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

“How’d you learn your way around? Just by wandering?” He stepped forward and held the door open for Clair, already smelling fruit on the other side of it. He was temped to ask who stocked this place, but decided against it. He was just glad to see the lovely winged lady smiling as much as he was now.
"Got lost once or twice, ended up finding everything but what I was looking for," she admitted. "Thank you," she walked by him as he held the door open, tucking her wings in tightly so they wouldn't brush on anything. "I haven't found everything yet though, far from it. I'd like to spend more time here than I do, but my work on the farm takes up most of my time." Weird. She doesn't usually talk so freely about her personal life to any body. She'd already told him a great deal about herself and her family. Mostly out of guilt for that last comment but now she was giving away information for free.

“I’ll try to spend more of my free time here, as opposed to the many bars of Lodan. What’s it like working on a farm? My parents run a jewelry shop, but I never learned the trade.” He walked forward into the kitchen, inspecting the many cabinets. He peered into several of them until he found what he was looking for. It wasn’t much, but a bottle of red wine was still something. Now, the new challenge was finding glasses.
Clairee hopped up on the counter and let her feet sway back and forth opposite of one another. "It's ok I guess. Just have to keep the barn clean, the animals fed and the stalls mucked. Jewelry trade sounds way nicer in my opinion. I can't imagine being in a position to see beautiful things all day long and to sell them to fancy people too Im sure." He found something to drink and Clairee smiled, tucking her curtain of hair behind one ear. "Looks like you're learning your way around the place already." She added encouragingly.

“I think it would be nice to be out in the country, away from the city. I could show you their shop one day if you’re interested.” Finding a pair of wine glasses in one of the cabinets, he poured them each a glass before taking a seat across from Clair on another counter. He would have sat next to her, but he had a better view of her wings from here, and was hopefully not in their way either. “I have a lot to learn, but thank you. Now if I may, a toast to the two of us. May we lead the guild to glory from this day forward.”
She accepted the glass and raised it for his toast. When she heard his toast, she raised an eyebrow too.
"To us, leading together? I'm happy to help, but Lasair, I'm not one of the leaders," she tipped her glass anyway in his direction in salute, then took a sip. "Mmmm! This is really good," she piped up after tasting it. Oh man, if her father only knew... she was sneaking off to the woods to a secret 'clubhouse' (putting it mildly) meeting with a guy, and drinking. DRINKING. If he even knew she was drinking now, he'd lock her up in the house for sure. If her brothers didn't get to doing it themselves first. For once in her life, she was glad to be the only Ander in the family. It gave her something wholly to herself, and that was as precious as it was rare.

“Well I don’t think I can lead alone, at least not yet. I guess I should have asked first though. Would you mind helping me with the guild until I’m better suited for the job?” He took a sip of the wine then, rather impressed with its flavor. The guild seemed to have high quality stuff here. “This is some good stuff. I wonder how long it’s been hiding in these cabinets,” he wondered aloud and took another sip. He was tempted to drink the whole bottle, but knew sharing it was a better use.
"You should probably be asking Danny that question, but nonetheless, I don't mind helping at all. It would be a pleasure." She grinned and took another sip, bigger this time, though she knew she should pace herself. It was still a wine, no matter how fruity it tasted. "I wonder how many people live/work here full time to keep a place like this stocked and clean." It was a good question in her opinion, and no doubt in her mind that such a staff existed. Somewhere. They were very good at staying out of sight though.

“If I run into him again I will ask. But until then, thank you kindly. It will be a pleasure to work with you and hardly work at all.” He took another sip and inspected the glass, along with its contents. “I was wondering about that myself. This isn’t common wine, but it is very good. I’m sure this place holds many secrets, like that book for example.” Leaning back, he turned his attention back to Clair. He was really enjoying this time with her, hoping it wouldn’t end any time soon. He was a bit disappointed in himself for not realizing a wonderful lady such as herself was right here at this own guild. Too much time had been lost because of his ignorance and he wasn't going to lose any more.

is drinking the ominous personality-altering-vine of the NE Vineyard (onaroll) //shot She nodded her agreement. It sounded like a good plan and like a reasonable assertion. "Maybe we should draw a map to all the rooms we find, and eventually, we'll have blueprints? 'Course we couldn't take it out of the building ever, or someone might find it and that would be risky. Dangerous. Bad for biz." She giggled.

“That is an excellent idea Clair. We could store it in the library by that fancy book you found.” He took another drink from his glass, emptying it. Reaching for the bottle, he gestured to Clairee’s own glass. “Refill?” he asked before tending to his glass.
Clairee beams at his praise, it was a pretty good idea huh? She nods her head and holds out her glass for a topup. "Should we start by mapping the kitchen, then mark the route to the library and expand out from there?" She furrowed and unfurrowed her wings, trying to get comfortable. she had to scoot to the edge and let the wings hang off the edge to sit up straight. Clair focused more on balancing her bum on the edge than balancing the glass, and she accidentally tipped it over before it could be filled.

“Whoa, on second thought, maybe we’ve had too much.” Lasair set the bottle down and reached over to take the glass from Clair’s hand, smiling in amusement as he did so. “Before we can start mapping out the place, we’ll need some paper and a pen. You had some back in the library, right?” He hopped off the counter and held his hand out to Clairee, offering her assistance if she wanted it.
"Oh." She looked down at the cup as it left her hand and he put it aside. "Uh yea I did. Yes, we can go back and get started if you would like," She accepted his help getting down, look at him being all nice and stuff... again. She smiled. Sure was nice to be treated nice. She let go of his hand and stretched on her toes. "Let's go before someone decides to put away my supplies, or we might never find them again."

“Okay, let’s head off then. I’m not sure if I know my way back, do you mind leading again?” He walked forward to hold the door open for her yet again and then offered his arm to her with a smile. If she was a little tipsy, his arm would be there as support.
