hadriel_logs | Event Log: The Beach Episode

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...

[Margaery was trained from birth by her grandmother, but Tommen's spinelessness and Cersei's. . .everything weren't taken into account]

Thank you. I did what I could to influence Tommen into making wiser decisions, but he was too meek to see them through.

[Westeros was falling apart at the seams and it seems to Margaery that only Daenerys taking the Iron Throne for herself would begin to set things right]

He was. He created a monster out of a dying man to serve as Cersei's protector. He never removed his helm, but I could still see the blue skin and blood red eyes.

I'm sure you did the best you could under the circumstances, although they do sound terribly familiar. I do hope that means that one day your land will be stabalized.

[Gwynedd was certainly doing better than Westeros was at the moment. Hopefully it wouldn't take 200 years to sort them out and Daenerys would do her job well.]

That's horrid and unnatural and...

[Kelson shivered, remembering the spell placed on his father's corpse, tying his soul. He wouldn't wish that on anyone. That was very dark magic.]

Yes. I did the best I could. Charitable works and whatnot. Matters of policy, I was blocked by Cersei's council every time.

[Daenerys is a Targaryen, the line that united the Seven Kingdoms in the first place. the Tyrells fought on the Targaryen side during Robert's Rebellion. and Daenerys was born to rule, proving herself in Essos before returning to the land of her birth]

It was all of that and more. It had a sword that could cleave a horse's neck straight through. Even without its sword, it was strong enough to crush a man's skull with his hand. And it was utterly Cersei's creature.

[tying his soul? that sounds very unpleasant]

There is only so much you can do without the support of those around you, especially if your council is strong, and the king is not. Or unable to act. It happened in Gwynedd hundreds of years ago, if rumors are to be believed. Kings drugged senseless cannot argue with their council lords.

[Kelson shook his head.]

The creature sounds vile. I hope it was put down.

[she shakes her head] The council wasn't strong. What they were was utterly in Cersei's thrall and Tommen loved his mother too much to ever think ill of her. And kings drugged senseless in order to keep them compliant? How disgusting.

So far as I know, he still lives.

I pray your world knows the peace it so rightously deserves, one day. Even if you never get to see it.

I never will. I'll be elsewhere. Highgarden will go to whomever wins the spoils of war and the Tyrell name will fade from memory.
