Event Thirteen.





To love a human face was to discover
The cracks of paint and varnish on the brow;
Soon to distrust all impulses of flesh
That strews its sawdust on the chamber floor,
While at the window peer two crones
Who once were Juliet and Jessica.





t's a regular morning here in the Town. The sun isn't shining at all, snow is falling like crazy, and...there may be the sounds of shouts coming from the well, thoroughly muffled.

Okay, so it's not a regular morning at all, but you'd better go help those people! The newcomers are here again. Of course, once you get to the well, you'll notice that there's actually no real help you can offer -- it's totally frozen over.

As for the newcomers, well... hopefully being suddenly dumped into freezing cold water in the middle of November in a dark, damp well is your idea of a good time, because that's your life now!

And that's not even taking into account the mirrors in everyone's homes that are about to wake up and start chattering...




Welcome to Awash's thirteenth event log, everyone! Further information on this event can be found here at the OOC post. Please keep in mind that while this is a general event log, it is also an intro log; be sure to pay plenty of attention to our newcomers!

If there are any questions, please ask them here. Thank you!

...I mean. When you put it like that.

[You know what, if Lewis Carroll can come up with one of the world's most enduring riddles and never actually give it a solution, then why can't one of the world's oldest riddles be solved with an anachronism.

The crazy part is, the more that you think about it, the more actually legit it really sounds.]


It fits all of the requisite criteria, so...

Right?? Ain't any rules about when all our answer became an answer.

...Okay, then. Yeah. Our answer — a valid answer — is Sunglasses Hut.

[That moment when the Sphinx be like.

And yet, after an excruciatingly long pause, it eventually seems to settle around the Sphinx that there isn't really a valid way of challenging that answer outside of "I wanted a different one", which admittedly is kind of a weak argument. Besides, quasi-tricking a situation like this via clever gaming of the rules is frankly what tests like these are all about.]


...Very well, then. A hut of sunglasses does well in assisting the blind to see.

[That's...probably a confirmation of success.]
