WEEK 4 INVESTIGATION

[killerwaves]

INVESTIGATION

Did you enjoy your musical serenade last week? Depending on where you find yourself this bright and sunny morning, you might be getting an encore of a different sort, in the theater.

Are you having the time of your life? Someone is, or more accurately, was if the trend from the last weeks hold. There's not even any extraneous noise to interrupt the musical marathon; the snap and pressure release of past weeks is notably absent, so maybe it's not the time to continue the party scene yet... Those on Dodo will be able to spot the warping haze stretched past the aquarium and almost to the theater by the time they make it outside, while those on Sungem and Seagull will also be able to spot the phenomenon encroaching on the shore from the ocean. Hm.

"Anybody could be that guy ♫"

(( OOC: Welcome to your third investigation, stay hydrated and refreshed ☆ ))

[ It's fine :')

Going back to the damage rock formations, you have a nice array of scorched marks, some holes that look rather laser like, and some general shockwave looking damage going on. It's a mess!

The damage looks to go all the way up to the top of the waterfall. ]

[gluttoning]

[Are we gonna have to take a hike/climb up to the top... smh he's too hungry for this.

Does it look like the damage came from any particular direction, or is it too hard to tell?]

[killerwaves]

[ It's too hard to tell. Ganba Beel... ]

[gluttoning]

[Sighs.

There's a nice burst of demonic energy as he switches forms again, calling over his shoulder to Temenos.]

Stay here. I'll be right back.

[Time to take a climb. If he can use his flight in bursts, he will, but otherwise, eh, he's just getting his workout for the day.]

[killerwaves]

[ See that's the way to look at it! Welcome to the top of the waterfall. He'll be able to tell right away that there's more damage to the rock face here (of the same variety) than there is below. ]

[gluttoning]

[Horrible!

Time to take a look around the general leap of faith area, then. Is the mechanical scent still strong up here? Is there any trace of that blue liquid?]

[killerwaves]

[ It's still present but less strong than it was down below. That's probably because while there's the blue liquid around, there's not nearly as much as there is below where Temenos is poking around.

Also while he's here looking around, he will spot an object on the ground for his efforts! ]

[gluttoning]

[Object...

Beel puts it directly into his m--- no I'm kidding. Time to take a closer look, what do we got, and where exactly is it?]

[killerwaves]

[ It is a u-pinion device which much like the harpoons, has also seen better days. ]

[gluttoning]

[RIP poor knock-off cellphone.

Can it still power on? If so, can he see whose this was, what username is displayed, or if there's any messages that can be viewed?]

[killerwaves]

[ Given it's pretty damaged with a crack in the screen, it's not surprise that it doesn't turn on. ]

[gluttoning]

[Oh. Super ultra RIP.

Gonna pull out his own D.D.D. to take a clear photo of where this thing was dropped in comparison to the mouth of the waterfall and the cliff for jumping down. Was it out on the rock? In the foliage somewhere nearby?

Once he's got that picture, he's gonna get a couple more photos of the damage up here. Same question as below, since it's heavier damage, is there any indication of where it came from? Is it just more damage out over the edge of the waterfall, or is it also on the cliffside leading up to it as well?]

[killerwaves]

[ It's closer to the cliff for the jump down than the mouth of the waterfall itself. It was also out on the rock, in relatively plain sight as opposed to in a bush or patch of grass.

As for the general damage, there's no clear indication where it came from, but the damage does go from the cliffside (top) down the traverse of the rocky part of the waterfall to the pool below. ]

[gluttoning]

[Anything in the water up here?

If not, time to descend and see if there's anything noticeable from a top down view while he's making his way back down to the crystal pool.]

[killerwaves]

[ Nothing in the water up here! As he flies down (and likely waves to Temenos) he will see some glinting in the pool below; they're pretty small which explains why he didn't necessarily see them when he was harpoon dredging earlier, but the rays of the sun help him out here. ]

[gluttoning]

[Oh, a shiny.

Is it somewhere in the shallows just like the harpoons, or will he need to dive?]

[killerwaves]

[ In the shallows with the harpoons! Going to go scooping again? ]

[gluttoning]

[Yep! Time to drop right into the shallows before he forgets where he saw those shiny things. Using his hands here to feel around if he has to.]

[killerwaves]

[ He'll come up with little pieces metal, very obviously not harpoon metal by the color which includes some dark navy in addition to your standard silver metal color. ]

[gluttoning]

[Huh. How little is little, and how much of it is there around here?]

[killerwaves]

[ There's slivers really, and honestly there's not that much or Beel would have spotted it earlier when he went in for the harpoons. ]

[gluttoning]

[Noted...

Wings aren't needed now that he's back on solid ground, so he lets his form switch back with the pieces in hand, depositing those next to the harpoons. One last place to check, since he knows he can swallow this water without getting sick.

Time to take a deep breath and go take a quick dive and look at those crystals and say hello to the fish (boy they look delicious, hello fish). Anything of note under the water from a reasonable distance?]

[killerwaves]

[ The fish quake in fear, knowing.

But nope there's nothing down in the water besides future fishsticks so be free and get yourself some snacks Beel. ]

[gluttoning]

[fish break :)

Several fish are dead.]

[dupiety]

[Hey, he's not going to complain about not having to do a workout.

Anyway he's watching respectfully.]
