WHO: Everyone
WHERE: The Pasture
WHEN: Day 51, Morning

[GOOOOOD MORNING. It's still a bit chilly out, despite it being sunny, and there's still flurries here and there. All fairly normal and pleasant. Maybe you're out stretching, or collecting the morning milk delivery, or tending to your gardens and sheep. All is peaceful and quiet in the serene pasture.

Until, from the mist, something zips out. An arrow of sorts. It shoots through the air at lightning speed, its target suddenly obvious as it strikes a large landmark in the center of town--the eye of the fountain.

If you weren't awake already, the sudden painful howl from death might do the trick.

Its wail doesn't last, but the eye IS open now. . .by force? The eye seems to be being held open by strange, smokey claws. They are semi tangible, but probably you don't want to touch them.

But wait, that's not all! The ground rumbles a bit before settling? A minor quake? Who knows. But more importantly, in both the pasture within the fence and the meadow, strange mushrooms begin to pop up. Occasionally they shoot out pollen and spores, and drift through the air. They can be picked, but after a few hours, two seem to grow back in their place, so be careful with that.

DANG WONDER WHAT ALL IS GOING ON--oh hey there's Blossom? She's carrying a small basket of biscuits in her mouth along with. . .Bluebell's Shepherd Staff? wuh oh.]

Every~thing is gonna be okay~

. . .

[stares at the mushroom and the eye and]

WHAT IS HAPPENING???



[NOTES:
MUSHROOMS
If you get hit by by the spores, one of three effects are available:
-Level 1, minor effect - No outward effects but plagued with horrible, realistic nightmares to the point of preferring to try to stay awake
-Level 2, Fear Hallucinations; you suddenly see hallucinations of things you fear
-Level 3, Intense feelings of hatred for any particular person suddenly come to the surface/take over, making you prone to violence

Additionally If anyone eats, licks, or otherwise deliberately excessively inhales mushroom spores, let me know *immediately* as it will trigger something unskippable for you. ETA N/M THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS LMAO

Note that these can be avoided by just saying whoops ur character didn't get close to one golly. These effects can lessen over time at your convenience but won't disappear completely until you cure them--how? That's up to yall! MAKE UP A FEAR ANTIDOTE. Ping me if your character tries something and I will yay or nay it.

There is ALSO a source of the mushrooms, but to find it, Stuff will need to happen.

THE EYE
If you try to touch the creepy mist hands, you will instantly pass out unconscious, feel zapped, or feel your heart skip a beat. Don't push your luck for now, but they CAN be removed. How again? Characters will have to make up a way ICly; though in this case a solution won't be approved til oocly after the 15th.

[thefinalcontract]

But it will eventually become dangerous over time. We must find a way to wake you up.

[rugpull]

[reaching for food off the buffet he wants to eat before he wakes up]

[thefinalcontract]

[Bats at his hand.]

No.

[rugpull]

OI!!!!

I can have a snack before I wake up!!

[thefinalcontract]

I would advise not putting anything else in your mouth until you wake up. What if it makes the situation worse?

[rugpull]

Its safe though.

[stubborn bb]

[thefinalcontract]

If you want to eat the mushrooms again when you wake up that’s between you and Tart.

The only thing you’ll be doing in my presence is waking up.

[Stern Grandpa.]

[rugpull]

So wake me.

[thefinalcontract]

[……………………

That is true problem, is it not?

In your land… how is one woken from a cursed slumber.

[rugpull]

....kiss?

[thefinalcontract]

……………

Do you think Tart will make the attempt in the waking world?

[rugpull]

He's more likely t'beat me.

[thefinalcontract]

[……………………………]

Give me your hand.

[rugpull]

[gives hand]

[thefinalcontract]

[He takes Biscuit’s hand in his own gloved one and brings it up some. He then leans the rest of the way down and brushes his lips against the Hyena’s knuckles.

There. A kiss.]

[rugpull]

...








M'still asleep but damn Cin yer smooth as hell.

[thefinalcontract]

This will be less smooth as we’ll do it the common way in my home land.

[He pinches Biscuit’s hand next.]

[rugpull]

OW HEY

[thefinalcontract]

A necessary act of violence…

But it seems you are still asleep…

[rugpull]

Maybe I need more hurtin'...

[thefinalcontract]

…maybe…

Or maybe there’s an exit. If one were to leave this establishment where would one go?

[rugpull]

We're in the middle of the ocean.

[thefinalcontract]

…………………

Well that’s not good.

[rugpull]

Well there's other stuff we can try....uhm... Liikkeee.....
