Intro Log.

[awashmods]

Ding, dong, bell, Pussy's in the well. Who put her in? Little Johnny Thin. Who pulled her out? Little Tommy Stout. What a naughty boy was that, To try to drown poor pussy cat, Who never did him any harm, But killed all the mice in the farmer's barn.

ou wake in knee-deep water, cold as ice and stagnant, in a space that is far too echoey and spacious. It feels like a massive cave, but looking up... there's only one small, circular opening that shows grey sky and shines any sort of light. It looks like a long trip upwards, a small cylinder with walls of brick that's just a little too high to reach, even when jumping. Getting out is probably going to be a bit of a task, especially considering the water is more than cold enough to make limbs go numb. The dark makes it impossible to see much further, but the space seems large, all filled with water, but with no other way out, stone walls the only thing for an intrepid explorer to find. But most importantly of all... you're not alone. Welcome to Awash's first intro log, everyone! Please review the FAQ and rules before playing. Characters have all woken at the bottom of the well in the middle of the town (which seems a lot bigger on the inside, somehow), and it looks like they'll have to put in some work to get out. Once out, they'll be free to explore the various locations the Town has to offer at will. Just try not to die on any of the far-too-rickety walkways. Further information can be found here at the OOC post, and don't forget to greet your fellow players here!

Yeah. This place is a ghost town.

[It's hard to pinpoint just when they are, as well as where. The lack of color makes it even more difficult.]

That'll work for the short term--but what if we can't figure out how to leave this place?

[ifionlyhadthecourage]

Oi, bambino, don't think like that. Of course we're doing to figure out a way to leave this place. There was a way in, so there's a way out.

[ He gives Kyle's hand a reassuring squeeze. ]

You can count on me, alright?

[dreidels]

[It means a lot to him; Kyle is often so certain in his day-to-day life, but right now? Right now it helps that there's someone older, someone a little more confident in their ability to go home.]

Okay. Yeah, alright. [He offers Caramia a smile. He's just got to have faith and try.] We can work together.

[ifionlyhadthecourage]

[ Well, he's glad that even when he wasn't a designated leader, the kids were still good at listening to him. That makes him a little happier than it should have. ]

Sounds good to me. If you find anything interesting, just let me know! If we look around well enough, we'll be out of here in no time.

[ Without realizing it, he's slowly been guiding Kyle to Bluo. Which, was a little strange, since he wanted to be away from water as much as he could, but... it was the only district he hadn't gone through yet. Guess it was inevitable... ]
