Theme Music is now mandatory

The air grows more humid the further into the tunnel one moves, heated to the point that the walls themselves seem to melt... giving way to solid steel. Five minutes into it, the passage widens out like a fan, opening immensely into a chamber that seems straight out of a volcanic temple.

The clay-brick architecture exists only on the ground, which feels much more dense when one walks on it. Six immense stone spikes carve out an invitation to those who wish to wander around this chamber, maybe hoping to get burned? The chamber itself stretches back immensely far, appearing to occupy one whole slice of the pyramid. The wall behind the group rises straight up, but the back wall in this chamber, as far as the group can see, slants at a sharp angle to meet the other wall behind them.

Occupying the rest of this chamber appears to be a village-sized conglomerate of melted architecture! Regardless of the origin, this whole place looks like a molten city. There are even small lava pools dotting the ground around the entrance to this place, a connect-the-dots puzzle of melted rock surrounding a dead steel city... this place is truly intimidating, but a fit place to adventure for the hardier explorer.

The Hariyama nods, and it assumes an offensive stance...

We Gotta Have a Montage (Montaaage)


After a hard day of training, the Hariyama and a crowd of Makuhita all bow simultaneously to the worn Jason. The horde has escorted him to the chamber's entrance, and now proceed back to their makeshift dojo.

Once Jones reaches the entrance to the Ruins, he'll consult the map he's been making, and head to that strange park and the hotsprings near its center.

The distance is a bit of a walk. Hopefully nothing bad happens on the way... (Survival)

The path back is easy to traverse, but something seems a little different, as if Jones was being watched...

Merchant enters into the slag ruin, Meowth beside him.

Taking the bait he got from the Chef, he looks around to find a good spot to set up the bait, away from the pokemon he's already seen.

Jones will stop and take a look around, to see if he can spot anything odd.

Merchant finds a deep indentation in the ground, away from the buildings, and tosses the bait in. Hopefully something will turn up soon...

Jones looks up, at the top of some close-by spires... and notices some rocky suns, four of them, floating up top, staring him down.

Jones will give the spires a wide berth as he continues on his way. Better to not tempt fate, and two-on-one odds aren't appealing at all at the moment.

Jones heads onward... and the four suns float after him slowly. They are a pretty large distance away, but still... they're there.

After a fair bit more walking, Jones comes upon the heated pool. It's still quite steamy.
