To my fellow Blues,
The bird and the post from the mysterious #FFFFFF pose a difficult task to us. Food of various sort has been appearing in my home, and I am sure in your homes as well. However the bird warns us not to indulge. Going without food can be a struggle if you have never fasted before, and so I offer this helpful advice.
1. Remove all food from your premises, or hide it in a place you cannot see. Removing yourself from temptation will make it easier for you to cope with it. Alternatively, dispose of it entirely. Burning it would be a start, but avoid inhaling any smells that may come with it.
2. Stay hydrated. The bird does not seem to react to drinking water, so it does not qualify under the quest. You don't need to eat as much as you need to drink.
3. Prayer and meditation will help cleanse your mind of pervasive thoughts. Isolate yourself in normalized temperatures. If you need assistance on mindful techniques, I will be available.
4. Commit yourself. A strong will can resist temptation.
If not eating can cause you physical ill, then do not make your body worse and avoid taking part in the quest. Children, elderly and the ill should not engage in fasting. No one is frowned upon for not partaking when they know their limitations and aware that their body will not accept the rigor with the same resilience as healthy individuals. The rest of us should make our best attempt to succeed however.
And if you find this quest difficult, please let me know. I will be more than willing to keep you in the right state of mind. Disicipline is the key to our victory. I extend the same courtesy to Reds and Yellows who need help as well, as I assume you have your own tasks.
Sincerely,
Zelda

Thank you for doing this. It's really helpful. I didn't really know any of this.
I think this will be a pretty tough quest, but I'll try to stick it out... it's kind of weird, though. It's so different from the other quests.

It is surprisingly a challenge. The quests I saw listed when I arrived here seemed so very simple in comparison to this one. I suppose they wanted to give us something harder.
no subject
That was a lot more difficult than the others, too.
[That all said...]
The ancient ones?

I see... I'm not familiar with them, but I'm glad that you have them. I feel like faith can carry people through a lot of difficult times.
[It's really valuable, that way.]

If you ever need anything, Zelda-san, please let me know. We're the same color, so we're dealing with the same things. I'll help however I can too.

Sorry, that was rude. I was getting so used to everyone picking up everyone else's colors.
[And then new people arrived.]
My name is Minato. It's nice to meet you, even over the forum.
