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.

[preowned]

Wow, thanks for offering!

[ as if he didn't basically just force kara to but it's fine ]

[unfriendliest]

[ needy ]

Was there something else you wanted to do?

[preowned]

Uh...

[ he's trying to quickly think of something, but he's also drunk so it's taking longer than it should be. ]

[unfriendliest]

[ that's fine, kara will just be here petting the horse until tsuru thinks of something or just drags him away ]

[preowned]

[ ..... ]

Let's get them food!

[unfriendliest]

[ ...he finally steps away from the horse ]

Okay.

[preowned]

[ i can't believe the only way to get kara to step away from horses is

more horse related stuff

but off to the barn then, because there is presumably food there ]

[unfriendliest]

[ ok he's following tsuru then ]

You didn't really need me to come with you for this.

[preowned]

You're better with animals than I am!

[ it's a good excuse, at least ]

[unfriendliest]

[ ...? ]

I thought you liked animals.

[preowned]

I do. You can still be better with them though.

[ it's more that kara deres over them more than tsuru does ]

[unfriendliest]

[ the look on his face says he doesn't really believe that but ok ]

If I am, it's because you wanted to ride them drunk.

[preowned]

I'm not drunk.

[ he's very drunk ]

[unfriendliest]

You are.

[ what if he just ignores that he is too ]

[preowned]

I am completely sober, Kara-bou.

[ he trips over his own feet as he says that, but catches himself ]

[unfriendliest]

[ hm ]

Then you're losing your touch, if you're tripping like that.

[preowned]

No I'm not! Watch this!

[ he just immediately starts running to the barn

embarrassing ]

[unfriendliest]

[ why is he like that

kara's not going to chase him so he just follows at his own pace with a sigh ]

[preowned]

[ that's fine

he's going to wait at the entrance for him, waving his hand excitedly ]

[unfriendliest]

...I don't understand why you want to race so badly.
