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

OPEN TO ALL - CORDIAL INVITE FOR ALL MINGOS He was sweaty, why was he sweaty? It wasn't like he had anything to worry about. No pressure. but he was shopping. For a... a ring. For a gir- for the girl. He hoped. Maybe. If he could convince her.
He turned into a shop and the bell over the door dinged.
Could he afford a ring? Would she like it? Would she say yes? What if she said no? Would they still see each other?
Too many questions. And he hadn't even bought it yet to ask her with.

Edgar looked up as he heard the door ding, signaling that someone had entered. He had been discussing business with one of the owners, more specifically if they wouldn’t mind spreading the word about his. He said farewell to the owner and turned to leave then, only to be stopped at the door by the man coming in. He tried to step left, the man did the same. He tried to step right, and was copied again. So, Edgar took a step back and gestured for the man to pass. “Sorry.” He looked at the man as he spoke, noticing he was troubled. “Got something on ya mind?” he asked, despite the fact that starting a conversation was a rarity for him.

Was it his nerves getting the best of him. He embarrassingly kept getting in the other guys way. "Heh, sorry, hhh sorry again, excuse me," he spoke as they danced around one another. Finally the fellow came up with a solution and waved Mulven forward. He nodded his thanks. "Got something on ya mind?" The question made him pause, taking too long to register its meaning in his brain. He gave another nervous laugh.
"Yeah, funny thing, got too many questions on my mind, and probably too little coin in my pocket for the answers I'm after."

“That depends on what answers ye seek. Odd that you choose a jewelry shop to search. I hope you’re not trying to find your coin here.” Edgar glanced the man over, feeling as though he’d seen him before. He hadn’t met many people in the district yet. And he didn’t want to leave just yet if mister jitters here was going to cause any problems to the nice people he had just spoken to.

"Find my coin? Heavens no, I'm not here to rob the place, I want to buy a ring!" He clarified. He hadn't realized how threatening his words might have sounded if misinterpretation the wrong way. He held out his hands in a show of surrender, palms facing forward, hands empty. "I'm apart of the same guild, why would I rob it?"
Suddenly the door slammed open as a the Huge Hulking Miner Jo'e Came in with a sack of ores that he had been collecting outside the city to find the perfect spot "GooDay to ya all , have ya seen Amon? , i got some ores here and i think i stuck gold near by?" looking down at the 2 men he noticed one was wearing black and the other looked like a Barber type "oh sorry aboot my rudeness , ya must be apart of the guild too?" he asked

and here comes the diamond supplier, or so it seems. How many of those rocks in his sack would be turned into fancy rings on gold bands? He peeked behind the counter to see what they already had in the glass case.

“I haven’t met anyone else in the guild. My apologies.” Before Edgar could say more a giant of a man barged into the shop. It seemed they jewelers were getting a new batch of supplies. Edgar moved aside to let the tall man by. The first man he encountered slipped off to start looking at the rings. Edgar tapped him on the shoulder and held out his hand. “Edgar Anapello, I didn’t catch your name."

Mulven turned, remembering he wasn't alone and gave an apologetic smile to the other guy. "Sorry, got distracted. Nice to meet you Edgar, and welcome to the guild. I'm Mulven Renehan, construction expert." He shook the fella's hand.

Joe was surprised that these fellows where kind spoken , the last person tried to rob his sack of rocks but rocks are heavy and Joe was big, this was a nicer change of pace for today " Ah Nice ta met ya mini men, Am Joe Deeprock, miner an noble at ya service , My Papa sen me here ta learn under Amon as one of hos dieing wishes , do ya fin gentlemen know where Amon is? , if no , it be ok . anyway what be going on here?" he said in his thick ascent as he looked over the rings. "oh look at them nice things, teh Gold and silver here is of average quality from looking at them, am guessing between 8 and 10 carrots, not pure , maybe a bit of other things mixed in for strength? " he said as he appraised the rings with his very careful eyes and years of mining and forging metals of his own. "a ring is nice and all like that but is not as good as making ya own out of the best gold ya can make. as long as ya know how to make gold."

“I think I saw Amon at his shop,” Edgar answered among the large man’s paragraph of speech. “You know how to make gold?” he asked curiously. He had never met a miner before, let alone one who could work the materials he found. This city must have everything.

Mulven snapped his fingers. "Aha! Well then, maybe I should be talking to you about making one instead of buying it. I'll pay you directly, no middle man for you, no inflated price for me. And I can put in the labor myself, just tell me what to do. Whatdya say?" He asked the miner.
Joe stop the fellow "hold on there mi mini man , ya wanna ta make a ring ?, that's as easy ta do and no pay needed except the source of metal ya be using which ya will have to bring" Joe said with a smile "bring me any gold or silver , about 60 ounces or 6 ta 8 coin of one or teh other an ill make it into teh ring ya would like , ill even teach ya the fine art of smelting and casting if ya like?"
