Warnings/Notes: Hot spring antics, hot wing antics, potentially washtubs





Everyone knows the Heroes of Light by now. They took the world by storm over the last few days (over and over and over the last few days) and with the calamity averted and Bahamut fended off? They needed a vacation. One on a brand new day would be great; the past few became a little too predictable for anyone's taste. The solution? Celebrate a brand new day at a place they're sure to be welcomed and are least likely to be thrown out. A job well done is well and good as a hero's reward, but a person's got bills to pay and feet to get off of now and then, so the ultimate destination place was an obvious one: the Myste Aura hot springs.

The invitation's an open one and Dante's one of the first to arrive, primarily to get the cooking all set up. There's a lot of it to be done, but given the zora's amused smirk through it all, he's having a good time. It's as much for him as it is everyone else. He could only bring enough for cooking and serving, so no vacation gear here! Gotta bring your own or pick some up on the way over. Either way, it's a stress free time that everyone really needed. Oh...and the invitation insists that the heroes bring along their Calm Deity Masks for an unmentioned reason...


THE HOT SPRINGS

Without a doubt, the main attraction of this trip. The hot springs are world renowned for a reason! Take a dip into the waters and see for yourself. The bubbling warmth of the natural waters are more than enough to let weary heroes and travelers alike unwind and let their troubles melt away for a little while. Some people have actually fallen asleep while settled in these, so be careful to keep your head above water!

Waterside refreshments are also available, particularly beverages. Remember: no underage drinking!


FOOD STANDS

There is. A lot of food. Including the shawarma Dante promised! He's got a few volunteers willing to help keep things clean and organized, but a majority of it is self serve with various kinds of cuisine for all kinds of tastes! As thanks for all the shenanigans Bass puts up with, there's a separate food table for moogles and dishes incorporating kupo nuts. Appetizers, entrees, desserts, it's all here. Dante himself is manning the shawarma station and offering anyone who asks a good, hearty slice of cooked Ochu meat. Trust him, guys; it's so good, it doesn't even need a sauce.


LIVE ENTERTAINMENT

The nice thing about being this close to Myste Aura is that the Bard's Guild is nearby. Once word got around that the Heroes of Light were gonna take a vacation in their neck of the woods, a few enthusiastic volunteers were more than ready to perform as a show of thanks for all they've done. Enjoy the concert of songs, some classics, some composed in honor of the heroes themselves. Naturally, there's little to stop anyone who wants to hop on stage and perform themselves. Hell, the bards would be proud to perform alongside a hero of light! Just don't mind the spotlight you'd be under.


COLLECTIBLES

So remember the whole thing about bringing your Calm Deity Masks? Surprise! Everyone who approaches the table of bagged goodies wearing their masks receives one! Each bag has a collection of goodies inside, from toy crystals to even figurines of the heroes themselves! Were you lucky enough to get yourself or your friends? Nothing's stopping you from trading until you get the one(s) you want!

Along with each bag is a free t-shirt. They have several different sizes just in case and all of them bear a familiar logo as a reminder of the great deed the heroes accomplished.


Wildcard

We're all kicking back and relaxing, I'm not gonna tell you what to do. Have fun, go nuts and remember to clean up after yourself.

(Make toplevels! Relax! Have fun~))

"In hindsight, I could've done that." It would've provided some entertainment in the clinic. "However, at some point, I just left detailed notes to the other doctors on what to do in order focus on joining the efforts to stop the loops."

[songbird_slayer]

"Smarter, definitely. Leaves you time for loop matters." She went to top off Naomi's cup, if needed.

"I had to board up the Lady's windows in case of rioters! Every single time! I swear I could build a house at this point!"

[chatwithdeath]

"Smarter, perhaps, but it still takes some time to keep writing the directions out." She would take that top-off, thank you. Down it goes after its poured really.

"Undoubtedly. What's the official loop count?"

[songbird_slayer]

Madhuri was about to answer, but instead paused and blew a raspberry. Without a word, and with the ticking of her fingers, some silent math in her head...

"Fifty. We succeeded on fifty-one. I had to count, or I think I'd have gone mad."

[chatwithdeath]

She nodded. Naomi understood the need for some controlled action even if it was just counting. Trying to keep track of every event that had occurred or would eventually had the risk of driving anyone insane.

"Well, it's over for now. We have time to prepare ourselves for a new day."

[songbird_slayer]

"I'll drink to that."

She poured herself one last cup and passed the tray along to the spider lady.

"But just a little more. If I keep it up I might start falling asleep in the water. Imagine that- a casualty on account of alcohol!"

[chatwithdeath]

Accepting the tray, Naomi poured herself another cup. They would need another bottle.

"Not far-fetched. I had cases like that during medical school."

[songbird_slayer]

"Really? Do tell. I understand training was stressful, but by the gods...!"

In the meantime she pulled herself out of the water, and went to gather up her iMog slate. The Mognet was everywhere, and it was handy of this particular establishment to have connections to the front desk. Two more bottles! If they don't destroy these, they could always take some home.

But rather than get back into the water, she had a seat next to Naomi. And sure, she'll take a towel and drape it over her shoulders so she doesn't give a heart attack to an attendant.

[chatwithdeath]

"Unfortunately, it's nothing abnormal."

Naomi waited for Madhuri to come back before continuing with her story. She didn't get a lot of time to talk about her years in medical school and the alcohol was helping her relax a little. With Madhuri at her side, she'll speak on.

"When young adults finally reach their legal drinking age, they typically overdo it. They also forget the combined affect of heat and alcohol which resulted in a number passing out, a few nearly drowning, and one or two unfortunate ones that give themselves a fracture from falling. It's pleasant to be able to drink while in the hot spring, but we recommend people never do so alone."

[songbird_slayer]

She nodded emphatically. "Ah, yes... I've found that many worlds choose a time upon two decades before they consider us safe to presume 'adulthood'. The powers that be don't seem to understand that twenty some-odd years isn't much when it comes to one's experiences. Though, I suppose when a world is torn by war, reaching year twenty is something of a jaw-dropping achievement."

Madhuri emptied her last cup and set it down.

"I've seen soldiers of tender ages, others that become mothers, fathers, wives, husbands out of desperation. In that case, I suppose I can see where this beheld 20 year mark makes sense."

[chatwithdeath]

"Even then, you'll still get some patients drinking underage. And since we have to inform a legal guardian of their activity, you can imagine how lively the room can become."

Patients could be terrible, but dealing with the family could be the worst. Naomi might like helping people, but she had little patience with loud idiots and angry fools.
