Seeing kyle set off, HugoLuman starts following. A good walk in any direction under at least the semblance of nice weather seemed fairly appealing after being stuck in a dungeon, though the new sensory input bombarding his brain seemed to be getting even worse "outside."

Arcvasti follows behind HugoLuman.

**Lets not be splitting the party.**

He glances behind him at Zanzetkuken and the rest.

**At least not into groups that are TOO small.**

Do you have anything planned for it? Or can we describe going there?

Also, how far are the double doors we just left from the edge of the dome?

(Hugo asked me this in a message, but this seems to be important to everyone.

The cave entrance that conceals the double doors is roughly 2 kilometers from the edge of the 4 kilometer in radius dome.  The town is roughly in the exact center.  The town is basically an MMO gathering area, having shops, guilds, quests, and other players within.  There's humans in the town, but also what would be described as Orcs, Elves, Dwarves, Khajiit, Trolls, a few Dragons, etc.  Some of whom appear to have rudimentary mechanical body parts replacing limbs.  Only thing I really have planned is a couple conversations centered around my character's storyline, but feel free to write about it.

Do note that there are three districts, a housing, a market, a guild and a production (includes docks).  The market is on the upstream third of the town, covering both sides of the river.  Production covers both sides of the downstream third, and the Guild being between them.  Housing is not along the river, but is instead on the land edge of the other three districts, on both sides.  For those who want a visual, the below map uses the first letter of each district to represent them.

There are a couple watchtowers scattered throughout as well, and the architecture is a mixture of many different styles.  That's all I have to say.)

(Alright, so we're looking at just about under an hour of hiking to get there, barring anything else happening on the way. Fun!)

[[Anyone want to describe the journey or create events that hapen on it? Because otherwise I'm in favour of just skipping straight to the town.]]

(I'd be ok with skipping, with a short description for those who feel like it.)

(Alright, sorry to double post, but I got an idea for an event and it didn't look like anyone else was posting.)

After about 20 minutes of walking down the hillside, they arrived at the edge of the woods. There seemed to be no road or trail, but it wasn't hard to guess which way the town was. They didn't go in far before they found a stream blocking their path though. Just as they were about to step in and wade across, one of them noticed a figure sitting on a large rock in the middle.

**H-Hello? We're probably friendly.**

Arcvasti slowly approaches the rock.

**Even the werewolf. He's mostly sort of still in control of himself. I'm pretty sure we don't mean you any harm. And if we do, its non fatal harm. So just relax and let us pass. Can you even speak? Are you a siren? Another player? Slender? All of the above? Although a mute siren wouldn't be very threatening at all. Anyways, we're not hostile to you at the moment. Just keep that in mind.**

The figure, clad in drooping rags, hardly moves. The face is hidden beneath the large, shabby, wide-brimmed hat. It flicks its fishing rod before it seems to notice. "Try the water. 'S fine, f' fishing."

The shadow clone seems to be standing dazed in the water.

"Well, we'd hate to disturb your fishing sir so why don't yall tell us how ta' git aroun' the river and we can join ya later?"
Kyle says in a startling good southern accent.

It slightly waves the rod towards some small stepping stones approaching the boulder from the other side. From this side, there's only a single stone, about 8 feet from shore, and another 6 feet from the boulder. A couple dazed fish float by. "Who am I?" asks the clone.

"Goes away an' curves a bit. It's a long way 'round, ifn' y' want t' get t' town w'out crossing. Buncha advent'r folk like you, d'n think a lil' stream 'd be much trouble though." One of the dazed fishes sees his hook and absent-mindedly bites it. "Hmmm. Good fish'n"

Kyle dispells the clone before attempting to jump across.

**DON'T TOUCH THAT WATER! I think it turns you into fish or something. Or at least dazes you badly.**

(Funny fact, I rolled for you by jumping onto something small and 8ft away from a flat surface IRL. This may not be the best system.)

 Kyle lands on the small stepping stone, nearly careening right off but somehow managing to counter his momentum by flailing his arms and crouching down. A duck floated by, looking utterly confused.
