@everyone;

[lapofluxury]

Who: everyone!
When: day 10, afternoon (backdated)
Where: group chat!

(ooc: feel free to threadjack)

so since we're apparently soooo bad at this stuff i feel like we should talk about what the prince said or whatev so we're all on the same page
i'll start:
we wont win the war by killing Malice, we gotta "love each other, and face the darkness with our own light"
also, as long as we keep hold of our bonds, thanks to our connection to the Aurora, Malice can't corrupt us and we can't be lost to the darkness
the prince on the other hand cant help protect us from the trials
thx bud

Felix 🐱: uh he said that he's a runaway and that his friends are somewhere else
Felix 🐱: they used a magical computer to bring us here
Felix 🐱: the computer is the thing that chose us based on our attributes
Felix 🐱: he's not strong enough to stop the trials
Felix 🐱: something about how we're special to him
Felix 🐱: oh and we're on teams because they encourage bonds
Felix 🐱: positive emotions are the strongest defense against the negative ones the malice feeds on

Jusis: The monsters we fight once used to be people.
Jusis: Due to the spread of malice and corruption of these "prisms" on the worlds the lifeforms have been corrupted but can be purified and cleansed to regain their previous forms.
Jusis: Should we ourselves fall our souls can be retrieved and our bodies reconstructed but it's no more reliable than the faulty way we were brought here before.
Jusis: Those missing memories or abilities or even time are products of incomplete--whatever it is that they do to bring us from the darkness I suppose.

Eliza: Monitors placed underground allowed for an analysis of the vines. Those monitors will also soon support Chain function underground.
Eliza: There is a large cave (sealed from this side) that reaches towards the beacg.
Eliza: There are ~100 known Stars, but purifying just 10 of them might be enough.

[strelizia]

no: his face is UGLY

[purrtagonist]

purrsona: Huh.
purrsona: Deja vu. . .

[WHAT DOES THAT MEAN, AKIRA]

[nihilmancy]

Hlasoh:He once had a kingdom of his own, though it wasn't much larger than this island is now. It hasn't been completely destroyed, but it has been reduced to only the castle and some staff.
Hlasoh: Apparently it is the role of his family to watch over the Prisms.
Hlasoh: How ironic that he would have us fight negative emotions and yet he is himself extraordinarily irritating.

[ewestmarch]

E: He cant bring anyone else back.

[lapofluxury]

Aria: oh so we actually were chosen for a reason?? interesting

[lapofluxury]

Aria: they were PEOPLE???
Aria: no wonder he was saying that we shouldnt kill them

[lapofluxury]

Aria: maybe we should try blasting it open :Ia

[lapofluxury]

Aria: thank u for the important contribution

[lapofluxury]

Aria: yea it feels like a fuckin video game or smth doesnt it

[lapofluxury]

Aria: waking us up at ass in the morning.... smh

[lapofluxury]

Aria: i guess there's still hope they'll be fine when we fix the prisms??

[ewestmarch]

E: He said they'd be there. He'd better be right.

[lapofluxury]

Aria: i dont know how much we can or cant trust him yet

[malignstar]

Felix 🐱: according to cardy
Felix 🐱: uh, cardamom

[lapofluxury]

Aria: wow you guys are on nickname basis huh

[malignstar]

Felix 🐱: cardamom is too weird
Felix 🐱: he said cardy's fine
Felix 🐱: he seems like a cardy
Felix 🐱: must be hard for him to handle all of this
Felix 🐱: he's pretty excitable

[ewestmarch]

E: He healed one of the evil plants back to being normal and uncorrupted by talking to it, but I know people who can do that at home, too.
E: I used to know people, I guess.

[bowtiedbones]

Eliza: It could be worthwhile, but probably something to wait until after Chains work underground.

[purrtagonist]

[it feels more like REAL LIFE actually but like. . .]

purrsona: I call the role of the childhood rival who challenges the protagonist to fights at the worst possible times.

[strelizia]

you are welcome!!!

[ewestmarch]

E: Wait, he told me that it was basically random that we were chosen.

[ewestmarch]

E: Sometimes in that state death is better.

[thank u sister mary sunshine]

[malignstar]

Felix 🐱: he said the computer could tell we had powerful souls
Felix 🐱: something about shining brightly before we were awakened
Felix 🐱: he said they used an algorithm to look for people
Felix 🐱: heroes, i guess

[ewestmarch]

E: Not me. He got the wrong person.

[malignstar]

Felix 🐱: you don't think your soul is powerful?
Felix 🐱: why put yourself down?

[ewestmarch]

E: I'm just not a hero. I know what heroes are like, my world had plenty. Everything I ever did I did for myself.

[malignstar]

Felix 🐱: maybe heroes here are different
Felix 🐱: i don't know if any of us are what i'd usually think of when i think hero
Felix 🐱: i don't know enough about myself to know if i even fit the bill
Felix 🐱: i wouldn't worry too much about terminology

[ewestmarch]

E: I just know who he should have taken instead. That's all.

[malignstar]

Felix 🐱: a friend of yours?
Felix 🐱: i'm guessing this means you remember everything

[ewestmarch]

E: Yes. I know that's rare around here. I lost all the memory of learning my magic, though. Twenty years of education shot.

[malignstar]

Felix 🐱: sounds like you in eliza are in the same boat
Felix 🐱: almost makes losing memories sound like a cakewalk
Felix 🐱: though having skills and not knowing what they do or how to activate them is also balls

[ewestmarch]

E: I'm sure someone around here has both, some how. What do you think you did, before?

[malignstar]

Felix 🐱: no clue
Felix 🐱: i've got wings
Felix 🐱: and uh, blood magic

[ewestmarch]

[....San'layn?]

E: Do you have a pulse?

[malignstar]

Felix 🐱: last i checked
Felix 🐱: is that something that usually doesn't come with wings?

[ewestmarch]

E: Wings and blood magic usually mean something vampiric. But that's just my world.

[malignstar]

Felix 🐱: can't say i've felt the need to chomp into any maiden throats lately
Felix 🐱: least not in that way ^_~
Felix 🐱: so whatever these are, i don't think they're related to vampires

[ewestmarch]

E: Good to hear for everyone's sake.

[malignstar]

Felix 🐱: i like to think so
Felix 🐱: being a vampire sounds inconvenient in a place where every trial involves spilling blood
