Well, this sounds like a fun place to be.

When: Day 200, eveningish?
What:

"Soooo~ who else woke up from a weird trip and remembered bein' from this planet and watchin' it go ta hell? I mean, are we livin' in a zombie? Is that what just happened? Cuz if it was just me I'll stop right there..."

Who: Marisa, anyone
Where: Arena
When: Day 200, afternoon
What: A sharp whistle may draw you to the Arena today, where a purple-haired midboss is sitting over several boxes of supplies, sharpening a sword. She looks up to greet you with a terse nod.

"I want you to see what you can create a weapon out of. Best ones get rewarded."

((Activity: MAKE THE PRETTIEST SHANK OF ALL. Carve a pink shank with sparkles out of a toothbrush? Okay. Classic sharpened piece of wood? Sure. Be creative!))

Who: Current workers and refugees, and late stragglers
Where: The base of the great mountain
When: King's Year 199, late fall
What:

[By this point, the walls have begun to curve up and over, and most areas require scaffolding . The supports are massive and each area has been flagged before they were very precisely set.

More great ants from the Pavo lands have begun making their way in, apparently of their own intelligence, and have taken to moving the blocks to the higher areas on their own.

The heat has become intolerable during the day. Even a few minutes outside burns, and more and more caught unaware are requiring treatment. The nights are bright. Torches are no longer needed; even in what used to be deep dark the horizons flood with the Old Woman's light.

Stragglers who survive the journey are quickly taken in, and often times treated. Some residents have raised concerns about food and water, but the Oracle remains quiet and calm, saying that such will be provided if necessary. The real question remains of whether the great shelter, now called 'The Sacred City' by the priests, will be done in time.]

[Once again, that strange patchwork of light and reality bathes the arena. Deep, impenetrable darkness wars with scattered rays of light, illuminating tiny slices of some seemingly unconnected scenery. Here a patch of lush, bluish tinged grass is warmed by the sun and blown by the breeze. There half of a delicate stone fountain is bathed in the first morning light... And over there you see a strange, fuzzy creature skittering and scrambling up a sheer rock face, ducking nervously in and out of shadows.

Scenes like this are scattered throughout the entire Arena without any sense of rhyme or reason... But as you walk further, you find yourself having to step on or around more and more thread. Fourteen shades of fine thread loop, scatter and tangle, condensing and congregating below the throne... leading to fourteen looms, each with a primitive, fuzzy picture coming into view, line by line- starting with the sky at the top.

When you look directly at the throne, it seems empty. It is only out of the corners of your eyes do you catch fleeting glimpses... sometimes fingers twined with thread... sometimes a face: matured with age, but warm and kindly.]

W... d...seek.... ?

Who: Ophiuchus
Where: In the snake's chamber
When: Day 197, evening
What: It IS kind of unusual that the Guardian calls in the evening...

[It is just as the torch's magical lights begin to dim for the evening that every Ophiuchus hears a summons, floating across the surface of their thoughts, seeking their return.]

Gather and heed well: there sssssshall be new ordersssss.

Who: Marisa, Canis, Lacerta
Where: Lacanis dorm area
When: Day 195, afternoon
What: An Ophiuchus is lurking around Lacanis territory for a while. Eventually, she carefully places a package in plain sight, and proceeds to move off to watch it in what she thinks is an unobtrusive manner. What blank trusts a mystery package from an Ophi enough to open it?

Who: Caduceus
Where: Heading into The Caves
When: Day 194, bright and early;
What: Finding Guardian a snack that is not tasty, tasty twined-serpent.

[has a spear and a bag of rocks magical items, and is waiting for the second wave]

[First wave folks are welcome to also use this thread -- just put a note about the time in the subject, I guess.]

Who: Ophiuchus
Where: Ophi Dorms
When: Day 193, Late Night
What: New guy!

[SHOOTS CORIANDER]

Who: Ophiuchus
Where: Deep under the Arena
When: Day 193, early morning
What: Reassignments

[Last night, Ophiuchus felt more keenly than any other area the rumblings and ravages of the earthquake. However, before the rumble even became a roar, the stones mended themselves, drawers righted... and the snake hissed its agitation and displeasure.

It would say nothing of the events... Only that he would speak to the King in the morning. As the torches start gathering light, the Guardian begins the evening with a fainter rumble than the night previous, and those Ophiuchus waking up, will find those changes again. Uraeus has once again reclaimed the top, while Uroboros is just a little behind. Caduceus...]

... Caduceus... Keepersss of the wessst.

[It is a summons, rather than a statement.]

Who: Weed, Haru, anyone else
Where: On the way to Ophi
When: Day 189, Afternoon
What: Needs his fix :(

*Weed is on his way to the Ophi dorms, to make a deal for his cigs*

Who: Amanita, you
Where: laaakkeeesiiidddeee?
When: Day 188, midmorning (after the corpse minigame)
What:

[ Amanita's standing at the lake edge looking down at her reflection. Every now and then she pulls a wide smile, and then frowns. She keeps changing her posture as well. If you have a keen eye, you would be able to tell that she's imitating the posture of everyone she's met so far.

If not, well, she's also holding a pumpkin. ]

Who: Teal
Where: Ophi training room.
When: Day 180
What:

[Teal is in the training room, staring at a training dummy with a frustrated expression.] There has to be a way to do it again...

Who: All blanks
Where: THE ARENA!1
When: Day 174, late afternoon
What: Ash got that bullhorn again

Attention all teams! Report to the Arena! It's super important!

[at said arena, there are a loooot of torches set up. Also a bunch of blacked out standups and carvings of creatures that vaguely look like animals :|d]

Where: Ophi dorms, anywhere bored Ophi might wander

When: Day 171, evening.

[River is doing his patrol rounds, katana on his shoulder. Both hands, hooked in his pockets, are bandaged up - not covered is the red pattern up one side of his neck and cheek. It looks like his skin cracked, fissured, and is now scarring. But hey, he's healing!]
