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

"Yeah... sure..." Danny dusted her coat off and sat silently for a moment. "Great... now I'm just riled up." She stood up abruptly and began pacing back and forth. It'd be time soon... just needed those two to get up there, say their stuff, and be done with it.
"Guess I'm going to try and find a seat... should be about time."
"Blonde, named Danielle..." said Ikuze when Caitlin inquired about the girlfriend. "I just don't know what to do... If I go through with it, then I'm hurting her... but if I don't then I'm going to feel like I'm no better than my damned mother and hurt my grand-father... Not to mention the Lelands..." the thief said with a sigh. "I told her she could be his mistress, or even take the chance to storm the altar herself... to do something... But... Grargh!" said Ikuze as she punched the dresser desk, wincing as her injured hands flared with fresh pain. "Right... forgot... still on the mend..." she muttered to herself. "How do I make this right?" she asked, looking up at Caitlin.
Lone nodded, although she wasn't quite sure what Eryn meant by 'cool'. She had been under the impression that 'cool' meant cold or chilly... She glanced to the side slightly at the outburst of the person talking to the one who gave her the caramel, but brushed it off, and looked back at Eryn for direction.
getting up and gesturing Lone . Eryn start their adventure around this house , starting with a door that went into a hallway , as she looked down as the nice and shiny objects it seem very very amazing , this was a bit like Edelweiss's home but different but with shiny stuff "Waaaaa~, Lone look at this place has a lot of nice things, do you think we can find the food place around here" they was some stairs , which Eryn wanted to go to and go up , as she gesture to her friend as she started to walk down the hallway and towards the stair as the adventure went on.
(yes , Eryn are coming, hopefully they can bump into Caitlin and Ikuze, could start something funny but building up to that )

As Zona walked about, she looked and admired the décor of the wedding, amazed at how everything flowed together and looked soo... elegant. The groups of people coming in was slowly getting smaller, but the amount of people around was much larger. Though the people began to blur and blend together two people did stand out to Zona, two young and small girls, one with white hair and the other dressed in white, almost to appear as a small ghost. The two girls began to head off through a door into the house, a bit curious as to what they were doing Zona followed the two. She ended up walking faster than she thought and ended up just behind the girls, thinking it weird to keep following them without the two knowing she made herself known, "Well hello Eryn, hello Lone. How are you two doing?" Zona said in a kind and happy voice.
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! Badger: If you're gonna cuss with somebody, you're not gonna cuss with me, you little cuss! Mr. Fox: You're not gonna cuss with me! -Fantastic Mr.Fox (2009)
She followed her friend as she gestured to her, but Lone became nervous when they approached the door to the Leland's. Of course, it wasn't the building itself that she had a problem with, because she did live in a crawl space underneath, after all. It was the mass of people that had congregated, heightening the likelihood of them being seen. The girl with the burnt and battered wings glanced behind her, her pale eyes anxious and wide, then turned back and followed after Eryn. Her fears escaped her for a moment as she saw Eryn's face light up at the stunning interior of the house, and smiled a little to see her adventuring companion joy. She asked about where food could be located, and Lone stood taut, as she knew exactly where that was due to months of heading through the house in that direction to steal her the majority of her meals. Just as she was about to lead Eryn in that direction, she heard stressed voices from a room just up the stairs, and, due to her curiosity, decided to go and inspect that instead. She reached the door and kneeled beside. "How do I make this right?" She heard from inside, and peered through the door, slightly ajar, at the two inside. She didn't hear Zona at all when she spoke, and was unaware of her presence.
Eryn tuned to see a woman , with tattoos and a thing covering there face , it made them look like a rat through Eryn's eyes but the voice she know "oh Hello Zona , Me and Lone are on an adventure " it was then when Lone went up the stairs suddenly, "lone , you found something?" she asked as she followed behind her , there as she made up she heard someone upset as well , noticing where Lone was looking she came up behind and crawled beside her and peeked through too just below her , she could make out 2 figures , both woman and one was wearing white.
(they are here)

Zona smiled as the small girl told her that they were on an adventure, Zona thought for a moment it would be fun to join them on this adventure. Just as Zona was about to ask to join a shoulder of someone hit her, "Hey..." Zona began to say as she saw they were hurrying to get outside, meaning she needed to get out there to find a seat. Turning back to the girls she called up to them, "Well you two be careful, and don't be in here for too long the wedding should be starting soon." Zona then turned and headed out the door, found a seat somewhere in the back, and sat down.

"Blonde, named Danielle..." said Ikuze when Caitlin inquired about the girlfriend. "I just don't know what to do... If I go through with it, then I'm hurting her... but if I don't then I'm going to feel like I'm no better than my drated mother and hurt my grand-father... Not to mention the Lelands..." the thief said with a sigh. "I told her she could be his mistress, or even take the chance to storm the altar herself... to do something... But... Grargh!" said Ikuze as she punched the dresser desk, wincing as her injured hands flared with fresh pain. "Right... forgot... still on the mend..." she muttered to herself. "How do I make this right?" she asked, looking up at Caitlin.
Caitlin winced with her when she hurt her hand. A sympathy gesture. She was quiet for a moment but she couldn't avoid the gaze the girl gave her, that inquiry for Cait to lead, to depart some wisdom, to help make this journey easier. She couldn't She hadn't even made the journey herself. She'd run from it.
"Like I said, Ikuze, you have to do the thing that you can live most with. If you can't live with betraying your grandfather then do whats right by him, if you can't live with betraying your friends, do whats right by them... but who cares about the Lelands, they're about as up there as my own father, they can survive a little scandal it might even be good for them." Seriously, how else was she still in tact with her title after all the hell she'd raised? It was something to think about.
"Just make sure, whatever you do, you can live with yourself. Be true to you."
She sat her glass down next to the decanter and leaned back. This was nice... like falling into a vat of marshmallow fluff. Calm, muffled, the rest of the world blocked out by the closed door to his cabin, and here they were safe inside. Safe from reality, safe from their own complicated lives. Safe from duty. Safe from context. Just. Safe. --Caitlin
Post by Edelweiss Fjäril on Nov 10, 2014 16:57:04 GMT
Edelweiss had wanted to stay sitting for a while, both as it had been hard to find that vacant seat and so that she could take a better look at the surroundings and maybe catch a glimpse of Stephen before the ceremony had actually started - since the brides usually arrives some minutes after the groom. Seemed like Eryn found a friend though, and with the little ones' excitement it would be silly to expect them to just stay there. The redhead gave a bit of a sigh and stood up, making way for the smaller bodies of the two young girls to pass through that tangle of legs and seats, and then took her own way while walking around.
It wasn't the first time she had been at the Leland's (last time had been at the Lodan's parade and the first had been sneaking in the middle of night to carry a very nauseated Stephen back home after his assassin trial ended) and that part of the manor wasn't so hard to walk through quick, besides she had the impression to have seen someone familiar going down that corridor. Sure enough, Edel could hear Caitlin's voice coming from one of the rooms as she passed by. Apparently talking to the bride. Oh well, seemed like she might not need to have a chat with Stephen afterall. "Excuse me," She said in a quiet voice after lightly knocking at the door a couple times, though she didn't actually enter nor open said door. "I was looking for Stephen to know for sure if this will be a happy event happening or shouldn't be happening at all, but apparently you're already discussing that, so may I be let in---" Voices coming a little ways behind and sure enough a minute later there came Zona, Eryn and Lone, with the two small girls actually peeking through the bride's door. Oh goodie, it was becoming crowded in here. And good thing she had refrained from commenting that "I told her she could be his mistress" had sounded like the worst possible thing to ever be said to any ex-girlfriend ever.

"Well! Any friend of my son is welcome here! Especially the beautiful ones" he gave her a wink, chuckling. "I am quite proud of my son! He is going to settle down and give me many grandchildren! At such a young age as well! Ah, but I started proposing to women by the age of 6 so I suppose we are similar in that way" He roared with laughter, causing some of the guests next to him to jump with surprise. The large man grinned profusely "Enjoy yourself my dear! There will be a tremendous feast after this joyous event! I want you to promise that you will take as much as you want and maybe even more after that, alright?" Pulling out his pocket watch he frowned a little "That is, if my son plans on attending the wedding on time. I best go check on him. Go ahead and take a seat or wander around! I will see you later dear" he gave her a quick bow then went off. ~~~~~ Marcus was on his way back to the Grooms dressing room when he spotted a Maid. Well, heaven's blessed, he couldn't just IGNORE the woman! "Hello, Ma'am, I do believe we just met not but a moment ago. Are you by any chance off to check on the groom? Trust me dear, I am a far more interesting character then he, so why not stay with me?" he flirted with a big grin, catching up to walk next to her. ~~~~~ Stephen had snuck away from the original dressing room and moved to another upstairs room in the house. Quietly, he closed the door behind himself, looking around in the room. "Hey, are you here cuties?" he called out quietly, not wanting to get caught. A genuine smile lit up his face as a chorus of meows answered him. Portia and Puck were the first to reach up, bounding over excitedly as they tried to jump on him. The other five trotted over, tails flicking. He sat down on one a chair and let the adorable creatures crawl all over him. Petting Oberon, his newest addition, he sighed. "Is I bad to give someone a gift that was originally for another person?" The cat purred in response, leaving the question unanswered.

Elaine couldn't help but smile. She nodded as he made her promise and watched him walk off watch in hand. Clutching her gifts at her side she made her way to a seat about the middle. "I believe this will do." Folding her skirt under her Elaine seated herself and looked down at her dress. The light blue fabric was soft and it honestly was her favorite dress she owned. And possibly the only formal one. Long sleeves and not very high-waisted it was flowy and easy to move in. Just like her regular clothes. Adjusting her mask she waited patiently for the ceremony to begin.
Post by Lasair Landevier Lupen on Nov 11, 2014 2:21:53 GMT
Following Danielle's lead, Lasair walked behind the girl and took a seat next to her. People were indeed beginning to settle down and find a seat, and there probably wouldn’t be many places left to sit soon given the large crowd. It seemed the ceremony would start soon, or at least, everybody wanted it to start soon. If only the groom would get to the altar so that things could come under way… Lasair sighed slightly and began tapping his foot on the ground quietly. He never did care to wait.
"I just..." began Ikuze when Edel appeared at the door... and her ears picked up the sounds of others hiding around the door corner. "...How many and how long?" she asked with a chuckling sigh, not sure whether to be amused or not that she had been eavesdropped on. "I honestly don't know... I've never... done this before. Relationship stuff I mean, aside from the whole..." said the thief as she gestured to the wedding gown she was set up in. She sat there silent for a moment before tilting her head as a thought came to her. "...I may not know what to do... but... if he wants to go through with this, then I will as well... This is as much his call as it is mine... even more so." Ikuze said, nodding to herself as she made her choice. "I won't run like my mother did... I'll tell him at the altar that she's here... He'll probably hate me for it... but... It'll be his call." she decided. "I just hope she doesn't hate us both for it..." sighed the thief.
Linda blinked as she was addressed by the... best man. She blushed a little as every story involving weddings that she should most definitely have never read before, sprang into her thoughts. She blinked again though as another thought came to mind. "Ummm... why aren't you with him? Aren't you supposed to keep an eye on him?" she asked, a tremor entering her voice as the memories of the recent murders came to mind, even though the primary culprit had been taken into custody.

Lefiruc looked around at the assembled guests, nodding at them every so often as they passed him by, engaging in small talk as befitted the grand-father of the bride. He had to admit... he had not been expecting quite this many guests. Seemed every walk of life in Lodan was attending the wedding... definitely a good thing that it was being hosted by the Lelands then. Oh but how he wished he could spread his wings... but he could not even bring them out despite that having been his plot the entire time for having the wedding on this day. He turned his attention to the clock above before nodding slowly.
He rapped his cane against the floor once, twice, thrice to gather everyone's attention. "First, allow me to extend my gratitude for all here attending this special event." he began when the room was silent. "Given the recent tragedies that had befallen our proud city and her people, it is heart-warming to see so many gathered for this special day in these young lives. The wedding is to take place momentarily, so if everyone could please take their seats." called out the elder Storm before he made his way towards the best man, a fellow who was flirting with his maid. "I do believe that is your cue young sir to locate the groom, and bring him to the altar." Lefiruc said to Marcus quietly, yet sternly.
