THE SQUAD GETS BUFFED: POST-PLOT HEALING LOG


THE SQUAD GETS BUFFED: POST-PLOT HEALING LOG

OOC POST

Refuge can be found in the forest beyond Weathertop. No matter what path they all take, everyone somehow finds their way to the ruins of the long-lost mystical city of...

Philadelphia?

Wait, what?

The forest gives way to ruins that are clearly a chunk of Center City from the US city of Philadelphia. The ruins are very strange due to their placement: the trees of the forest are large and ancient but not large enough to hide the chunk of city, yet here it is, cradled in a secret place in the forest's center even though it wasn't visible from a distance.

Many of the buildings are overgrown with massive vines that have threaded in and around their structures. Most of the streets are broken up, with plants growing between cracks of asphalt. A long stretch of Market Street is now one long grass-filled path.

The sky seems caught in a strange eternal twilight, forever early evening, as if the city has decided it will be rush hour until the end of time. There's always enough light to move around in but the sun never sets or rises or any higher. The crescent moon is always just slightly visible in the sky above, never shifting its place. An effect that looks like a green aurora can always be seen in the sky ahead. This is the only part of the sky that moves, shifting like a normal aurora. Sometimes it crackles slightly and briefly changes blue or red.

Something calls out to them, urging them to the Parkway Central Branch of the Philly Free Library. Stragglers may find the quest magic teleporting them here after the majority arrives. Here, they'll be able to help each other out, heal each other and offer first aid or any food/water that was salvaged, and comfort each other after what happened.


NOTES

Setup: Please only do top-levels either with characters that require some kind of care, first aid/conventional medical treatment, healing, food/water, psychological comfort OR with characters that are capable of offering it. All other characters can tag around and meet/visit people.

General open logs: For general open logs, do not use this log, instead do your own open posts set in the area. This log is purely to provide a centralized place for healing since so many characters were injured or made ill.

Background Info: Please see the related camp OOC post for any background info about the library and area.

Having a description of athelas's scent makes tracking it down incredibly easy. It pays to have a best friend with an excellent sense of smell.

Hiccup lets the crushed plant's leaves fall into the boiling water, and an entirely different scent from the original sweet smell hits his nose. The smell of an isolated cove on a northern island wafts over him, and it's clear that the athelas is much more than it appears.

Hiccup brings the water over to Sothe, letting the steam drift over the boy.

"Sothe? Sothe, can you hear me? You need to wake up."

He can't hear him, at first.

But then the scent has a moment to sink in, and there's finally something other than a dark, lonely void going on in his head. It smells like the morning - that fresh, crisp air from the first light of dawn, before the world wakes up in earnest. But more than a certain time, it makes him think of a certain person -

You need to wake up.

"Mm..." His face twitches slightly. "...caiah?"
wherenoonegoes: (Hiccup hmm)

[Hiccup breathes a sigh of relief and places the water to the side.]

Sorry, it's just me. How are you feeling?

[ He stays like that for a bit, lying in the same spot, but with his eyes finally open. Staring at the ceiling. ]

Kind of crappy. Where...are we?

[Hiccup feels Sothe's forehead, checking his temperature. It doesn't feel particularly cold to the touch, so it seems the magically induced hypothermia has ended.]

In a library. Specifically in Philadelphia. Never heard of it myself, but apparently it's a city some of the others are familiar with. It's abandoned now, all covered in plantlife and ruins, but there's these massive towers of steel and glass outside.
followingdawn: how angry are you? ([por] on a scale of one to chris brown)

[ Sothe takes the check on his temperature without complaint, but the moment it's over, he pushes himself to a sitting position and takes a look around. ]

...how does anyone get that much steel?

[ He's no weaponsmith, but he's gathered as much from Daniel that there's a lot of work involved. ]
