((Eta XII entering the Cornfields))
XII fought her way through the stalks of corn, pushing the offending vegetation this way and that as she searched for the people she knew were here before.
"Is anyone here?" she called, voice strained. No one answered except for a lonely breeze which clung to her for company. One particular stalk seemed to insist that she was not welcome here and swatted her in the face just as she plowed by it. She gave it a snort and moved on.
After another few fruitless moments of searching, XII finally stopped and began to wonder if maybe she'd just imagined hearing voices before. Maybe she was schizophrenic. That might explain this entire fantasy up until now. Sure, she was probably wreaking havoc at some local grocery store or something. And all the stalks of corn? Were probably people who were unfortunate enough to get in her way.
Or maybe she was Alice in some plainer version of Wonderland. So where the fawk was that rabbit? She was supposed to have something to chase. And was her name Alice? She preferred XII, so she decided to stick with that.
Whatever the case may be, she was most definitely too late for any possible fun to be had. XII plopped her butt down on the ground and sulked, contemplating her next move. And who knows? Maybe a rabbit would show up after a while. She hoped it was a jackalope.

((Eta V is entering the Cornfields! HP: 18 ))
Eta V was finding it extremely hard to stay motivated about...anything, really.
He had decided to move away from his home base on a hunch, hoping that traveling to one of these other places on the map would prove to be more fruitful or contain more information about this hole thing. Instead, all he found was...corn. Lots of corn. As far as the eye could see. The corn was completely useless to him, apart from being a edible food source but then it was a moot point; for whatever reason he did not seem to get hungry in this place, and he didn't want to eat any food from such a strange area anyway.
But what annoyed him more was it appeared people had been here. There were footprints everywhere, as well as already trampled stalks of corn. Had he missed out on something? And were was everyone else?
And then, it hit him. It hit him so hard that he almost fell over with the sheer truth of it. "god....I can't believe it..." He mumbled to himself. No wonder he was by himself. Everyone else had gone to the beach, but he had went to the cornfields instead! "dammit!" He cursed out loud. Now he was alone, in a forein area, with no backup to speak off....and he was surrounded by corn.
He was beginning to think corn was a vegetable he had never liked previously.
Sighing, he moved forwards through the vegetation, hoping he would somehow find a familiar face here. Which happened to be alot easier then he thought, as he practicably stumbled over XII as she sat on the ground. "Omph!"

With a sigh, Eta decided that there was nothing here that would be of any use, so he would just have to move back towards home base, and then think about what he could do from there

XII yawned and sat back up. She'd fallen asleep at some point. No telling how long she'd been out.
Clumps of dirt shifted and fell from her body as she stood and stretched. She took a deep breath and looked around, seeing only the movement of corn stalks around her.
XII shrugged. It was time to move on.
