Field Mission 6: A Day in Thay, Part 1
![]()
![]() ![]() Ready or not, rested or not, it's time to get moving, Reclaimers. You've got a very, very long day ahead of you. And another one. And another one. And, you get the joke. Early Friday morning, with the Director there to see them off, the Reclaimers load up into the Bureau's transportation orbs for the sixth time since this whole ordeal began, and make their way to about a mile or two outside of Thay. It's important to try to stick to the story, at least — that you're all visitors from a faraway school, here to spend some time with the students and faculty of Boarbumps. As much as Lucretia would have liked to join you, she can't. None of the other leading members of the Bureau of Balance can. Whoever enters Thay, after all, is entering a bubble, after all. A time trap. Nobody will be able to leave until the Relic, the Lamp of Undoing, is either retrieved or destroyed. Someone needs to be able to continue if you all can't. 1. SEVEN O'CLOCK ALREADYAs we noted in the OOC post, prompts on this log will be a quick few sentences of specific things happening during each hour. It's expected that Reclaimers will be seeing all of these events multiple times! So feel free to play with them as you see fit. If you're not sure if something you want to do would warrant a roll, please ask us in the RNG thread. ![]() ○ The Reclaimers have arrived in Thay, much to the curiosity of the highly intelligent, occasionally highly ... suspicious ... residents. Nevertheless, they recognize you as visiting, esteemed students, and, though perhaps still suspicious, welcome you into their fold. Also, as a note: Every time the relic is used, time is reset to this moment. ![]() ○ Afternoon classes at Boarbumps begin, starting with a lecture on the magical circuits of the common toad. If you happen to sit in on this one, as a visitor from another school, you may be asked to assist in the dissection. You will be heckled by the rest of the class as deemed fit. ![]() ○ The second afternoon class at Boarbumps begins. Are you three or four time loops in and in desperate need of a nap? This class, The History of Boarbumps, is for you. You will be treated to a long and droning lecture about how the students attending during Boarbumps' very first semester banded together to stop a particularly plucky troll. Which you'd think would be an interesting tale. It is not. ![]() ○ The third and final afternoon class at Boarbumps — Fighting with Fire — begins. The professor, known to be slightly more unorthodox in her teaching methods, will recruit any Reclaimer who happens to be there to defend themselves from the students' incoming fireball spells. The potency of the fireballs themselves range from the tickle of a candle, to that one time you ate a ghost pepper, to one particularly fiery spell that might actually hurt you. ![]() ○ There's a slight catastrophe over in the Town Square. That is to say, a giant spider seems to have escaped from Boarbumps and is terrorizing the vendors, to everyone's surprise. Subdue or dispatch it, it's up to you. ![]() ○ Cleanup of whatever damage the spider did is underway. In the meantime, the faculty of Boarbumps and the Hermetic Order of Red Wizards invite the Reclaimers to a small dinner in one of the public meeting rooms at the Red Keep. Every member of the Red Wizards are present, aside from Onerion Wyvernspur and Brian Darling. ![]() ○ No matter where you are in Thay, you'll feel the ground rumble underneath your feet. The residents largely pass it off as an earthquake, but will note that they have become much more frequent lately. ![]() ○ With a sudden loud roar, the ground of the town square suddenly begins to split. People, shops, and everything else begin to drop into the chasm, despite the Red Wizards, and everyone else's, attempts to save them. 2. OOC: A SPECIAL SHOUTOUTYou are welcome to keep track of how your character experiences these time loops as much or as little as you're comfortable with — we'll also be tracking what you all are doing! Our Minato player Kel came up with some extremely snazzy coding if you would like to track how each loop plays out for your character more closely. Thank you, Kel! Of course, this is completely optional. Keep up with as much as you'd like, have fun as you see fit, and we hope you enjoy this mission! |
closed to monika
[She’s honestly so glad to be able to see Monika at The Sleepy Willow near the fireplace after a very long day. Looped or not. It was so strange riding down to this place without Monika with them and she’d been fidgeting the whole time and wondering how Monika was doing. For Natsuki’s sake, she didn’t make too much of a fuss on the ride down but it’s still on her mind...]
Monika, there you are.
[Yuri comes up to the other girl. The fire is warm and cozy and after being on her feet all day it’s nice to be able to find a place to sit and rest and talk with her friend. They have some catching up to do, don’t they?]
It’s been a long day...
no subject
Hey Yuri. How's your mission going so far?
[ The fire does feel pretty nice actually... ]
no subject
She scoots a bit closer to the warm fireplace for the warm and to make some more room for Monika. Yuri's familiar, a tiny purple and black butterfly, flutters up into the air before landing gently in Yuri's hair.]
It's troublesome. [She sighs.] But you look worn out. Was it worse the second time around? I know going through books in the library was twice the pain.
no subject
[ She reaches into her pocket and holds out a toothbrush to Yuri. ]
A gift from 2B.
no subject
Um. Why is 2B giving us toothbrushes?
no subject
[ She shrugs with a small smile. ]
I promised to give some out too. Maybe thank her if you have the chance. I think it'll make her pretty happy.
no subject
I'll do that when I see her again, then. I met her while she was trying to teach herself how to fish. She really wants to do her best here doesn't she...
no subject
[ Still... ]
We need to work hard too. These time loops... they need to stop...
no subject
[She sighs softly.]
I've never felt anything like this before. The time looping is really exhausting... I've stopped going to repeat classes. But I ... I did take this from the library?
[She pulls out her stolen book on two types of dragons. The book looks old and heavy, bound with leather. It has a crest of two battling dragons on the front.]
no subject
It's... a lot. I was excited about the classes on the first loop honestly, but I'm doing about the same now. Just trying to find a way to be useful and make this stop.
[ An eyebrow raises as she glances over at the book. ]
Can I take a look at that?
no subject
[She gives a quiet nod and passes the book over. It doesn't have any magic cast on it now but it did. The remanents of that might be detectable. Other than that it's a normal book talking about different types of dragons and how they oppose each other.]
no subject
[ Wow haha wouldn't that be awful?
ANYWAY Monika picks up the book and flips through it quietly. ]
Huh... it still feels unreal to be in a world like this. Like I know we have magic and all but dragons? Crazy.
no subject
[She seems a little interested, though. Like she likes that.]
Honestly, I'm wondering if I could conjure a dragon of my own with a book like that. Seems unlikely, doesn't it.
no subject
You never know! Maybe with some practice you might be able to. Well... a lot of practice actually!
no subject
A baby dragon at first, then.
