Event Ten.





Little Willie, mean as hell,
Pushed his sister in a well.
Mother said, while drawing water,
"My, it's hard to raise a daughter."





t's pretty dark and miserable down in the well. The cavernous area feels much larger than a well should be, bodies milling about in the darkness and knee deep, frigid water. So you're here -- and you're not alone, and the only way out appears to be the thin circle of sunlight from above, the opening of the well.

(And elsewhere, in the Town, everyone's waking up to gifts of various usefulness, but hopefully they remember to check the well today even so!)

What now?




Welcome to Awash's tenth event log, and the intro log for this month, everyone! All new characters have found themselves waking in the well in the middle of the Town. Hopefully they can get a hand out! For more information, please go here!

Meanwhile, the current characters have some new gifts.

If there are any questions, please ask them here, and have fun! Thank you!

[ maribelle’s casual, quiet approach means that sierra wakes with much less of a start than she did before. she opens her mouth in a silent yawn, and peeks one curious eye open at the nearby human.

a danger? no? then there’s no worry.

though she does resent, somewhat, being called an oddity. is it so strange that she’s got such lovely white fur, the same color as her hair? it took a long time to perfect this form. ]

[She continues muse out loud, as she does love the sound of her voice.]

I don't think I've seen any bats in this place yet... could it be one of our rewards? Hardly seems useful... unless we were also "rewarded" with insects, and we would need bats to keep those in check. Gods, what a strange system.

[ hm. sierra would never eat an insect, even if bats in the wild are quite well known for it. she yawns again, and wiggles around until she’s upright and she can transform—dropping gently to her feet. ]

You have me mistaken for a common rodent, I’m afraid.

[AHHHH MOTHERFUCK-she lets out a shriek, stumbling backwards, almost falling over.]

... Can none of you ever WARN person when you're about to transform?!

[And she hates that this is actually an ongoing issue now.]

I don’t need to warn you now that you know, do I? Consider it a lesson in action.

[ still, she’s got no reason to be rude to someone who hasn’t actually done anything to her, so her smile takes on a somewhat less dangerous edge. ]

Forgive me.

... I'll think about it.

[fuuuuuudge you.]

... I take it you're a recent arrival.

Hohoho! You’ll think about it. I like a woman with dignity.

[ she’s genuinely amused, at least, which is good for maribelle. ]

I arrived just a few hours ago, yes.

[... all right, she'll take the compliment.]

I thought as much. Have you been informed about the situation we've all found ourselves in?

We’re trapped and this place is garish. Have I missed anything else?

[ the colors that have been restored don’t always seem to be the right ones, from her perspective… and all of the houses are ugly. ]

[personal profile] troubadamsel 2018-09-15 08:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, it's far more complicated than that. For starters... let's see, do you know what a "computer" is?

[personal profile] regrede 2018-09-16 12:40 pm (UTC)(link)
[ no… she doesn’t like admitting that there are things she’s not aware of, but the longer she pauses, the more obvious it would become anyway. ]

I’ll have you explain it to me now.
troubadamsel: (Stay Focused.)

[Oh thank gods, finally, someone else whose world doesn't have them! She's a little pleased.]

They're machines used for long-distance communication. With it, you can be miles away and yet be able to send messages to one another in seconds. And on these machines, an anonymous source gives us quests. Completing the quests restores color to the town, and rewards us with items.

In seconds?

[ finally, she seems intrigued. it’s much faster than a letter or a carrier pigeon could be, and that’s exciting. she doesn’t know who she would talk to here, but having the power is nice. ]

I don’t like being told what to do, but the “computer” sounds like a boon.

Indeed, I believe many worlds would be much better off with such technology. But you won't really believe it until you try it for yourself.
