#030066 - A Report

[passio]

It’s been a long time. We have many new people here. My name is Dextera.

A few weeks ago, some others and I were able to defeat the powerful creature in the woods that Ryo discovered. When we kept walking after it, we found that the area beyond it was strangely calm and safe. It was a respite unlike anything I’ve ever seen that deep in the woods. We even saw one or two animals that were completely normal. If you’ve seen any of the usual animals from the woods before, you must understand how strange this is.

It was a small area, but it felt “right.”

The second update is that I recently came back from the woods again with Damian. Because the story from #FFFFFF keeps updating, I thought now was a good time to see if we could find any evidence of that man.

After a long time, and I’m sorry if we scared anyone by disappearing, we were able to find what we think were his bones, plus a locket with the picture of a beautiful man and a colorful feather inside of it.

That’s all. I hope everyone is well.

To reunite them... like bury them together? Or something else? We don’t know where the man from Ruga would be.

I’d like to bury them together. It depends on where the story goes. If he wandered into the forest, too, we can try to find his remains.

That's really kind of you, to do that for them.

[ ...Ah. That's not something she would have typed five hundred years ago. She wouldn't have thought it sweet or touching or kind; she would have thought it a waste of time, that it didn't matter now that the two were dead anyway, that burying them together wouldn't have their love connect them in any way since neither are alive to express it.

But now... but now she can see that there is meaning to it, that there is value. ]

Does the locket with the man's picture have any identifying traits? Like a ring? Or a necklace? [ She had found a burial mound in the woods a few months back; perhaps if there's something the man wore, she could identify his skeleton by it. ]

No. All I can say is that he was very handsome, but at this point, it might not help. We decided to leave the locket there, out of respect to the man that was buried with it.

[ a little too sentimental, maybe, but it was a good compromise considering that dextera took… other things. ]
