Rumor of the Gemstones: Exploration Edition

[Omeganitros]

I don't read anyone else's posts or what happens to other ppl in drizzle's posts. It feels like screen-watching.

gold stinger becomes delirious from the prolonged exposure to sunlight and lack of civilization, so he decides to kick himself in the head. In retrospect, it was a pretty difficult feat to accomplish, but after numerous attempts he somehow twists and maneuvers his body into some sort of pretzel-shaped fetal position and triumphs. However, he becomes slightly anemic, so he proceeds by tearing off the bottom section of his shirt to use as a bandage for his recent head injury. Afterwards, he undoes his shoelace from his left shoe and ties it around his bandage so that the bandage stays in place and because he would like protection from the sun and he 'thinks it makes him look like an awesome desert bandit'... *ahem* Anyway, he checks the grass in his pocket for any irregularities, but it appears to be ordinary grass. Lastly, he determines the wind direction by putting his finger in his mouth to collect saliva and holding it up while throwing some more grass into the air. He discovers that the wind is blowing from the west and blowing towards the east.

Meanwhile, Guest15937 continues traveling towards the sleeping golem's head. Along the way, he spots a white rabbit in the distance.

MracY asks the young man, "what do you mean, don't remember where you grew up? If it's so famous, wouldn't lots of people visit?" The young man replies, "Visit? Do you have a screw lose in your head or somethin'? Of course it's famous; it's where we've always lived! Don't you remember? We always sleep in the sleeping house near the airplane ride. We have all slept in this amusement park since we were born; there's no other place you could have gone!" After the chat between MracY and the man, MracY decides to pet the tiger on the platform near the roller coaster in the distance. However, he cannot travel that far in one day, and he only ends up in the area he originally spawned from.

Omega becomes weary from his lack of progress and sighs unenthusiastically. He attempts to enter room 101 after DarkManticore, but unfortunately for him the door has mystically resealed itself shut. Omega then enters room 104, the room with the vines and symbols of nature. The door disappears behind him, and he finds himself in the midst of thick, grassy plains laid out before him in all directions. Above him, the sun shines overhead with a clear, blue sky.

Too late to get an update for me?

-Swim over to investigate the glowing algae. Poke it with something nearby, and investigate the thing I poked it with. If the thing I poked it with starts glowing, coat both my hands in the algae and then swim into the nearby cave.

I'm sorry, but you'll have to wait until tomorrow night.

[Omeganitros]

Beautiful weather! Kinda hard to tell east/west/north/south with the sun directly overhead though.

Hey, I should check what's in my pockets.

I take a biiig breath of fresh air, run my fingers through the tall grass, and lay down relaxing for an hour to see how the sun's position has changed in an hour so I can get my bearings.

(This is assuming it really is just nothing but the same grassy plains in every direction as far as the horizon. If you were waiting for me to look around to say there's something close by...assume I look around every action)

Moonwalk west and drag feet in the ground heavily to make a visible trail to re-trace my steps since placing down grass didn't work.

[Guest15937]

See if I can gather any useful information from the presence/actions of the rabbit, then keep going towards the head.

Will you please be more specific towards how you would like to interact with the white rabbit?

[Guest15937]

Uhh...look at it, see what it's doing, see its reaction to the gigantic golem near it? Not like I can do much else, it's in the distance, like off the golem, right?

[MracY]

I head toward the sleeping house near the airplane ride, and search it carefully.

No, I meant it's about twenty feet in front of you.

I'll try to be more specific in the future.

[Guest15937]

OK, in that case, I follow behind the rabbit and see if it leads me to something interesting.

[drizzleRomanceGirl]

DarkManticoreX2 swims to the glowing algae and proceeds to poke it with the seaweed he finds nearby. However, nothing spectacular happens, and the seaweed stays the same color aqua it was before. However, he observes that the glowing algae is ready to be taken from the coral reef.

Omeganitros thinks to himself, "what beautiful weather!" Omega decides to check what's inside his pockets, but the only thing he finds is empty space. Afterwards, he decides to take a deep breathe, run his fingers through the tall grass, and relax for an hour or so.~ Omega feels refreshed after his relaxation and looks up at the sky. He notices that the sun is setting to his left, and the sun always sets in the west.

gold stinger moonwalks in the soil beneath the grassy field in such a way that he leaves visible trail marks through the ground. He then travels westward in a heroic manner towards the setting sun, gracefully dragging his legs through the dirt.

Guest15937 decides to follow the white rabbit, and it hops backwards towards the path he already walked from.

MracY heads toward the resting house near the airplane ride. Once he arrives, he searches the entire sleeping ward for anything of interest. He spots about 150 fluffy cotton beds total lined up in rows of fifteen. He also sees a few windows with pink and white curtains, wooden walls, a wooden ceiling. Regretfully, he does not find anything out of the ordinary. However, he stumbles upon the caretaker of the house. She possesses a medium build with a fair complexion and blue eyes. She greets MracY by saying, "hello! It's nice to see you back. Will you be retiring to your bed early today?"

[Guest15937]

I keep following the rabbit. It probably knows the golem better than I do :P

[MracY]

I tell the lady that I'm hungry, and feel like having a meal.
I consequently ask her to join me (for a meal).

Regardless of the outcome, I try and ask about the interesting attractions in the theme park,
and afterwards ask her where "my" belongings are, as "I seem to have lost some things".

[gold stinger]

examine my current surroundings.

yell to see if anyone can hear me.

[DarkManticoreX2]

I take the glowing algae in my hands and proceed to head over to the cave and investigate, using the algae as my light source.

[Omeganitros]

Well then! Now I've got my bearings, which way to go...? Ah, I know. The surroundings may be nothing but the same rolling grass, but what about sources of sound? I cup my hands to my ears and spin like a radar dish.

If I hear anything unique (signs of life, civilization, etc) coming from a general direction I'll head that way. Otherwise, I'll head, hmmmmmm, let's say East, putting the sun to my back. My front has gotten enough of a tan, yeah?

[drizzleRomanceGirl]

I'm sorry I didn't update the thread last night; I was celebrating my birthday with my family.

I'll update the game tonight.

Remind me never to make baseless statements like this again. *sigh*

[Omeganitros]

Happy birthday! I say happy birthday for my action.
