WEEK 5

WEEK 5

monday

tuesday

wednesday

thursday

Was what happened on Friday yet another tragedy in a string of them or just a complete shitshow? Well, regardless of which line of thought you subscribe to, the reality of it is that another three of your number are no longer in this realm with you. At least the remains of what had happened last week have been neatly cleaned up as always, even if that might not change what’s been etched in your memories. The drum set in the jazz bar remains busted though, because the masterminds aren't that generous. At least the tarot shop and boutique remain fine even if the vanished crystals and women's clothing aren't going to be restocked.

But either way, it’s a new week, and that means new locations to explore as the fog gives way to more of the city and its lamplit streets. The new moon waxes to half this week, appearing as a crescent moon for most of the week. It's far from optimistic, but maybe the brightening is a sign that this will be over soon...? Or maybe it just means the worst is yet to come, it's hard to say.

[[Welcome to Week 5! Note that new areas have been added, and can be found under the Week 5 tab on our Locations page. Once again, feel free to make top levels at your discretion, and remember to note it in your header if you plan on investigating any locations.

Orbal... what now?

[ He knows the distinct sound of a shitty pun failing to land when he hears one but he has no idea what this pun even means! ]

[reanbeans]

Orbal...like orbal arts or...well, it slipped my mind for a second that hardly anyone would know the terminology.

[ Alas, but at least there was someone who did make a pun in this meeting and the thought counted, right?? ]

[bawcock]

Orbal arts, eh? Never heard of it, but it does remind me of something. You wouldn't happen to use crystal balls for it, would you?

[ Fortune telling must be big in Rean's world. ]

[reanbeans]

Well, some fortune tellers do have crystal balls, but they don't really cast orbal arts on them or anything.

[ Fortune telling was actually pretty relatively common in his world, so Erik's presumption wasn't wrong! He vaguely thought of Beryl back home too. ]

...As far as I know, anyway.

But using orbal arts is closer to something like casting 'magic', to make an easier comparison.

[bawcock]

[ Huh... ]

If it's a fancy way of saying spells, I think I get it. Too bad it's a little too late to laugh at your joke.

[reanbeans]

Basically, yeah. But, it's fine.

I don't really mind. I guess I was desperate to try to lighten the mood.

[ Considering everything... ]
