WEEK 1

[bathymetric]

Happy New Year! ... You're still here. Looks like The Captain wasn't lying when he said the murdering is now up to you. That, or you can all live here on your own. Regardless, it's time to settle in. The days start passing much less eventfully after that first one, and, well... on it goes, huh?

There might not be a whole cruise ship to explore just yet, but there are a variety of amenities available to all of you! Who ever heard of a boring cruise ship, anyway? As the week goes on, you might even start to see some of those strange coins appear for you!

Better buckle down and get to know your fellow passengers, though, if you want to stand a chance of weathering this storm.



MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY
FRIDAY | SATURDAY

[ ooc: Welcome to peace week! Feel free to mingle (and investigate, if you like) to your hearts' content! Please ensure all investigation toplevels are marked accordingly, and otherwise enjoy! If you wish to talk to The Captain or Davy Jones, look here for the former and here for the latter! ]

Not the sort of thing you want to discuss, I take it? I won't pry.

[Sometimes it be like that.]

[dokkalfheimr]

Maybe someday. But not today.

[She's had a lot of conversations about that sort of thing lately. She's sort of conversed out?]

[scythegun]

That's understandable.

[humans will always be exactly this obnoxiously curious, rip fairies....]

I do appreciate hearing more about your realms; it's so vastly different from anything I've experienced!

[dokkalfheimr]

Is it...?

[...Like, yes, it's obviously different than here, but...]

I don't mind discussing it, precisely. I cannot always give you the answers you seek, however.

[scythegun]

Oh ja, I'm aware! I simply like hearing about it - I never would have thought there could be other worlds, so learning more about them has been very enjoyable!

[dokkalfheimr]

Does your world contain no other realms? Even if it is largely contained within what we would consider Midgard - the kingdom of humans - is there not even a realm of the dead?

[scythegun]

[Realm of the dead...]

As far as I'm aware, there's only the one. Of course, I don't know if our world does have any sort of deities or similar beings - if we do, we certainly haven't heard from them recently.

[dokkalfheimr]

...I wonder why that is. It isn't unheard of for powerful beings to not associate closely with mortals [unless they're waging war at which point all bets are off] but the thought of having no contact or knowledge of their presence at all is foreign to me.

[scythegun]

[the less said about that war with the entelexeia the better!!!!]

It does seem a bit odd. I never truly gave it much thought, but we don't really have any strong religious ties. The are myths surrounding a Goddess in the Empire, but I'm not all that familiar with them.

[dokkalfheimr]

[look I mean sometimes it's just like Hel or Fáfnir or Surtr

you don't know shit about them and then suddenly oops everybody is subjugated and you're getting screamed at by a manic person with shitty eyebrows that wants to torture you to death]

...These things simply are. Belief matters reasonably little in whether they exist or not.

[scythegun]

[he'll take our godless heathen existence, thanks!!!!!!!]

Oh ja, certainly! It's simply odd to think that once there was quite a lot of worship for her that has long since died off.

[So maybe she never existed in the first place, or maybe she did and something happened to her... Or maybe she pulled a Plumeria and decided humans are scum and she didn't want to interact with them. Which is totally fair, tbh.]

...speaking of tags vanishing???

[dokkalfheimr]

Our existence is long, and mortals are fickle creatures. Sometimes they forget us, or sometimes they move on. But it's uncommon for there to be no contact for so long, either way.

It almost makes me inclined to ask what all of you did to be so forsaken.

[Is she serious, is she fucking with you, it's hard to say.]

lmao oh no

[scythegun]

Hmm, that is a good question, isn't it? I doubt we're much more horrible than any other set of mortals!

[just like, ignore ragou over there.]

[dokkalfheimr]

So you're a common sort of terrible, and not even an interesting sort of terrible. That may be why she abandoned you.

[...wow, freyja.]

[scythegun]

Oh, is that why? What a shame, I suppose we should have tried harder to be awful...
