It had been a week since they had been on this excursion boat. It was the only travel method available to Lex at the time when she was looking for some transportation to a mysterious island just off the coast of Australia. She absolutely detested the deep ocean but she held up strong. Mainly by hiding away in the lower decks away from any views of the wide ocean. Every time the boat swayed, so did her insides. Seasickness was no joke! Taking some meds, she ended up wrapping herself inside her blankets and letting the meds take effect. Soon passing out from the drowsy side effect it had.
When she awoke, Lex noticed the boat had stopped swaying. Did they arrive? Uncertain, she exited her room with her pack and walked down the corridor. It was quiet... Still and devoid of any life on board. How strange.. when she stepped up the ladder to the top deck, she was greeted by an outstretched hand. Unsure of who this man was, she climbed the rest of the way up and shook her head. "I'm alright, thank you."
Lex took a look around with uncertain eyes. "What happened?" Her eyes then rested upon a peak in the distance, immediately rummaging through her bag until she snagged a rolled up piece of parchment. Unfurling it to reveal notes of the mysterious island she was looking for. The peaks were exactly the same as the ones in the distance. Her features then turned to astonishment as she connected reality to where they were.
Now turning to face the man that had offered his generous help. "I.. we made it here without a scratch?" She heard that most people that visited this place all met an unfortunate end. Shaking off all of the thoughts running wild in her mind, she was the one to offer her hand this time. "Sorry about that, lets start over. The names Lex. Lex Greywood, and I'm an Archeologist who so happens to also be an Anthropologist. Who do I have the pleasure of meeting? Seeing as we're probably the only survivors currently."
