WEEK TWO: MINGLE
WEEK TWO: MINGLE (37 remain) Rise and shine, gremlins. The sun is shining, the birds are chirping, and it's the start of a new week. To the participants, yesterday's events may seem distant now—albeit not as distant as their life before this. Whether or not they notice, they will have lost a memory upon waking up. The barrier to the north is down, and beyond the bridge lies new areas to explore. Strangely, what was there last week seems to have been replaced overnight. That's not the only thing that's different, either. The participants will find that their lodgings have changed, and new buildings within the town have been unlocked. Finally, should anyone check their PHS, Cater, Sharon, and Kano's profiles have been removed. Three Leaders can be found around the area, open (?) to approach. If participants want to speak to them more privately, or to an absent Leader, it looks like they'll have to go through another channel. Furthermore, it looks as though the rules have updated. If you break the current ninth rule, participants will get shocked. It will be a mild shock at first, but the longer they touch each other, the stronger it will get. On that note, if your character did not share a memory last week, please make sure to check your notifs! Participants may also find that their memories of the past few weeks are getting fuzzier... as though they can't recall some of the details without focusing. Finally, this week, every time a participant gets within one foot of someone, they will experience the emotions the other person is currently feeling and vice-versa. This will last for ten seconds even after they've stepped out of their personal bubble, after which the sharing itself might share, but the knowledge will not. Have fun! |

In my realm, water is synonymous with wealth. Trade moves up and down the rivers of our lands, and so, the Water Master was the master of that, too. It meant that The Water Master was wealthy, but not greedy. Collected and cool, but careful. Protective of the things that were important, as the water I think can always be, and... tempestuous, when those things were threatened.
However... there are not only the elemental gods that control such things, but ghosts who cover the land and the seas, too. It is a difficult balance of power, in many different ways, and one that is as tricky to maintain as anything can be.
I didn't know the Water Master all that well, but ultimately, I was unable to help him when he needed it - in fact, I know, that he didn't want help at all, in the end, and chose to leave this plane very much on his own terms. The water still flows without him; a new water master will rise, eventually. Humans will always come to worship the things that they understand, no matter who embodies them.
[ xie lian finishes quietly, and looks down at the table between them. ] ... I'm sorry. I didn't mean to bring the mood down - it is something that happened not so long ago.
no subject
I'm sorry for your loss. It doesn't matter how it happened—or how much he didn't or did need, or want, your help. It still hurts.
He sounds as though he was a very strong person, though—strong enough to choose his own path onwards.
no subject
I would say so. He stuck to his convictions to the end.
[ his own feelings on the water master are... complicated, but elsa is right; loss hurts, no matter the situation. every part of that situation was immensely, immensely complicated, but it didn't change the feeling of loss.
(it's the windmaster he worries the most for, who did nothing wrong.) ]
Thank you for your kind words, Miss Elsa. That is what matters, isn't it? That no matter what happens, we are able to carve out our own paths in life.
no subject
Carving our own paths forward, and doing the next right thing. No matter how hard it may be.
no subject
Precisely. [ he's got a smile for her that's more genuine, too. ]
I think I said the same thing to you before, but it is quite interesting, the way that our own worlds all seem to overlap, even if the stories are just a little different. Gods, spirits... it's all certainly cut from the same cloth.
no subject
Maybe we should team up? Take on this nova-eating monster together?
no subject
I think that sounds like a fine plan, Miss Elsa! Between us, we'll save this Realm yet!
[ i'm calling dibs on niji for the next mini event ]
no subject
haha]
After all, I think that's what we were all brought here to do. As a defense system for the realm.
no subject
anyway. xie lian thought so before he knew there was a monster TM so there's that. ] ...And in that sense, I am glad, to have a purpose here. To help save this place is to help save every place, after all. My realm, your realm, and that of everyone else here - a dangerous and important mission, indeed.
