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! |

Have you learned much? If not, I could teach you. It's important that you know how to protect yourself if no one is there to protect you.
[And in her mind, that person is a YoRHa android. That's what she was built to do, after all. From beside her, she lifts her own sword up onto her lap to show Natsuki.]
no subject
W-well, I ... kind of ...
[ That's a no. ]
no subject
Alright.
[2B doesn't think much of it and sets her sword back down beside her, careful not to slice open any of the pillows like she did at the bunker.]
As long as you can protect yourself. I'm not sure how many more times that spider is going to come back.
[Considering she has killed it more than once and it still somehow found its way to the marketplace after that.]
no subject
Probably about as many times as those stupid zombie ... skeleton ... things.
no subject
[For one, it's a word that 2B has never heard before, and second... every time those skeleton things have appeared, she's been sitting in this exact spot, closing herself off from the rest of the world. She's heard rumblings of what's been going on outside, but didn't think much of it to really care.]
no subject
They're like, dead people but not dead. They still move but they just groan and wander around weirdly. I guess ... someone is controlling them.
no subject
She wonders, though, if zombies bear any similarities to the Machines that roam the Earth...]
Sort of like Machines... [she begins, her head tilting.] A lot of them don't have thoughts or feelings, and they wander around without much purpose, other than to destroy. Why not just destroy the zombies?
no subject
[ She shudders a little thinking about them. ]
I don't really want to look at them anymore. They're disgusting.
no subject
There isn't much room next to 2B, but she pats the spot anyway.]
Then you should stay here, out of danger. [And so Natsuki doesn't have to look at them anymore! It's a win-win!] People are saying that the food is good.
no subject
[ Well, that is nice of her to offer, but ... she's not sure she feels good about just staying here while everyone else works hard on solving this mystery.
... Still, some food sounds good ... and the grumbling sound that comes from her stomach seems to agree. ]
...!
no subject
What was that!? Are you alright?
[!!!!! As if Natsuki is choking or something... DON'T DIE ON HER]
no subject
It's just my stomach ... was it that loud?
no subject
[Probably not, but 2B has never had the opportunity to experience a rumbly tummy before today. Not like an android is going to get the grumbles – they don't even need to eat food, and the one time she did, it ended horribly.]
Do you need to get that checked? I'm not sure how well Pod will do, but it could be helpful.
[2B....... just get the girl some food...........]
no subject
[ Her face is so red right now. ]
N-no, it's just ... I'm just hungry? I'm not sick or anything ...
no subject
[It's more breathed out in a relieved sigh than anything else, because boy, is that some of the best news she's heard all day. Not that she's glad that Natsuki is hungry enough that her stomach is making strange noises at her, but that nothing is wrong.
2B reaches around into her bag beside her and pulls out a handful of coins to offer Natsuki.]
I hope this is enough for you to get some food. It doesn't sound like we'll be done here in Thay just yet.
