EVENT | LANDFALL | VALISHAERA

[ironwood]

Characters: ALL!
Date: JULY 13-26
Location: Valishaera
Situation: Tu Vishan has made landfall on Siaxhi, to explore the Dreaming Watch City of Valishaera.
Warnings/Rating: Please indicate content warnings in subject headers as applicable.

As Tu Vishan draws near, the heavy jungle visible even from miles out quickly identifies the landmass as Siaxhi, one of the westernmost continents in Konryu and one that has been largely untouched insofar as the kedan themselves have gone. There is a natural inlet along the southeast shore on the continent and Tu Vishan makes for that, though he fills nearly all of it.

I have.

Not here, here...at least, I don't think? But a realm similar to this one/

[peacefullywreathed]

"I appreciate that," Solomon said ever-so-dryly, "but I thought that this particular experiment might be of interest to you." Leaving aside the fact that Solomon could have used the backup on the merits of backup alone, Bakura had more control of the khajbit than Solomon did. He had, after all, only possessed it for a handful of days.

But he wasn't inclined to mention that just yet. "I want to see if I can tie together an intersection of Death, Life, Dreaming and the khajbit," he said, "and see if I can summon things through it. Things such as the missing parts of a person's being."

[fearlessherosheart]

What was this realm?

[unetrustworthy]

What, reading?

How can reading be tiring?

[She clearly wasn't thinking of the concept of a bedtime story.]

[gathersnomoss]

If you do anything for hours on end, it can be tiring.

[backwordscompatible]

There were two. A Death Realm, and a Dream Realm. But not like this one.

[Again, she can only suppose.]

It was a little more literal. Each realm basically took you into this dream-like world. Or nightmare. Only then, we didn't really know we were dreaming unless somebody else pulled us out of it.

[She'd had to do that very thing to poor Jack, who had been so happy. To this day, the guilt over destroying his precious illusion continued to haunt her, even though it had been necessary.]

[fearlessherosheart]

This area is supposed to be linked to the Dreaming Realm.

[unetrustworthy]

If you do anything for hours on end, you'll get a little tired, sure.

But don't you think the idea of getting to learn more about this place isn't worth staying awake for?

[gathersnomoss]

Yes. I just need to pace myself better.

[backwordscompatible]

Yeah, I know.

But it still has a different feel to it. I don't know...it's hard to explain, exactly.

[unetrustworthy]

If you're wasting all your time forgetting everything you've learned?

That might be best.

[fearlessherosheart]

"That the feelings are similar but not the same will suffice."

[gathersnomoss]

That and get something to take notes on.

[backwordscompatible]

...I'm sorry?

[That sounded like a reference of some kind.]

[unetrustworthy]

There must be some paper somewhere. It's a library.

[fearlessherosheart]

merely, it can be difficult to describe sensations to one who has not felt them.

[gathersnomoss]

Paper or something. That's not in use as books.

[unetrustworthy]

I've seen stranger things in this world.

[backwordscompatible]

Oh, right. That's true.

Usually, I'm a little bit better about that sort of thing. [She'd grown used to having to explain certain auras to those without magic] But this time...it's a little above and beyond my expertise.

[gathersnomoss]

Yes, but I'll stick to paper and pencil. I understand those.

[fearlessherosheart]

It is something I have had to consider as well. Few of my friends from my home are sorcerers.

[unetrustworthy]

[Sometimes, the simplest solution can be the best.]

Compared to what? A computer?

[backwordscompatible]

In other words, they probably wouldn't be much help either.

Unless, by "not sorcerer" one of them happens to be a dreamwalker or something along those lines.

"If connecting all three with the Shadow Realm were so easy, do you really think I'd still on this Sutekh-damned turtle?" Bakura responded. "For the whole speech about Keeliai being in between 'Life, Death and Dreaming', it's still only on one plane. Opening the khajbit there gives you the shadow of the Life, opening one in the Dreaming, a shadow of Dreaming. I didn't join that happy little venture to Kithika in Death but I've no doubt it'd be true there as well. My guess is you'd have to find something representative to all three planes to get anywhere with this idea of yours."

His eyes narrowed slightly at the last part of what Solomon had said. "As for things... don't make overstepping your bounds a habit."

[apologiesmyking]

[Caution is never a bad thing, but it doesn't stop them from doing what they need to do. Kaldur finds himself wondering about this place, the way the air feels so full and alive itself, not just the nature around him.

He is not surprised to find Zatanna there. It does seem like a world that would call to the magically-inclined. What he did not expect was her eyes to be glowing when he found her.]
