September Adventure: Rain Comes

[lifeaftr_mods]

NEW ISLAND: NUIDAN

Who: Everyone!
What: Nuidan appears, and a new adventure begins
When: September 10th and onward
Where: Nuidan
Warnings: Tag as you go!

Reseed the Meadow So the Cows Don't Starve
As of September 10th, the mana pools on Ensō and its islets will now allow for travel to the new island of Nuidan.

Travelers will arrive on a mana pool situated on the E5 square. The temple is situated in an oasis-like backdrop of amber-colored sands circled with overhanging palm trees. From the island's center, the four corners of the island and its fixed seasonal shifts are more than obvious: to the north, the rainfall-soaked meadows of spring; to the east, the thick clusters of the trees of autumn; to the south, the snow-capped mountains of winter; and to the west, the warm summer sands and pleasant heat.

And inside the temple? The avatar of the island Nuidan is waiting.

I'm a fickle creature, I thought you knew that by now. [Another cheerful spin of the dagger, Ardyn's tone the usual light mockery.] But I see no reason to just turn and wander off, since I've already bothered to go this far.

[shatteredlenses]

Oh, but of course. How could I let such an important fact slip my mind?

[Goodness, put that dagger away before you put out someone's eyes, Ardyn.]

It's fortunate for me that you are so loathe to waste effort once something's started. Now, what exactly do I need to do to convince you to expend a little effort toward lighting a fire for me?

[scourgingstars]

My, is that how you ask for a favor? You could start by saying 'please'. Perhaps with a 'Your Majesty' or at least 'Your Highness' for good measure.

[shatteredlenses]

[Oh, is that how it's going to be? Well, two can play at that game. Ignis gets back to his feet and then bows, throwing out his arm in the most over-dramatic way possible. Why, if he had a hat in his hand, one might say he was copying a certain redhead with his gesture.]

If it pleases his majesty, his humble servant would like to request that he start a fire for him. Before he just lights the bloody thing himself.

[There is a 'please' and a 'his majesty' in there, but not, perhaps, in the way Ardyn was asking for them. Still, an effort was made.]

[scourgingstars]

. . . didn't think you'd actually do it.

[Ardyn mumbled that much under his breath, snapping his fingers to light a small fire.]

[shatteredlenses]

[Ardyn, are you blushing because you know, it would be quite the shame if Ignis missed seeing that...]

I've got to keep you on your toes now, don't I? Otherwise, in your fickleness, you might just get bored leave me behind.

[scourgingstars]

[not at all don't be ridiculous]

[can he even do that because if he could he might be]

I do suppose that's true enough. Can't have things get too repetitive, after all.

[shatteredlenses]

Indeed. What fun would there be in that?

[Ignis grins and whether or not Ardyn can blush becomes a moot point because as far as the advisor is concerned, he most certainly is.]

I was planning on having you and Prompto bring me most of the meat we need for curing, but our new host has told me there is some I can start with stored in the temple. Will you be spending some time speaking with them to see if you can figure out their angle in the meantime?

[scourgingstars]

I might allow myself to be convinced to do as much.

[shatteredlenses]

Oh, will you now?

[Ignis turns an amused look in Ardyn's direction.]

And what will his majesty need to be convinced?

[scourgingstars]

Oh, I do think you've just said the magic words.

[shatteredlenses]

Have I already?

[Ignis tries to sound disappointed, but ends up sounding amused instead.]

And here I was looking forward to getting creative in order to convince you.
