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...

"You mean like taking the fight to the Null? It's been suggested before and, yeah, they weren't that into it."

Of course, unless they do grab an army of mages or whatever, they'd be kinda screwed going up against them on their turf.

"At the end of the day, I think they're just scared. All of their choices seem to be playing it safe. Not saying that's a good thing, but it is what it is."

"It's boring," she sighs. "It's as if they don't even want to find out how to use their own tool better. The Door has so much potential and yet they still don't know how to use it, after - how long? Years, I've heard, right?"

As if being stuck here wasn't enough. Being imprisoned by creatures who run scared from a fight and who try to maintain things the way they are instead of taking risks just makes her endlessly miserable. If she were in their position there would be so many things she would do differently.

"But - I'm just complaining now. I know there's nothing more about it that you can do either." Naturally, given he's just some nonmagical human. He may as well be an insect.
