(April 18th - 19th)

So upon asking around in Hugel, you've learned that Arunafeltz has been abandoned for some years now. Something about the majority of the city disappearing off until the remainder moved off to Lighthalzen and left the city as a ghost town. Many of them have heard of the traveling machine, but never had seen it for themselves, except for a few who can recount their friends or family members going off world.

The journey to Arunafeltz shouldn't take more than a day. Once you get there, you should start rooting around the city center. Explore a little bit, and enjoy yourself. Your company. You're this much closer to getting home.

[Mission: Explore the city and rig your ride home.]

[ dinky waves back at cas like can u not.

nods at michonne before turning back to dean ]

That's a little vague. [ then again, when isn't everything vague for them. sigh. looking through drawers and shit ] What's it supposed to look like?

[inenochian]

[ why would you look through drawers for a machine big enough to traverse worlds. ]

[ looks at the flyer over dean's shoulder. ]

[sawedoff]

Like the magic schoolbus. I don't know man, it's a machine. Looks like a machine.

[don't ask me. looks for a city directory or something. 20 year old pamphlets, i'm sure they kept well]

[mercyless]

[ we're in the wrong room. heads back to the entrance hall. ]

[dices]

[ might be a clue if the machine isn't here okay ]

I'm comfortable turning every house upside down if it means that we get to go back.

[inenochian]

[ blips out and back in relatively quickly. ]

We're in the vestibule. The atrium is this way.

[sawedoff]

That's the plan.

[pushes a pile of dusty old program booklets and announcements and other miscellaneous city junk off of one of those inlaid glass countertops that's protecting a city layout map]

[tell me o wise map where do i go to get to this fabled glass ceilinged building]

[sawedoff]

[ i did the thing : > ]

[ heads through a door to the back of the chamber and into the hall beyond it. ]

[dices]

[ ya ]

[sawedoff]

[follows cas into hall in the middle of their tiny herd and clicks flashlight on to keep them from doing some unintentional conga lining]

[like hesitantly excited that this is gonna work out. elbows nick quietly while they make their way through empty ass building]

You actually think we were gonna make it out after all this time?

[be honest. nobody did.]

[dices]

[ laughs a little at him, scratching his neck. this is like, the most light at the end of the tunnel they have had for a long time so he's kind of clinging to hope for once ]

I think we deserve a damn break for once. [ shrugs ] I don't want to jinx it, but, yeah, I got a good feeling about this one.

[mercyless]

[ also takes out her flashlight and looks at the walls. uuhuuhu shadows. ]

[ still not sure how to feel about this whole going home thing. ]

[nosleeves]

{yeah.....it seems like a damned if you do damned if you dont sort of deal]

[sawedoff]

Dude, you're already jinxing it.

[still has no idea why zombie crew is even bothering to go back. buddy system. do it.]

[shines light up a set of stairs and sets about a-climbin]

[inenochian]

[ can we not use that word. the d word. ]

[ talk about jinxing it. ]

[dices]

[ we'll stop using the d word when you stop blinking in and out u lil unicorn ]

[ pats dean's back with a little chuckle and looks over his shoulder to check on this merry band of searchers ]

[mercyless]

[ who's merry. no one. ]

[inenochian]

[ i'm not confined to human legs for the duration of like. this thread. after this it's all over. let me have this. ]

[ keeps staring at everyone in their little group in turn, just squinting at their faces like he's memorizing them. because he's hopeful it'll work, even if he doesn't say so. ]

[sawedoff]

[arent you all a gleeful bunch]

[glances back before sweeping flashlight beam over the room at the top of the stairs. guide me npc. what wonderful lands am i trespassing into]

[aldebaranshit]

[its dusty and shit]

[no its another short chamber with double doors, light is shining through the pretty stained glass that's framing the door. might be it]

[dices]

[ all this dust is making his throat itchy. makes that horrible rraagghh sound you do when you're trying to scratch your throat from the inside

looks at the door and squints, before looking at cas. see now you can do your houdini thing ]

[inenochian]

[ or you could do your human thing and like. open the door's handle. with your hands. ]

[ either or. ]

Did they think to lock up after themselves.
