EVENT | ALL HALLOWED REDUX - RITUALISM
Characters: Any affected by the ghosting and Losses, their sponsors and nosy observers anyone else who feels like tagging along.
Date: January 11-12
Location: Keeliai
Situation: A moonlight ritual designed to restore lost balance and return Losses and unwanted gains back to a neutral state.
Warnings/Rating: Please indicate content warnings in subject headers as applicable.
The kedan messengers who had originally brought the information to the various Foreigners who'd been affected will return to those same suites on Friday evening. They will let them know to arrive with their sponsors at a quiet field area just to the south of Palace grounds on Saturday at sundown so that the "cleansing" can begin. They don't need to bring anything to aid in the ritual itself though it's advised that they might consider having a spare change of clothes on hand.
The next evening is bright and clear as though the weather itself wishes success upon this strange endeavor. The Foreigners making their way to the field as instructed by their kedan guides will find a large area cleared of snow, right down to the grass and dozens of round pools constructed of what appear to be interlocking stone blocks, so carefully and precisely arranged that they're able to hold water without leaking despite not using any standard mortar or sealant. Each pool stands about three feet tall and is filled three quarters of the way full of water which shimmers in the moonlight, bearing a very similar sheen that people will remember from the iridescent paint.
Does this bode well? Only time will tell.
OOC Information
See the OOC plotting post for event details and this post for assorted subheaders outlining various parts of the plot. If your character wants to learn more about the rituals or ask Milyn questions, she will be tagging in the Case Studies thread. Otherwise, feel free to use general affected kedan and their respective sponsors under normal rules for players writing NPC interactions. Feel free to start your own thread header if none suit, or make your own logs for various threadings... this is just for a central post for the event. Any questions can be directed HERE. Thank you!

But that thought leads to a very easy one on her end, for this part of the ritual.
"I think one of the best joys out there is, well. Friends. Realizing that you have them, realizing how awesome they are, just. Having them. Long-lasting joy, as well as shorter, more obvious joys, too." She gives Frank and Miles both a grin. "New friends totally count, too."

He doesn't really have anything else to add, so he glances at Miles to see what he says.

He rummages around in his pockets for something to break, and comes up with nothing. Then, getting an idea, he tugs at the drawstring on his sweatshirt using his enhanced spider strength, and rips it off. "Here," he says, offering it to Cassie. "Hopefully this counts."

She takes the sweatshirt without actual complaint, though, and tucks most of it under her arm to keep it from getting soaked as she works to re-thread the drawstring. After realizing she's... ah, taking her time, she gives them a bit of a smile, but focuses on the task at hand, instead, until the end of the string comes out the other hole, and she breathes out a sigh of relief. Carefully, she makes sure both ends of the string are even, and holds it up.
"Ta daaa!"
