WEEK 6

Good morning, passengers. Happy Sunday. Happy New Year.

Three more of your number gone - or four, depending on your point of view. But regardless, you're down three bodies. The boat is getting less crowded, week by week. A loneliness only exacerbated by yet another new floor, and yet another section of topdeck. There are almost too many facilities for you to use by now, aren't there? And yet the amenities keep on coming. One of them is even personalized, this time, and perhaps not in a way you're fully comfortable with.

Who knows, maybe if your number falls enough, you'll be able to just exist permanently on the different floors. Might keep you out of the trial room for more than a week.

Are you at the point where you'd settle for that yet?

And if you look to the horizon, out in the distance... there are clouds starting to gather on the horizon this week.




SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY

[ ooc: Welcome to week 6, everyone! Remember to turn in AC here and coins for regains over here! If you wish to get in contact with the npcs, Davy Jones is over here, and The Captain is over here! And as requested, profiles are accessible here. ]

You can bond with inanimate things in such a way?

[That's fascinating?]

Yeah, of course. But a malak who uses a holy body of water as a vessel wouldn't be able to stray far from it. It's why I like Siegfried; I take it with me.

There's also the option to take a human as your vessel; there's a whole ritual involved with it and everything. I've never done that, though.

I thought the nature of humans was the issue to begin with...?

Not all of them. It's... mm, how to explain it.

[He frowns.]

A soldier who knows he is doing the wrong thing, but does so anyway would produce malevolence; a man who revels in the violence he causes would not. Does that make sense?

A person who lives by their ideals, who has significant resonance, could make a suitable vessel. It gives them access to our artes, and us protection from malevolence. Not a bad deal, if that's your thing.

...I am not certain I fully understand, but I think I can follow the idea.

[It sounds like a mess to work out, honestly.]

Do the mortals here produce such a thing, or is it something that only happens in your world?

They don't seem to. If they did everyone here would probably already be dead. Despair breeds malevolence.

[And Zaveid would be a dragon. Hooray!]
