Who: Everyone
Where: In the Sacred City
When: King’s Year 199, Mid Winter to Late Winter
What:

[The days pass. The sun, gentle and warm, takes its steady course across the sky. Many marvels have sprung into the world. The library to the east starts filling with books from every place who had room on their wagons for them. The forges fill with craftsmen. The temple receives offerings and sacrifices of burned meat and sacred mementos regularly. The Arena is a favored place of Pyxis who wish to forget the limits of the land they're in. Those who've the know-how have begun to till the land and found it fertile. And in the north, some have begun making a shrine to the recovery of the Old Man. Docks have begun to be built upon the great lake, and most have delighted to find that the vegetation here regrows at a miraculous pace.

... Life continues on.

But not without its sorrows or its signs.

Hit hardest were the some of the order of Ophiuchus... the priests of the sea wept openly at something only they could hear as their amulets broke and shattered with the hiss of evaporating water. At the sound, the few priests who remain of the Daughters of the Sky, Gentlest of Lights looked up with dead eyes, saw no sign of their patron in the miraculous sky, drew curved crescent daggers from their sheaths. The forests. The plains. Minor spirits. ... By the madness of many and the deaths of more... what was not here, IS truly gone, and many whom were so blessed are now cursed. Though many people take heart in the fact that most of the Order of Ophiuchus remains still, true and deeply connected with their God, soothed by their presence.

And perhaps the most disturbing feeling rumors have come from the earth shamans of Canis. That they cannot shake the feeling that we are not where we were.

That we are deep.

....

The sun rises, gentle and warm. The grass is soft below your feet and the aroma of wildflowers brushes past your nose.

The wind blows softly, bringing a cool touch to your skin.

It is another day, life continues on.

((OOC: Use this how you like! Day in the life, information pooling, playing out what your people are doing in this time! Just whatever threads!

As a headsup, history posts, both pre cataclysm and after can be made through Thursday only! Backthreading IN them of course will be okay as long as anyone likes but nothing new after then!

As a reminder, we are wrapping up on Thursday!))

What do you want me to do, demonstrate that you can't trust me? You're not listening to me at all.

[because I am whining and having stupid self-defeatist angst, BUT AS FAR AS I'M CONCERNED THIS IS LEGITIMATE]

Don't change the subject.

That's what you're saying, isn't it?

So that's it? You're just giving up?

What else am I supposed to do? Keep waiting for them to let us go back?

No. We're going to find another way.

Or we're going to set our sights a little higher.

[he lifts his head from staring at the ground to look at her. is she suggesting what it sounds like?]

You want to try fighting them, if that's what it comes down to?

I promised myself whatever it took.

If that's what there is left... I'll do it.

[he pauses to consider, and eyes closed. he's not that hard to convince, for someone who so adamant a moment ago. maybe because part of himself never would have agreed to what he was just doing. If there's still something he can do, if he can still help then... maybe, it will be okay. If he's here, a while longer to help.

he opens his eyes and smiles, bright familiar and fake, (though maybe not so much as normal)]

Sorry ma'am, you're right. If there's still something we can do, I'll help.

[Except this time, she's going to call him on it. How dare you voice suicidal thoughts, you aren't allowed to get yourself killed after she's gotten attached. >(]

Good. Now wipe that idiotic smile off your face so we can talk business.

[what do you mean I can't go back to just pretending like I'd never said anything. :( dropsssssssss the smile. i guess. this is hard, he's not used to this at all]

Okay...

Like I was saying.

If they won't let us go back, we have two choices. We can find our own way up, or we can focus on what we can reach. For now, let's focus on the first.

So try breaking through the walls, or tunneling under and around?

Exactly. The walls themselves are probably too strong,considering the time and effort put into them, but if we look for a way around them, it might be possible.

When it was being built, I don't think anyone bothered working on the underneath, since it was only supposed to protect us on the sides and the top from the sun, so it might work... But it we're really that deep, it could be a long way up.

There's no way to know for certain until we try. And the longer we stay, if the rumors are true, the deeper we're getting.

[Bends to retrieve the knife and leaves the ward where it's fallen.]

I'm through with waiting. Let's get started.

[smiles a little bit at that, to see her familiar determination, before he remembers she told him to stop that. and. ducks his head to hide it while he goes back to a neutral expression. idk, are sincere smiles allowed or I faked it too much and boy who cried wolf NO MORE FOR NEBULA EVER]

All right.

[She doesn't call him on that one; maybe she has learned to tell, after all this time. She just turns toward the settlement and begins to walk.]

We'll need supplies first. After that, we can leave right away.

Okay. Should I ask around, or do you have anything put away?

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)


[info]byallmeans

I have access to the supply areas. I'll say I'm doing inventory, and we can take what we need.
