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.

[You know, he can't even question the storyteller thing when it just sounds like a Dave thing, somehow? Were they talking to keep their minds off of things? He has no idea, but he's so hyper focused on healing...]

I hope so, too. [He pinches at the bridge of his nose.]

I'll be here too, just to make sure everyone's out and safe.

... You care a lot for the people under you, don't you?

...

[He doesn't like answering that question normally. In a better situation, he'd outright deny it, call them all brats and annoyances. But as it is now, he's too worried.]

I'm just doing what anyone in charge should do. [He still tries to take the personal touch away from it, though. But he's obvious.]

[well, it's hard to miss. still, gandharva won't press too much.

that said, he can't resist adding—]

Spoken like a true leader.

[... honestly, it makes him feel a little guilty. maruna wasn't wrong when he said gandharva was a terrible king.]

[It's TRUE... but Guren is trying to be tsun about it. So, he scowls a little, lifting his hand to wave it off as he turns to walk somewhere else and wait for the others.]

Whatever.
