Intro Log.

[awashmods]

It's raining, it's pouring. The old man is snoring. He bumped his head and went to bed And he couldn't get up in the morning.

ou wake in knee-deep water, cold as ice and stagnant, in a space that is far too echoey and spacious. It feels like a massive cave, but looking up... there's only one small, circular opening that shows grey sky and shines any sort of light. It looks like a long trip upwards, a small cylinder with walls of brick that's just a little too high to reach, even when jumping. Getting out is probably going to be a bit of a task, especially considering the water is more than cold enough to make limbs go numb. The dark makes it impossible to see much further, but the space seems large, all filled with water, but with no other way out, stone walls the only thing for an intrepid explorer to find. Oh, and to make things even better, it's raining today. Water from below (though thankfully only like, knee-deep), and water from above... how fun. But most importantly of all... you're not alone. Welcome to Awash's second intro log, everyone! Please review the FAQ and rules before playing. New characters have all woken at the bottom of the well in the middle of the town (which seems a lot bigger on the inside, somehow), and it looks like they'll have to put in some work to get out. Thankfully, they have some friends on the outside, this time. Once out, they'll be free to explore the various locations the Town has to offer at will. Just try not to die on any of the far-too-rickety walkways. Please feel free to ask any questions here and don't forget to greet your fellow players here!

[Oh, oh, but this is more interesting. They'll return to the question of employment in a moment, but first--]

So who died near you?

[He's grinning, but there's something a little more subdued in his gaze. It's a mean look, but not careless, because he thinks he recognizes this spark.]

[buncho]

No one died, and no one's going to die, got it?

[ She's never had anybody die on her; her canon's too lighthearted SOL for that, but the implications of finality is still such a poignant thing. ]

If you die, that's it. I never get to see you again.

[cupiditates]

That's about how it works, yeah.

[He keeps watching her, his smile refusing to fade.]

Even for me. The difference is, it takes a hell of a lot more than what you could do to kill me off for good.
