Chapter 1: The Arrival

"I hate this place."

AJ watches Dalton, taking notice of the blood continuing to pour out. Her hand comes to rest on the back of her head, staring at it with concern. That heat is building up again. Different somehow.

"Hang on, I think I can do something?"

The questioning tone voiced her own uncertainty, but her instincts acted for her. She inches forward, reaching out to his wound. An ethereal yellow-orange glow emanated from her hand. Wisps of flame licked harmlessly at his puncture and laceration. It did not burn. It was a comforting, purifying heat. The injuries faded in its presence.

"I thought we had a tick problem back home," Novak said, attempting a lighter tone despite the grim situation. Looking at Dalton, he added, "Try not to charge into too many situations here, my friend. I know it must feel great to do all that kung fu stuff, but you're not invincible, and I'd hate to lose you."

Chapter 1: The Arrival

Just when Dalton was about to panic concerning the deep gash in his leg, AJ stepped forward and healed him. The vibrant power flooded into him, pushing away all the pain he had suffered so far.

He looked at AJ as the pain melted away, "Thank you. I thought maybe I'd loose that leg after that. Hopefully I won't be adding Lyme to my Tetanus."

Dalton slowly wipes off the combination of tick and his own blood, which was revolting on multiple levels. There was still a separated feeling, like this was a dream, it just did not make any sense at all. Maybe a VR first person video game - he was here, but he was also not here.

He shook his head slowly, responding to Novac, "Better me than you, right? he laughed weakly. "I don't know - my normal reaction would be to scream and run, I'm really not that brave, never been a dare devil or anything. But its like a reflex - I don't know its more than muscle memory - this guy - whoever I am now - just goes for it."

Dalton looked at his slightly cleaner hands - "I don't know what that last bit was - felt like I could have punched through a wall - mostly desperation."

"I could definitely use a drink - Al can the plants tell you where some fresh water is?"

"I don't think anyone should die here," Novak said, his gaze darting nervously around. "We'll find a way out. First, we need water, then we need to find that town. We have daylight now, and I definitely don't want to be out here after dark."

OOC:

i just want to check if i can get any sense of direction or if i can find signs indicating were water could be found

Chapter 1: The Arrival

With a bit of searching around, Novac is able to locate a small stream trickling through the jungle. The water looks clear and safe enough to drink. Indeed, several monkeys nearby are doing just that, scooping water into their hands and bringing it to their mouths.

"You're welcome. It's great to see this fire can do more than incinerate things."

AJ smiles and gives a Dalton a slap on the back before following after Novac. Arriving at the stream, she bends down to splash some into her face before drinking from it.

"Oh god yes. This'll hopefully get us the rest of the way to that town. Hopefully they're friendly?"

Dalton laughed, "I won't lie, I was worried that was going to be one of those "cauterize" burn it shut moments. Glad it turned out different. He pulled up the leg of his torn jeans, "Damn - doesn't even look like a scar." He then removed the bandage on his previous cut to see that wound was also healed. "Good as new apparently."

As the stream was found, Dalton moved to a spot down stream, soaked his previous bandage and washed the remnants of the tick off, trying to keep most of the gunk out of the water. "Too bad none of us was backpacking with a tent and canteen."

A little cleaner, Dalton moved back upstream to get a fresh drink.

After drinking his fill and eyeing the monkeys suspiciously, Novak said, "If everyone's ready, we should move on. I don't want to cause alarm, but I don't trust those monkeys."

"As long as we’re not on their turf, I think it should be fine."

Al said that automatically, tuning back into the conversation he had been absentmindedly following along with.

"Cmon Al, gotta stay focused!"

"I appreciate you finding the stream, Novak. Lets us clear our heads.

That healing was definitely impressive, AJ. Just so you all know, I think I can also use the earth to help with any wounds."

OOC:

I have a cantrip that can substitute a healer’s toolkit to attempt a Treat Wounds action.

Chapter 1: The Arrival

Taking a long drink, Dalton sat back for a moment, ran his wet hands through his hair. "Good to know Al - I have a feeling we might need it - or at least I will. I used to know a lot of first aid, but not much to do with sticks and dirt.

It would be nice to reach the village without something else trying to eat us. We should definitely keep going as long as we can."

Dalton stood up and appeared ready to leave once everyone was ready.

"Yeah, I was worried about burning you as well, to be honest haha. But it was weird. Something just told me it would be okay. And it's good to hear we've got someone else with healing ability too! I don't think I can do that an unlimited amount of times."

In tandem with Novac, AJ also glanced at the monkeys after cleaning herself up some.

"It sounds like we're all on the same page though. As much as I'd like to crash, we need to keep going. My feet are killing me. These shoes were not meant for the jungle."

The HeyDudes she is wearing have just as many snags and holes as her shirt now does. They are also soaked completely through by mud and jungle moisture.

Chapter 1: The Arrival

The monkeys suddenly look up from the stream. Hooting and hollering, they rush off into the jungle. A moment later, you hear rustling in the undergrowth, then a half-dozen people step out all around you. They are taller than average humans, lean and well-muscled. They have pointed ears, jet black eyes, black hair, and dark brown skin. White paint adorns their faces, and their green and brown clothing blends in with the surrounding foliage.

Perhaps of most immediate concern, they have their bows drawn and arrows nocked, pointed in your direction! They eye you warily.

"Ah shit ," Novak muttered, slowly dropping his hatchet and raising his hands. "I knew those monkeys were trouble." He hissed to the others, "We're done for." Then, addressing the strange, pointy-eared man, he said, "We mean no harm."

Chapter 1: The Arrival

Dalton raised his hands in the universal symbol of 'I surrender, please don't hurt me'

"It is possible they are from the village we are headed to."

He also looked at the figures with the bows. "We are lost and looking for some help?"

While his hands were up with no weapon, he knew that he did not need one and that several of his new friends seemed to have magic which also did not rely on a weapon. Should things go badly, they might still be able to hold their own, but those bows could do a lot of damage quickly and they were easily outnumbered.

Chapter 1: The Arrival

One of the group, a man set apart from the others by his gold jewelry and bracers, steps forward holding his palms open at his sides to show he is unarmed. He wears armor made from iron and wooden plates that have been wrapped in colorful swatches of cloth. The sides of his head are shaved, and the rest of his hair is woven into long, thin braids. The rest of the elves relax the draw of their bowstrings and put their weapons at rest, though their arrows remained nocked, ready to fire quickly.

The elf in gold jewelry stops a respectful distance away and gives a very slight bow. "I am Jahsi, of the Leopard Clan," he says, speaking in an accent. Though the words sound strange, somehow you can understand them. "My mother is of the River Clan. You do not look like you belong here. Who are you, and where did you come from?"

Novac, keeping his hands up just to be safe, says, "You can say that again." He looked at the man and continued, "You're right, we don't belong here. Wherever 'here' is. We woke up at that temple area; we don't even know each other. We're just looking for a village or something to find out where we are and find our way home."

Chapter 1: The Arrival

Hands immediately went up, just like the others. Although this new body with new talents might be more adept at dealing with dangerous situations, the only thought that bubbled up in AJ's mind was that of a single arrow finding itself in her neck or eye. What a joke it would be to get teleported to a fantasy land with magical powers just to die from a stray arrow... She would nod in agreement as the others declared the group's desire for help and pure intentions. Seeing the bowstrings go lax and respect given from what she presumed was their leader allowed her breaths to escape more easily.

"What he said. We're not from here, and we have no idea how we got here. I'd offer a mutual bow of respect, but I'm afraid my legs might give out if I try. We just want to find a way out of this dangerous jungle and potentially get back home. Which for me, is a place called Indiana."

"In-di-an-a," Jahsi says, testing the unfamiliar word. "I do not know this place. You are in Ekujae lands, in the Mwangi Jungle. Our village is nearby. Akrivel. My daughter is our linguist, and she knows much of the world beyond this jungle. If your intentions are peaceful, I will take you to her."
