Terre Haute Expedition: Paradisa Town

[save_the_souls]

[After a long few days of traveling, the expedition team has reached past it's halfway point! And as such, they decide to make rest at a place that had once been the target of a previous expedition:]


Paradisa Town
Note: Talking Animal People and Actually Happy Once-ler Not Included

[A small cutesy village that once served as a world change location, it has now been abandoned of all it's previous residents. Though it's condition hardly looks like a place that hasn't been lived in for years- instead it has the condition that everyone just stepped out for awhile. There are more than enough small houses to fit everyone, so it's a nice break from sleeping on the ground (for some anyway). It's also a good place to stock up if you're one of those explorers that forgot things such as food and spare clothing. That is, if you don't mind peaches and fish and really gaudy clothing.]

[Relax, Explore, Pig out on Peaches - the evening is yours to do as you please.]

[ensorceler]

I know of no vermin that reach such sizes in England, nor is it common for a town such as this to be so abandoned and yet to remain in such perfect condition.

[ She glances towards the entrance of the town, beyond where those eight legged sheep are, even if she can't see them from here. Those are sign of curse enough, in a place like Paradisa, Anne would believe it. ]

All of the belongings remain, yet there are no longer people. What could have made them leave in such a hurry? Or have they truly? For someone must tend the sheep.

[findatree]

That would be great!!

[panicswitched]

Fair enough. I'm definitely here to do some learning. Cooking learning. Fish-catching learning.

[heliotroping]

[He catches every one, rolling them down gently into a pile. Eventually...]

You have a good amount! Any more, and it'll start spoiling before you get to finish it.

[encryptedlock]

Well, this is the right place for that second one, anyway. These fish are pretty easy to catch.

[Which is probably pretty lucky, all things considered.]

[storiestotell]

The village is protected so nothing dangerous can get through to it. [ Well, mostly. But that's not a story for now. ]

[inafadingcrown]

True enough. [She smiles and sits, picking up a peach and taking a bite out of it.] Do not let my mutterings discourage you; you should enjoy this while you are able.

[inafadingcrown]

Felix... [Honestly, lying to her never works well. But whatever. It's his choice. After a moment's consideration, she waves her hand dismissively.] Your business is your own.

[inafadingcrown]

[Of course she did. She's perceptive.]

Well, now that you have confirmed that pride is my weakness, what do you intend to do with it? You have me at a disadvantage; I have not yet discovered yours.

[Partially joking, but... boy does she want to get to know what makes Arya tick.]

[kid_apocalypse]

Heh, yeah. A little too "alien abduction" if you ask me. Have there ever been aliens around? I mean...besides the ones in the castle, anyway.

[panicswitched]

Yeah, she's been here longer than I have, but she's back at the castle. She'll want a whole report when we get back.

[ well, honestly, helen would believe the eight-legged sheep bit at least. ashley's confident of that much. ]

[panicswitched]

Sweet. I'll take one out of two. Better than it could be.

[panicswitched]

Yeah, I think I will. [ she grins though and picks up her own peach, tossing it around in her hands for a while. ] It's nice to not have to worry about things for once, whether or not I can actually... handle it, y'know? [ she hasn't so much as looked at her talons since she showed galadriel, after all. ]

[tapshoetomove]

[Luke goes to move in front of him to get a better look.]

I think town of kids would be more likely.

[secondchances]

Uh huuuuh. [Sure, totally buys that. Only not.]

[fanstheflame]

The buffalo aren't edible? [he frowns. that's worrying, he'd been considering them as a pretty reliable food source for a group this large in case anything went south on them] Why not?

[not_mafia]

It still seems weird..

Anyway, maybe there's another house around here that at least has a nice bed to sleep on...

[not_mafia]

[JUMPS]

Jane-san?! It didn't get on you or anything, did it?!

[lord_wizard]

[He checked under the bed to be sure there were in fact no bugs, and sat down on the mattress with a sigh]

Who, not what. The First Generation, sometimes called the Outsiders, are former residents that left the castle many years ago.

[lord_wizard]

What sort of creatures were they?

[lord_wizard]

Your advise is noted, thank you.

[And just because, he finishes what he was doing and gingerly touches one of the bones]

[lord_wizard]

[Oh goddammit...]

I am not very fond of rivers.

[psych0p0mps]

[laughs] Then tell Future Jane thank you for having helped in the future!

[someday she will convert someone to her favorite foods. SOMEDAY.]

[psych0p0mps]

[Nearby, Aradia climbs up onto the fence to look over.]

Haha, that's a lot of legs.

[psych0p0mps]

[Overhearing as she passes - and of course let's go dig up old trauma it'll be fun 8D]

Oh, yeah, wasn't there a world change here once? Were you here for that?
