Endgame: Discussion

[lifeaftr_mods]

ENDGAME: DISCUSSION

Who: The gods...and you
What: The gods have a discussion with themselves, each other, and all you adventurers
When: May 3rd to May 17th
Where: Primarily Ensō
Warnings: Please mark anything as it comes up!

Keep Me In Your Clouded Mind

So, by now you're probably aware that things have shifted massively in the past few days. The Historian has arrived on LifeAftr's shores to spill a few mountains' worth of beans, and now all of you are stuck having to deal with it. But that doesn't mean that you're going to need to make this discussion alone.

The fate of LifeAftr - and the fate of all of you - is now in your hands. And while all of you decide what you will about how you plan to deal with that, the gods are busy having a long overdue familial argument. Consider this log a catch-all for you to discuss the fate of LifeAftr among yourselves, react to the various revelations, ask the gods questions, or just sit and eat some popcorn while they argue amongst themselves.

Remember - you have until May 10th to come up with any solutions that other player characters can vote on.

So think long and hard about where you want things to end up.

But Now the Stars Have spoken

Of course, you are always free to create your own individual logs and posts as needed. You may also use this log for characters to discuss and react to things with each other and argue amongst themselves; consider it a catch-all for IC endgame discussion.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them over on the Questions header on our Endgame Rundown post! If you come up with a solution that enough player characters agree can be voted upon and that is feasible for endgame, be sure to drop it on the Voting header on our Endgame Rundown post once voting opens!

[ Jyushimatsu feels like he's going overdrive, his body trembling whole with unnecessary energy he has no outlet to dump on. If Ichimatsu and their wobbledog weren't with him, he might as well get all his frustration out and cause some trouble, but fortunately he's partly quelled by his older brother's presence. He's not really happy about things getting out of control, though - he hates not being able to do much of anything.

He can't bring himself to smile completely when he approaches the Storyteller, and he doesn't even know what to tell them either. His attachment to the creature is not as great as some other people here. But still... they seem more troubled than he is. He can talk a bit with them, though the subject matter is nothing like dog-shaped paper dolls. ]

So, uh... I'm stupid, so correct me if I'm wrong, but this thing about loops... does it mean we've been doing the same things over and over again and we remember none of it everytime you hit reset?

[story_teller]

In a sense.

[All they can do is offer what few answers they have.]

I remember...very little. That is why I have this book here. [The old tome they've always carried along with them, which lies on the ground now, at their feet.] Each page is a recurrence I recorded.

Much of it makes very little sense to me.

[yakyuuman]

[ That's not too encouraging to hear, but Jyushimatsu picks up the tome regardless. ]

Well, if that makes you feel better, not much of my life before coming here made sense either!

[ He crouches down to a seating and opens the tome to a random page, curiosity distracting him from the myriads of other feelings afflicting him. ]

Maybe you wrote something about me or my brothers without knowing...

[story_teller]

[The pages are blank, seemingly. It appears that whatever lies on them can only be discerned by the Storyteller's eyes.]

I suspect I have. In not every iteration did I...bother to learn all your names. [There's that guilt again. For what little it is worth.]
