"
[20:54:04] <+iBot> Mumamitsu-Miro! MUMAMITSU-MIRO!
[20:54:08] <+iBot> Mumamitsu-Miro! MUMAMITSU-MIRO!
[20:54:17] <+iBot> Mumamitsu-Miro! MUMAMITSU-MIRO!
[20:54:21] <Lunatide> "I can't understand you..."
[20:54:23] <@ShockWave|Away> The cries echo from all the huts.
[20:54:36] <@ShockWave|Away> They're all jeering at you, and pointing towards the stake.
[20:54:36] <Indeed> "Oh god, the chanting. This is VERY BAD."
[20:54:39] <Lunatide> "Jim do you know what they are saying?"
[20:54:47] <Indeed> "NOT A CLUE!"
[20:55:01] <@ShockWave|Away> They're tying you up to the stake.
[20:55:09] <@ShockWave|Away> (kinky)
[20:55:13] <Lunatide> (lol)
[20:55:20] <Lunatide> "GET OFF ME!"
[20:55:21] <Indeed> "/me struggles
[20:55:31] <@ShockWave|Away> The cries are still echoing from hut to hut
[20:55:32] <Indeed> "NO!"
[20:55:36] <+iBot> Mumamitsu-Miro! MUMAMITSU-MIRO!
[20:55:42] <+iBot> Mumamitsu-Miro! MUMAMITSU-MIRO!
[20:55:46] <+iBot> Mumamitsu-Miro! MUMAMITSU-MIRO!
[20:55:46] Indeed tries to free himself
[20:55:56] Lunatide wiggles like a fish
[20:55:59] ShockWave|Away rolls a die
[20:56:06] <@ShockWave|Away> Your attempt fails.
[20:56:07] <Lunatide> (dice?)
[20:56:16] <@ShockWave|Away> (xD)
[20:56:32] <@ShockWave|Away> You're now secure on the stake, ready to be burned
[20:56:35] <Lunatide> "Ah it's no use."
[20:56:44] Indeed kicks and wriggles
[20:56:44] <@ShockWave|Away> And there are villagers in a circle around you.
[20:56:48] <Indeed> "AAAAAAAAGGHGHH"
[20:56:51] <Lunatide> "It was nice meeting you, Jim"
[20:56:58] <Indeed> "Uh, you too?"
[20:57:04] Lunatide accepts the end...
[20:57:05] <@ShockWave|Away> [ to be continued ]
