[MEMO: OPEN TO ALL] ==> PROSPIT DREAMERS: FIND THE LOST NOTES

[defensivealchemist]

==> Durian: Dream and report on your findings.

You can't report on your findings when you haven't found anything!

==> Durian: Dream, find those notes and convey the information to the others.

That order is too complicated to complete in one cut. You'll need to divide it into TWO COMMANDS. You should probably also include any other available players in your command.

==> Prospit dreamers: Dream and search for the Lost Notes

According to Kappy, people join the game in an entry chain. You are not next in line. You're not sure how long it will take before you get in. Sitting at your computer and talking in that memo is interesting and fulfilling, but it doesn't block out the sound of meteors echoing outside. Now that you know what the sound is, you find yourself feeling unsettled. Possibly even nervous.

After a while you close the memo, set the device to charging, and hunt down the previous owner's recuperacoon. It's a pity that the troll who lived here died; from their hive's design and their stuff, you had enough in common that you could have enjoyed talking with them. You put those thoughts out of your mind as you climb into the sopor, and try to focus on the GOLDEN MOON. Hopefully the influence of the sopor will contribute to whatever gave you that previous dream.

It seems to help. Minutes or hours later, you fall asleep and wake in the golden tower, the same one you encountered Zirreh in.



==> Durian: Report the information to the others.

[bizango]

No I'M IN A DESERT
THERE'S A LoT OF SAND??
IT'S HoT

You are lost in a physical sense where as your host is lost in a mental and emotional sense. You give yourself a pat on the back for remembering to make this distinction. You're really great if you do say so yourself.

[apiarycryptonaut]

Wh4t do you like?

[bizango]

LoTS oF THINGS!!
NoT PUZZLES

You ponder a moment... or five, distracted by a swirl of sand a little ways from you. And then, suddenly, you know exactly what you want!

I'D LIKE A KISS!

[apiarycryptonaut]

You stare at the screen for a few moments, just blinking. It's not that you're at all bothered by the action, you don't really know why anyone would want a kiss anyway. You're more wondering how.

Ok4y? But how do... I send one of... those to you, m4ybe?

[bizango]

You don't know why you'd want one either. You don't know why you do a lot of things, really.

WHEN WE MEET
IF WE MEET
THEN!!!

[apiarycryptonaut]

Oh well um will... you help find K4lfour... before then, m4ybe, ple4se?

Re4lly, you c4n, yes?
Ple4se find him, yes!
Th4nk you, Silly-o-nigm4, re4lly!

[bizango]

ooooooooKAAAAAAAAAY

...and you proceed to not come back while you tear your way through your collective headspace, despite numerous, increasingly violent protests from the others. You have a task to do and it is, for once, a fun task!! Nothing's gonna stop you now!

[apiarycryptonaut]

You're not sure how Silly-o-nigma's going to go find Kalfour, but you suppose just sitting here waiting is a good idea. Good thing you've got puzzles to keep you entertained for however long it takes!

[bizango]

Well she'll be waiting quite awhile then. Very nearly an hour in fact. But eventually the window flickers to life again on the other side.

i'm

Awake. Which is the thing you least want to be. But there's something... someone? holding you here now. You blearily watch the window in front of you, confused, wondering why your head hurts so bad.

[apiarycryptonaut]

You'd honestly started to wonder how long it could take, especially after you'd finished several patterns on your rubick's cube's surfaces. The one word, though, pulls your attention right back to the screen.

Oh, hello K4lfour, yes?
Welcome b4ck, I think!

[bizango]

It takes you awhile to focus again, minutes slipping you by before your eye catches on the words... Impossible words.

What do you mean?

You must be dead, right? That color is from before the meteors, before everything... Mm. You try to retreat again, but you are pressed back into place.

[apiarycryptonaut]

4bout the welcome b4ck?
You were missing, yes!
I don't know why... but um 4re you... ok4y, mostly, m4ybe, yes?
You don't h4ve to... be missing, no, you're... found 4nd s4fe, I... hope I think, yes.
