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.

Your best? Your best is the important thing! The most vital thing. The most integral part of your soul and yourself is that you try, you see?

[The dog scrambles closer, tail wagging furiously. It's equal parts apparent delight and adrenaline-swollen anxiety, that ever-present song of just how much there is to be done.]

Everything. Everything. The fences are in desperate need of repair, and the sugarcane hasn't been touched in who can even saw how long, and I know I saw a wild herd or two getting out of their pastures, and...what place doesn't need help?

[rosehecate]

[Will he accept pets? Harv seems like he needs at least a moment of pets, but Anthy won't just reach out and pet him. That'd be a little insulting, probably.]

My, that does sound like a lot. And no one else is here to do any of it?

[She does seem interested at the mention of herds, though - repairing a fence would be a hopeless endeavor, and sugarcane? Well, she's willing to give that a try. But animals? Animals are something Anthy has always known.]

It's a shame no one's been able to come until now, but...I promise to do what I can.

[thankgods]

I am but one god, and I can only do so much. It's a relief so many of you are here to help.

[They're just kind of assuming that's why everyone's here. Here to help, obviously. Why else would they be arriving?]

All that you can do is all that I ask! Your best need not be perfect, but as long as it is your best it is more than enough. Beyond enough! Just enough?

Yes, I should think so.

[rosehecate]

[Oh, he is really very sweet. Anthy's smile feels more genuine with every moment.]

Then that is what I shall do. In the meantime, may I ask your name?

[thankgods]

You may. You have. You just did. Did no one introduce me? Seems like an oversight.

[Yet, they don't seem terribly bothered. Too distracted to be bothered!]

"Harv" will be just fine.

[rosehecate]

[Harv is a good name. She will remember it.]

Even if they had, it's only polite to ask. My name is Anthy.

[thankgods]

Are we introduced? Are we situated? Will that suffice?

[They have to get back to work, plainly. Just terribly, terribly busy!]

[rosehecate]

Yes, I believe so!

[You can go do the things, she won't keep you any longer.]

[thankgods]

Very good. Find something to do, won't you? There's no shortage of that here!

[They don't seem to very much care that this could easily be construed as rude - they're just too gosh darn busy for that.]

[rosehecate]

[It takes a lot more than an attitude like that to offend Anthy, and besides, it's not like she hasn't dealt out similar statements in her life.]

Sure! I will do just that.
