Event | Landfall | Diving & Sinbrilee
Characters: Any and every!
Date: August 10th - 31, 2013
Location: The sunken city of Sinbrilee
Situation: Tu Vishan comes upon the oceanfloor, holding his own memorial to the fall of his sister turtle while those upon his shell may explore the ruined city.
Warnings/Rating: Please place content warnings in subject headers!
Sinbrilee | Dreaming | Death
Art by Rica.
The city is lit by a warm orange glow, there are thousands of lanterns lit and burning brightly to ward off the gathering dark. It was once a grand, thriving place, and it's obvious by the quality of the Greco-Roman architecture, the high sweeping columns of white marble, the beautifully paved roads. There are aqueducts throughout the city that look as if they could be put to use today. In fact, if it weren't for the fact that the city's spent the last few hundred years underwater, it looks quite liveable. This city is entirely open to exploration, so feel free to send your character out to their heart's content. Remember, certain doorways will lead your characters into either Death or the Dreaming and these markings won't always be visible to them, so they should take care and be vigilant at all times!
Note: A separate post will be made for the events of the Bacchanal later in the month.

Is it strange? Scavenging parties aren't unusual in Atlantis. We might as well make use of some of the things the surface dumps into our kingdom.
no subject
It's a little strange? I can imagine it's much more common in Atlantis. On the surface you can usually find someone who will declare this all their property, or that we're disrespecting the dead by taking it. Salvage rights only really apply to things that end up in your kingdom.
[Which doesn't make all that much sense, now she thinks of it.]
no subject
You all have funny notions of 'property' and 'disrespecting the dead'. [He lightly touches a water-rotted reed basket on a stall table, ends up scooping a couple of coins out of it.] It's more disrespectful not to try to preserve at least parts of a people's history and culture, to let them be forgotten.
Besides, it's best to check places thoroughly in this world. Someone found my trident in a junk shop in Atamsichar, the last time the turtle visited the mainland.
no subject
[GAWSH, Arthur. You'd think that surfacers had a history of winding up the Atlantean with their weird surfacer humor or something.
Okay, maybe he has a point, but she's too busy remembering what Sin said about their custom of burying or cremating their dead. "You all are very fierce people, to do this to your friends." She smiles warmly with the memory, yet still has to turn away from him so he won't see her wipe away a tear. God, she misses Sin.]
Sometimes there's no accounting for what a culture will consider disrespectful...
[She had planned to say something more, but her attention is caught the sight of something red behind a pillar, and she instantly forgets where she was going with the sentence.]
no subject
But then she's turning away for a moment and he frowns a little as she trails off.] Did I say something wrong? [And then she's looking at... something, and he tilts his head slightly, his gaze following hers.] Find something?
no subject
Well, for one thing you seem to have manifested an all new power of summoning through irony.
[It's a punching bag, designed to be hung from a ceiling but now propped up vertically against the pillar as if someone just put it down for a second. Dinah crouches beside it, staring.]
no subject
Seems like an odd thing to be here...
no subject
It's Ted's.
[She means: it's hers. No sooner has she said it, however, but she's looking up at Arthur, blinking at him.]
His penny?
no subject
Is it really? I've never figured out how things of ours show up in this world, in places that aren't even Keeliai.
no subject
No question about it. I know some of these bumps as well as my own hands. I learned to box on this old thing.
no subject
I'd say it might just be a good copy, but I've seen things show up in this world that would be... very difficult to copy. [Like his trident. Like the Atlantis Chronicles.] Need help taking it back to Keeliai?
no subject
[She stands up and pulls on the bag to heave it into an upright position, feeling its weight.]
Do you mind? I don't think I could carry it on my own.
no subject
I don't mind. Here, trade. [He takes his trident and his bag, both much more lightweight, from his back to hand to Dinah (so the sharp golden prongs of the trident won't tear any more holes into the rather beat-up bag). Then he wraps an arm around it and hefts it up easily onto his shoulder. He's no Superman, but Atlantean strength is more than sufficient up on the surface.]
no subject
Having superpowered friends never stops coming in useful.]
Now I'm relieved I never got around to ordering a custom made new bag for my apartment.
no subject
You sure you won't still need one anyway? [A light chuckle.] It's pretty beat up.
no subject
It's put up with two decades of my fists, not to mention who knows how long under Ted's treatment. It can last a while longer.
no subject
Does it work to end this here?
[She grins at him, bright and fond, and nudges his arm with an elbow affectionately on their way out. Suddenly having that link to home has made the whole place better, and she can't wait to get it hung in her suite.]
