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?]

...Alright.

[She takes Elaine's hand and lifts it in a courtly gesture...but instead of kissing the hand, she pulls the arm closer, sinking her fangs immediately and hungrily into the veins of the wrist.

The pain stops immediately, as always, but the amount Naeva's draining, and how fast is...much greater. Surely this won't have any consequences?]

[ I mean like, obviously it's fine.

As before she regards the gesture impassively, with no startle at being grabbed or at the sight of the bite - but it's nevertheless more blood than she's used to giving up, more than she's used to losing since returning to life. her brow furrows some as it progresses, the sigh that leaves her in exchange for the creeping exhaustion leaching into her body heavy enough to shake her shoulders.

the blood is as naeva recalls it. the richness and depth of a life infused with a shock of the divine, great and ancient and writhing, cultivated slowly over the generations. ]

[This is...different. There is a forming awareness--a sudden sense of being aware of someone's presence, thoughts, feelings on a inherent level. Something that's born in the blood. SOmething that lives in the skin. A sixth sense...

The blood is more potent than she remembered. Maybe because she's taken more. But she does pull away with a bit of a shock, eyes gleaming so brilliantly Yellow one might be forgiven for thinking of a different god. She stares into space a little, struck by unseen images, struck by the ancient power in her veins.

She is refreshed, but it makes her feel...

Not even the Black Forest. Not even the Throne. Nothing has made her feel such jubilation and nausea at the same time?

How odd.]

[ there's a moment or so of pause. even at his weakest her brother was never the blood drinking type. this isn't the first time the two of them have done this, but she hasn't quite managed to figure out how to proceed. here, in this place, tired as she is, moreso now,

more than she'd anticipated, really, ]

... Are you well...?

[ yea ]
