paradisabeyond | Terre Haute Expedition: Paradisa Town

[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.]

Y-yeah. I think I'll just stick to the tents.

[he chuckles]

Not all of them have roaches. Just a few here and there.

I'd rather not take my chances.

[He perks up at Zelos' wet hair, however.] Eh? Does one of them have a bathtub or something?

You do know the cockroaches can get outside into the tents, right?

Huh? Oh nah, I took a bath in the lake.

[Thank you, Zelos. Guess who's sleeping FAR AWAY from the houses tonight.]

The lake? Wasn't it cold?

[DON'T GET GRABBED BY A PLAGUE DOCTOR]

Well yeah. It is a lake.

[sCREAM]

How was I supposed to know? I don't exactly go swimming in lakes all the time.

[a shrug]

Well it is. Still, beats being dirty all the time.

I guess... [guess who hasn't gone into the lake and isn't planning to]

[Oh. He can tell]

Seriously! You don't want too strong a smell out here- it could attract all sorts of animals!

Wh-what, seriously? But isn't this region safe?

This town's safe, but we don't know what lies east of here! No one's been out that far.

...a-and that's where we're going, of course.

Yep! That's why it's an expedition after all!

Ah...

[He suddenly brings his hands up and scratches at his hair.]

Jeez! I can't believe I wanted to go to some place that's completely unknown! I just hope it's not as dangerous as the last expedition was.

Haha...you know there's a good chance it will be.

Already regretting coming?

...no. I'm nervous, but I'm glad to finally be doing something. I feel so useless back at the castle.

Yeah, I know how that can be.

[but then lightly]

But you won't be much use if you get eaten! So after you're done setting up for the night, go take a bath in the lake okay?
