Quiet Like The Snow
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. Though not all the shadowy beings have gone from the world, the reappearance of the sun is enough to make them slink off into the shadows- a fight for another day...or another evening.
Now, it's time for the hardest part. Now, it’s time to clean up.

Chol
The grounds of Chol have reshaped seemingly overnight- as the morning light filters down across the land, characters will find most of the land has been blackened and charred, with many fires still raging inland. The Jormun will assist anyone who hasn’t yet to the western coast of the island; where not nearly as much of the phoenix’s impact has been felt, and a safe corridor of passage to the mana pool resides.
The shores of Chol are littered with corpses, both shadowy and scaled, along with an even smattering of crumpled paper and splotched inkstains. Despite the triumph of the fight, it did not come without its costs. The Jormun gather their dead and prepare to mourn them quietly. Those who perished in the fight will not see the sunrise from this unique perspective, watching the murk of the night tint to soft, milky yellow and pink, and then to a glorious new day.
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.

Ensō and Monsun
Ensō too, has seen its far share of battle. The full scale of just how much the Storyteller had kept at bay around the temple is revealed through the copious piles of shadowed corpses, several wane Jormun already at work on removing them. They assure anyone who seeks to assist that below the ocean, there is effective manners of disposal; such as large, active volcanoes to demolish the flesh before any untoward magics can give them new life.
Heat will slowly begin to return to the island, with slow coming to a halt and ice beginning to thaw. Whilst rugging up is still a requirement, characters will be capable of making their way back to the mostly unscathed islets to rebuild their own lives, or wherever else they may call home.
A notable change to Ensō, however, is as easy to find as looking up. Literally. Several floating land masses can now be seen high above the island itself- too far for anything distinguishable to be made out and too far for those capable of flight to reach. Those who watch these masses may be interested in how, over the course of a day, these strange masses seem to change shape entirely- almost as if they were simply a very unique cloud coverage that seemed ready to become a permanent fixture overhead.

Additionally....
Though the Storyteller is once again nowhere to be found, exhausted adventurers will find three MREs in their packs, for anyone who could use a day off finding and preparing food. Currently, it's the best they can offer- though the Jormun promise that they will have their own spread to share after finishing collecting their dead.
Event Specifics
[ ♆ ] The 30th will see the return of any who may have died throughout the duration of the event. All revived characters will awaken at the Storyteller’s temple; remember, if your character has died, let us know here!
[ ♆ ] Item trades with the Jormun can be found on the OOC plotting post here! The number of Jormun available will dwindle through the following weeks, leaving entirely on the 10th of February. Even if you were only recently accepted, you are free to participate!

A little too much, in fact. More than he has any right to. It wasn't a consensual, earnest attempt to understand them; it came like a bolt of lightning, searing away the barriers they both threw up by default, imbuing a sense of connection and resonance that neither of them wanted and neither of them needed.
The most he can do now is try and make up for that - and use it well.
"What about Ren? She's...you guys're looking after her, right?" She lives with them and everything. Hopefully she just stuck to the temple for the duration of the perpetual night, but it pays to make sure.

"Oh yeah, she's fine. Did you see her doodles? She covered the whole dang temple with 'em, it's like the Neverwinter Met in there." And you better believe Lup sounds real damn proud of it. "She stuck to the temple all week, like, she's good at staying safe. She... I think she must've been scared as hell, but she didn't complain or anything, just kept drawing and looking out for folks." Looking out for Lup, too, when she was hurting and miserable, cheered her up for real like only Ren could.

"...good," he breathes out, soft with relief. "Good. There was a lotta bad shit out there, and she - good. She and the other kids should've been safe."
The other kids. But were they safe, any of them? Fuck if he knows. He still doesn't know what he might've done while he was out of it. Who else he might've hurt.
no subject
"So what bad shit went to town on you, specifically?" That's how you commiserate, right? And there's more of that weird worry, like she should've been there to stop him getting hurt quite so badly.
no subject
But no one needs to know that. Not unless they've figured it out for themselves.

He’s absolutely selling himself short, but being a lowkey arsonist isn’t something he’s in the habit of broadcasting.
