#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.

An ever shifting forest sounds like something out of a novel but I doubt it's the strangest thing here. What makes you believe you could find the same place, gut instinct?

[passio]

The woods usually lead us where we want to go, if we focus hard enough. It isn’t foolproof, but it’s something. It’s better than going in aimlessly.

I do wonder if it's not - for lack of better wording - pulling a fast one on us all. No-one goes in there without a reason or a purpose due to the nature of it. Where would it send someone who has no intent or direction to be taking?

I may just take a walk.

Please be careful, if you do. It might not let you back out.

[ dextera doesn’t know this man, even if he recognizes the hex code as possibly someone to watch out for, but he doesn’t think anyone deserves to get trapped in the woods. ]

It sounds like you're talking from experience when you say that. How many people here that are "visiting" have walked in there and never come out? I'm curious to know if there are numbers.

[passio]

I don’t think there are numbers. But we think that the former residents of the town might have all disappeared into the forest.

And lately, it seems like more and more people are ending up drawn to it.

[scourged]

Makes some kind of sense, but all that does is makes me curious to know what they thought they were seeing if they walked into there.

It doesn't make sense, but I do believe I'm starting to understand that this place making sense is never going to happen.

A few of us have wandered into the forest without even knowing or remembering it. It usually means we go “home” for a little while, but that doesn’t make any sense either.

I’m sorry I haven’t been helpful.

[scourged]

Going home and not remembering it? Or going there and not remembering this place? It all sounds so fanciful.

And no apologies needed, you have been more than helpful especially in humouring my many, many questions.

[passio]

Not remembering this place. It happened to me, once. I don’t even remember going into the forest. My sense of time here is still strange. I was gone for months, and yet only a few days passed here.

But I’ve still been here longer than most of the others by now. I want to do what I can.
