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

Elaine stared at the kitten on the man's shoulder for a moment. It wasn't Jay? Well, this was amusing. But before she could question it the little furball himself came around the with a fish held tightly in his jaws. Elaine laughed at Zona as she spoke out against the fish. "Oh, come on! Let him have it, I say he earned it." She smiled. Cas meanwhile had caught wind of the fish, and even though it wasn't his favorite, his ears still perked up in interest. The girl saw and quickly put a hand on his muzzle pushing his head down and averting his gaze. "Don't even think about it." She said crossing her arms and holding his glare as he looked back up at her. Their contest was disturbed as they both turned to look at who whistled. The officer escorting her home to begin with. "Actually he," She motioned to Kalum, "was walking me home since I was cutting it a little close. So I suppose it wouldn't be too much trouble if you came along. The more the merrier right?" Elaine glanced at the dark haired man questionably. If not all of them walking together then he could walk with her and the other officer could walk with Zona. She was beginning to get eager to be home, she was hungry and from the way Cas was staring at the fish, so was he.

"Like Hell I'll let him have it!" Zona said as she finally got the fish away from the cat, only to be greeted with a small hiss and a claw to the side of the neck, "Hey!" She scolded as the small cat backed away some, seeming as though he was sorry. Turning her head slightly she noticed to the dog looking at the fish. Tossing it over to the dog she then wiped her hands on the side of her pants, "He can have it! I don't want that thing near me..." Zona said as she began to itch her hand, "I'm highly allergic to that." She added as she looked down at her hand, only to see it turning red from the scratching. "dung..." Zona thought as she shoved her hand into her pocket she shrugged some at what the two said, "I can tag along with ya..." Zona said with another shrug as she walked up over and next to Elaine.

Kalum caught the girl's look and grunted in reply while lifting his shoulders in a subtle shrug. He didn't exactly oppose though having so many people around him that he didn't know was not something he was all too comfortable with, admittedly. Regardless, he had a job to complete and afterwards nodded to Elaine before looking to Zona as she stepped over to the brown haired girl. His eyes then fell on the other EIRAL member.

"Alright then." he said before moving into pace with the group as they began to walk along to wherever their homes were. "Ah, where are my manners this evening? With the furball commanding me, I seem to have misplaced them." chuckled Artorigus as the kitten on his shoulder sat there imperiously. "I'm Artorigus Pendrake. A pleasure to meet you all, although I wish it were under better circumstances." he said as they all walked.

"Don't give it to him, he is not eating raw fish." Elaine nudged the fish away from him with her boot. Cas tried to snap it out of her reach but bit down on the leather boot. He instantly released it licking his jaws to rid them of the strange taste. The girl smirked at him. At least the first officer seemed fine with her suggestion. 'He doesn't talk much.' She thought. His vocabulary probably consists mostly of grunts and growls.' Elaine turned her head to talk to Zona but Mister Pendrake spoke up first. "Oh, nice to meet you as well! Elaine Anncroft." The girl waved lightly at him before glancing down to make sure Cas was following them. He trotted at her feet quietly.

Of course the man would want to introduce himself, and Elaine was to polite to not say her name Zona just hoped she wouldn't ruin it for her by saying her actual name... "The names Kiravan." Zona said with a smile, after all since she and the EIRAL have always had problems its best for her if a fake name was the one they only knew. Turning some Zona looked over to Elaine "Don't blow this for me..." She thought with a smile as she took a step closer to her, giving her a slight look that said she would explain later, that is only if the girl didn't get her reasoning. Turning some Zona decided that turning the attention away from her would be the best. "So..." She began as she looked over to the man that had the bird and bow, "Whats your name? I mean I get they may know it, but I sadly don't, and would like to address you both properly." She said with yet another smile, this one lighter than the last.

The girl would be surprised to know the man knew an array of vocabulary... if he ever spoke up more than the primitive grunting and few words, but alas, that was not the case. As they took to their departure of the streets toward either girls' homes, Kalum continued his silence though inwardly sighed as formalities were made. However, he did not speak up until addressed by the woman with blue hair. "Kalum," he replied politely and made brief eye contact before returning his gaze onto the streets. "Where are your homes?"

Jasper had a decent view of the horizon from the roof where he was sitting. He watched as fiery red sky turned a mute hazel as the sun began to fall slowly. Normally, he would enjoy this beautiful view but now it filled him with a strange sense of dread. With the setting sun came the EIRAL "lawmen" to enforce their curfew.
If he had to guess, he'd say he had anywhere from ten minutes to half-an-hour, but he couldn't be sure. That meant he had less than that much time to find somewhere to hide until the patrolmen finally left. At the sound of footsteps and varying animal noises, Jasper dropped to a lying position to conceal his presence. Crawling to the edge of the building, the Ander recognized two familiar faces and the royal army uniform.
"What has she gotten herself into this time?" He whispered voicelessly to himself with the smallest shake of his head.
When he finally realized that his same haired companion was not in trouble, Jasper decided she might be his best option given the circumstances. The juggler moved as stealthily as he could to the nearest alleyway where he clamored down the wall cautiously before walking a few alleys down so that what he planned to do next looked more natural.
"Where’d you go? Where’d you go?" He called as he approached the group from behind moving with an unsteady, childish gait. He had raised the pitch of his voice much higher than normal, almost to the point that it squeaked.
"H-Hey, cousin," He called out to Zona before moving to her side, "we gotta get home before-" He stopped and looked up towards the grim looking officer with wide eyes. In an attempt to make himself look small, the shiny haired feline pulled his shoulders in and bent his knees slightly; he even went as far as grabbing Zona's arm and bringing his balled hand - careful to hide his sharp nails from the "lawmen" - to his mouth in mock fear. It was all an act, but he knew this was a performance he could afford to fail. He looked to Zona with eyes that said more than he could at that moment. Those childish eyes read, “I’ll explain later. Just go with it.”
He took a deep breath as if the man had truly startled him silent before speaking again, “we gotta go b-before we get in trouble.” He glanced over to the huntsman on last time before hiding his face in Zona’s shoulder, which his height made awkward despite shrinking himself.

Elaine gave Zona a look when she said her name was Kiravan but decided against asking. She just smiled and nodded. The first officer was Kalum, that was helpful. The girl looked up at him slightly just mentally putting face to name. "Mine is right around the corner there." The girl pointed down to the corner which she mentioned. Cas looked up as another person joined the little group. He growled at the blue haired man-kid. The canine couldn't decide which one he was. His growling made Elaine look as well to see Jasper. She waved at him, but she dropped it as he began his act. He was playing as Zona's cousin. Wow, she was an assassin but keeping track of fake names was not her thing. She kept silent but went to stand on her other side opposite of Jasper. They looked like quite the mismatched little group, well, Elaine was the only one different. (And the dog) Her hair was dark brown and curly. "Shall we go?" She asked smiling.

Zona watched as the blue haired boy ran up to her. The whole cousin thing came as a shock to her, though not completely far fetch, with the blue hair and all... Just as Zona was about to slap the boy for saying the two of them were related, she realized that may be a bad thing, he may give her real name out... "drat it..." Zona thought as a smirk came over her face, might as well play along then... "Cuz!!!" Zona called out as she flipped around and wrapped her arm around the boys neck, in a manner that they did this all the time, "What are you doing here?! I thought I told you to wait up at the house." She said with a bit of a tone in her voice, and a look in her eyes that said 'I'll kill you later'.
Spinning both herself and the boy around she gave her back the the two solders and Elaine for but a moment, just enough time to say something to Jasper but make it seem like the two of them were just messing around. As she spun around she brought the boys ear up to her mouth as she whispered to him, "The name is Kiravan, get it. No Zona here." She said with a bit of a stern force. As she spun back around Zona rose her hand up to the boys head and gave him a playful noggie, a bit harder than any normal person would but she wasn't exactly in the playful mood. Releasing the boy Zona straightened up as she looked at him with a kind face, all part of the act, "These nice men were just escorting us home! Since your here now you can join us back home then." She said with a smile and closed eyes, and a bit of sweetness to her voice, though if her eyes were open the hate and rage she had towards the boy would show.

"I was going to b-but uncle wanted me to find you. H-He seemed really upset." Jasper said, explaining his carefully formulated story with an equally conceived childish articulation. He took care to pronounce each word as if he had a loose hold on speaking and made doubly sure to place emotional emphasis on crucial points; carefully shying away as his statement came to a close.
He found himself in a headlock before he could offer any resistance. "Cousin, stop." He giggled, playing along with Zona's - Kiravan's - performance; in reality, the juggler was almost certain she was trying to kill him, especially when her knuckles practically drilled into his skull. He rubbed the sore spot his "cousin" caused through his hair but smiled when she suggested they go home. "O-Okay," he replied while he looked to the hunter at his side as if he was intimidated - an expression which held only half-truth.
