EVENT: ORIGIN'S ORIGINS

[fairwind]

Who: explorers!
When: Day 31, night
Where: The Jungle

[The sun has gone down when the heroes receive an unmarked message:

This Star has secrets you should know. If you want to find them, follow the light.

Should they look outside, they will in fact see a light -- a thin but bright pillar rising from the overgrown town out in the jungle.

It's still raining, still covered in frogs, but there's definitely something going on.

And in the direction of the beach, there's also a faint, bell-like ringing. But that's not what's calling you right now... is it?]

[awakenerd]

Oh, hey Naeva.

[desirestruth]

Rean, what happened.

[WHY ARE YOU GLASS AND WHY ARE YOU OKAY WITH IT?]

[awakenerd]

[It hurts like hell actually. ]

I can't tell you about anyone else but Rufus and I got eaten.

[desirestruth]

And you're just...calm, about this?

[Okay fuck you she can't cure status but she can at least apply some healing magic.

She's debating forcing his blood to stuff itself back in his body and stay put, but she's not sure how he'd react to that.]

[awakenerd]

[He's not bleeding much, Rufus already cast a heal.]

I don't see the point in getting too worked up, no one's in immediate danger.

[desirestruth]

[Yes but this makes her feel better. And her magic can soothe the pain, at least.]

You are a deeply concerning individual, Mr. Schwarzer.

[awakenerd]

...? Sorry.

That feels better, thanks.

[desirestruth]

[She just sort of waves a hand at the apology. Not really the place to keep gekkering at him right now...]

I can't really do much about the glass, unfortunately. This sort of ailment...doesn't occur in my own world, so we haven't the techniques to cure them.

[awakenerd]

It's a little like petrification? But not quite.

[desirestruth]

Gorgons don't turn people to glass...and the petrification is more complete.

[She does seem to be considering this.] An alchemical solution might be useable with study, but I have not regained that set of skills, and I can't ask you to remain in this state for that long.
