week zero: mingle

[cyclists]

Week Zero
32 in Competition

On Monday morning, the sun rises on the sleepy village, and when the first ray of light touches the gates at each corner of the village, the previously tightly sealed doors open.

The barriers around the village fall, and leave it entirely open. Each cardinal direction will have a path exiting the village, taking the curious explorers who follow it on an adventure to new territories to be explored. They’ll find that each location that they arrive in appears to be associated with one of the elements. As the Signs had explained the day before, each of the participants in the game possesses an elemental assignment, whether they are aware of it or not.

When they approach the elemental areas, they’ll find themselves more in tune with their new powerset, as if the location invites them to take them out for a spin. The new areas appear to be perfect for training and learning how to use the new skills, or maybe if you’re curious you can discover which of those listed powers you’ve been granted.

Just try not to hurt yourself while you’re out there.

In addition, it seems now that more pieces of the core are being revealed, the river that runs through the village will begin to be dotted with small lanterns floating on the water. Some of them seem to be holding small notes. Try as you might to grab one, they’ll always just barely float out of reach.

Perhaps try sending one yourself and see what results you might get?

Occasionally in the village, you might hear the sound of drums and flutes - is that festival music? - though no matter how you search, you can’t find the source… yet.

[ Minato likes rice. And noodles, and bread. Carbs. Minato likes carbs. But he's somewhat surprised to hear that a hyena eats rice, when he expected a meat-based diet, the same way he had expected Valvatorez to burn up in the sunlight but he didn't do that either. ]

Vally is teaching me how to fish, so if that sounds alright, I'll grill up a couple of those?

[liversandhyenas]

[Hey, it sure wasn't her idea, haha. But yeah, hyenas are omnivores. They just are really into meat]

...you already know how to clean a fish?

[There comes Grim Eyes, already muscling her way into what other people do]

[compendiem]

...I can learn how to clean a fish.

[ He knows enough to scrape off as much of the scales as he can, but then he was just going to throw the entire fish onto a pan, sear both sides, and call it done. ]

[liversandhyenas]

You will learn, that's right. Better be ready to get your hands dirty.

[She's willing to teach, yeah. She's just pretty used to taking charge of stuff when she can.

Besides, she can appreciate someone willing to learn]

[compendiem]

[ Minato laughs, a silent huff of breath more than a laugh, because he's gotten his hands dirty plenty of times, figuratively and literally, over more complicated things than gutting fish. ]

I'm not afraid to get my hands dirty. I want us to share a nice meal. So, whatever it takes.
