WEEK 2 MINGLE - ARTEMISIA

[foundationmods]

Things had changed so rapidly in the past few days.

The loss of two of them hung over like a shroud, made even worse by the fact that an innocent person had been executed.

Was this....how the rest of the game was going to go...?🗈

....Even if it was, there wasn't much they could do now. Yuuko herself hasn't shown up in public since the trial, and while some have talked to her, she's been...subdued.

Did the trial hurt her just as much as them?

Regardless, the island is still beautiful, if deadly. Summer continues, beaming down on all of them, the waves of the sea warm and inviting.

But even if things look bleak...

They have something in their hands that will soon lead to the Truth, and the heart of this matter.

And in the air...lies a heavy sense that everything is about to change.

I'm not scared of them.

[it's not the answer he was probably expecting.]

I've been unlucky enough to actually fight "god" in my life. If these things aren't even that, then we can handle it.

Anyway, this still has to be some clue to "Yuuko," doesn't it?

[improbablenotimpossible]

[That actually gets a half-smile]

Just be cautious, we are at a disadvantage here. And I am not sure how good of a clue it would be, the 72 demons are a common motif among those involved with the occult.

Well.. there were only a little over 20 of us, so they can't summon all of the pillars. But who she chooses to summon is important.

She's making a statement about her intent with our deaths in as direct a way as anything else, isn't she?

[improbablenotimpossible]

Yes, while many demons do have overlapping roles, almost all of them have a very specific motif or skill.

[That much he can confirm]

[fullbodied]

What is Vinea's motif?

[she rolls her r's for this, she's practicing that affected accent ok]

[improbablenotimpossible]

[Could use some work, but he should see the effort put into it. It takes him a few moments to turn over the information in his head]

Vinea... is said to command storms, and can steal souls without requiring permission.

[fullbodied]

[at least he's kind enough to not give her feedback right then and there.

Because she turns serious again at that.]

Storms and soul stealing, huh...? [a glance at Karen.]
