[EVENT] ONCE MORE TO THE OPEN SEA
Characters: ALL
Date: Throughout August
Location: Hatal from 1st-16th, Keeliai all month
Situation: With Tu Vishan once more awake, hurried preparations are made for the departure from the continent.
Warnings/Rating: Add warnings in subject headers as needed.
August starts much the same way as July ended, cold and stuck, but within a day or so a change is evident: at night, the bioluminescence of Tu Vishan's shell begins pulsing, in a bright, specific pattern.
Deciphered, the pattern counts down, pointing to the 16th. The citizens of Keeliai have that long to prepare, to finish their business and make any farewells they need to, before Tu Vishan resumes the itinerant lifestyle to which he was so long accustomed.
The waking of the turtle means, broadly, joy in the city, and also a bustling sense of busyness, as people who had grown comfortable in the patterns of Tavimbi-and-Keeliai find it's time to go their separate ways and rush to get affairs in order. For all that it's a departure, it's hopeful, coming as it does at a time when the state of the city is shifting as well, toward something perhaps more unified.
Tu Vishan is awake. The turtle moves.

A BUDDING GOVERNMENT
The jurisdiction of the council and how to go about actually running a government are still a little up in the air, but there’s lively discussion among those who are in support of the council.
Open
Dawei zi is a known name in Keeliai, especially in metalworker circles, although he's rarely made a point of being public before. Still, he approaches influential Kedan and foreigners alike across the city, including other council members, to discuss his new (assumed) role in the city council. Perhaps it's presumptive that he acts as if he's already on the council, but as far as he's concerned it's a done deal.
He pays a visit to the Welcome Center, and the in-progress hotel, and what remains of the shelter as well, as much to familiarize himself with the foreigners and what they've built (and lost) as anything.
