[NASTRANDIR] - STEADY HEARTBEATS LEAD ME

Who: Everyone!
What: A new friend makes themself available for questions, propositions, discussions...and answers
When: October 4th, and throughout the rest of the month
Where: Nastrandir
Warnings: Nothing of note!

For the second time in as many months, the waters about Ensō rise, though not nearly as much as they did in the month prior.

This time, the water's intent does not appear to be outright submersion, but rather seeking - small strands of water separate from the larger pools and wind their way across the island's surface until they've found what it is they seek. Namely, you. Someone to talk to.

Throughout the day, each islander is certain to spot the water behaving in this strange manner at least once, snaking its way towards them before curving and splitting into much more recognizable forms on the dirt below them.

It's forming words.

You seek many things. So do I. You can answer some of what I seek. I can answer some of what you question.

Beside the mana pool of Nastrandir. All are welcome.

Waiting for you in the once shallow recesses of the swamps, the great water dragon that battled alongside others in defense of Nastrandir is...smaller, having shed some of its bulk to make conversing more simple. Move as close as you'd like - or stay as far away as you're able. They don't mind. The Water's patience is unending, and this conversation will begin with you.

No matter how long it might take.

For the more cautious of characters, the Water will remain passive regardless of how long one needs to stake them out, only retaliating against attempts to attack them. Otherwise, the great creature remains in the water, looking only to those who step close to the waterline, and failing to do more until indicated that such actions are desired of it.

So speak up, friend, and let your intent be known. For there's much to discuss - and for you, only mortal amounts of time to do so.

This NPC will be available to interact with for the remainder of the month; characters do not have to approach them on the precise day to have a discussion!

Do you like to hear stories too? Does that make you strong?

[Not that she's fully committed to giving the ocean any kind of power, but it's weird. This whole situation is spooky and bizarre.]

Consider how much water is present in these lands.

[You are on an island. You are on one island of many. And in every direction, as far as the eye can perceive - water. It stretches on and on for so very long, seemingly infinite.]

Are you aware, always, of tiny creatures the size of an atom scuttling across your skin? You are so small to one such as I that locating you was a difficulty in and of itself.

This calamity called me back to familiar ground. But they are all familiar, in so many ways.


[A faint, sibilant hiss.]

I have no interest in the fiction of this or any other world.

[Okay, I mean, that... that does track. Kravitz certainly can't poke any holes in it without a lot more research he doesn't have, so he decides to focus on something else instead.]

The fiction, you say-- we've heard that term quite a bit. Does this mean you have no concern with history? Or simply stories that are untrue? The Storyteller accepts and encourages factual reports, after all.
