[OPEN] ==> Nikkal: Deliberate.

You're not entirely sure what you should do.



It took you a LONG TIME, but you did it - you finally found your SECOND GATE. You'd actually seen it quite some time ago, but it had been hovering over a rather large plateau, and it had taken you a while to climb it. You'd been flanked by a small gathering of your CONSORTS the entire time, and as you drew closer to the GATE, they'd began to chirp excitedly: "the WITCH did it! the WITCH did it!"

And now you're here. You'd found out during your travels on LOSAS that your SECOND GATE would take you to your SERVER PLAYER'S HIVE. And while part of you is quite EXCITED to go through it because that means you'd get to see Bharal, another part of you is very CONFLICTED. Because you'd said that as soon as you were able to, you would go retrieve your MATESPRIT. And if you went through the GATE now, there's no telling how long it would take for you to find Komesh. Of course, since you're his SERVER PLAYER, you know that his SECOND GATE would lead him to YOUR HIVE.

You stare up at the GATE as you debate with yourself. Your CONSORTS hop alongside you, chirping wildly in encouragement, but your thoughts are drowning them out. You could easily launch yourself through the gate with your MOON SHOES, but the question is... do you really want to right now?

You more or less have two options:
a) Go through the GATE and meet up with Bharal, and reconnect with Komesh later,
or b) return to your HIVE, wait for Komesh to arrive there, and then go through your SECOND GATE together.

You haven't really spoken with either of them in quite some time. Maybe it would be better to discuss your options before deciding on anything.

It's been a bit since you've checked in with NIKKAL.

It's not that you're WORRIED, hell no. She's just one of the more tolerable trolls playing this game along with you. Somehow you don't find the QUIRK insufferable at all!

Nikkal! ~~CS
How are you faring? ~~CS

Well this is embarrassing.

Head start or not, NIKKAL of all trolls got to her SECOND GATE before you've even reached your FIRST GATE?

Second? ~~CS
Good show! ~~CS
What exactly is stopping you, then? ~~CS
Particularly nasty boss you need help with? ~~CS

Ah, coordinated movement? ~~CS
An excellent plan! ~~CS
~We're~ still not entirely sure where some of these gates will lead ~us~ and all. ~~CS
~I~ mean, there is a suspected pattern, sure, but whether or not the game feels like playing along, well... ~~CS

Hm. ~~CS
A prudent decision! ~~CS
~I~ am both surprised and impressed... ~~CS
~I'm~ about to head through a gate, myself, though ~I'm~ fairly confident that it seems in normal working order. ~~CS
Is there anything obviously odd about your next gate? ~~CS

Well ~I~ can't imagine that it's too horrible. ~~CS
He's still playing, yes? ~~CS

[personal profile] callouslystalwart 2013-02-23 03:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Well there you go. ~~CS
If it's so excellent that he can't even spare a minute from exploring, how scary could it really be? ~~CS

[personal profile] callouslystalwart 2013-03-01 11:24 pm (UTC)(link)
And you've been trolling him? ~~CS
Or he just hasn't messaged you first? ~~CS

Crystals? ~~CS
Some part of a quest from your consorts, ~I~ assume? ~~CS

Interesting... ~~CS
Has the lightning ever struck any imps? ~~CS

[personal profile] callouslystalwart 2013-03-03 07:41 am (UTC)(link)
Damn. ~~CS
~I~ was hoping ~we~ could set up some sort of mob grinder... ~~CS
Ah well. ~~CS
So your consorts are safe for the moment, then? ~~CS

[personal profile] callouslystalwart 2013-03-06 04:52 am (UTC)(link)
Not that ~I'd~ normally put much of any faith in their prattle, but... ~~CS
What opinion do your consorts have on staying versus moving on? ~~CS
Game constructs should at least have some idea of how to pace player progression. ~~CS

[personal profile] callouslystalwart 2013-03-10 04:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Fair enough. ~~CS
~I~ still think ~we~ should all be traveling in groups anyhow. ~~CS
Too many players have simply "vanished". ~~CS
In a party system ~we~ can at least get a report first. ~~CS

~I'll~ let you get back to that, then. ~~CS
Just checking in and all that. ~~CS
~I've~ got ~my~ own adventures to be worrying about! ~~CS
