SCENARIOS

01. Arrival

You have been sitting and staring at the sign above you for some time now, lost in a blur of swirling questions that seems to start with how you ended up there; in a place (and time, maybe) that you know you weren't an hour earlier. Or maybe you're an old hand at this by now and you've figured out that this is simply another stop that the multiverse bus has made. So why not get off and look around a little?

At any rate, the sign points you towards the direction of a place called "Gazin", which looks like a decent-sized town from where you stand. There has to be someone who can explain.

02. Around Town

So, you've settled in. Well, mostly. At least you know where things are without taking too many wrong turns and ending up in the less desirable areas of town. But now you can go about your day. Visit the market, check out the local shops or have a drink with a new friend at one of several inns.

03. Exploring

You've heard people talk about some pretty interesting places and now you're itching to get out and find them. Be careful though, there are creatures and monsters out there that will be pretty interested in meeting you and may wish to have you for its next meal. Better take someone along. And maybe some weapons, too. Make sure one is made of silver.

04. Monsters

So, you managed to find that location you were looking for. Good for you! Only.. it seems you've also found one of the native creatures to the area and you now face to face with it. Um. Good luck! We'll see you when you get back!

Hopefully.

05. Celebration

It won't take long for you to figure out that people of Gazin are, all in all, pretty happy people. It shows, too, when a seemingly quiet evening suddenly bursts into a random, impromptu party to celebrate whatever good fortune has touched a person. Name Days, good harvests, betrothals, weddings, or just life in general.

Sing, dance, drink and be happy, too!

06. Wild Card!

2 I'm so sorry

The last time he had seen Cassanadra, it had been right after they had returned from their defeating Vecna. He'd barely stepped foot inside before that fool had done what Vex had been worried about. Grog had pulled a card, the wrong card, from that confounded deck. and then they were off again. No chance to take a breath, no chance to really handle their injuries and their losses. It had been over, finally. He had finally been about to take his place, remove the burden from his sister and then they were off again, to find their way to Pandemonium to get back the soul of their Goliath friend.

Now, he is here in this strange place. He's here without his guns, without Vex or anyone useful. Hell, he'd even except Scanlan right now, but Percy had been alone. Alone until he had seen her. He sees her and as always, there's a small spike of guilt that he doesn't acknowledge. For leaving her behind, again, to deal with Whitestone while he ran off to save the world. Instead, he sweeps to where she's at. Where the plants seem to bloom like she's been taking pointers from Keyleth.

"A far cry from snowdrops, but pretty none the less."

[OOC: I am SO SORRY. So uh... due to things that happened in a previous game that I’m taking her from (she’s CRAU from Fasti and City of Sin)... her relationship with Percy has been heavily damaged. It’s totally fixable! And I want to because de Rolo sibling shenanigans are my favourite things in the world. But uh... it’s going to take some work because she kind of doesn’t trust him at ALL and believes that he doesn’t love her/consider her his sister anymore.]

Cassandra goes very, very still at the sound of her brother’s voice. She hasn’t heard it since... Rome. Since he’d somehow found a way to abandon her yet again without going anywhere at all. Since she’d come to the realisation, through his actions, of how little she mattered to him. (Before Rome had been the Chroma Conclave, of course, but that seemed a lifetime ago. A war against the Titans ago. Two worlds ago.)

And now he’s here. Again. Her stomach twists and her heart aches for the brother she had known. She misses him. Despite everything, despite his having made it perfectly clear in Rome how he feels about her, what he thinks of her (he thinks nothing at all of her, she merits nothing from him, no love, no concern. Nothing), she still... misses him. More the fool her, she supposes.

She’s cool and composed when she finally turns to face him. When she finally sees him again, sees him for the first time since his arrival so long ago in Rome. (Pelor, she misses Daud. How she wishes he were here with her.) “I don’t know,” she says quietly. “I think poppies are prettier.” Part of that is because they’re the symbol of Ceres. And despite her... complicated feelings regarding gods and goddesses as a whole, Ceres wasn’t a bad one. (She’d given her an escape from Whitestone. Sent her to a place that had come to feel like home. Helped her find her way. Led her to making friends. Of her own, not just her brother’s.)

A slight smile crosses her lips, because she is proud of her abilities, and under her touch a poppy blossoms from a small green sprout to a hale, hardy flower in only moments. She brushes her fingertips against the petals before looking up at him again. She's going to have to get used to this. Seeing him. Occasionally. For however long the both of them find themselves here. Although there's always the possibility of adventuring. Exploring this new world she's calling home for the time being. And she would do that anyway, not simply to avoid Percy.

"How long have you been here?"
