After the turn of the year, I intend to mount an expedition to the Lost City of Memories in the Summer segment.

Naturally this would be a task best not attempted alone.

If you would be interested in accompanying me, this will be the only time that I raise the matter.

[So, ask now, or he'll go without you.]




(( ooc: there will be an ooc post about this at some point in January o7 ))

[dregs]

Depending on when it'd be I'd be interested.

{ unfortunately no one is with him to stop him from signing up to another one of these and the thrillseeker side of him can't stop won't stop. }

I wouldn't want to double book, but the place does sound intriguing. Any reason you chose that one in particular?

[linguaphilia]

There will be some time needed for preparation and research first.

It's said to be a place of scholars. You might understand my interest from that alone.

[dregs]

Of course. Does the library have some records on it? Though I've learned sometimes even being prepared won't always help. There's always something you don't account for. I went to Liar's Mansion around a month ago, most of it wasn't really related to lying anymore, it seemed more like it had been taken over by someone else.

And that says more than enough, yes. Hopefully it's a fruitful trip in that case. Are you hoping to find something in particular while there?

[linguaphilia]

It does, though sparse ones, as with many records of the areas outside of Nightwake now marked 'unexplored'. I would hope to be able to unearth more information on the place while I'm there, though I can't say I'm looking for anything in particular.

And I'm not sure why one would expect a place called 'Liar's Mansion' to be what the name made it seem.

…I wish you the best of luck.

[linguaphilia]

No interest in the prospect?

[balloontiful]

Maybe in the future. But as of now, no. Not really.

[linguaphilia]

I see.

If you would like to be apprised of the results I will be making a full report on our return.

[leucosis]

I appreciate your straightforward approach here.

I would be interested in going.

[linguaphilia]

I see little use in adding unnecessary information.

And having another scholar along should be of some use.

[leucosis]

I would hope so. I'm curious and have been wanting to explore. Do you know when you'd like to go or just as soon as we get an appropriate number of people?

[aedeselysiae]

I'll go. Some of these places are more dangerous than I first suspected, but at least I know that now.

[linguaphilia]

Knowledge of that kind gained too late is better than not at all. Though it can be a harsh lesson.

[aedeselysiae]

It was a harsh lesson, indeed. All we can do now is not make the same mistakes in the future, and assume that even an innocuous place such as a kitchen can be deadly.

[starwill]

I've been interested in seeing the Lost City of Memories myself, so count me in.

[linguaphilia]

Do you have a specific interest in the place, or just general curiosity?

[starwill]

It's the former.

[snekeyes]

That sounds interesting. Is there something in particular you are looking for there?

[linguaphilia]

I have an interest in what the scholars who lived there studied. Aside from that, I understand that expeditions to such places often turn up unexpected information.

[snekeyes]

Yes, that has been my experience from the previous expeditions that I have been on.

...I would be interested in accompanying you, if you need another combatant.

[She wouldn't normally jump in on a random expedition (even if this is someone she's probably seen/spoken to at the library from time to time, she didn't recognise the username), but it had been a while, and she was getting restless. Besides, it sounded interesting!]

[worshipmytruename]

if you are braving the more untamed lands of this realm
having an ally experienced with the unforgivable wilderness would be a boon.
like me.

[linguaphilia]

Are you offering services as a bodyguard?

[worshipmytruename]

if you need to use my body as armor i can make that happen. i can provide many services for your caravan.

[laterose]

Oh, an adventure and an exploration! Could I join you as well?

Any adventuring party always needs a capable healer! Besides, it also sounds like it will quite informative.

[linguaphilia]

You'd be welcome on both counts. I expect we will run into trouble - these expeditions are not known for running smoothly.
