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!

You could say that, I guess.

[Guren certainly hasn't run out of any things to do. He's running on almost no sleep, it's great.]

It's looking better than it did six months ago, if that helps any. Those quests actually do seem to be helping, one way or another. At the very least, it's some kind of progress that you can track.

[ It does seem to be a little comfort, based on how Sebastian's posture and expression relaxes, but he still sighs. The weight of it makes something about Sebastian's personality quite clear, assuming it wasn't already: he's a terribly responsible sort and is already considering how best to tackle the various problems he's witnessed. ]

A small comfort, yet it is a comfort still. It would be all the worse to slave away with nothing to show for it, I suppose.

[ He looks to Guren again, this time a bit more quizzically ]

Though these quests— I've seen mention of them, and this month's in particular, but I do have a question about those. Just who is giving them?

Their identity isn't something we really know, but I'll explain it a little. You must not have found the laptops yet.

[And god, he has no idea if he'll have to explain what a laptop is again, so he'll leave context clues just in case.]

Everyone has one in their assigned house so that we can talk to each other, and see those quests. We're each assigned hexadecimal codes— colors— and the one giving out the quests is #FFFFFF, or white.

They put up quests but reply to nothing else. It's weird, and there's no trusting it, but it's the only lead we have.
