You have found yourselves in the middle of a seemingly endless expanse of graveyard. There is a light fog that prevents you from seeing as far as you'd otherwise be able to, but you can still see that the graveyard stretches on for at least a half mile or so in every direction. In the distance, a bell tolls, suggesting that somewhere in hearing distance there might be something besides the features of the headstone city.
It is a cold night, and the wind whisps about in an eary manner. Above all, the most unusual thing is the night sky, which seems to have many more stars than you're used to seeing. Those who have done some stargazing can't recognize any constellations that they're used to seeing, as the crowd of other stars confuses the normal formations you're used to. You feel very alone, apart from each-other.

"Um......this is no good good. Does anyone else feel like we aren't on Earth any more?"
[+3 Search headstones to maybe see a name I would remember.]

Starbright frowns as she looks around, hugging herself to keep out the cold.
After a moment, she shrugs, and takes off towards the sound of the tolling bell (at least, she thinks it's that direction), muttering to herself something about "damned foolish loyalty".

Johan's search comes up empty... the words on the stones do appear to be in English, but none of the names are recognizable. Some of the inscriptions appear to be in Old English.

*Also on that search looking for dates of death trying to figure out how old this new place is.*

"Wait Mercy! Let's not split up!"
*holds out her hand as to try and grab an invisible string to stop her*

(+7 Notice)
*Casts his gaze to a more down-to-earth level as he watches for signs of motion. Secretly hopes he finds some, because he could really use a stress vent at the moment.*

"Well then you'd all best hurry the hell up, wouldn't you say?" She calls back over her shoulder, and continues walking.

*sighs and then runs up to catch up to Mercy*
((As Cheshire nears Mercy...))
"What is with the rush?"

Pulverizer notices no motion. Looking at the years on the tombstones is rather interesting. They mostly appear to be in the tripple digits. However, rather than AD or BC, they are simply labeled "c." "243-286c," for instance.

Mercy gives Cheshire a very serious glare. Whether it was a warning or a threat, who could say.
"I don't like graveyards." Is all she says as she walks.

*taps Matty on the shoulder as I start to walk and try to catch up with Mercy and Chesh.*
"Come on Matty, strength in numbers."

"Yep."
*Calls out.*
"Hey, wait up girls! Not all of us have movement powers."
*hurries after them.*

*looks back at Mercy, and then simply nods*
*turns around to walk backwards and yells*
"What's taking you guys so long?"

"That's why I'm just walking, Pulverizer! So, make with the going fast, the less time we spend here the quicker it'll take us to get back to the city and stop that magic-wielding jackhole!" Mercy growls over her shoulder, apparently her patience was running very thin at the moment. "Otherwise, I'm grabbing the girl here and 'porting us out of this damn cemetary! You boys can catch a taxi!"
