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?]

[huffs his own sigh.]

Keep an eye out for feathers, if you can.

1/2

[voreaciously]

"Flashy" and feathers. Very well, I shall do so, Hazel-han.

[. . .]

2/2

[voreaciously]

You are not nobility or royalty in your own right are you?

Re: 2/2

[rottedwood]

Do I look like royalty to you?

[voreaciously]

I do not care to make assumptions at times, sir.

[rottedwood]

I have a title, but I earned it. Cut it out with the "sir" stuff, though.

[voreaciously]

Oh, what is it?

[rottedwood]

[waves a hand]

If I tell you that you're just gonna use it. I already told you my name.

[voreaciously]

Yes, I am aware you exercised a most basic courtesy.

[do you want her to applaud you.









sir.]

At any rate, if you earned it, what, pray tell, is the issue? You were not born to it, you proved yourself worthy on your merit. Why not divulge and collect your due?

[rottedwood]

'Cause I want you to call me by my name.

[voreaciously]

Well, if your title would preclude my using a name, I would be, but I have a feeling that I have been inadequate.

[rottedwood]

[just looks at her like ??????]

[voreaciously]

Do people call you "Lord Hazel"?

[rottedwood]

[...

yeah no he's just

walking away]

[voreaciously]

[THAT'S A YES ISN'T IT.

but she is just gonna walk after him.]

Yes, yes, as you like. I do not understand, but I have a question, if I may?

[unless he wants to keep going away then that's fine]

[rottedwood]

[SIGHS! AND! LOOKS AT HER!

what]

[voreaciously]

How oddly kind of you. Thank you. At any rate: does your appearance have anything to do with your namesake car being removed or is that incidental?

[rottedwood]

[oh. properly stopping for that.]

It's unrelated.

[voreaciously]

I see. Thank you.

[she curtsies, deeply, elegantly.]

I do apologise for being a nuisance. I shall leave you be, then.

[rottedwood]

[sighs and

pats her head]

[voreaciously]

Eh??

[Her voice is not loud, but she is surprised and her face is immediately pink.]

U-um? What is this for?

[rottedwood]

Keep your head up.

[and NOW he's gonna fuck off.]

[voreaciously]

[stares after him a little surprised.]
