WEEK SIX MINGLE

kings: week 6 mingle the big orange
22 Remain

Another week, another world to explore. Once again, waking brings you to unfamiliar surroundings, the bitter touch of Nerak cold fading to the more mild weather of autumn. The sound of cars or people talking or faint music greets your ears, no matter the time of day or night, and the light pollution is intense. Hope you weren't counting on seeing the stars.

Welcome to Kings, where you'll have your pick of shopping, entertainment, cute date spots, or just about anything else that you can think of! The city has something to offer for everyone. You'll never be wanting for things to do here - just try not to get lost in the subways. The locals may not be the most willing to help out.



Waiting for you to join them in the main plaza of Star Circle are Baraqiel, Shamsiel, and Suriel. You might have to push your way through the crowds to reach them properly, but no one's blinking an eye at your Watchers today. There are other people in costume hanging around already. What's a few angels to add to the antics?

Suriel greets everyone with their usual cheerful smile, fox daemon pressed close to their ankles to avoid getting lost in the crowd. "I bet this world reminds a bunch of you of home, huh? Let's all make the most of it while we're here!"

Baraqiel heaves a sigh, daemon weasel-formed and half-hidden in the folds of their hood as it suspiciously squints at every noise its little ears pick up. "Speak for yourself." They do not seem 100% thrilled with this worldhop, come the new week, but do at least offer something to the travelers gathered. "For those of you less used to cities like this, there are motorized vehicles of varying sizes in Kings - try not to get run over by them."

With a soft laugh, Shamsiel will look at Baraqiel and gently pat them on their upper arm and their falconet daemon will then proceed to take flight from their shoulder. At least they seem to be relieved that Baraqiel gave them a warning for those who aren't going to be familiar with it. "And much like the previous worlds we've been to, please be mindful of what you end up doing here. We are just visitors, after all, and it'd be rude if we left it all a mess."


As for your effect of the week... Your past injuries have cleared, with no phantom pains left to haunt you, your loved ones, or your launders. Instead, you'll find that you are unable to speak dishonestly - any time you try, your words get stuck on the tip of your tongue and never quite make it out. It's honesty week, lads - no more lying to yourselves or anyone else.

... The scientists there did mention it was too late for adults to be free of sin and be free of the angels, which is why they choose children.

I believe they were refining their tracking to seek angels and eliminate them.

It's wholly ridiculous because the whole things about Sin is that we are, supposedly, born into it!

[JUST. HE'S SO?! ANGRY?!]

It makes everything about what that note Kim Dokja-ssi found seem like poor justification for the cruelty and abuse and suffering they're orchestrating!

Born into in other worlds, possibly told by the Authority in this universe.

...

[He's thoughtful, but frowning.]

Does anyone know if the dead have their daemons there with them? Was it ever mentioned?

... I believe they do not have their daemons.

Hm.

Then I wonder if that Dust from those daemons was, indeed, harvested for their cruel cause.

If I recall correctly... somewhere, in a letter, was the realm that they live in not described as a realm without Dust?
greatdeduction: (the speckled band)

[personal profile] greatdeduction 2021-11-09 03:20 am (UTC)(link)
Was there?

[He can't remember, but...]

Much like...a regular world, I suppose?

[Boy, that's a troubling thing to hear.]

They don't? They're just...gone?

[personal profile] malewife 2021-11-09 12:35 am (UTC)(link)
They didn't show up at the ball... And my conversation with the Watchers have led me to believe their daemons may be gone.

They didn't at the ball.

I'd assume not. Their daemons collapse into Dust, don't they? But it's not the same as when they're forcibly separated, is it?

Both sides are wretched!
