[So it is still raining for sure, and if anyone BOTHERS TO CHECK, they will notice that the water level of Level 2 has risen considerably...

But if you aren't bothering with that shit, levels 3 and 4 are pretty much per usual.

However, if you are one of the people working on Level 5, or maybe just enjoying a walk in the rain and mud, or maybe you just heard there was something weird found upstairs...

What you will arrive at is a very strange grove. A circle of 8 large trees that look very much like dead, twisted, dry wood. Quite an odd sight in a forest usually full of too much life. Stranger still, nothing but a bit of moss and vines are growing in the circle of the grove. The dead trees stretch high into the air, and sometimes they are hard to spot, but a few odd looking, but colorful wind chimes hang from the dry branches here, and over there, some ripe looking, swollen red fruit about the size and shape of a mango.]


((OOC: General mingle, but there will be a thread for exploring the grove!))

[thanks Sherlock. it does mean popping open the portal is easier at least.]

Hopefully that won't startle Dr. Watson.

I'm certain he'll get used to it.

Re: [Level 5 Grove Exploration]

[confirmed_bachelor]

... well. Yes. Likely he's heavily inured to such things already.

[closes the portal once all the bones are through]

Re: [Level 5 Grove Exploration]

[not_one_of_them]

Can't imagine why.

[stands straight back up again, taking one last glance around, spinning to look at every corner of the place, coat tails swinging around a bit]

Re: [Level 5 Grove Exploration]

[confirmed_bachelor]

A few reasons.

[watches him take it in]

[NOTHING SPECIAL OR NEW TO NOTE. There are probably quiet a few sets of bones at the base of the trees, more so than in the trees. it's obvious that the ones that were better preserved in plastic or strung up with chains stood the test of time better]

[nods to himself, turns to head back the way they came]

[follows after, holding what he didn't deposit in the flat ahead of them]

That was rather more interesting than I'd anticipated.

Re: [Level 5 Grove Exploration]

[not_one_of_them]

It was certainly new.

[taking out the cut up fruit bits he had in his pocket, poking at it with his knife ... who the hell know how he doesn't trip to run into something like that]

[well John's here to make sure he doesn't walk into a wall, anyway]

... Let's get that purified on the way back.
