[OOC] The Tales of Winding

[Kidd]

Sweet, thanks! I'll whip something up ASAP

[Kidd]

Alright. I think she is ready.

Kahya

Kahya Tarom | ♀ | 26

The Journey

Kahya is many things: a widow, a scholar, a warrior. Specifically, she's a cartographer from south of the southern desert, beyond the Petrified Wastes. The kingdom she comes from is a large and thriving one, fueled by the wide river it sits on. With food and resources aplenty for the citizens, the throne is able to invest in academics--only, there is only so much to teach. But there is a lot to discover. And so a team of scholars and warriors was put together in order to explore and document the world in the name of Kahndaq. Kahya was one of the members and one of the only to be trained in both combat and academics. Her husband was also selected for his prowess as a royal guard.

The group departed Kahndaq as seven. However, the Petrified Wastes proved hostile and difficult: all but Kahya perished, and she barely survived. With a broken wrist and limited supplies, she seeks hospitality in the Village of the Winding.

Kahya

Kahya is a confident and proud woman, but also gentle and kind. At her core, she's introverted and needs time alone; however, she's friendly and accommodating even when someone can't take the hint. She has a simple sense of humor and dirty jokes will still make her blush like a maiden. Although her journey has already suffered multiple hardships, she is also stubborn and intends to keep going. Besides, she's unsure she can currently return home in her state. The desert and the Petrified Wastes proved difficult enough for seven of them. Still, she refuses to let the loss of her friends and husband go to waste; she will contribute what she can to Kahndaq's growth.

@Kidd Very interesting -- and a great juxtaposition to the current personalities. Totally approved! As an aside, how long has she been in Winding at this point?

@Mokley

Thanks!

And I hadn't totally decided and I was going to ask for input, actually. I was thinking maybe a couple days at most, but I could also have her just arriving.

[Mokley]

@Kidd A day or two might have given her at least enough time to get acclimated and to know where to eat and sleep, for example, so she'll be able to notice when something's odd -- but then, if she's just arriving you could RP her first venture into the village.

It's entirely up to how you want to introduce her, really. :)

[Kidd]

Alright! I'll have her have been there for a couple days, then. I'll put up a post for her soon.

THE MESSAGE TREE
Situated in the middle of the woods is the Message Tree, a towering oak with a mismatched puzzle of a building situated amongst its boughs. With its shabby red roof and confusing architecture, it's a miracle it's managed to survive storm and time. It is here that letters and packages gets sent or delivered. Always on time, no matter it be rain or shine. Such is the way of the Tree, and the many couriers who dwell in it.

I hope this is alright for a location.

@Fubsy

That's awesome! Will post it up now. :D

[Hayazo]

Oh man, what a busy day for Nich!

[Illogical Jim]

I should have another post up within the next day or so.

[Mokley]

I have to say, all of the posts thus far are just delightful! I'm flailing with excitement over here, hahaha.

I may post this weekend to ensure everyone has something to investigate, respond to and interact with. ;) Carry on!

[Bubsy 2]

Hey everyone! So, I kinda disappeared for the last week-ish. My apologies, there was some stuff I needed to take care of but I should be able to post significantly more than not at all now. I'll catch up and then get a post up soon :)

And, uh, I said I'd be leaving this RP but I'm actually going back on that due to recent events :P I was a little weary to enter because of the drama and wasn't really up to having my posts super closely scrutinized but seeing that we've got different people now I think (I hope) it won't be as big of an issue.

[Hayazo]

@DiggertonGlad to have you back.

[Mokley]

@Diggerton Awesome to see you! Hope everything's ok.

Welcome back!!

[Hayazo]

Just wanna wait for @Illogical Jim to respond before I have Nich freak out about a cat in his shop...

[Bombardier]

Also waiting on the father's response to finding out about his shrine being on fire. I feel like if I write something up rn it'd simply be Anzo acknowledging the existence of da cat and running out the door.

[Mokley]

@Illogical Jim was last seen two weeks ago -- just checking in!

I'm beginning to consider that we might have lost the dear Father. In this case, what would you guys do?

[Hayazo]

Alright, I'll just assume he ran off to the church and react to the horrific beast sitting on my counter.

[Kidd]

Sorry that took so long. I was hoping someone else would post before me, but.. xD

[Hayazo]

And that is what happens when a cat sneaks into a rat's shop.
