Terre Haute

[Today, our intrepid explorers have finally made it to Terre Haute. It’s mostly grassland, and on the outskirts small spotted lions, about the size of leopards prowl around. They seem to be more interested in the strange antelope running around than in any people, however. Towards the edge, lies a cliff face, looking out to sea, on occasion giant whales can be seen breaching the water.

Of the weird thing they came to look for, in the distance is a cylindrical shape, lying on its side. But between them and it is a strange village. One made up of excessively tall wooden huts, all of which have electric lights, turned on, though how they’re creating such power is a mystery, they are still very much inside the dead zone.

The residents of this off little village are wandering around, going about their buisess. The residents being a group of bemused looking giraffes. Perhaps you will even see some familiar non-giraffe faces milling about.

Welcome to Terre Haute

[Ezio is quite baffled. This little village, and animals everywhere... but who lives here? He dismounts his horse, looking about in surprised.]

Have the people all fled?

[ A tween in a horrible maroon v-neck and a pair of workout slacks sits on a bench off to the side of the juice bar, sipping cautiously at green juice from a glass.

Most importantly, he absolutely does not look like a crazy giraffe, although he's getting there. Once he sees people trickling into the city - not just the two or three acquaintances he's seen over the last few days, a cascade of people - he freezes stock still. ]


Am I... Seeing things?

Wh-what the heck? It feels like I've been dropped in Africa!

[Zelos is also among the baffled walking around an exploring, until he comes sight of this room. ]

Whoa. What are you guys up to in here?

[ Arya has to keep a tight warning grip on Nymeria as she watches them work. She is quiet apart from the occasional shushing. The direwolf ignores her, watching the giraffes like she's not quite sure what to make of them yet. ]

[One of those familiar faces is moving across the square when she hears the rabble of the expeditioners. Carolina pauses and turns, frowning, her gaze severe. She's currently wearing a black undersuit, with curtains made into a makeshift tunic and and trousers. At the back of her neck is a metal implant slot, skin mottled and raised around it.]

[Steph is also quite baffled! Anyway, she approached him for a reason. A very specific one.]

You. [Points at him.] Stay away from those. [Points at the lions.]

[Oh hey it talks! That makes things easier.]

[The Irish? Is that another group out here? Gah...]


Oh really? That sounds impressive!

So...What does the mirror controls do exactly?

[He gives Stephanie an even more confused look. Where does she get off telling him what to do?]

Why?

[Stepping up beside her and leaning to whisper in her ear.]

I imagine they'd taste interesting as a roast, don't you think?

[Lloyd is trying to figure out how the giraffes do all of this with hooves. He missed the MLP plot, okay.]

Because they'll probably eat you, if not spill your insides everywhere. And I know you. Leave them alone.

[The moment Allen saw those lions outside the village, Allen decided he needed to be awaaay from that part of the expedition. So he's found his way into the juice bar where- wow they are making drinks. But at least the juices look kinda delicious...]

I didn't know giraffes drank juice...

What's that on your neck?

[ The question comes from a girl that looks smaller still next to her 5' tall shadow. Nymeria explores as much as she can without abandoning Arya's side. ]

[You're only giving him ideas!]

So you are saying it would be manly to fell a beast like that.

This is officially the strangest thing I have ever seen.

[Carolina's gaze doesn't lighten despite the difference in height or as she clamps a hand over the implant slot on the back of her neck.]

Military property.

[But the nagging feeling in her gut pushes a question out,] Where did all of you come from?
