Characters: Steve Rogers and Hades
Location: Scandinavia
Rating: PG-13
Time: May 24th
Description: A forgotten God and a living Legend go troll-hunting.

After maybe an hour of speaking with the locals, following hints and getting a vehicle Steve and Hades finally arrived in the outskirts of a forest that was supposedly part of a famous park. Hades had left most of the speaking to the human Meister, assuming correctly that doing so would inspire more faith and cooperating from those they met.

The place their tracking had led them to was the shore of a big river that was filled with water that was of a muddy blue-green color and kept making small noises as the floods rushed by. A light rain was falling and the barest hint of faint mist had build up along the surface of the water.

Hades walked up to it until sand mixed with the earth beneath his feet and only a few steps divided him from taking another unwanted swimming lesson. “According to what that one said the last victim was snatched from about here.” He took a deep breath and closed his eyes for a moment. It wasn’t the ocean, but all that water still reminded him of his late brother. Silly stupid brother who had went down while trying to punch giant scorpions in the face. “…I don’t think that dying in the water is really preferable to dying on the land.”

Gathering information and speaking with the locals is the easy part. Steve didn't mind talking with the people and really, he hasn't been in Scandinavia in a long time. But now isn't the time for sight-seeing, not that his last visit was much for sight-seeing either. Maybe he'll be in this place that's not mission related one day.

Steve walks up to the river, ignoring the small light rain that's pattering on him. "A good place to start then. Although, think we'd notice if a large troll started running towards us." He says that last bit a little wryly. Despite having a weapon partner with him, he still brought the shield that he received from the Watch, although it's nowhere as strong as his vibranium one. It's currently strapped to his back, as he looks at his surroundings.

"No, it really isn't." Drowning sucks, he knows that from personal experience.
