[OOC] .::Legend of Zelda :: Whispers in the Night::.

[Dervish]

Who all is exactly at the Graveyard now? I need to be running off for most of the day, so I don't have a lot of time to be going back through the posts and would like to be able to respond appropriately when I get back. :D

Thanks in advance, best of friends!

[Baklava]

Magus in the back. Jira, Frore, Felicia, and Cain near the front.

[Captain Jenno]

Sorry, I've been working off of the assumption Veitaru, Archer and Zephyrus are entering now. Should I be posting again?

[Lugubrious]

Veitaru has veered off to continue finding people. Zephyrus and Archer can be arriving now, I suppose. If they arrive in time to catch Maryev before he presumably leaves, there's your post.

[Dervish]

Too late. Maryev has entered the build... yard. Wut.

[Captain Jenno]

Buggery. Alright, I'll post soon, then!

[The 42nd Gecko]

Anyone Veitaru still needs to round up?

[Baklava]

Kaiver, Elder Lyotus, Mila (I'll be puppeting her for the time being), Angus, Ekra, Nil, Cole if/when Kalamadea posts and Ketalia if/when Mercury posts.

[The 42nd Gecko]

Aren't Kaiver, Lyotus, and Mila already on their way? Kaiver was trying to have them track down the wolf rider, right?

[Baklava]

Right, but I don't recall him saying they were going to the graveyard. It's kind of unlikely they'd know to search Madame Astrid's place....

[The 42nd Gecko]

Hmmm... I suppose being the one with a vision perk means she's probably good at finding people, but it still feels weird to have Veitaru just find everyone, give them a "hey, listen! Go to the shadow temple."

[Lugubrious]

The whole running around and finding people thing is getting pretty old. If Lethe can talk to the people in their dreams, why can't she send them a message now? I know it's still kind of fishy, but at this rate we have so many characters that getting into the Shadow Temple is going to be a nightmare.

As gecko said, it is pretty much just two people finding everyone. That can be remedied, I guess, to speed up the search but my earlier point still stands.

[Baklava]

Lethe doesn't have that ability. Her voice isn't the one speaking to the characters in their dreams. Lethe is currently out finding the other people. She mentioned there would be more. I'll spoil it a little for you if it'll help ease your worries: The woman speaking to Nil is one of the others. She's also helping gather people at Lethe's request.

I had hoped Magus and Frore would help with the search in some way, but since that isn't the case it's a bit of a scramble right now. Jira ditching Felica so quickly was something I hadn't anticipated as well-- it would have been far easier for Cain to direct them both to the graveyard while they were in the same room. I'm banking on every player's tendency to have their characters meet up and interact with other player characters. Thus finding people individually would be less common. (Obviously that's not the case with Nil and, to an extent, Maryev--but that's totally fine.) Naklov, Kaiver, and Mila are all bunched together however. As are Ekra and Angus for the time being.

And don't worry too much about what's going to happen once everyone is at the shadow temple. I have something in store.

[GuySenpai]

If you want I could have Angus go and visit the graveyard and pay his respects at his parents's grave then notice the gathering by the shadow temple.

[Bright_Ops]

Magus has explained why he isn't out looking for people. And honestly Frore has enough things to worry about already without throwing 'Looking for people' on top of it.

[Baklava]

With Magus it mostly seems funny to me that he had no problem walking the streets freely beforehand-- even stopping to chat with Mila. He knew exactly who the girl was, where her stall was and had prior associations with her. Yet he sent Vei out to look for her-- which is kind of like finding a specific piece of hay in a haystack considering all the children wearing green and running around dressed like Kokiri. Do you not agree? I'm not arguing with the reasons he gave Lethe because I found them perfectly sensible, but as a person I found it a bit inconsistent and simply didn't anticipate his decision. That's all I'm saying.

As it is now, however, we should be nearing the end of the gathering anyway and Lethe will finally get her chance to properly explain herself to everyone.

GuySenpai, it's alright if you want Angus to visit the graveyard in order to speed things up.

[The 42nd Gecko]

You also didn't give Veitaru any directions, even though you had them available to you.

[Bright_Ops]

I swore I did give Veritaru directions. He at least told her were the potion shop she was looking for was. Twice.

[The 42nd Gecko]

Wow, I must have completely missed that.

[Bright_Ops]

...Going to tell you the truth. The reason Magus didn't go do it himself is because he dislikes crowds. He kind of stands out in them.
