week zero: mingle

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.

[ despite it all, xion's voice is tinged with disbelief. ]

...

Sol, is he really...

No, but... that doesn't change anything. Whether I knew him or not—he shouldn't have died!

What... what are we supposed to do now?

"Mission"...?

[ that word specifically flips a switch for xion, and her usually soft-spoken voice becomes wracked with frustration. ]

What are you saying? That someone here killed him, and now it's our job to figure it out?

What are you talking about? Why can't you say anything in a way that makes sense?

[ ANGERY............. ]

That doesn't answer anything! I don't understand—I just want you to explain!

[ why doesn't anyone ever have answers? ]

[ she's trying her best to keep herself together, she really is. but there's something about the way sol says her name that just—does something to her, causes something inside of her to crack a little.

rather than continuing to scream at and argue with them, she instead turns on her heel and starts to run away. much like how she did when she was at the scrolls on their first day here, she tugs the hood of her dress over her head (even though most have seen her face, it still makes her feel comfortable, or something close to it with how upset she is right now) as she flees, withdrawing further within herself despite the progress she seems to have made so far. ]
