Who: Coven Members
Where: Coven Base Camp
When: Day 90
Open/Closed: OTA

You're not doing anything right now, right? Good. Genette's using some of the resources taken from Aimintas to create a little get together. Even if you do have something going on, she's not averse to using a little force to make the evening magical.

In fact, the magic is exactly how she's pulling this off. Genette is offering you to a little get together at the base camp, which may be all it takes for you to follow her. If not? Your hand is tethered (or some other part of you) quickly and you're led to the camp anyway. This is important, darn it!

What's so important? A little "party" of sorts. There's an assortment of foods, some of which have been hastily made since some groups have gone harvesting for new resources, and a large water basin that's acting as a punch bowl.

The true purpose of this little activity is a 'get to know you' exercise of sorts. Genette's got a glass container of a large quantity of Elto bones that can short-circuit the tethers, but the caveat is that you have to participate in a little, tethered sharing circle.

(It's honestly a good idea to know who you're stuck within your little makeshift coven, but Genette is the pushy sort when she sets her mind to something.)

The way to be released from your Elto shackles? Tell everyone your name, where you're from, your magic (seemingly left a little ambiguous) and something else about yourself. Discussions are encouraged! The more people know, the better!

After you're done sharing with the class, food and drink is yours to have -- or you can just run off, that's fine too.

OOC: Characters who would have absolutely nothing to do with this can of course escape, whether fleeing in the first place or using Elto bones of their own to circuit out their tether.

[There will be. Some staring. Why...? She knows about there being escort girls that help boost a guy's ego, but....they don't do anything else...other than steal your money and booze...right????]

......I wouldn't really know. I'm not...as experience about that sort of thing as you are....?

[Since she did mention not needing to do that with her not quite husbands.

Should they move along? They should move along!]

But, um, good to know that Robin fellow isn't cheating on you, per say. I really would've given him a piece of my mind! I still don't get it though. Are you really stuck with him until death?

I... don't have any experience either?

[Not really, anyways.]

I mean, we're not 'stuck'. We both made the choice to form the contract. That's like saying we're 'stuck' with Beech because he decided to keep the baby after the egg hatched.

[Oh. Welp. Nike will lower her head in apology.]

Sorry!

[About everything she said in the previous reply!]

The baby? Do you mean a palai child?

[So there were those who brought their assign child along?]

Why did you make that choice? On forming such a strong contract? Does it have anything to do with your powers?

Yeah, her name is Beech. She's a real cutie.

[Hakuno nods along.]

Something like that. He's one of the few people here with memories of the place I came from, and... he's saved me, before. I don't see a problem with putting my faith in him, for strength and protection.

I'd like to meet her sometime! My little girl is called Airis.

[There may be some blinking at her explanation because.....it was really not helping her not want to ship them and forever consider them husband and wife.]

...it's good to hear you have someone from home here. I'm really glad. Not many of us are as fortunate as you two are. [With a small smile.] Does that mean you created a contract together in this world?

I'll talk to him and seed if we can arrange a play-date.

[Gosh, that would be cute.]

Yes, we did. I made the offer as soon as we met here, but he took some time to think it over.

Please do! It'll be great to have her bond with others from her own kind. I don't want her to be too overly homesick.

[If she'll even remember her home world now that she made the decision to cling onto her just before Qri took them away.]

Oh, that's interesting. Good to hear he accepted though. What would've happen if he didn't?

We would have just not contracted, that's all.

[Robin probably wouldn't be happy if she talked about how powerless a Servant can be without a Master...]

Oh, that's good to hear. Does that mean you two can form a contract with anyone outside of your world?

[Somehow she was expecting it was necessary for them to form a contract, but if nothing happened, then she doesn't understand the need for it in the first place.]

Not... really. It's a little complicated.

[Servants and Masters, and all that.]

Let's just say we're each a special type of person. But, we're already contracted now, so the point's moot.

I see. I guess every world has its own set of rules.

[That was something Qri was slowly showing her.]

Oh, sorry, I just noticed you were talking about yourself and Robin this whole time. We should've been introducing ourselves and all that. Um, my name is Nike. It's nice to meet you....Hakuno, right?

That's right. Pleased to meet you, Nike. You look about my age... to think it's normal for me to be married, does that mean you are?

I hope so! If you're sixteen, then you aren't wrong.

[But at the mention of marriage, Nike will look a little troubled by it. Trying to find the correct way to word it all as.]

Not really. I'm not exactly married, but....I have someone who has been arranged to be. In the future. Once he's a little older. That is...if he doesn't believe I left to get out of it.

Would you have?

...it depends on a lot of factors. For one, it would be odd for him to disappear without a trace. He has a lot of enemies, so everyone -- including me -- would assume the worst.

[The church hates him, some of his guards hated him, and who knows if he had even more enemies due to having strong armed in becomming the "World King". She wouldn't be surprise if there were international groups after him as much as the local ones.

But if he one day disappeared, as much as she would be worried, there was naother feeling she would feel...]

I'd try to stay behind for as long as I can to help, but once I am requested to return home by my family, then I... [A sigh.] I will.

[She'll feel some form of relieve. Once she confirms he was completely gone, and not dead, anyway. Which makes her feel somewhat guilty to feel considering she doesn't want to return home.]

No, I meant, would you have left to get out of it?

No. I wouldn't be able to.

[Even though there was once a time that she wanted to.]

Then I'm sure he knows that as well.

...hopefully.

[Although there wasn't a lot of optimism over the thought, considering she knew him to be the type to easily abandon others once they leave his side, she does appreciate the thought all the same. A smile will form.]

Thanks. I needed this talk. About that. It's been the issue I've felt the most concern over...

Glad I could help.
