November Adventure: The Good, The Bad, And The Dirty



NEW ISLAND: MONSUN
Who: Everyone!
What: Monsun appears, and a new adventure begins.
When: November 24th
Where: Across the islands!
Warnings: Tag as you go!


I've Never Been Better- Or Worse
As per the Storyteller's advice, the morning of the 24th will find characters waking to the sight of land in the far distance; Monsun is now accessible for one-way travel. Your mission, should you choose to volunteer for it? Traverse to this new land, and locate the mana pool. All characters will be reminded on departure that they may not be capable of returning until they have, so pack wisely.

The land of Monsun, even from a distance, may strike travelers as a peculiar one. One half appears to be made up of lush, deciduous woodland entirely at odds with the coastal, tropical aesthetic that Ensō so boasts. The other half appears to be dry and bare, full of cracking cliffs and sandy wastelands. Indeed, once characters set foot on this new land, they will discover that this is precisely the case: the island is divided by a dark ribbon of water, an east side rich with life and a west side stark and rife with danger.

And yet, it isn't that simple.

Feeling prepared? Now is the time to make arrangements and collect what you'll need for the journey. Find companions, say goodbye to loved ones- and of course, take your first step forwards into new lands. Best of luck, adventurers.

You may need it.



Welcome to the new island of Monsun! As the island is now accessible, feel free to begin preparations and explorations in this log- or create new ones of your own! For further information in regards to the island, or plotting, the following links may prove handy:

    Thereth's original idea was to scout around the perimeter of the new island, to get her bearings and perhaps start up a map. The approaching firestorm is making her reconsider this plan, though. It actually reminds her a bit of home - dry seasons in the Barrens often gave rise to brushfires, and the Stonehoof tribe knew well how to combat or avoid them - so she doesn't get overly concerned about it, instead calmly turning around and lifting her hand to summon her undead warhorse.

    Except, of course, the warhorse doesn't come, because she can't summon things here. Right. Okay, she's a little more concerned now; she's not the fastest runner, especially not while she's in full plate armor. She starts to jog north, hoping to spot something that might help.

    "Hello, dear," she says calmly to the young human(?) she spots after a minute or so of running. "You don't happen to have any sort of steed, do you?"

    None of this was going as planned. He was only try to resource scout, not run into yet another natural disaster. If there was a break to be caught, it apparently wasn't on this island. He was about to get himself moving away from the approaching storm when he was greeted.

    At first, "monster" crossed his brain. It was on instinct that his sword was summoned to his hand. However, in that some millisecond, he noticed that the approaching "creature" did seem to have a threatening goal in her body. "Uh....." Really, Noctis should be surprised. He had already made acquaintances with a purple girl that resemble a spider. Why not a talking cow lady? "No. .. . .?"

    His response isn't entirely unfair, or unexpected - humans and tauren are actually enemies back home, and besides, anyone might pause at the sight of a 7-foot tall armored axe-wielding cow. But she's pleased to find him open-minded and willing to talk first and swing swords later. Despite being a death knight, she doesn't tend to start fights.

    "Oh, well." It was worth asking, at least! She shrugs and motions in the direction away from the firestorm. "In that case, we should keep running. I'm not at all fireproof."

    "Sounds great."

    He'd have to ask questions later. Now there was a firestorm on their heels. Wait, did she even have heels? Of course now, there was the issue he had another person(?) to worry about other than himself. Hopefully, nothing that would cause him to be heroic would happen. He'd have no choice by to opt for it.
