Camp Half-Blood- a Percy Jackson Tavern

Quote from Redpelt >>

Vaughn is by the lake, their spear again always within arm’s reach. They aren’t wearing their helmet and appear to be relaxing by the water, looking up at the sky.

 Make a survival check. The area around looks.. bloody, the sand scuffled, a bloodied tooth buried in the ground. Some creatures were locked in a battle here.

Survival: 17

Vaughn picks up the tooth and examines it curiously, careful not to stain their hands with any blood.

 They’re able to piece together a bit of the scene. Deep, wide spread tracks suggest something quadrupedal leaped from the treeline, attacking someone, likely a camper, and they had a very close-up brawl. The tooth was probably dislodged by a blunt weapon - it’s an incisor, so a very heavy blow to the side of the snout. They can’t tell who escaped from this battle, but there’s no body.

 Vaughn runs their hands across the ground lightly, feeling for hairs pulled or fallen out during the scrap, and sees if they can discern marks that could indicate a body was dragged away - smudged footprints, blood smeared instead of spattered, and the like. They roll their spear to within even easier reach with one leg, frowning at the tree line.

The lake, dyes slightly with blood, lies empty this morning.. The bodies gone, the animals gone, the silence deafening. The sea and beach, on the other hand, are dyed a greener color than usual, filled with blooming algae, and countless siren corpses... Moved overnight, protecting the freshwater of the camp, but causing the sea to be likely unsafe... Makana sits on the lake, silently and blankly staring at the waters. Seeming... Calm, for now..

Wren is going on a morning jog around camp, humming along to a song in her earbuds so quietly its impossible to tell what song it may be

Vin is in the library, looking for books on curses, especially related to camp and the underworld

Roulette is coiled outside the remains of Hermes cabin, seeming very sad

 *If anyone is up for rp I got a couple hours :))*

 *I'll try to in a little bit, not really feeling it rn, you know? Oh also I'm not trying to fail any of my classes, I've got work to do.*

 *Fair nuff!*

 Somebody happens to be following them, though they try to remain hidden, not heard or seen, more just the presence felt. Stealth:22

 Enrique has wandered over to the ashes, looking down at them, and Roulette, just a lil saddened by seeing sadness.

The snake looks over at him a moment, but puts its head down on the table, too tired to move much

 As said, they can't see whatever is following them.

 He walks over, sitting in front of the snake, looking at them with sad eyes before holding out a warm palm in a friendly manner.

 "... Hello..? Someone there..?"

The snake slowly puts its head in his hand, its tongue going in and out sniffing him

 An arrow lands at their feet with a note on it. Stealth to go back to hiding:16

 He smells like sulfur, just a little bit. He pets the snake with a smile that doesn't reach the sadness in his eyes.

 *Beaten by her passive, which is what matters for retaking the hide action* She looks over at Matilda, as she picks up the note, opening it "Afternoon... You know you couldve just came up and talked..? But letter works, I guess!"

The snake partially wraps around his wrist, gently moving back and forth, like a small rocking

 It reads 'Not here to threaten you, probably.' She crosses her arms, looking huffy as she sits down on a high up tree branch, "Hey, afternoon to you too." She looks away from them, looking at the clouds.

 He laughs, starting to feel a bit happier at each little rocking "You are a nice one, aren't you?" He chuckles.

 "Probably?" She chuckles "Well thats good to hear. Names Wren, by the way! Aphrodite kid. You new?"

It doesnt seem to know how to respond, just staying rocking sadly for now

 "Matilda, Hunter of Artemis. Yes." She says, taking the string off of her bow to stop the strain.

 He pulls them closer, cradling them a bit more, rocking along with them as he sighs, keeping his warmth steady.

 "Nice to meet ya! Wanna join me? Im about halfway through my jog, currently"

A few minutes later, the snake moves back to the table, rearranging its body to seem to try to make letters 'W-...-Y   Y-O-U   S-A-D'

 He watches them curiously, taking a moment to nod, "I am sad because you are, whoever you are. Why are you sad, snake friend?"

It pauses 'N-...-W   O-W-N-...-.....   D-I-.....' (Different number of dots is different missing letter thats hard to read)

 She nods, before beginning to sprint rapidly down the trail.

 *Oh I could tell, just using context clues.* He thinks for a moment, trying to deem what they are saying before frowning, "I'm so very sorry for you... I apologize for bringing it up."

 "oH!!" Wren seems surprised at first, before also sprinting

*Yup!! Thats the point, is to let yall use context to learn new letters :))* 'N-O     Y-O-U   O-...-A-Y            M-I-S-S  ...-E-R' The snake looks down sadly 'L-A-...-E   M-O-N-S-...-E-R-S'

 Matilda is moving fast, (90ftPR), occasionally looking back to them.

 *Ah, I love learning new letters.*

 He holds out a hand for them again, "I'm sorry that you lost your owner, even if I could've have done anything to help, do you know what happened to the lake monsters?"
