Week's barely even fucking started and it's just getting better and better.

[ Loch ]

Miles is in custody. Trial starts tomorrow. Fucking careless bastard.


[ Delacreaux ]

Long time no talk. Got a favor to ask.

[Lex, Siri]
Wednesday birthdays are shit. Spoke to Caspar, who had his last week -- and both of yours are next week -- so I was thinking, wanna just roll everything together into a get-together this Friday? I was thinking of inviting just six people or something. Not as big as last y

[Friends -- Drake, Seloria, Raghnall, Darius, Eden]
Looks like the world's somehow miraculously survived another turn around this Faram-damned planet. Anyone free this Friday?

[Aspel]
If you don't
If you're

If you're free this Friday. I'm doing a thing for my birthday. You'd be w  I'd li  And I  And I'd like to see you.


[Zacheus, Cressida]
[...] Fucking miss you.

[backdated: after this]

[Caspar]

Are the trees blue?
you can see them right?
here?

[Theo]

Home is where the heart is
Even if you forget everything else
Letting that go
Poor those that do

Maybe we ought to rename the Festival of Lions to Looks Like We're Still Not Dead Day? Has a certain ring to it.

[Fee]

Speaking of my excellent luck staying alive in this city, I'm fancying a trip to Anjou in Leo suddenly to see if my luck improves there.

I assume you're going? Didn't you last year?

[Ash]

You still pissed, princess? I'm fine, calm down.

[Siri]

You've been quiet, prophetess. Any trouble?

[Aud]

[.....] Got a little assignment for you, tiny.

[Audrey]

Never trust black dragons wearing masks. That is how it all burnt down the first time. I won't warn you twice. Dragons with those masks.

And Ravens eat Doves for breakfast, little heiress.


I don't want to see this, it isn't mine. This isn't mine.

[Silver Blades]
The Hauptmann has contacted me in regards to a mission. Settle your affairs and prepare to move within the next seven days. We are headed to the mountains for an Artifact. Details to follow. Questions are welcome.

[Privated separately to: Almalexia Lliryn, Lionel Baines, and Siri D'Albis]
Hello. I am contacting you on the direction of Hauptmann Athos Hauville of the Order of the Silver Blades. It has come to the Church's attention that there is the possibility of a Holy Artifact being hidden away in a distant mountain range. You are being contacted because your skills may be useful in its retrieval. The mission to find this Artifact is likely to be a dangerous one, and so your joining the Blades on this task is entirely up to you. If you have questions, feel free to ask here.

Thank you for your time. Faram be with you.

The Mages' Guild in Emillion has received word from a secluded monastery in the Outlands. They are offering to donate a caché of White Magic spell scrolls; however, as the monastery is quite out of the way of regular merchant traffic, the Guild is looking to recruit three to six volunteers to make the trek there and retrieve these scrolls, then bring them back to the city, and the Tower.

A map of the area will be provided. Considering the monastery's location, we anticipate the journey there will take more than one day. Our Guild will cover the volunteers' lodging expenses at an inn along the road, and we shall also provide for other traveling expenses.

Ideally, we seek three to four mages as well as two escorts skilled in combat; we do not anticipate this job will pose particular danger, though we must be prepared all the same. At the successful completion of the task, all volunteers will be paid 900g as well as gifted an accessory known as a Leather Gorget, which raises magic attacks when the wearer's health has reached critical levels.

If you would be interested in volunteering your services, please do contact us.


[OOC: Please also respond here for mod tracking purposes; this is MG Quest #2.]

As a reminder, you are encouraged to walk in groups rather than alone, particularly after dark or in the neighborhoods less often patrolled by the Knights of the Peace. If you find yourself in trouble, please defend yourselves - but if possible, in a manner that will cause little harm to any assailants. I have a limited number of Sleep, Bind, and Hold scrolls available for those who wish to peruse them.

As an additional reminder, please continue to show kindness and hospitality to those who have chosen to audit our courses, even if their learning speed is not equal to that of someone trained here from childhood. Your efforts in this regard are greatly appreciated.

[Octavia]

I hope you are feeling better?

[Toku & Merri]

I have been able to sort through some of the papers I found when Perdita assisted me with cleanup on the tenth floor. I have some serious concerns, and still far more questions than answers.

It also seems from my meeting with my contact in the EKP that some individuals are choosing not to report cases of assault or harassment to the guild. I am uncertain what, if anything, should be done.

[Toku]

How is

I found another item of interest when assisting in the library - a black magic scroll that seems quite advanced. It is not a spell I am familiar with, but I though perhaps you might know it, or of it.

[Pyr & Sky]

It may be some time yet before the council floor is livable, and it occurs to me that you may wish not to remain in a barracks indefinitely, Pyr. I am considering renting a house - which I will leave for the two of you to use once I can return to my quarters. What are your thoughts on this? I would prefer not to continue imposing upon the nuns' hospitality.

[Pyr]

[........................................] I have chosen to leave the decision of whether or not to write to Father about your mentor in your hands. Please consider before you decide.

In case you were wondering, comas are fucking terrible. What did I miss?

[Rangers]

What... happened? Someone please just tell me what the fuck happened.

The last of the Red Light casinos is up and operational as of tonight. Plenty of specials going on for new and returning players, so come and try your luck. I think I'll be testing mine, as a matter of fact. The way I figure, we're all about due for some.

[High Stakes Group]

Interest in resuming our games?

[Damia]

You airborne yet, blondie?

[Siri]

Quieter today?

[Aud]

Got some reports for you - short version: I made you some money. And I've got something to talk to you about, so let me know when you can come by. I'd rather not bother the countess.

[Chloë]

In the market for a machinist and your name came up. You do commissions?

[Jareth]

Been awhile, buddy. You weather the last bullshit okay? I still owe you that beer.

[Ash]

So exactly when were you planning to
If I didn't know better, I'd worry you'd died, for fuck's sake
So do we just not see each other to keep from fighting? Is this your genius plan?

[..............................] That new security working out for you and your [.............] housemate?

There is no going back now. You can never go home.

[LEX]
Tell me you're alright.

[CASPAR]
[...] You better be out of the fucking clinic soon.

[SIRI]
Company for Mass?

[GOODWIN]
Thanks for the helping hand, ma'am.

[HERON]
You doing any of the Necrohol patrols?

[ASPEL]

How [............................................] is your Cactuar?

[......................................................] Did you [...] still wish to work for The Armory?


[Vivi.]
[..............] How [...] are you?


[Scarlet.]
[......] Would you [......] care to train sometime?


[Kiernan.]
I still owe you a bottle of spirits, no?


[Jareth.]
Tonight?


[Flynn.]
Have you encountered any more [..............] problems?


[Siri.]
[...] My apologies for not reaching out to you sooner. Are you well?


[Audrey.]
[...] How are you?


[Seloria.]
[......] Are you [...] still well?

[...............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................] Come over?

On behalf of the Mages' Guild, I would like to thank those who have so far contributed to the reconstruction efforts around Emillion as well as in the environs of the Mages' Tower, including of course those who have given their support to those who needed it. There is much left to accomplish yet, but I am proud to announce that repairs are coming along nicely.

The Fighters' and Bards' Guild have our heartfelt appreciation as well, for their invaluable support and their continuing efforts to cooperate with our guild to make Emillion a better and safer place to live in.

The offer of assistance that I announced weeks ago as Councilor still stands, and I would like to renew it as Sage. Any who find themselves in need of help may come to us, if they so wish, and we will do our best to provide.

Additionally, as the lower floors of the Tower are completely rebuilt and classes have resumed, I would like to invite those still concerned with the way our guild operates to come observe one or several of the basic classes being taught to scholars, over the next month and starting this upcoming Monday. A list of classes available for free audit will be made public this evening. Members of the other guilds and citizens alike are welcome to attend, with the understanding that the Tower is a place of learning and that atmosphere should not be disturbed. We also cannot promise that those who attend will emerge accomplished casters, as such is a matter of magical affinity and discipline, though our instructors will be happy to answer lesson-related questions as they would for any other student.

[ MG ]

First of all, thank you to everyone who took the time to vote during the recent election, as well as those who have assisted, and continue to assist, with reconstruction efforts. It is thanks to those efforts that we can make use of the Tower in semi-normal conditions again.

Further information will follow soon. For the moment, know that assistance will of course be given to those who ask and, should you have any concerns, you are encouraged to bring them up with either myself or the Council.

Be safe.

My mom is at the clinic, still unconscious. If anyone comes near the store while it's blocked off, you're going to answer to me, and I am not fucking joking.

[ FRIENDS & TASK FORCE (+ TOKU). ]
[...] How's everyone?

[ SIRI. ]
Better?

Anyone seen the princess Aisling?

[Ash]

Fuck's sake, princess, answer already.

[Fee]

Going to hope your luck was better than mine.

[Siri]

[....................................................] You alive, prophetess?

The city is being invaded across all districts. These monsters are powerful; please, do not engage unless prepared to face them, and flee if your life is at risk. Trust in yourselves. If we stand together, we can defeat this threat.

[ MG Council ]
[.............] I have been informed that this catastrophe may have been initiated by [........] our own Sage, the Lady Vivian Xi. I am heading to confront her as we speak. [......] She is of our guild. She is our responsibility.

Be safe.

[Cian]

Something is not right.

[Theo]

Question.

[Caspar & Rictor]

I'm looking for something. Help me look.

[Cian]

I'll see you soon.

Ah, Founders. Cheap alcohol, rides and food. I'm down.

[ Loch ]
Same as every year, yeah? This year I want pistachio.

[ Cian ]
You going to the ball?

[ Miles ]
Break a leg tomorrow.
