EVENT: ORIGIN'S ORIGINS

[fairwind]

Who: explorers!
When: Day 31, night
Where: The Jungle

[The sun has gone down when the heroes receive an unmarked message:

This Star has secrets you should know. If you want to find them, follow the light.

Should they look outside, they will in fact see a light -- a thin but bright pillar rising from the overgrown town out in the jungle.

It's still raining, still covered in frogs, but there's definitely something going on.

And in the direction of the beach, there's also a faint, bell-like ringing. But that's not what's calling you right now... is it?]

...Are you injured? You don't seem to be alright.

[rolebreaker]

.... I'm fine. [ curt. not exactly sharp, just. ]

I made it out. ... my teammate didn't.

[desirestruth]

...[She follows his gaze to the vines. Plant matter is usually not a problem, but she suspects this won't be that easy.

Still, she has to try, doesn't she?]

Stand back. I cannot guarantee this will work.

[rolebreaker]

[ .... i mean sure okay. but. ]

She's already dead.

[desirestruth]

...The train's medical pods should be able to revive her. But I don't know if they require the body or not.

[There's a thrum of power as she concentrates on the plants--the other ones in the area all bend under her will, the underbrush sliding politely out of her way, but the ivy...

well. No dice.]

It seems we'll have to hope it does not.

[rolebreaker]

... some kind of kinesis over plants. [ mutters. well. ]

You're late. It's useless now.

[desirestruth]

Life energy. Plants are living things like any other...or they're supposed to be, anyway. [She doesn't really seem bothered by his harshness...after all, he's not wrong.]

If you're not injured, I'd suggest getting farther from this jungle. We don't need more bodies.

[rolebreaker]

[ ... ha. ]

That's not any of your concern. I can hold my own.
