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.))

[The concept of keeping creatures as pets is a new one to Noah, as is the notion that any sort of bond can be established with them. Why it hadn't occurred to him sooner is the same reason why many things that are the norm for others haven't: life is simply different where he comes from, void of many experiences that are common to everyone else here.

Noah looks into the horse's eyes, glossy and dark, and cautiously extends a hand to its muzzle. It's soft, warm, alive in all the same ways humans are.]

We didn't interact much with the animals on Aionios. We hunted them when we were in need of their meat, and that's as far as it went. I'd never stopped to wonder if they might make better companions than meals.

…A shame.

[How lonely would Beelzebub be, if - when he didn’t have the company of fellow Gods and angels - he didn’t have animals either?]

Even early Human civilisations domesticated animals. [And if even humans did it…] What are they like back on Aionios?

Wild. We don't keep beasts as pets or use them in our work. Our world is quite different from the norm in many ways... but the sorts of animals people here keep as pets don't even exist on Aionios.
