Isla
It isn't often that Isla finds cause to even go this far out into the Settlement. She doesn't need food or water and most of the time she's capable of digging up whatever herbs and other medicinal plants she requires herself. And anything else comes via deliveries to the Infirmary. But this is a special request, from the most special of goddesses, and so out Isla comes. There's a tanner on the very fringes of the market (of course) and she needs some leather made. This isn't any leather, though - the pelt she carries is from a bear, gifted from a hunter who had needed to visit her clinic to take care of some injuries. (Injuries caused by the bear). And although it might be pitch black and although it has only been a couple of years since monsters roamed LongNight, the number of Ascended plus the relative safety has allowed the Grounds to operate on something of a business as usual basis. Crunching through the snow with the pelt over her shoulder, Isla approaches the tanner without delay. |

the same old things expecting something different It is rare to see Isla out this far. It’s also rarer still for Sunjata to be out of the VlamVloed despite knowing that LongNight was safe here. It was still the memories it dredged up, that first year in particular that he’d spent here – arguing with Lusea before she’d died again about things he had long since forgotten. But something about it seemed to suggest he needed out, only for a moment, a brisk run or flight or something in the darkness illuminated only by the few and far between torches.
He chooses to walk once the bite of the cold wind hits him, when the snow begins to crunch beneath his boot. He somehow manages to find Isla, his gaze partially shifted to one of the shifts he can see in the dark better with. “Hey! Isla!” He calls out to her, nearly slipping on some ice he’d missed by taking a bit larger of a step than he had been previously – still not one cut out for snow. “What do you have there?” He asks, flashing Isla an easy smile, crooked by nature of the scar bisecting his cheek. but by now we know it's never gonna change i'm not trying to complain, i'm just saying it's a waste Feel free to use magic/force on Sunjata, without killing him <3 Sunjata speaks with an Australian accent and has a passive magic that makes him produce a subtle scent that matches exactly to whatever those around him most desire him to smell like. the Remedy

the same old things expecting something different He’s close to tell her that he still isn’t used to the snow, but it’s a fact that he imagines she picks up on quickly. After all, he steps across the snow like a dawn taking its first few steps — awkward and unsure until the footing holds and he grows bolder. At the very least, he meets her head on, a smile blooming on his face. “Happy LongNight.” He hums back to her, finding the wording less strange than she would, given the times he’d stayed carefully sequestered away in places that weren’t barraged by creatures year after year.
He appraises the pelt as she explains, a low hum of understanding slipping from his lips. “Should turn out nice.” He says after scanning it before looking at her pale face again, briefly, before his gaze drifts out over the snow and ice. “Felt an itch to get out into the open.” He shrugs a shoulder, a hand rising to rub at the back of his neck over his scarf. It was likely something to do with the shifts within him, able to influence him just as they once had. His connection to them restoring slowly. “Mind if I join you?” Hanging out with her as she takes the pelt in sounds far more ideal than standing out in the open on his own, truthfully. but by now we know it's never gonna change i'm not trying to complain, i'm just saying it's a waste Feel free to use magic/force on Sunjata, without killing him <3 Sunjata speaks with an Australian accent and has a passive magic that makes him produce a subtle scent that matches exactly to whatever those around him most desire him to smell like. the Remedy

the same old things expecting something different He hasn’t, thankfully. He’s gotten a bit more resilient as time moves on from the weak demigod he’d become when he’d agreed to follow Frey and be one of theirs. He feels stronger, even, though he doesn’t try to test his boundaries too much – mainly for Nate’s sake. And Isla’s, on the other hand. “That’s a great idea.” He hums with a soft smile, stepping in a bit closer to see her better in the dark light of LongNight. “Would it be solely for you or larger to encompass whomever you’re healing?” His curiosity knows no bounds tonight, evidently.
As for his sense of smell, the Flood shrugs it off, an amused smile crossing his face. “Mm, well, I think I’ll manage it for the company.” It’s a gentle tease and one that has him growing a bit softer as she asks about the VlamVloed and Nate, a spark of light crossing his gaze in addition to his relaxed posture. “Good. Nate’s good now. The VlamVloed is still just as much of a hot spot as it had been before, though I think Neron’s help is beneficial currently.” A slight shrug leaves him, his attention drifting down the path they take, before turning back to her. “How’s the clinic and leadership going for you?” but by now we know it's never gonna change i'm not trying to complain, i'm just saying it's a waste Feel free to use magic/force on Sunjata, without killing him <3 Sunjata speaks with an Australian accent and has a passive magic that makes him produce a subtle scent that matches exactly to whatever those around him most desire him to smell like.

You’ve encountered a Banshee. This counts as a rare creature encounter for the purposes of levelling, but does not count as a Random Event for levelling or MP. There will be no further admin/re intervention. If you choose to follow this creature, you do so at your own risk, however, just having it in this thread is enough to satisfy your levelling requirements. You may not kill your rare creature without admin permission. Banshees (rare/mythical): They take the form of a skeletal lady wrapped in rags. Some wander the woodlands, singing a haunting melody. Others sit near streams and weep. Either way, disturbing these creatures will cause them to become very aggressive. They can pursue their prey seemingly without need for rest, and will strangle all those that they catch. the Remedy

the same old things expecting something different “It never hurts to ask, right?” He asks, as a small, crooked smile forms on his face. The worst thing the Voice could say is no, after all. But the two of them fall into easy banter, her shoulder nudging his with the gentle tease, a soft laugh leaving him in the form of a small cloud passing by his face due to the cold. His lips part, about to add something else into the mix when the scream breaks through the air and suddenly everyone’s in motion.
Tension shoots through him immediately – for a second, confused that its some LongNight monster and that the battles weren’t over yet, before realizing it’s a banshee. Not that it changes much, given how dangerous banshees are (and they’re not exclusive to the two darkest weeks of the year). Armored plates cover his arms as Isla tugs him toward the tanners, silent and keeping hidden just as Isla does, gaze flickering to the tanner. “It’s getting bold.” Sunjata comments quietly, nose wrinkling as he frowns. “Do we think there’s more of them than just this one terrorizing everyone?” but by now we know it's never gonna change i'm not trying to complain, i'm just saying it's a waste Feel free to use magic/force on Sunjata, without killing him <3 Sunjata speaks with an Australian accent and has a passive magic that makes him produce a subtle scent that matches exactly to whatever those around him most desire him to smell like. the Remedy

the same old things expecting something different Wincing as the banshee walks by, Sunjata keeps his gaze half on watching it disappear and half on everyone else who’s hidden themselves away. His question is soon answered, though, a little hum of acknowledgement that they’re solitary, before his nose wrinkles at the idea of a group of them. But now that it’s mostly vanished, he glances over at her with a small half relieved smile. “Do you think a group of them would be called a pity party?” A wink slips from him, an air of a laugh.
She straightens up, though, and he follows suit, an arm placed behind him in the small of his back as he stretches it out from the hunch he’d placed himself in. “No need to be sorry. I asked how the clinic and leadership was going.” It’s mostly idle chit chat anyway, given that he hardly has much going on aside from his quest from Frey.

the same old things expecting something different He clicks his tongue at her final answer of a coven, a shake of his head. “Sounds too official.” He murmurs with another soft snort. But he draws silent, watching the interaction and the exchange between the Overseer and the tanner, waiting until they’re done before his attention is fully on Isla again.
All amusement fades, his face forming the frown that’s so prominent in the wrinkles growing on his face. He nods, understanding glimmering there. “No, it’s not.” It wasn’t easy in the slightest to bear the weight on a single pair of shoulders. He knows, he’s done it, and he couldn’t handle it after a while. His hand rises, warm and gentle to rest on her shoulder as he offers her a soft smile. “Well, if you need any help or an ear to vent to, I’m at least experienced in sole leading of a region to either commiserate or offer advice.” It might have been over a year now, but he was still a leader regardless.
