WHO: anyone
WHERE: anywhere
WHEN: Day 9, morning through to late afternoon

[well there's still new landmarks to explore, new teammates (and new ragged individuals) to meet. occasional gunfire's been resounding through the woods sometimes, scaring birds up into the air and sending wandering pygmidillos in the meadow askitter.

what are you up to this fine day?]

[subtle bringing her hands up to hide view of her collar]

No, I just heard about it. I'm really super sorry.

Anyway, why don't I go get help?

[she is not going to go get help.]

[heavyliesthecrown]

I... I never said that I was stuck.

. . . But if you were to fetch someone here I would not protest.

[debug_mode]

Okay! Leave it to me! I'll be back in two shakes of a lamb's tail!

[heavyliesthecrown]

Please be careful.

[debug_mode]

Oh, sorry! What was your name again?

It'd be kinda strange if I showed up saying "person 'undefined'" gave me permission to come visit.

[heavyliesthecrown]

Crescendo is what I have chosen for myself since my arrival. And what, fair maiden, should I call you by?

[debug_mode]

Aha... this is awkward.

For the time being, would you call me your name?

[heavyliesthecrown]

You wish to be called Crescendo...?

[debug_mode]

Is that your name?

[heavyliesthecrown]

It isn't my true name from home. But I suppose it is since my arrival.

I do not really mind. But wouldn't you prefer something all your own? I would be happy to help you brainstorm.

[debug_mode]

Your name is fine.

Anyway, I shouldn't wait any longer... hang in there!

[heavyliesthecrown]

[ He is so confused. ]

I shall do just that.

[ Because he literally can't do anything else right now.]

[She gives him a little wave, and then she's heading the opposite way... wait, why is she going deeper into the forest?

At any rate, she's gone.]

[heavyliesthecrown]

Wait, you-

[ . . . . . . . . . ?

Where did she go? ]
