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.))

...Now I can say I am more than a little tempted. It isn't exactly property destruction...

[ Enkidu envisions such an expression as well and find themselves more entertained at the prospect than they expected.

Though, for now... ]

Not at all. But, I thought it'd be a pleasant way to spend the time. And maybe...it makes me think about some other things too.

A lot of things are made up of sand, dirt, and the like.

[ And a lot of things that die, return to it just the same. ]

[provocatives]

[clearly this is how murder is thwarted for friday as the culprit trips and faceplants into enkidu's cart of sand as he's wheeling it over to makima's place

But okay, right. Sand castles and the nature of things. He's not entirely sure why Enkidu's making that connection now, but it seems like the past weekend has gotten people into a thoughtful mood, for better or worse.]

I suppose there are. ...And? Surely there's more to it than that?

[That people and other living things return to the earth may be an inviolable truth, but it certainly isn't the first thought that comes to his mind when Enkidu mentions things made from dirt or sand.]

[enkiboo]

[ CLEARLY...if only that happened.

Alas, that so happens to not be the case, though. As it is, with Niles ferrying his questions towards Enkidu, they're not surprised. ]

Yes, there is. I suppose it might also be the result of a memory I received.

[ Or regained, as it were. Maybe it is unwise to say that, but it's fine. ]

I was reminded of the mortality of other living beings; even beyond the ones I don't truly know in this world we've been stolen to.
