[ Heights never bothered Riku before, but waking to lying face down on a crosstree of a large ship is not what he expected upon trying to travel to the other side. The deck is far below him and thankfully, Riku is quick to keep his balance before he rolls off. Getting to his feet, he takes advantage of being near the tallest point of the ship to look around. ]
Not Quadratum, then.
[ It looks nothing like his dreams of the large city on the other side. Was is somehow an adjacent world? So much was unknown about what he was walking into, but any step that lead him closer to Sora was one he'd take. There might be a reason he ended up here instead, so he'll stick around long enough to find out.
He jumps down to land on the deck with ease, time to find out more about this place. ]
Could you tell me more about this place?
[ The crew doesn't seem too surprised by a random person showing up, so Riku will tread the line of World Order to ask a rather vague question. ]
Eltrut
[ Or on Eltrut he can be found following the map to collect his belongings, getting a tattoo, picking up his shellphone (and scrolling the posts for information), or just wandering the streets to explore the new world. He is, of course, looking for familiar faces and yet doesn't expect to see them at the same time. ]
You almost wouldn't believe you were riding on the back of a turtle if the big guy wasn't visible. The ride is pretty smooth.
[ He's just stopped to look over at the scene of the turtle's head over the horizon of the shell. ]
☄️ Outside the Turtle
Healing
[ Riku is up on the shell with his healing spell at the ready to use on the turtle. There are large gaping holes from where the spines were and while the protrusion is gone, there's still work to be done. ]
Do you have anything to help with the poison? My healing spell only helps with physical injuries.
[ He has a couple of items that he picked up from a local vendor, but Riku knows that there are magics that can heal poisons and other ailments. Sora is more the jack-of-all-magic. ]
Scavengers
[ Or he's fighting scavengers down in the barren lands, Keyblade flashing as he slashes at their weapons and arms to disarm them. Riku isn't above shooting off some Dark Firaga to attack the more violent ones who reek of darkness. It helps him figure out when to not hold back. ]
These guys aren't messing around, don't pull any punches with them.
[ He will play rescuer if needed. ]
☄️ Inside the Turtle
Growths and fumes
[ Reppansagen is certainly no Monstro - being on the inside. The mouth felt about the same, with all the shipwrecks inside but going deeper proves to be more like the bowls of the giant whale than the rest of that crazy place. He's looking up at one of the growths that's making the giant turtle feel unwell. ]
It's going to be better to attack it from afar. Unless you want to smell whatever has been trapped in there.
[ There's a teasing tone to his words, but they're also truthful ones. ]
The Blood Onyx
[ Crossing worlds isn't a new concept to Riku or traveling long distances, but he can't help wanting to explore an old pirate ship. Any treasures found can go to someone else, he's more interested in just looking at them. ]
Aren't you worried that some of this stuff might be cursed? Some of those curses are pretty powerful.
[ He knows about Sora's time in the Caribbean, after all. ]
