Into the [Macalania] Woods [Active/Closed]
Character(s): Riku, Link, Mao and Yorda
Content: SPIRA EXPEDITION later to be joined by Kairi, possibly.
Setting: Spira floor, Macalania Woods
Time: Morning. Ish. (How early do you expect Riku to get up?)
Warnings: MONSTERS, EXPLORATION, ADVEEEEENTUUUURE
"Just inside the door to Spira." That was what the note Riku'd sent everyone said. Close enough to the safety of the door anyone waiting could escape and just barely far enough in to satiate curiosity until the others arrived. Or at least his own curiosity.
So he'd thought.
He stood there, looking around in awe. At first glance he thought it had been night in this world, but as he examined his mysterious surroundings, he found no true stars amongst the shimmering lights. The forest itself was thick enough to blot out any sunlight, leaving the natural phosphorescence of the place to let newer growth emerge. Crystals and trees alike sprang from the earth to the point it became clear the growth was one and the same. The trees themselves seemed frosted in their own crystal. The trees twisted and intertwined amongst themselves to create eerie walkways through this serene place. Stranger still were the light trails that rose gently through the forest. It was as if the light from the crystals themselves simply rose away from their homes to create glittering ribbons stretched across the bows of the trees.
Riku leaned against the doorframe to wait, absentmindedly toying with his new keychain as he gazed at his surroundings.
[Yes, he's playing with a thick chain with an angry button attached to the end.]

Again, Riku has Link wrong...
It was only a moment later when his awe was echoed behind him. Riku didn't turn around at first, but simply replied. "I know. Nothing like back home." The chain still jingled in his hand. After a pause, he finally turned back to Mao and...
A glowing girl. That's new. Definitely not human. She seemed speechless with the surroundings. Too bad he'd have to break the silence. Riku gave her a quizzical look, brows raised, before asking, "...Yorda, right?"
