Who: All regular Blanks
Where: In your dorms
When: Day 155 and 156
What:

[It doesn't really happen all at once, or to every dorm at the same time. But over these two days, you might spy a tiny spider slipping under the door. It is soon followed by several others, skittering along the floor, up the common room table and small cocoons of webbing are industriously opened. Almost as quickly and efficiently they scatter, vanishing.

If you missed this event... then perhaps you simply looked over and saw six small memory berries and the traces of webbing around them, fine threads catching the torchlight.]

((OOC: Two things! FIRST! Start your dorm's threads with [Your Team Name] for the sake of organization. SECOND. When you take your memories, ping Nishi with a thread link.))

As you swallow the memory berry, you feel something in your stomach clench and your mind seems to fray at the edges for a split second as you experience the memory unfolding in your consciousness.

[[You urge your steed faster. The long, bounding strides of the orvi takes the glassy rock pathways of your homeland with deceptive ease. You know the great raptor is tiring, the breathing of the clawed bird labored and fast.

You'd left the hunting hounds a day behind, the orvi miraculously escaping those fanged, crushing jaws. Both of you had ridden nearly all night to put extra distance between them, and now you catch yourself swaying further and further with the creatures waddling gait. You cast around, seeking with keen eyes a place to hide for the night. Or at least long enough for your bird to get a second breath.

They couldn't hunt you forever. All you had to do was make it to the border. Lynx's regent would give you sanctuary... at least enough to resupply.]]

As you return, the memory settles, interlaced with the rest of your recovered life, as if that was just another part of the world and people you left behind. It's hard to shake any of the conviction that it was real and it had happened to you, any more than you would a normal memory.

[There is the gentle sound of a shuttle moving through taut thread, and as the memory settles deep, your eyes open to the familiar garments of your kin on both yourself and those around you, dyed in deep hues.

Best and the worst was that they stood up to what you could put them through. Roan was good for that; woven tight and coated well it was tough against brush and shed scales both, and while no one ever wanted to ride all night and well to seeing [Dawn's] eyes, everyone did, sooner or later. Itched like mad after the fiftieth hour, but there were soft penna undershirts to stop the worst of it, and to wick the moisture from sweat-drenched skin. Sure you could wear something lighter, but when the last fool who shrugged off his jacket came back with spitter burns covering half his body, you think twice.

Good cut, though, on those jackets. Sharp. Double breasted (though half the buttons stayed hid; less to catch the ground if you took a spill), rested just at the top of the thigh, it more fitted on the female frame, sure, but still something you felt you could respect. Good, strong belts, Slacks down to good, stout pair of ankle boots on the men, and looser trousers, higher boots for the women who could ride the still-fledging orvi without bearing too hard on their bones. And hats, good caps of felted whisp fur, brimmed to keep the sun from your eyes and full enough, especially among the women, to wrap a full head of hair under if need be.

Good, sturdy clothing, all of it. Now if it just needed to be a bit less durable . . . that'd be the life.]
