Prepare for the #LodanRespawn2024 Existing characters may choose to be displace from/have memories of different timelines, thereby allowing returning members the option to retcon their whole character. These changes are the result of the "Unnatural Fog" plot device that is running between now and the Respawn. The plot is simple: no matter where your character is, that place is shrouded in a thick fog that suspends time, but not thoughts or memories, so even if they're repeating the same day over and over again, they continue to remember, so each time feels like a new day. For those retconning OCs; this is where new versions of themselves have the opportunity to replace the old versions. Official lore and tree updates will be announced asap
“Max,” was all she said, taking the hand and shaking it lightly. She looked Zona in the eyes and didn't see a hint of recognition, which was all the better in Max’s mind. “I take it you two know each other, but don’t get along. Perhaps I should be leaving,” Max mused, looking back towards the road at the opposite end of the beach.

Iacomus put his arm around Max's shoulders. "Oh no, please do stay! I'll show you my shop if you would like..." Iacomus glared at Zona with hateful eyes, even though outwardly he looked as pleasant as he usually did.

"I gotta say..." Zona said to Max as she walked closer to Iacomus, seeing the hate in his eyes, "Ya hit the nail right on the head!" Zona said with a large smile as she took and wrapped her arm around Iacos shoulder, in a playful and teasing manner. She loved to push his buttons and she was sure this would do that, "Ya lets go to Iacos place! And if ya don't like what he sells there are tons of other things around, I'm sure your bound to find something ya like or need! And if not Iaco has some great drinks" Zona said with a wink and a smile as she removed her arm from Iacomus's shoulder and patted him on the back, "Lets go!"

Max tensed up as Iaco’s arm landed on her shoulder, but she didn’t protest it. It was odd and a bit uncomfortable, but she had seen the action among friends and accepted it as such. She could feel the hate between Zona and Iaco more than she could see it, but if Zona wanted to continue to irk him, then so be it. “Alright. Lead the way, Iaco,” Max said plainly, looking towards the road again and eager to escape the ocean.

"Splendid idea, Zona!" Iacomus said with an irritated grin "We shall get drinks while they are there!" And with that he walked back to the walkway and shook the sand off his feet. He replaced his boots, then took Max by the shoulders and pushed her along. "It is quite a splendid shop!" He glanced back at Zona as they walked.
Max was rather uncomfortable with Iaco pushing her forward, but after the first couple feet, she sighed and accepted it. She noticed several people looking on with confused expressions, but none of them tried to stop the odd group. A boyish girl, a creepy man, and a blue-haired, tattooed oddball. Of course no one would stop them, that would be asking for trouble. “So how far is it?” Max asked as they entered the Merchant’s district.

Zona gave a smirk as they began to walk, not only is she able to annoy and pester Iacomus even more but she will get a rink out of it too! She watched as the old man stared back at her with hate in his eyes, all Zona could do was continue to smile. "Its not that far." Zona said as she shoved her hands in her pockets and continued to walk behind the two.

"Here we are!" Iacomus said with a smile as he stood in front of the shop with a wooden sign that read in crudely written letters, 'Organ Shop.' He stepped forward and proceeded to hold open the door with his foot as he took a bow and extended his arm, welcoming the two inside.
Max raised her eyebrows at the sign, feeling surprised but also feeling like she shouldn’t be. She stepped inside slowly, looking at the surroundings with interest. She had heard rumors of an organ shop, but never adventured into the merchant’s district to find it. Not missing a beat however, she turned to Iaco and asked, “Do you get a lot of business?”

Iaco chuckled and gave max a sly wink. "When it comes to business, I get enough." He could tell she was somewhat surprised, as most are, but it still amused him. With an arm on each of their shoulders he herded the two inside.

Zona stiffened as the old mans hand touched her, but still she followed as he led them inside. Once inside Zona quickly ducked out from under his arm and walked straight over to the counter where in one fluid motion she jumped up onto the counter and made herself comfortable, leaning against the wall that ended the counter. "Ya know..." Zona started as she crossed her arms and rose them behind her head, "I'm surprised you don't haven't turned this into a funeral home side business... With your line of work and all I could easily see you running that." Zona said smiling at the thought of Iaco having to deal with sad people.
Badger: The cuss you are. Mr. Fox: The cuss am I? Are you cussing with me? Badger: No, you cussing with me? Mr. Fox: Don't cussing point at me!

Slipping out of Iaco’s arm like Zona had, Max stood to the side of the door. She looked over his shop with a skeptical eye, but decided that it wasn’t as bad as it could be. Iaco had managed to get the shop space, so she couldn’t judge how he used it. After a moment she leaned against the nearest wall, not knowing what else to do. “So how would one buy an organ?” Max asked after a few moments.

"Quite simply. They'd tell me what they need, and I would bring out the best of the bunch. If the specified how they wanted it, then I would find the closest to that. Then they would pay for it and take it. Just as you would buy most things. Although..." He winked "I also sell shrunken heads for decoration if anybody would want one of those. It goes with the business." He turned to Zona "And as I could easily have that job, Zona, I prefer this one. We could not have me doing both at the same time. People would suspect something." He chuckled.

Zona looked off at the ceiling understanding what he ment when he said that, but still thinking it was stupid, "Whatever... It is you place of business." Zona said as she continued to look at the ceiling, "I still think you should paint that thing...."

Iacomus looked up as well. "Hm, To be honest with you, I thought you just said that because you were delusional after being pierced with a bullet and having it removed on my countertop."
