Today is the 5th day of the The Beginning of the Season of Great Heat in the 137th Year Since the Wall Fell.
Growing whispers of curses are being traded in the market square, saying that a princess has been cursed to fall into an enchanted sleep and is waiting in the castle for a prince to kiss her into wakefulness. She's been there for days, now, such a scandal! Surely one of you heroes can spare some time from your oh so busy schedule to get your sorry butts up there to kiss her already! Tsk tsk! Any prince will find themselves all but pushed towards the castle to bring their true love to wake the poor spell bound princess~
A similar curse has been laid upon the Foundling Prince who lies asleep in the castle dungeon. His curse is spoken of in much quieter whispers, especially by the young maidens of the town who mourn and fret over his fate. Driven by the loss of his brother, spurned by his love who left for the coastlands, can he truly be blamed for his weakness that led him to be corrupted by the darker forces in his heart? There's even been some growing jealousy over the Princess who the Foundling Prince trapped in his tower of ice, much to the eye rolling of the elderly in the town. Really, as if a tormented Prince would kidnap anyone less than a Princess in his hour of temptation! Those young girls should be trying to be the pure hearted maidens who redeem the fallen Prince! That was how they could become princesses, after all...
And speaking of princesses! With the departure of the Wicked Princess (or should it have been Queen? Though there hasn't been a Queen in years!) the sweet baking Princess has offered to take over the party instead. Though the venue is rather small... He can hardly fit half the town in that bakery, can he? Maybe the Totentanz mansion would be a better place? Why, with all the work they've done fixing that place up, it would be prefect, wouldn't it? (Prefect for seeing how they've fixed up the place and if you know who is still lurking in the hallways...) The townsfolk (who all want to be invited too!) will be pestering the poor Princess to change the venue. What better place to wait out the New Moon than a dance party in the lair of the heroes, after all? Certainly a nicer place than the Drunk Duck for fortifying oneself against the terrors of the New Moon...
For those newer heroes, any question about the New Moon will be answered with overblown stories of terror; the thorns that normally rise to seal in the darkness of the Forest fail when the moon's light does, loosing such horrors that cannot be described! Not that that will halt to attempts and stories of horrible monsters that escape from the Two Faced Forest to feast on any so foolish enough to step outside the safety of the city walls, men turning into monsters, monsters turning into men, both walking the streets of Schwanheim looking to terrorize the unaware and ravish young maidens! (or young men. Monsters aren't always picky.) Heroes should be on their guard, else the towns people will push them to the walls to protect the city so that the locals can safely get drunk and hide away from the dangers of the night.
Yet, it's not the Two Faced Forest that will be seeing action tonight... Not that anyone knows that yet, of course.... But there has been a lot of traffic out there lately. Between heroes and mysterious flames... something must be going on, right?
The weather is predicted to be sunny and warm. The only clouds visible are those of the Giant Kingdom, but those should clear up by late afternoon, leaving an utterly clear sky for night fall. Ah, if only the stars were bright enough to replace the moon's light....
[[OoC: This day will last from 10/28 til 11/4. (Calendar | Moon calendar )
Slightly different format, now with added links!
The feedback poll is still open! Your input is really helpful, especially with how small the game is, so please, if you haven't already, fill it out! Thanks!
Also, there will be a plot around the White Forest popping up later in the week happening during the night in game!
If you guys have things your characters has done that you want seen on the day change posts, please PM or pester on plurk! Remember you can have your character add their own posts and comments to the board using the Book Of Rumors! As always, poke the mod account if you have anything you want put on the calendar, and feel free to reply to this post ICly!]]
