Event Nine.

[awashmods]

Thus, on Life’s gloomy sea, Heareth the marinere Voices sweet, from far and near, Ever singing in his ear, “Here is rest and peace for thee!”

t's a dark night, and the sounds of feet in the darkness are further dampened and hidden by even more magic, as they are lured away by the soft sounds of dreams that are too good to be true, leaving the Town much, much emptier than when it began. On one side, an island, and a ticking clock to a gruesome death. On the other, the slow realization that those bonds everyone has been forging might mean much, much more than they first thought. Welcome to Awash's ninth event log, everyone! Further information on this event can be found here at the OOC post. You are welcome to start your own posts or logs for this event as well.

And I don't know about you, but catching a cold right after a kidnapping is just adding insult to injury!

[ So let's definitely not stand here dripping. ]

[bufudyne]

...Certainly, [he says with a scrunch of his nose. Kidnapping. Yeah. That is what this is.]

There's not much to this island, is there?

[He turns toward where they can walk up from the beach, further from the water. Inland means... wood and other things they can use for tinder, right?]

[scooptimistic]

[ Sure. Not a whole lot of wood, sadly, but maybe soggy driftwood!!! ]

Yeah... I guess they probably don't need much, and they don't want to give us much to work with either.

[bufudyne]

It would be unwise to provide your victims with the means to escape or fight you.

[Which makes their circumstances... quite grim. Yusuke looks serious.]

[scooptimistic]

Well!

[ with a huff. ]

That's fine, I'm sure if we band together, we can at least fend them off!

[bufudyne]

I hope the others will notice our absence sooner rather than later, as well...

[because he's sure as heck noticed the whole town ain't over here]

[scooptimistic]

You'd think they would. But I'm not sure if they'll know where to find us.

[ where even are they? ]
