Event Log: The Beach Episode

[hadrielmods]

Who: Everyone!
What: The event log for the transition to our new planet!
Where: The city, which has now been fragmented onto four separate islands.
When: May 27th-June 10th
Warnings: Surf's up! If by 'surf', you mean separation from your friends, weird sea creatures, and cold rainfall.

The sun and the sand and a drink in your hand- well, it all sounded pretty nice when you voted for the island planet, but ultimately what you're getting is a bit less glamorous.

The transition takes place instantaneously, with very little noteworthy shakeup, though those of you who are particularly in-tune with the supernatural may feel a bit dizzied or nauseated by the sudden movement. And that's exactly what it is: for those of you who are outside, the change is fairly noticeable, as in the span of a single blink, what used to be miles of desert is now rocky ocean. The city is simply in one place one moment, and then somewhere entirely new a second later.

And that somewhere new is exciting! The islands have plenty of landscape to explore and weather conditions to adjust to, fish to catch, and- wait, how do you get to the other islands? What if your friends or your home or the bar is on these other islands? Enjoy having to figure out who is where and how you're going to get by with only a small fraction of the city to work off of- hopefully those boats will come sooner rather than later...

"I have heard that the Door has the ability to limit such powers. There are those here who normal could do such things as teleport or travel between worlds, but they also cannot go beyond the Door."

A hand rubs over his bearded chin in thought.

"Have you ever encountered such a thing in your world? Something that can curtail powers so dramatically?"

"On a smaller scale, curses may alter someone's abilities, but only for the particular individual who has been affected by that curse. On this scale? No things, but certain powerful individuals can hold such power over travel to and from, or within, their own domains."

Actually, Caedra realizes she's very familiar with a specific example, but she hadn't thought of it in this light until Semiyon brought it up so helpfully.

"My home, for example. Anyone wishing to travel to the domain in which I reside will end up within a certain large domed cage outside the City of Rust, regardless of where they wanted to go. Once there, they are trapped there until they are released by the guard."
