20 - [video] Fog and free meat

[forged_anew]

[The video turns on to show an expanse of fog, moving to point at the ground where something shadowy is visible through the mist]


The fog really does mess with your sense of direction. A minute ago I was only a few steps from Horton... Haru especially, maybe you shouldn't wander around.

Anyway... I found this body. Looks like one of the monsters, but it's pretty badly chopped up. It seemed unusual. Any idea who or what could've done this?


[He takes a few steps closer, nudging the shadow with his foot and panning the camera around. Whatever it had been, it was pretty big, and there were several lumps of it scattered around. Overall, not a pretty sight, and after a few more moments, Zuko turns the camera back towards himself. He's wearing a slightly disgusted expression, but otherwise looks thoughtful]


Anyone want to come over here and help me drag some of this home? I'm not one to refuse free meat.

It is not something you see every day.

[forged_anew]

Exactly. Wonder what could have done it...

Want some?

[eyesofgeass.livejournal.com]

Are you not concerned about getting lost?

[forged_anew]

Well, I didn't expect to end up clear over here when I only went a few steps out of Horton, but I know where I am and I know the layout of the city well.

It might take longer, but I'll get back. Staying close to the buildings is probably a good idea.

Then go ahead and bring some by.

[Oh so amused]

[forged_anew]

Well, I meant did you want to come get some... but okay.

I'll see what I can do.

Zuko, surely you do not think me capable of handling myself nearly as well as what you do out there.

[Half truth. Lulu has a gun and a memorized layout of the city, but eh...]

[forged_anew]

You don't have any martial skills?

[eyesofgeass.livejournal.com]

Battles in my world are not fought by hand.

[forged_anew]

What kind of battles do you have, then?

[eyesofgeass.livejournal.com]

They are all through the means of artillery and various other forms of weaponry. Giant airships. Missiles. Knightmare Frames. Battle at home is no different than working your pieces on the chessboard.

[forged_anew]

We have other kinds of artillery too, but we also have different types of hand to hand combat as well as Bending.

[eyesofgeass.livejournal.com]

I thought as much, considering the nature of the question.

[Very amused]

[forged_anew]

True.

I'm not sure if I can stop by now since several people are helping me carry this, but maybe later today. I'll contact you.
