Quote: The Caves (5) : To any explorers visiting the new Reservoir, they may find that just a bit away from the sandy water are a set of caves. Some of these connect back to the lake, but others rapidly plunge into darkness. It wouldn't be hard to get lost in here, but thankfully there are some very odd lights to help guide you out. If you turn off your light down some of these dark paths, you may find yourself surrounded by glowing pastel lights. A closer inspection reveals that you seem to be looking at some sort of glowing caterpillars. An internet search will reveal that Destiny City scientists have been researching the strange, unnamed creatures, but the articles are very limited. If you take them out of the cave they seem to shrivel up almost immediately. They're neat, but clearly meant to be stay in their natural habitat. He couldn't quite remember what all happened during this time of year before he had purified but he knew it was magical shenanigans. And some of those bled into his new... well, possibly new civilian job as a Park Ranger. Which meant that tonight he was on cave duty meaning he was the one who had to check if there was anyone in the cave and if they were unable to get themselves out of it. Since he was by himself for the night and had been told about the strange activity at the reservoir, he had decided to power up as Drombeg. His outfit would look strange, but someone would probably just thinking he was dressing up as a Knight for fun. Luckily there hadn't been anyone who had managed to get super lost in the cave, though they did get word about strangely glowing caterpillars. Whether those were helping people get lost or get out he had no idea, but if science couldn't explain them, magic could. He walked over to the edge of one of the caves and shouted "ANYONE IN HERE?"

Tea stretched as she was walking towards the cave, she'd felt an energy signature and seen someone at the edge of the caves which is what she was planning on exploring.
There was some rumors about how pretty it was down in the caves with some pastel glowing caterpillars and she wanted to check it out herself. "Hello~" She called hoping she didn't startle the knight.
"Are you going exploring in the cave?" She asked curiously as she stood with her arms behind her back.

He heard nothing in return to his question, except for footsteps behind him. He turned to look around at the Senshi that had decided to make her way towards him. He shook his head to her question. "No, not if I don't have to. I work in this area so I wanted to make sure that no one, even powered, had decided to go exploring in the cave." He definitely was not a fan. He wasn't clausterphobic, but being stuck inside with no way out and in complete darkness except whatever light may have been brought? No. No thank you. "If you're going in I suggest being prepared for it. I know there are reports on those glowing caterpillars, but it's still dangerous." At least, that's what he assumed she was here for. Or else it would have been a very strange place to go looking for any Chaos.

Tea looked curiously as Drombeg said he wasn't interested in going into the cave. She tilted her head as he mentioned he worked in the area, "Oh that's cool that you work in this area!"
She seemed to think for a moment before pulling out of her subspace a flashlight and an led lantern with a grin, "Well which do you think is better?? I was totally planning on exploring and was kind of hoping to run into someone who'd want to join me."
There was a pause as the senshi grinned, "But it does sound like I maybe going on my own."
There was a moment before she chuckled, "OH~! Also silly me, I suppose I should introduce myself. I'm Tea, Senshi of Mice." She shifted the flashlight and led lantern together into one hand and offered her other hand out for a handshake.

Drombeg grunted. A Senshi would be more equipped to go into the cave, but another issue arose in that she may not be the only powered person to go into the cave, and one could possibly be ambushed at some point in there if an Agent were able to teleport... "You sure you want to do that powered up? I haven't sense any chaos auras in the area, but they could come later." Hopefully not though. "Drombeg, Knight of Earth." He said, taking a moment to shake the offered hand. "I'm willing to go with you, but the cave isn't the easiest thing to navigate. You really want to see those bugs?" He didn't really get the interest in them.

Tea paused looking at Drombeg sideways, "Well the way I figure it, exploring powered up might be better, because we can move faster, and more nimble. So if something happens we can react better, not to mention what if there's a youma or something in there?"
She grinned, "Nice to meet you Drombeg!"
There was a nod, "I hear they're pretty so I would like to go see them. Plus how often do you find some mysterious bug that glows and can't be taken out of a cave?" She bounced on her heels a bit. "I mean you don't have to come with me, I just figured it'd be more fun with someone else."
With that she hummed and headed in, "But you can follow me if you decide you want to come."
