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

"Hmm... Figures it would be like that..." Zona said with a light sigh, "I just didn't know if you got any special privileges like that with him, you two seem kinda' close." Zona said as she kept walking. The two seemed to have known each other for years, and they seemed to have a strong relationship between one another, but then again knowing someone like the other could come in handy in bad situations. "That completely slipped my mind... I guess since its and arm for Eryn the thought never even crossed my mind." Zona added as Edel mentioned something about the clockwork dolls and Eryn's arm, and how it could look kind of like that. "Guess we will just have to wait and see until we get there."

Hearing those first comments, the redhead couldn't help but laugh and shake her head. "Depends on what kind of 'privileges' you're referring to, but if you mean 'are we going to get my leg for free?' unfortunately the answer is 'no'. Business and relationships do not mix."
Well, they were almost there again anyway. So Zona wouldn't have to wait much longer.

"Well ya never really know how that works after all, it is different for everyone..." Zona said as she thought back to something that happened long ago, or at least seemed to. Shaking the thought from her head she looked up some, "Isn't his place just up ahead?" Zona asked, hoping she remembered the spot of where the shop was located, "Then again I could be thinking of something else..." She added, unsure of herself.

"No, you're right. It's right ahead." She chuckled. It wasn't all that much of a distant to cross when people going there chatted on the way. So Edelweiss just held the door open again, let Zona pass, and entered the shop after her.

Zona nodded slightly in signs of thanks as she stepped in though the door and began to look around. "Hey anyone home?" Zona asked as she noticed no one was out and about. After taking a few more steps in she looked around a bit more noticing not much seemed to be changed and her spot on the counter was still clear from a few days ago. Walking over to it, Zona decided to make herself comfortable, so she jumped up on it and just sat there and looked around a bit. She was going to sit there anyway so might as well do it sooner than later.

"Making yourself at home already I see," Amon said upon seeing Zona propped on his counter as he came out of the back room, carrying with him a long box.
"Tis fine. So, ready?" he asked as he set the box down on the counter, ready to surprise them with its contents.

"Lets just make this official - your counter is a strangely cozy seat." Edelweiss snickered, lifting a hand in a still would-be-wave greeting when Amon popped up from the backroom. "She's been ready the whole way already (and trying to squeeze clues on what it looks like from me)."

"Hey," Zona shrugged as Amon walked in, "I was going to sit here anyway, might as well do it now rather than later." She said as she leaned back some taking up a bit more of the counter, only to stop and look over some as Amon placed a box on the counter. She perked up some as she had a feeling she knew what was in said box, "Oh... Is that what I think it is?!" She questioned with a smile on her face ready to see what the box held inside.

"...Maybe..." Amon said, raising an eyebrow before opening the lid to the case. Inside was a simple metal doll leg, though with only half of a thigh that ended with a series of straps and a cushioned inside instead of working gears.
"Well? Why don't you try it out?" he asked, offering the leg to Zona.

"Wow..." Zona said as she stared at the leg. It was so shiny and new, and if not for the fact that it was made of metal it would have looked just like an actual leg that was just really smooth... Zona smiled some as she stared at the thing and ran her hand over it, "Let's give this thing a try!" Zona said with a smile as she moved over some and propped up her stump of a leg. She would have put it on herself but she had no clue how to and didn't want to put it on wrong. She was hesitant for just a moment as she looked the leg over and removed her hand, "It's not going to go boom half way through this walk though will it?" Zona asked having a feeling she would be good, but still a bit unsure.

Edelweiss had figured for the most part she'd just stand there and watch how this 'test drive' for Zona's leg goes, just a distant tiny smile on the corner of her lips, but hearing the blue-haired gal's last comment she couldn't help but laugh.
"I doubt it will." Eryn's arm certainly did not explode on her, and neither the redhead's gear box ever exploded on her hands either, so it should be all good in that sense. "Remember to take it easy still, though. You're still not... 100% fully healed, you know." Zona might think she is, but the redhead wasn't so sure. It had been just a couple weeks since the event, it wasn't long enough for fully recovering from a major wound like that and once the girl has to put pressure on the severed limb again to stand up on her feet and walk... Edelweiss wasn't sure if this would be a fully painless experience. It was (albeit not the only one, along with curiosity and other things) one of the reasons why she was still there rather than just guiding Zona to the shop and leaving. Just in case anything happens...

Amon rolled his eye at the explosion comment. "I think you'll live...but you may need to use those crutches for a while longer...no one is going to relearn how to walk in just a few hours," he said as he placed the leg over Zona's stump, grunting a bit as he wrapped and tightened the straps.
"There we go...not too tight...nice and snug," he said as he finished. "Ready?" he asked, holding out his human hand for support.

Zona watched as Amon placed the fake leg on her stump, if not for the fact that she couldn't feel it and that it was metal, the thing looked just like her other leg. Taking a breath she nodded some at what Amon said, both for if she was ready and if it was tight enough. Zona gently hopped down from the counter, making sure all her weight was on her good leg, and keeping the other off the ground, and being the stubborn person that she was she left Amon's hand alone. She would rather fall flat on her face than except help. Taking one more deep breath Zona pushed herself forward some and placed the fake leg on the ground, placing some of her weight on her the stump. She cringed some as the pain grew in her leg, "Nnnggghhh....." She grunted some as she tired to place all her weight on it, in an attempt to walk forward.
A sad attempt at that, as the pain shot up and radiated though out her leg and right side of her body, "dung." She cursed as she stumbled back some, and ended up gabbing Amon's hand using it as a support. "drat that hurt..." She mumbled to herself as she used her free hand to rub her stump of a leg.

"That's why you should take it easy..." Edelweiss commented with a bit of a sigh as Zona cursed and mumbled about pain. Well, at least the blue-haired gal did not in fact fall flat on her face; that was a possibility too while trying to relearn walking with a fake limb.
The redhead reached out both her own hands, but without leaving her spot standing close to the wall. Like a much more strange version of one of those scenes where a toddler is wobble-walking from one parent to another. "Here, take it slow and see if you can reach me."
"I know I padded the inside of that thing, but it's going to take some time to get used to," Amon replied, helping to keep Zona balanced.
"There is no shame in continuing to use your crutches...at least until your leg heals more and you get used to walking," he continued, reaching over to grab and hand over her crutches.
