The Grotto

Disaster has struck!
Years ago, an earthquake broke open several entrances into a deep, winding series of subterranean systems. It was thought that deep below, underground rivers snaked their way below Moladion. Now, flooding in the Northern reaches of Moladion has proven this theory to be true.

The Grotto is almost entirely submerged. Many of the entrances are completely inaccessible, and those that are only extend a few hundred feet before ending in water. The lower entrances, however, act almost like a giant drain for Moladion. Water pours down into the Grotto's maw as powerful rapids and waterfalls, and large amounts of debris have build up throughout the area. It can be exceptionally dangerous to travel due to the risk of flash-flooding and dams suddenly breaking, but the Grotto does offer the most consistent access across the floodwaters because of those dams.

Note:The Grotto will return to normal once 25 posts have been completed (or at Staff discretion). During this time, new threads will receive a 'Surprise','Disaster', and prizes.

I hear whispers that Kiska is back around the grotto but I haven't come face to face with her yet and I don't know if I want to. I know my heart still beats for her even though it's been broken time and again and my soul is still busted beyond repair after Natalya's death. I know losing them was my fault and maybe I should have made a choice sooner and stuck to it but maybe I was just cursed to end up alone all along. Born alone, die alone. That's an assassin's creed, right? My thoughts have turned to Heyel more and more as of late, a tickling at the back of my throat and a sense of urgency like I should be somewhere. I've paced the dark caverns that I call home time and again, trying to sense where I'm supposed to be but I can't track him, I can't figure out where to go.

And then one day I started hearing his voice and seeing him in my day to day travels and it all made sense. Heyel has found his end and I know it wasn't natural causes. I know his family did this to him, the ones who call us weak for being older. I remember the way Eden looked at me the day I was exiled, the day he was going to help Stella take me out right then for attacking Calliel. I know he would have tracked me down and killed me a long time ago. So he went after Heyel instead. But Heyel tells me Eden didn't give the killing blow. He thinks Edenhas a soft spot for him because he found out he's his dad. It turns out Solaris, the great advisor to Coszcotl himself of Taviora is the one who tasted his grandfather's blood. Interesting twist. At least that's what I told Heyel. We laughed about it all day almost.

Heyel walks beside me now, trying to give me hair care tips even though he knows I'm only half listening. I call him an old bat and he has the gale to look offended but then he points out another bug and starts going on about my hygiene habits in this cave. Subject averted.
