Event Ten.

[awashmods]

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!

There must be a reason, but it's hard to say what. When the first group arrived, nothing had color at all. Our actions are restoring it, by doing quests and making bonds, but...

I still don't know what it's actually doing, or if it'll help take us home. It's all we've got, right now.

[ doing quests and making bonds. his lips twist at that, clearly displeased by what he's heard. ]

Then they should've brought the Singularity rather than me. [ the person has their way of charming everyone and practically making bonds, even with a rock. sandalphon's just not the best candidate for that sort of stuff. ]

So we're being asked to do tasks without the guarantee that these tasks will return us to our realms? Optimistic isn't the word I would describe our situation, but ...

[ is it futile? passive acceptance? he doesn't know. ]

[swordfucker]

They do directly help us. Color was restored to food, making it so it's not tasteless. We still have a long way to go, but it would be horrible to live here without the rewards we've gotten from those quests.

[Now it's only semi-horrible.]

There's no rhyme or reason to who they take, from what I can tell.

[heirworthy]

[ well, he doesn't really eat. or rather, he doesn't need to.

plus it's kind of sad to accept semi-horrible conditions simply because it's a bit better than horrible conditions. then again, as someone who just arrived, he can't really voice any kind of opinion about it. ]

Has the color of coffee been restored already?

[ most impt question of the day. ]

[swordfucker]

Yeah, actually.

[Having roommates who are coffee-obsessed as well has him well aware of this fact. They waited for that day.]

Pretty recently in the scheme of things, too. It's your lucky day.
