Who: All, eventually
Where: Various
When: King's Year 198, early fall
What: A messenger approaches.

[A tall, gaunt man walks across the plains alone approaching a small gathering of Pyxis tribes, with little fear or hesitation. He seems to have appeared out of almost nowhere, and unphased by the pre-monsoon winds. He swathed in the black uniforms of an Ophiuchus priest and uniform is lined with red. Though his cloak is drawn over his face, you can see something of a tight line of his lips and his hands, when he speaks, are slow moving and expressive.

He stops just before the first tribesman approaching him.]

I seek the chieftain of all the tribes, and then the clan with the greatest speed and experience.

((OOC: ALL THE COUNTRIES will be visited to speak with a regent, king, leader or whatnot. If you don't have a player character who is suitable, feel free to use sabra_la_au to speak for them. If you're stumped and want us to whip something up or off screen it, let Nishi know and we'll work something out.))

	The Lady of Truth has begun a new tapestry. Its threads were not for my mortal eyes. But the Gods, in the vision that had come to me, were alarmed by what it portrayed. The message was clear... A time of trouble is upon us. Gather your people, and prepare as you will. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[frrrowns. If it's one of her tapestries . . .] A time of trouble . . . You don't have any better information than that? Not even a hint of what to expect? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Any mortal soul, who says they have even seen a thread she spins clearly, is a madman, a fool or a charlatan. Food, defenses, prepare as you would for flood or drought. Assume the worst, for this moment, I do not take to travel lightly. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[You find the twins skinning and gutting a marwok on the boardwalk. The innards are being fed to the local curwiss as they work.] [Both look up simultaneously.] G... It'll be ready for dinner soon! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: [Hydra] righthandsmoke 2010-12-09 01:43 am UTC (link)
	Hey, boys. Good work, it looks like it'll be good! You two didn't have any trouble bringing it in, did you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Just the weight. They've been straying farther lately. Easy pickings. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: [Hydra] righthandsmoke 2010-12-09 02:11 am UTC (link)
	Easier huh . . . The season must be going well. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: [Hydra] be_my_chum 2010-12-09 02:15 am UTC (link)
	Mm. This one wasn't even paying attention. [Humming over his good luck, cleans the rest of the guts out (promptly to be showered with curwiss affection) and hands the knife to Spar to do the butchering.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: [Hydra] righthandsmoke 2010-12-09 02:26 am UTC (link)
	Lucky break. . . . We might need to start taking more of them. Build up the food stores. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	What? Like another for later? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: [Hydra] righthandsmoke 2010-12-09 02:32 am UTC (link)
	A lot for later. Everyone's going to need to work on it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	. . . Finish up here and we can go talk about it with Vade. It's better discussed indoors for now. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Both of them still... not able to find any sign of mirth on the older man's face. ... They turn to work quickly, Fang going to get salt and hooks. With both concentrating on the task, it's only 15 minutes at the most, waiting for them to set the meat to cure.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[waits patiently for them to finish, thinking quietly to himself while he leans against a wall. When they look to be done he straightens up and nods at them] Ready? Come on, then. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[The library is as much as it always is; solid and (ever so slowly) sinking. The buckets by the entrance now sit permanently in their own puddle, but the water inside is fresh.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	A priest just came through here with a warning. I want to know if you've ever heard about anything like it before. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
