So We Can Take the World Back From the Heart-Attacked
The night of the 21st, the sun begins to dim. It dips in the horizon, sinks to nestle itself in the center of Chol like a star falling in slow motion, where it begins to smolder quietly - massive, smoking, and hot, like a massive egg. The night grows colder, the sky reduced to an inky black. The surface of the surrounding water is still but for the occasional ripple, the odd, strangely subdued wave, with not even the hollow lights of distant stars to glint off its reflective waves.
The Jormun gather around the sunken, dying sun with their scaled hands on their weapons, their expressions grim. They fan out across the island of Chol with arms in hand. Their fortifications have settled around the island's center in a dense ball of bristling weapons. They have been preparing for this. They are ready to fight.
Are you?
No more preparation. No more running.
From here on out, it is fight or die.

One Maniac At a Time, We Will Take It Back
As the Storyteller has promised, there is sanctuary in their temple on Ensō, which will keep out the worst of the creatures. It will not, however, protect characters from the cold and dark, and so they will have to keep themselves warm some other way.
The Jormun fight fiercely, but they do not fight alone. Aside from the help that the willing of your number have offered, you may glimpse the Storyteller battling alongside the rest in a flurry of strange, shifting animal shapes: a heavy-antlered reindeer, a shrieking owl with outstretched talons, a slavering grizzly bear with the Storyteller's signature tome strapped across a broad, furry back, to name but a few. Those creatures that the Storyteller defeats will burst into a flurry of paper and dark, spattering ink, rather than being felled in the conventional manner. How odd.
As this is an event with a high risk of death, the Storyteller will impose death penalties for one week only. However, deaths succumbed during the event will count towards the character's total.

Then I'll Raise You Like a Phoenix
Come the sunrise on the 28th, the sun will launch itself into the air with a victorious shriek, its wings trailing plumes of fire behind it. The phoenix takes flight, reborn from the ashes.
Munin will greet the survivors with a mixture of solemnity and relief, thanking them profusely for their help. There is not much more that her people can offer you, at this point - they must grieve their dead, and she must return to the sea to prove that she has cemented her worth as a leader in the eyes of the other Jormun - but that does not mean that your stories will part forever.

It's dangerous to go out.

[Gah, fine, timeout. Ichimatsu makes a noise of frustration and pockets his flare gun. It's just a kid... Ichimatsu can't get all pissed at him just because he's angry at his own total inability to be responsible.]
Look, my kitten got out. I'm gonna go look for her. It's gotta be past your bedtime, so just go to sleep or something.
no subject
But there's more important issue at hand than that.]
Your cat? [He hadn't seen any cats before. It's bad if one gets lost outside.] Are you sure it's there? I can help you look.
no subject
I dunno... I looked around and couldn't find her. It doesn't matter if she's loose in here, but if she went outside, then...
[He trails off for a moment, then snaps:]
I'm wasting time! Look, if you wanna get involved, then fine -- she's a calico kitten!
no subject
What is her name?
no subject
[Ichimatsu glances over again as he talks, and then he freezes upon the shift in light from the pendant. It seems like he's finally noticed Ritsuka's own feline features.]
... oi. What's on your head?
