WEEK FIVE MINGLE

[grigori]

nerak: week 5 mingle at your service

25 Remain

Waking up this morning will reveal some unfamiliar surroundings. While Camebit had an autumnal chill in the air, things are a little different, now - the air is frigid, and waking up is an adventure, considering you are swaddled to the nines and cozied right up to your roomie of the week (where you have one, anyways). Everything around you is made of ice and packed snow, fogged glass and porcelain, and it is freezing. Who thought this was a good idea? Even the brisk chill of Camebit in the skies above everything was more forgiving than this! This isn't a transition! Whose manager can you speak to..?

About that.



You have to trek out of the lodging, and over into the building made of actual wood and stone, to actually see your Watchers of the week. They're all dressed in their full cloaks again to combat the chill, even in this building, although both Rameel and Satariel are standing much closer to Yomiel than they usually do - much like they had in Ahnkeen, actually.

"Good morning and welcome to Nerak! If you've ever wondered what it was like to stay at an ice hotel, then you're in luck!" Rameel says with moderate flourish as they make sure to keep close to Yomiel—their daemon currently not found anywhere near them as they make the announcement. Looks like they're without their black box of musical wonders this morning.

While the other two Watchers press close, Yomiel's daemon has wrapped itself around their neck like a polecat scarf. Warm. Arm cradled gently against their chest, they pause to glance at Satariel before greeting everyone. "Try to be careful. The ice can get slippery, especially when you're all looking like that and leaving a mess everywhere you go." Whatever that means.

Satariel seems a little more subdued than usual but offers everyone a smile, daemon bear-shaped against their back, large head peering around at everyone while they take in the travelers that come to join them here in the hotel lobby. Their cloak is completely closed around them - not even the front of their dress can be seen, and they're clearly holding it tightly shut. "Please be nice to the hotel staff - if I catch any of you being rude to them, I'll kick you clear across the tundra before sticking you in their outdoor 'jail' for timeout. We're guests, but they're working hard to accommodate us, alright?"


With the new week, travelers will find that they no longer the adorable animal features they did in Camebit, but something much less cute. Injuries from their pasts have come back to haunt them, major or minor, and they cannot be healed. The good thing is that they don't seem to hurt or really take a toll on the travelers at all - at least, not until they're touched, and then both you the other will feel the pain from the moment the wound was inflicted. This effect lasts all week.

[ have more words that has pooled into the snow!

"Ohh, I am, I am! You know of the little Blood Devil?! ...She has friends?" Kim Dokja doesn't know what to make of the shark fiend before him, but they have concluded... he's probably an idiot. ]

I am, Alisaie already tended to me. [ A sigh, it's not even that serious? HE LITERALLY HAD WORSE IN HIS FIRST ADVENTURE? "maybe don't roll a nat 20." mAyBe dOn'T rOlL a NaT 20. ]

[quiz]

How do we make it stop, then?

[ She's talking about the words just fucking spilling out of him. ]

[afterword]

That's from my injury with this realm's effects. I'll need to apply new bandages to stop my stories from bleeding out.

[ But at least he's putting pressure on it now. So it stifles it a bit. ]

[quiz]

[ She takes out a few bandages from her satchel. ]

Come on. Let me just patch you up.

[ Quickly. Is it obvious that she wants to keep all of this from spilling out? ]

[afterword]

[ Yes, it is obvious, but he will not comment on it. He'll loosen his shirt just enough to show that something is bleeding from his shoulder? No wound, of course. ]

Light bandages should be fine for now. I can properly patch it up later. [ After a hot shower cause he is. Covered in dry blood and stories. ] Be careful to not touch the spot.

[quiz]

[ Just slaps her hand onto his shoulder to get it over with. No this isn't a joke tag. ]

[afterword]

[ HELLO???? Anyways have fun feeling as if your arm was just torn off. Dokja sure isn't having fun, it sucked the first time. At least it fades quickly enough. ]

[quiz]

[ She hardly even flinches. Blinking once, pausing briefly, before she's unrolling the wrap of bandages and starts aligning them against his shoulder. ]

Idiot.
