WHERE: idk somewhere in the pasture that's relatively comfortable. library?
WHEN: nebulous day 51 between shenanigans

[shepherds of sheepgame y'all get a call from Charon at some point:]

We can agree that there's a new foe in the mists with real and active intent to endanger us all, correct? As they've done us the courtesy of a warning strike and not an all-out offensive from the start, let's meet and come up with a plan of action together. I'm sure we're all looking to our barns individually, but it's better if a direct threat never gets that far in.

If people in your flock or Weeds your flock is friendly with want to present some suggestions and solutions themselves, or just attend to stay informed, please have them attend as well.

[WHAT IT SAYS ON THE TIN, i'll put up some headers, let people know what you/your team are doing or planning under the appropriate ones so that other people can chime in with suggestions and assistance! HANDWAVE YOU GOT TOLD IF YOU WANNA BE THERE.

Charon is not going to be responding to Absolutely Everything because i am but one player but everyone feel free to jump each other. i'll sort out a summary at the end as needed.

ETA: SUMMARY IS here, if you wanna get involved with anything on the list please assume you overheard something about it during the meeting and hit up the other people involved!]

Muffin-san, might I speak with you? I heard you were hoping to test some things with the lighthouse lamp.

[ah... so his identity in the confession booth really was known...]

Um, sure.

[Sorry, Muffin.]

I possess a scale which serves as a sort of mirror. It is a scale of the Forever Snake.

This scale reveals the truth- in whatever form that takes.

I wondered... if it could be utilized to peer farther into the mists by filtering light through it somehow. Or if it can be magnified in some way.

So you want me to shoot a laser at it?

A laser...sunlight... Something like that if you think it possible without breaking it.

Is not very damaging laser. Have shot lots of stuff with it.

What kind of truths has the scale shown?

It just depends. For instance, if I look in it, my ears will be missing within my reflection.

. . . I have also witnessed another form that Miss Blossom possesses.

I just wonder if it has the ability to see through the fog and if so what it might reveal.

[chirps?]

You'll have to ask someone else if you want to test it on the mist directly. I can help with um, experiments in here, but I'm not going past the fence.

What'd Blossom look like?

Oh- please do not misunderstand. I was hoping we might be able to light it up and direct it toward the mist from the light house.

It may be a long shot but it is worth trying, right?

[He lifts a hand up to his chin in thought.]

Miss Blossom looks humanoid, however. She has puffy pink hair and two horns on her head, but otherwise looked human.

Oh... her form before they all shrank. Like Stormy's and the old murals.

Um yeah, could try putting light through scale. If doesn't work, is just light. Shouldn't hurt anything.

She stumbled away before I could get a very good look at her, but yes- it was just like that.

Anyhow, if you like, after this meeting I can show you the scale. Perhaps your other form would be revealed when looking in it?

If is showing the truth, should just show my reflection as is. But I would like to see the scale.

When we finish up here, then.

After that, we can head up to the tower at your earliest convenience.

[chirrups]

Okay. Sooner we know what tools and weapons we can use, the better.

I agree. It seems abundantly clear to me that we are in danger right now, so preparing is the best thing we can do.

In the meantime, I will speak with the eel brothers about us possibly making sure the river is secure and that nothing will break in through our water source, either.

That's a good idea. I'm going to find other people who can fly and see if we can watch the air too.

Good idea. It will be best for us to cover all fronts.

Thank you, Muffin-san.

[chirps!]

IS no problem.

Let me know if there is anything more I can do to help, too.

Of course. Are all going to have to work together to get through this.
