Who: Everyone, involved in the labyrinth or not!
When: Day 12, in the afternoon—specifically, immediately after the labyrinth
Where: THE BEACH of Port Perplex, but anywhere really
What:

[FOR POST-LABYRINTH EXPLORERS: you wake up somewhere along the beach, as though you just washed up on shore. it's especially hot today, and yet, the sun bearing down on you doesn't seem to be causing your injuries any additional discomfort. in fact, the heat seems to be relieving some of your pain—you might be lucky enough to feel no pain at all. still, you should probably get some help.]

~*~*~*~*~

[there's some immediately observable changes in Port Perplex. you see, the ocean is a vivid aqua color now, no longer trapped beneath a thick fog that once stuck to its surface. if you look out in the distance over the ocean, you'll see a beautiful sky. the sand along the shore is now soft and warm. furthermore, there's some coconut-bearing palm trees dotting the shore. in summary, this looks like a tropical beach now!

for the next however many days, you'll be able to discover some other things, as well as participate in the festivities taking place all along the beach. it helps that your employer MIGHT have just given everyone a vacation! you see, every single one of the townsfolk are thrilled for this new development, and they're more than eager to celebrate its arrival!]

[frowns slightly]

Is it some residue of the power of the labyrinth, or the power of the queen here...?

...Either way. We should head towards the clinic before that power fades.

Let's go, then.

Need a hand?

An ear would be preferable, but I'll take what I can get.

I only have the two.

Of course. I wouldn't want to take either of yours. Especially not after your own...difficulties today.

I'm still in one piece, ignoring the blood loss. That's not an offer, but don't worry about me.

Very well...We should go to the clinic either way.

Right. IT's this way.

[motions]

[keeps one hand over his ear as he follows close behind]

[watching him as they walk]

Do you need a bandage before we get to the clinic.

The bandages at the clinic are less likely to have been soaked in salt water. It'll be better to wait until we're there.

Fair. But if you were going to bleed out before we got there, salt-water-soaked bandages are better than none

-- That likely would be the wiser course of action.

Glad to know you don't have a phobia of dirt or germs, just a rational caution.

My concern was mostly that the salt would be an...unpleasant irritant against the wound.

[winces] Oh, right.

I think I can stand without it for now, but we'd need to hurry to the clinic either way.

Let's go, then.

[nearly nods in response, before realizing that may be unwise] ...Let's go.

[hurrying off to the clinic!]

[keeping pace to make sure he doesn't keel over or something]

[successfully makes it to the clinic with minimal keeling!]

I should be able to get assistance from here. Thank you.

You're welcome.
