...Ah—ah'mnaesayen'thateixpleteve, ahdunn—! eugh...

(Remembers what Audrey said, long ago, and hurriedly scrawls something down on a blank page of her notes, showing it to Graves.)

Is it feasible to set up a watchtower for my scoped weapon?

(just looking... increasingly defeated as the moments pass...)

Fucksville, I do not like personally myself. Too much profanity in said name!

-BB is the first one to cross the threshold into the city-

-it's quite abandoned even now-

-shadows lurk at every corner, receding from vision as you turn to look at them-

Hmm... a tower, you write? Well, we ought to then find a tower to set up as our defensive cordon, no?

-as it so happens, they can see a guard tower up ahead-

-Roger is peeping around the place-

We will require roughly sixty to eighty square metres to establish a solid perimeter with ample space for storage and sleep.

What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?

"Long as there's 'nuff room for all of us that sounds fine by me!" Sam chimes up cheerfully, still carrying around her extremely heavy backpack without complaint.

AAAA!!!

-fumbles to throw a knife at Nephew, but it bounces off of his armor-

...Oh, it is another expeditioner! Could you pick that up for me please.

-BB's phone flashlight illuminates a desiccated corpse chained up against a wall as she turns-

-this city, Autonoe, looks to be made of brick hewn from the stone itself, though it's fallen into disrepair and disuse-

-these seem to be the houses for the lower-class inhabitants, they're single-story affairs mostly and seem to have withstood the passage of time poorly-

-there's hardly any life down here, not even subterranean creatures-

-Autonoe might not notice this, but some others might, that this city looks roughly analogous to that of ancient Mesopotamia-

-Tilts his head appraisingly at the tower-

...Yeah, I can deal with something that tall. I'll go scope it out real quick.

-Puts his luggage down and shoots a web at the tower, tugging at it experimentally to see if it's stable enough to zip to-

Turning to look at the newcomer, Sam's eyes come to look at the corpse, "Oh well would you look at that. Anyone here know enough medicine to guess the age of that corpse?"

Lina seems sick to her stomach. She's got a bad feeling about this whole thing, but she doesn't want to spit it out because it'd ruin the whole thing. She unzips her "robe" and brings out her spellbook, earmarking some spells for defensive use.

Looking up when she heard screaming,
AAGH WHAT IS THAT?!

What's wrong— oh.

(Akebono... covers her mouth with her hand, but tries to keep it cool)

Yeah, uh... any other way to go that's not that way?

(@Sam) I'll t-try my, um, best. (uses her degree in Alchemy to gauge the corpse's age.)

-this corpse is like a mummy - super desiccated, it could be decades or it could be millennia-

-Spidey's web doesn't yank the tower crashing down - seems sturdy enough-

-i should note that the corpse isn't chained to the tower, just a building in its vicinity-

...Ah...

Well... this is archaeology! We're bound to run into a few skeletons, I bet!

-Webzips up the tower, giving it all a look-see-
