I meant to mention this last night, but just an update that there will not be any Zeph'aeratam classes this week. I'll see you all next week, though, with snacks on hand. If there are requests, let me know.

DOA LEADERSHIP + DEL

I just wanted you all to know from me and not an out of office email that I'm going to be out all of this week on some personal leave. Hopefully this plant business doesn't get any further out of hand, though I think it's a little outside of my jurisdiction at the DOA anyway. My meager druidic magic didn't make any differences when I tried, at least.

And Del, I've got you on here just so you're aware for patrols. Sorry to leave things short.

	I hope everything's okay, Orym. Let us know if you need anything. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Thanks, Kara, I really appreciate that. We had a bit of a rough time under our roof with a recent round of memories from home and I just want to focus on being present here as much as I can. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Oh, no, I'm so sorry. That's completely understandable. I hope everyone gets to feeling better. I've heard memory updates aren't easy. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	They're never a walk in the park, at least not the ones that I've dealt with, but the fact it happened to all of us is just weighing in different ways. We'll be okay, with time. That's almost always the case, at least. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Gilmore/Orym littlemoon 2024-08-12 07:37 pm UTC (link)
	Ah, it's been a bit of a lot over here. We all remember more from home and there were losses, which is hard enough on its own but kind of has a whole other layer to it being here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	We actually went to the moon, though. It's not worth what all happened in the end to say that, but who knew. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Gilmore/Orym runechild 2024-08-12 08:03 pm UTC (link)
	Who knew such a thing was even possible? Although we do travel to other planes of existence, so I suppose leaving Exandria was bound to be able to happen at some point in time. Do you have a plan for Ludinas? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

We were actually with Ludinus, last I remember, which is--infuriating. We'd found out he was poking around in Aeor and the Tempest sent us up there to see what was going on. He was looking for some bit of Aeorian tech that he thought was going to enlighten us about his motivations, I guess. The memories didn't get quite that far, so who knows what it was.

So the plan is a work in progress. I'd like to put an end to him, personally.

	Gilmore/Orym runechild 2024-08-12 08:18 pm UTC (link)
	Wouldn't we all. I've never had the pleasure of meeting him personally, however. I'm glad to see you taking some time off, Orym, even if it's just this week. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Gilmore/Orym littlemoon 2024-08-12 10:47 pm UTC (link)
	I probably should have taken time off long before something like this happened, but it is what it is. Maybe the next vacation can be for nice things. I just want to be available. ~~Dorian~~ I'm worried about Dorian. Are you okay? I know you didn't see the stuff we did, but Chet was going to reach out with the whole uh orb business.

	Oh darling, you know me, I'm completely fine always. What happened to Dorian? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Gilmore/Orym littlemoon 2024-08-13 12:06 am UTC (link)
	Are you sure? This is the first time he's gotten memories like this, which is disorienting on its own, but he lost his brother. It had only been a couple of days. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Gilmore/Orym runechild 2024-08-13 12:56 am UTC (link)
	Perfectly fine. I'm so sorry to hear that. That is a loss that I can only imagine how terrible it is to bear. Would it help to go somewhere for a bit? Change of scenery? You both can feel all of your feelings somewhere a bit more private? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Gilmore/Orym littlemoon 2024-08-13 01:02 am UTC (link)
	I'm not entirely sure, if I'm honest. I've been playing it by ear, seeing how he feels from moment to moment. A change of scenery could help, but we all also lost FCG right before we reunited with Dorian so it's hard wanting to go anywhere and letting them out of sight, too.

	Gilmore/Orym runechild 2024-08-13 01:48 am UTC (link)
	Entirely reasonable and understandable. Your instinct is lovely and good, Orym, I don't know what I think the right call is to make there. But you also have other friends and methods to communicate with those friends--you're not leaving someone alone. You're simply taking a little time and allowing other people to step in, and then later you can step in for them. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Gilmore/Orym littlemoon 2024-08-13 02:30 am UTC (link)
	I know, I do. Knowing is easy, though. Acting on that knowledge is just a little harder. ~~I feel~~ ~~I should be able to~~ (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Gilmore/Orym runechild 2024-08-13 02:45 am UTC (link)
	That's why I'm giving you permission, darling. Sometimes we need to hear it from others. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Gilmore/Orym littlemoon 2024-08-13 03:53 am UTC (link)
	You're not wrong and I appreciate it. It's kind of like how it's okay if you're not actually always completely fine. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Gilmore/Orym runechild 2024-08-13 12:52 pm UTC (link)
	Hardly comparable! I'm worried about Vax, of course. This whole thing has been--odd, for him. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Gilmore/Orym littlemoon 2024-08-13 03:43 pm UTC (link)
	I can imagine. A few of us were contacted by the Matron, for lack of a better way of putting it, and she's--worried, I think? I wish there was more we could do. (Reply to this) (Parent)
