[Closed] Exploration Log: Eastern Steppes
Who: Raine Sage, Waver Velvet, Sophia Nate, Harry Dresden
What: Examining an mystery ruin in the Eastern Steppes
When: Late June/Early July
Where: Eastern Steppes
Warnings: For squishy mages and possibly ruin mania
[The past few weeks had been filled with a certain trepidation toward what was to come from the war.
At the same time, Raine still had that odd paper that had been left to her by no less than the ghost of the Savior herself. It almost felt akin to a superstition, having something like that still left unexplored in a time when things seemed dire for the world as they knew it. In a sense, it was the day of Fire's celebration that served as a reminder that while they were waiting for the eventual strike from their enemies, they didn't have to sit on their hands the entire time either.
Friends were called, preparations were made and others were reached out to for potential backup.
Which led them now to the Eastern Steppes, following Yuuna's prepared map from months before. So far there hadn't been too much trouble, as the small group drew closer to their intended destination, eventually arriving at the base of the strange outcropping. There should be some man-made ruins nearby...]
Fascinating...!
[And unfortunately for everyone, Raine has gotten just a little bit ahead, as just being near the area set off that dangerous curiosity of hers, to the dismay of her Pokemon companions.] A formation like this in the middle of nowhere... it must be hiding something!
(ooc: Please add Pokemon in the top line! I will do so on my next reply as well.)

....he's got a brain full of this. As does Waver from his analysis. GJ guys.
Meanwhile, just beyond the door, Raine will find what looks to have previously been a mural, but the tiles have been gouged at with what looks like gigantic claws of some sort, so pieces have fallen to the ground. It looks like there's enough of them to reconstruct, if anyone were so inclined. And not, you know. Worried about what made the gashes. ]

[ That mural catches her eye immediately, as she quickly rushes over to study the tiles. ]
Watch where you step! There might be more of this mural scattered on the ground! These markings... this image was purposely destroyed, but why?
[She focuses her attention on analyzing the remaining portion of the mural and trying to gauge how many of those pieces were salvageable. ]
no subject
Setting the fur down and straightening up, he glances back toward Waver and Sophia.]
Did you two get that?
[Mouse steps up beside Raine, eyeing the claw marks on the ruined mural and huffing. He sniffs at the marks then raises his head, turning from side to side to see if the scent of whatever made them is on the air.]
no subject
[Waver complained halfheartedly before trudging in after Raine to see what she was getting excited about. Something about that image felt a little to...sugary for his tastes.
The small consolation here, though, was that the pokemon lurking nearby might not even be that big of a threat.]
no subject
[Evidently she didn't pick up on whatever it is the boys have, even as she stows a fragment of shell into one of the pouches on her belt and straightens up.
She hears the delight in Raine's voice, however, and immediately steps towards her, noting how Ouka slicks her ears back at the gouge marks in the wall then heads a little further down the corridor. Not too far, mind you, she stays in view. But the Lucario wishes to be prepared.
Though who knows what for.
Sophia does stop to reach and touch at the marks on the wall, fingers not quite making contact, before she glances down. Gebo, ever underfoot, is delicately nudging fragments right side up with her paw. All the better to see what colours there may be. ]
Maybe some extra light will help. [not that it's dark, yet, but a bit of extra light never hurt anyone. Right? She calls upon Flash anyway, balancing the sphere of light that forms on the flat of her palm] Just how far does this stretch..?
