Day 244 :: This is not a proper wasteland, damnit! [OPEN]
Who: Maya Schroedinger and anyone
Open: Open
When: Day 244
Where: Around the monument
What: Maya Schroedinger tries tosteal inspect the monument.
Format: Will match yours.
Warnings: N/A
It hadn't been Maya's day, that was for sure. Waking up in what looked like a dried-up wasteland was, well, normal for her. Not waking up with her team at her side, however, was not.
Nor was discovering that the world had been torn apart, that there were only patches left! And the only remotely stable place might as well be on another continent, with the constant shifting of this sorry excuse of 'ground'!
Traversing this all had been a much needed distraction, though. It had forced her to move ever forward, to put her worries about Alfred, Todd, even Shady, not to mention Virginia and some others on the back of her mind.
And it had left her angry, really angry. Her only wish: To have a very stern talk with whoever was responsible for this, all of it. And then shoot them in the face!
After quite an odyssey, she had finally arrived at what was apparently called the Bastion. It didn't even look like anything from her world, and the crazy rambling of the only person she had met so far (the poor NPC mentioned in the FAQ) hadn't helped at all. At least he had given her an amulet with a pretty gem embedded into it, that alleviated her mood somewhat. What she had spotted shortly afterwards, though... that was different and immediately distracted her from everything else, including the toll the travel had taken on her.
The monument. Or, rather, the fact that a part of it resembled a large, pretty gem. Pretty much a mystical mega-sized gem, practically asking for her totake embrace it!
And thus, she started circling the monument. Could it be transported? What about the people that no doubt lived in this blasted place? Maybe a distraction would be needed...
[Your character can spot her walking around the monument, poking it, trying to climb it, trying to take a sample, in other words being totally suspicious and/or nuts.
Alternatively, she might spot your character, in which case she'd shout a "Hey, you! Yes, you! Get over here!" and point at them - Maya is anything but shy when it comes to requesting information on gems and gem-like objects!
And she'll likely continue to do all of this even after the first person tries to tell her off. She can be pretty persistent!]

Huh. I guess it's still safer than out there, but it must have taken some serious optimism to rebuild after that one.
no subject
That's why it's best if you just leave it alone.
no subject
WHat is it with gems and gem-like objects having devastating side effects? Sheesh.
no subject

As long as the risks don't include the gem exploding or falling into an endless abyss, I mean.
no subject
[Not that Zuko is the best at following it but she only touched one booby-trapped gemstone okay.]
Caught her there.
[She paused, then raised her voice.]
That-that was what I had been doing there! I was checking if there was danger! I'm not like some novice drifter that puts two gems together that will explode if they ever touch!
no subject
It must not have been much of an explosion.
no subject
And I had warned her about it, too. But no, she didn't listen... Wish she was here so I could chew her out again!
[Well, better be angry about the person responsible than sad she was gone, probably for good... right?]
no subject
[She hasn't mentioned companions before now.]
no subject
Too goody two shoes, always got herself into trouble due to her sense of justice...
