Arrival.

GREETINGS.

Several days through the woods seems to have at least been preferable than several days through snow; it's seen several evolutions, as well as new friends joining you along the way. It's been a long trip, but not an altogether unpleasant one, and when the route through the forest finally opens up back onto open road, it's a relatively short walk to Floaroma Town.

This place is much smaller than any of the cities you've been to so for; it's a tiny town in the relative middle of nowhere, surrounded by vast fields of flowers and large, open meadows. It's peaceful, for lack of a better word, and likely far more welcoming than it could have been given the recent improvements in the people lately.

You'll be getting in sometime late afternoon; given that the town is so small, it seems that the people here are definitely noticing you - there are a fairly large number of you in your group, after all, especially to all be traveling together. Not like that's a bad thing; they certainly don't seem to think it is. But it is noticeable, and as such you're going to have a few people that seem...dully interested in your sudden appearance.

Although it's worth noticing that not all of the people noticing your arrival are locals - there's someone here that you might want to meet eventually...

[OOC: Welcome to the end of Week 9! As of this log, you'll be gaining a new party member; feel free to come say hello!

No NPC response will be given to this post, though you can thread here amongst yourselves if you wish; we'll see you tomorrow at noon with a new log for your further adventures!]

Not - in that way, no.

[well that's a comforting hesitation and turn of phrase]

[Comforting is the exact opposite word we need to be using here.]

...I...probably don't want to know, do I?

[Michael clasps his hands.]

Can't imagine you do, no.

[In that case, let's change the subject instead.]

W-well, besides all of that...you've really never had anyone in your group have anything like that happen to them, right? You've all been okay so far?
eudaimonikos: (and in the end)

[personal profile] eudaimonikos 2018-08-11 05:36 am (UTC)(link)
Well -

[Michael hesitates, and begins again.]

Sometimes people just sort of...vanish. We tried keeping a close watch when we first realized it was happening, but we still never saw where they went. Just turn around one morning and it'd be like they were never there at all.

It doesn't happen often. Definitely less now than before. But it's something to keep an eye on, if any one of us starts acting a little off.

[he's just describing the drop mechanic tbh]

[It's good to know, at least!]

...Oh.

[That's more than a little unnerving, though...]

I hope nothing bad is happening. Maybe they just...decided to not be with the group anymore? And didn't tell anyone to avoid causing trouble...
eudaimonikos: (fear and trembling)

In the middle of a foreign world, where everyone else is either evil or vacant?

...okay yeah, I see your point.
