out of options for who i can be

[promittere]

LIGHT UP THE FIREWORKS

Lazuli seems… agitated, this morning. Not so much in the sense that he’s irritable (because that's just normal, really), but it seems as if something has gotten under his skin. He keeps looking up, out the windows or out over the horizon, and it seems eventually he grows tired of whatever it is bothering him. He accosts whoever it is that seems to have little to do this day, gathering a group of competent (...?) wizards.

“I need you to come with me,” he says, arms crossed and a furrow between his brows. “Something’s not right, even more than things usually aren't right.”

Vague, but do you really have the option to ignore him? You can certainly try, but it won’t get you anywhere. You’re being dragged onto this impromptu excursion whether you want to go or not. Lazuli drags the group to the elevator, using a mana stone to transport everyone to the Northern tower. On the other side is the same snowy wasteland that’s always there, and nothing seems amiss no matter how hard you strain your senses. Lazuli seems to get even more tense, though, summoning and mounting his broom.

“Follow me. We can talk while we fly, but we don’t have long.”

OOC NOTES

🌙 Welcome to the mini-event! This isn't going to be anything too crazy and not likely to impact the trajectory of the game too terribly if you spend the entire thing just fucking around and finding out, so just have fun! If you play your cards right, though, you might find yourselves a new ally.

Hmm, well...it is fortunate we'll be able to protect ourselves against it.

[ Time to use the amulet to fortify defenses...protection magic plus in our relative soon to be future. ]

A warning? About an enemy? Or something else?

[meanspirited]

Something else.

[He gestures with one hand.]

This world is undergoing constant, rapid changes, and it's been out of balance for a very long time. Things want to be in balance, or else there wouldn't be the concept of homeostasis at all. With every change, there's a ripple, and while things are getting closer to being at balance there are still things making the world act unpredictably and chaotically.

[foresightis2020]

Hrm...

Then it is up to us to find what that is and put a stop to it, yes?

[ Seems simple enough in practice. You know, besides the whole entire toxic forest thing and whatever other threats may lie inside that they do not know about. ]

[meanspirited]

Yes. It shouldn't be that complicated, so long as you don't lose sight of what's real.

[foresightis2020]

[ A little smile, at that. ]

Haha, now that you don't have to be concerned about.

No matter what has happened, I have never lost sight of what lies truly in front of me.

[meanspirited]

Good. I hope you manage to stick with that, there. I don't know exactly what you're going to see, after all.

[foresightis2020]

I'll prepare myself for the worst.

Such as seeing myself go bald in a reflection within a pool of water...how terrible.

[The look Jing Yuan gets is so unimpressed...]

Right.

[i hope someone makes a bald jing yuan sticker now... please... do it for me]
