WEEK TWO

23 Villagers

Three people have fallen and a tower has risen. Along with it, some of the restraints on your mind have dispersed and a memory has returned to you - is it precious, is it painful? Is it cherished, is it loathed?

Mercilessly, dawn breaks on another morning. The rooster still calls, and the crops still need tending to. Rise and shine, Puffin Town! It seems like the residents are not the only thing that has chosen to rise, as a few more establishments have opened up for exploration. The sound of moo-ing near the farms may feel especially inviting here - how about making some new additions to your farms, to drown out your loneliness?

There is no festival just yet but if you question the ducks on it, some excited quacking will herald fun things to come later in the week. Some of the ducks will also wave the gift notes from last week; regardless of murder, being kind to your neighbors is still encouraged! Can't let our beautiful town sink into gloom and doom, right?

(( OOC: Murder proposals are due by Tuesday at 4 PM EST / 1 PM PST, for the current week's murder, but feel free to submit for later weeks if you like!

We have also added a page to report your Astera planting - this does not need to have been threaded, we're just taking stock on an OOC level.

Further, the Gift Mechanic has been updated. All turned in threads will now yield a character specific item as a reward! We're only dipping into the random gacha once all personalized rewards have been given out.))

I haven't ever built one. Iselia is nowhere near the seas...safely.

[So many monsters out there! And although Colette during her travels visited places that'd be great for sandcastle building, what she remembers is that she was very focused on the journey instead of trying to go out of her way to have fun unless it was to name dogs]

I'll help if you teach me.

[enkiboo]

Iselia? Is that your homeland?

[ Enkidu turns their attention towards her, inquisitive, but then back to some sand caught between their fingers. They probably got a bucket from somewheres too, idk. ]

It's simple. Just watch me.

[ They proceed to do a simple showing of how to make a very simple sand castle. ]

...Just like that. Do you believe you can copy that well enough?

[illprotecteveryone]

It's the town I live in, to the west of the world of Sylvarant. It's just a little place, like this town, but without the ducks.

[And also far less pleasant now, than she has memories. Tales of Symphonia sure began with things going rough for the village.

When Colette tries to imitate, at first the castle holds the form, before half of it erodes. Classic beginner blunder]

Oh. I have never been much of a builder.

[enkiboo]

It sounds like a nice place to be. Likely more safer too.

[ They say that without knowing that it's true, because they sure don't know what's going on over there, haha.

They watch Colette's efforts regardless, including her failure. ]

...Well, you're just starting, right? Isn't it true all skills and ability need to be trained before getting better at it? Even the most simplest ones.

[illprotecteveryone]

That's true, but at the same time one hopes for a good result at the first try, right?

[One shouldn't go into things expecting it to not turn out well! And Colette, generally positive, is like that, so it always is a little disappointing when it doesn't go like she hopes]

[enkiboo]

I see nothing wrong with that.

Though, hardly anyone ever gets anything right at the first try.

[ Enkidu can't think of anybody who did, though he imagines there are some things his best friend would claim he had. ]
