Welcome to Night Vale

This is…hmm.

Not good. I think not good is definitely how I would describe it…

I mean the technology is fascinating but everything is a bit…bad.

Kasimir, old man, are you around? Zillah? Lilith? Barnaby?

I suppose it's time to venture a bit more outside of my comfort zone, so to speak, and get to know Night Vale more. Is there any theater here? If so, how would one get involved?

Apparently I ought to introduce myself since I've ended up here somehow. Edward Teach, formerly of the Queen Anne's Revenge.

I've finally cracked, haven't I?

I love the start of spring. It just feels so good. Everything coming into bloom and all that life.

It's been so nice just getting to create things.

I've been growing a lot of new plants, so if anyone needs any for anything, just let me know. There's a lot of flowers obviously, in addition to the desert plants, and also some medicinal plants. Just all kind of things. My creative juices have been flowing. Maybe I should set up a florist shop or maybe a bakery

hades.

I have a whole section I thought you might like, if you wanted to see them.

So it would appear I've been kidnapped by skeletons, which I honestly just...probably should have expected it at this point? Things were going a bit too well. They're polite enough though, and they did ask me to write my own ransom note on account of how they can't read or write. Which...really, I could write anything I like. But seeing as I will probably get bored of this soon, I really ought to share their demands.

They want...okay, I probably should have paid more attention when they were telling me that part, but in my defense, I was bored and also did not really care all that much. They should have thought about this before picking me because I have never in my life not made my existence someone's problem and I intend to make them suffer. But just in case I get sick of this before they give up, I think they wanted a great deal of...I think they said fledge? So just a lot of feathers. Can't begin to say why.

In the meantime, I plan to make them regret everything. Have fun, lovelies.

I went out to the ship. The one in the desert. I can't I thought there might be some gold interesting things that that I could steal salvage, and that I might actually find some bits that I could take for the Pour Judgement. You know, kitsch. But I can't... I literally can't put into words what I saw.

It was beautiful. Massive. And it definitely shouldn't have been there. A giant white whale, just swimming in the sand like it was meant to be there. It jumped out of it and just... hovered in the air for awhile before diving back down and disappearing. It's got to still be out there. I tried to There was just too much sand for me to see where it vanished to into it. The hole filled up immediately. But It's got to still be out there.

We need to go back out there. Look for it! It could mean something.

oxventurers + friends

SKY WHALE! MERILWEN! SKY WHALE! Or Desert Whale. But it definitely looked like it could fly for a moment if it had really wanted to. Either way!

DOB! IT'S CLEARLY A SIGN! IT HAS TO MEAN SOMETHING! WHY ELSE WOULD I SEE IT?

Who knows what ELSE could be out there, too? Desert octopi? Desert sharks? Desert Cthulhu?

Honestly, I wouldn't really be surprised by that last one considering this place.

WE'VE GOT TO GO TRACK IT DOWN! We've GOT to!

Call me Ishmael.

Well. This is interesting.

At least I still have my books and my cat.

I'm sorry about all the chaotic plants. I was a little upset when I got here, but things are better now.

I'm working on getting things more in order but this place could definitely use more greenery. I mean, don't get me wrong. It's really nice here. I just think everything's better with more plants.

I'm Kore Persephone. I'm really looking forward to getting to know everyone!

My visions have been strange lately. Maybe it's just this place, I'm not sure.

Or maybe I should get more sleep.

Probably not that.

I need to get Book Club going again. Everyone who was involved is sort of gone now.

aelwyn.

You didn't come home the other night.

I'm not accusing you of anything, to be clear. I just worry.

Text me next time?

This definitely isn’t Geth.

Well, shit. This is definitely neither Kirkwall nor the Maker's Bosom. Unless it got even weirder, this isn't even the Fade.

Urianger, what have you done now?

This certainly is not the Source.

By the Twelve, I need a drink.

Someone has ten seconds to reply to this and explain how come I'm here again but was back in Geth before and had no recollection of this place but I do now. Or else.

Huh. I just realised I've been here over a year now. Time certainly does fly, doesn't it?

[ARCHIVES CREW + KATE]

Perhaps a family dinner soon? I remember deciding to do a Thanksgiving dinner last year and I certainly wouldn't mind that again, though it's not until later.

So, with Juno gone, I'm looking for a new job. Any leads around town? My experience is mostly in research, but I'm quick to learn and willing to do just about anything so I don't go absolutely batshit mental.

Has anyone seen Prudence? I thought she might have been trying to manage her whole... full moon thing, but it's been well over a week since the moon was full, and I still haven't found her.

Dob? Egbert? You guys are still here? Right? Please don't tell me I'm all alone again

I guess... I guess if Prudence is gone, the Pour Judgment is going to need a new bouncer. If anyone's interested. Practical things. Practical things. Don't get upset. Worry about the practical

You guys are here, aren't you? It's Egbert.

I don't like this. It's too small to write on.

Did Binbag do this? I tried roaring his name into the sky but nothing happened. A few people stared but nothing helpful happened.

Right. So since Lance is gone and building new friendships is ultimately meaningless and everyone eventually leaves the Pour Judgment could use a new bartender. Or maybe a couple. That way when someone else just up and vanishes, we won't have to drag in someone new

If anyone has any interest, just let me know.

This is fine

corazón & prudence.

Alternately, we just...shut the pub down and just stay in Necropolis-non-Sea forever and just don't try to make new friends who will ultimately abandon us any more.

That's also a thought.
