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

The velvet leader nodded, somewhat impressed with how accurate the two boys were. They didn’t encompass everything, but that was to be expected. “That covers a lot of it yes, but there’s more. There’s always more.” He chuckled lightly and turned his gaze upwards, looking through the tree branches. “Protect the guild above all else. I meet, review, and either accept or deny new members as well. I plan things, trials for new members, events that the guild may otherwise be involved with. Research, too, as I ever want to uncover more information about the history us anders all share. I make sure the members follow the rules too—you were there when Ratna got in trouble. I didn’t like doing that, but it was something that needed to be done. Various things, whatever needs to be done. And among all of it I try to learn more magic too.” He scratched the back of his head for the moment, trying to think of anything he may have been forgetting.

"Wow..." The two said in sync as they looked on ahead of them. That was a lot that needed to be done, and the fact that Lasair was doing it all on his own... Wow...
"If you don't mind me asking, why have you gone for so long doing all that by yourself?" Emelo asked as he looked over to Lasair.
"Ya that seems like a lot for one person. I mean do get me wrong your doin' great an all, but man... Do you ever get a break?" Leo added, thinking about how exhausting all that must be on their leader.

“Doesn’t feel like that much to me,” Lasair chuckled again, amused with the way the twins were reacting. “There’s probably some miscellaneous things I’m forgetting too, but well, I do it because I’m the leader. Someone has to do it, else it’ll go undone. If nothing is happening around the guild, it’ll grow stale, inactive, members will stop seeing a reason to come and be a part of it. I don’t want that. I want my members here, enjoying themselves, being involved. So, even if I don’t exactly have anyone helping me, I push through and do it anyway, because if I don’t, who will?”
Walking on, he let silence settle in a little bit and then decided there was more to add as he realized a question was let unanswered. “I get a break whenever I decide to take one. But that isn’t often. And since I’ve moved into the HQ, I haven’t had much to do besides work for the guild. It’s my job yes, but it’s also my hobby, my passion. So I’m happy to devote hours upon hours into it.” And it was true. There were seldom times where he wanted to be anywhere else except sitting in the guild library among the books.

The two took in everything he said. Everything that was just spoken was true, but for some reason they never really realized that until now, yes they knew being a leader was a lot and meant doing things others didn't want to but still. What he said made more sense then ever and seemed to put things into perspective.
"You really have a good job then if you think of it so highly." Emelo said as he looked over to Lasair.
"Well technically isn't that what everyone strives for? A job that doesn't feel like one, or at least one that they really care for." Leo said as he thought that over a bit. That was something he heard from a lot of people, and for Lasair to have found it, that's points for him.
(Sorry that took so long December was cray cray for me.)

“Mhmm. That’s part of the reason why I’ve taken to doing so much work without a Second for so long. A lot of other people would be bogged down by the work, but I take it in strive. Yet, I am only human myself and I’m seeing how some assistance could be needed.” He shrugged as he walked, still rolling the idea over in his head. He wouldn’t expect a lot out of the twins if they really stepped up to the position, but even help in small ways would be nice.
