EVENT: ORIGIN'S ORIGINS

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?]

Whether or not they were exchanged - I can scarcely claim to recall such myself, but you...

You're Breeze's elder brother.

[ ~~destrơ̂̒̅̇̔̈́͡y~~
no.

what was he thinking just now? ]

..... so you remember. [ this is definitely not a situation he wants to be in. ]

We were supposed to be redeemed.

We were.

At the very least I may claim such - I left that place some time ago.

[ ... he doesn't remember as much. there's a huge blank space between here and there. that's not exactly anything new. the better question is how did he ]

"Some time ago"?

... A year, perhaps...?

... you've been here for an entire year?

Ah - if it's a matter of this place, it's been perhaps a month, should memory serve me properly...

But I took my leave of the forest a year prior to this meeting, if redemption is among your concerns.

.... ha. I see. That's fitting, then.

[ but that still doesn't explain why he's here. ]

I take it you weren't the only one?

To my knowledge, one other -

[ a pause before she smiles, a bit awkward ]

... It's nice to see you again, a any rate.

Who [ --- what.

..... ]

Why? ... [ unless, ] Who else is here?

... Would you rather I be displeased...?

Ah, at any rate - a Marigold. 80H; I can't recall if you've made her acquaintance.

... the name rings a bell. [ is all he particularly feels like divulging on that. 80H... she was in his heart, but he wouldn't be aware of that. still. it's familiar. oddly familiar, like Elaine herself, in a way that twists his stomach. ]

We weren't exactly friends.

Of course.

[ just a soft, short assent; she might as well have just nodded her head. like. yeah that checks out ]

Such is what I've gathered, at any rate. Ah, though - it does bear noting, I suppose - should such circumstances be of any interest to you - that she appears to be from some time prior to our judgement. Though it has been perhaps a year for my own self, before her arrival in this place she found herself in the forest still.

... ahh. [ also a short sound of acknowledgement. as he rolls that over in his head. ]

Then we must be the same. I don't remember ever being brought to "Judgement". [ and even if he was... likely he'd have been sent back into the spill. ]

I see.

If there is anything that you would like to know, in that case, do be certain to inform me. Finite though my knowledge may be, and dulled by time besides, should you find yourself in need of something - I will put forth my best efforts to see you well.

[ ...wwhhhhy.

... ]

I only have one question. Do you remember everyone who was judged fit for rebirth?

Edited 2019-07-05 07:05 (UTC)

Ah, that was...

[ well ]

... It was everyone. As I saw prior to leaving, only those that chose to remain did so.

... I see.

[ then most likely, they... she... ]

... ... thank you.

[ s. smiles, a little awkward, kind of. tired. honestly ]

... Of course. You're quite welcome...

... What name should I call you by?

[ they both need a nap. ]

It's Midnight. [ still. perhaps he should have discarded it for a new name, but... somehow... he can't bring himself to. ]

The girl who was with me --- [ ... ]

My current team, is "Morning" and "Noon". So it seemed fitting.

... I see. So you chose to keep it... Yes, I'll take that into consideration moving forward -

[ her hand rises to cover her mouth a bit, stifling a fond smile. even if he isn't someone she knows terribly well, being someone close to someone she did care a lot about is enough to relax her all on its own.

such sentiment! ]

[ ...... why does he get the feeling she's laughing at him ]

... don't attribute any meaning to it. It's convenient, and I was made to name my teammates. [ there was no one else there to do it. it was awful. ]
