11/05 — ΣHeartless Snaring Cathedral...?

[userunfriendly]

Who: █████ & visitors
What: scheming
Where: Δ Hidden Forbidden Holy Ground (Hulle Granz Cathedral)
When: Sunday, 11/05
Warnings: to be added


[ Despite the ominous aura, the haunted tower has seen no shortage of visitors recently. But for those who gate in today the air itself is different. The skies are black, and the mist that had blanketed only the top of the tower now pours out across the plains, shrouding the ruined city from sight.

Anyone who goes looking for the master of the tower will find that the room he occupied before now holds only a single door, standing unsupported in the middle of the room. It beckons, tugging with a terrible compulsion — you know whatever sight awaits you is one you'll later wish you could forget, and yet... you look. But the door opens only onto the bridge leading to Hulle Granz Cathedral, where the first quiet strains of choral music through the open doors guides you on. ]

((Note: Characters are welcome to receive the location from any other player and gate directly to Δ Hidden Forbidden Holy Ground. Allowing those who found his tower inaccessible to come join, too, is cruelty.))

...Winter.

[ She doesn't have much to say, but – ]

Thanks. For helping me, when the wind whispered strange things to us.

I don't think you or I or anyone in here are saints. We're all perfectly capable of being cruel. But...I see that you are also capable of being kind. Many here are the same way. I would not be who I am if not for the kindness people like you have showed me.

[ She grins. It's good to see him again. ]

Don't let him twist everything into something painful. We're all flawed, but that makes the nice stuff way more special. Don't you think so?

[ The helmet turns towards her slowly, sluggish. Tired. All the parts of him that knew how to put on a good face for this have been peeled away. Gorre, Michel. Neither of them have anything remaining to offer here. ]

...I do not.

[ But he does try to say it somewhat more gently, as much as the giant's hollow voice allows.

Was it really Gorre that twisted everything? Or simply that so many things are pain? ]

But if those words were of use to you, then... I'm glad.
