Cade put his cup of coffee back on Rosey's counter and looked again at the new fangled phone's screen. This had quickly become one of his favorite spots to eat in the islands, with good down home cookin' and friendly service... not to mention the reasonable prices. On it there was the video that had popped up online of something people were calling the "Shadow Temple". There was a bunch of folks talking about how some people had went in and just... disappeared. Like a rock cast into a pond, gone from sight and never seen again. The view zoomed in closer to the temple, revealing it's stones and showing the entrance that looked dark as a moonless night out on the open desert. There was a group of folks outside of it, most had the look of fighters of one type or the other, though it didn't look like any folks he really recognized... at first. Then he saw Kiryu walking in... he didn't even know he'd been heading up there to check it out... but it wasn't really a surprise. Stuff like this was Kiryu's bread and butter after all, magic was woven into that man's soul someway or another. He didn't really understand it, but he knew it to be so.
Cade felt like he should be one of the ones there investigating this place. If he was going to join the ranks of people protecting this world, he needed to get out there and actually start doing it. He closed the video and pulled up his Capsule Corp GPS app on his phone, pinpointing the coordinates of the temple from the video, he marked it on his map. Pilaf land was actually on the southern tip of the Southern Lands, though he'd never really traveled there. His family had never really had the spare cash to do things like go to Pilaf Land, though he had heard that the rides there were really fun... maybe he could try to swing by there. If he had time.
He downed the rest of the coffee in his cup and left Rosey a nice tip before saying his farewells and heading out into the afternoon. He ran over to a clear area and launched himself into the sky, using his phone as a reference to get his bearings and then put it away and started flying towards Pilaf Land. A blue aura formed around him, leaving a trail of blue light behind him as he made his way to the shore of the island and beyond. The wind whipped at his hair and face, a welcome and freeing sensation that Cade enjoyed about flying. There was a certain joy that came with soaring above the earth, that was accompanied by a freedom of thought and a lifting of the spirit; he gave in to the feeling and flew in a large looping corkscrew, laughing at the exhilaration until he trued himself and started flying straight towards his destination again.
His mind began to wander as he sped along, above the waves but under the clouds. He wondered what kind of place this was that could be drawing so many people... and why would they go in? He shook his head, that was dumb even for him. there seemed to be people lost in there and they needed help. Now the first people who had went in there might need a head check iff they was just wondering into that place all willy nilly. Even through a video feed, the place had given him the creeps; he wasn't sure if he would have just went wondering in without preparing himself first. OF course that was easy to say when you weren't there, he supposed. Which he should be soon enough, he saw the coastline resolving itself into view in the distance. He slowed down and hovered above the beach as he pulled his phone out and checked to see where he was exactly so he could figure out which way he needed to move to get to the temple. Looks like I need to head east down the shoreline from here...
He zipped down the shore line, eyes peeled for a giant temple coming out of the water. Finally, it came into view, a large black blot in the blue green sea. He circled around the temple once before coming down for a landing at the edge of the crowd nearby, letting his blue aura dissipate. It was time to enter the shadows and see where his friend had disappeared to...
