[shortly after the storm clears on may 11th and the network connection between both sides of the group is reestablished, the following post appears:]
We're fine, as far as I know. I don't think anyone's dead, at least.
The storm that separated us was brought about by a Dakal named Pomarr. Some of you may remember her as our feline friend who sold her soul to Ryba—or whatever it is she did—to continue to live on after death.
She swept us to an island that looked like it was raised from the seafloor. It wasn't a vacation, but there were definitely remnants of what those big cats must have called home.
Her plan is to revive her entire race, in the same way Ryba "revived" her. As if life-or-death deals with shady goddesses aren't concerning enough, she wants to grant Ryba the power to carry out this mass revival by having her suck Nalanni dry. Pomarr understandably doesn't care much for Nalanni after she drowned everyone she loved; in fact, she showed us this in morbid detail. She's taken Nalanni. Hence, all the Nalawi losing their Gifts and all of this inconvenience we have to deal with.
Pomarr knows where Nalanni is, but she's asking us not to interfere, and she wouldn't give us the opportunity to speak with Nalanni when I requested it. For some reason, she didn't expect that we would be suffering like the Nalawi are. She's promised to try to fix that.
What do we do now, ALASTAIR? I can share anything else you want to know about our meeting with Pomarr, or Yukimura Sanada-san or Mr. Keats can, but this is most of it. We have a situation where the balance of this whole world might be upended if we sit and twiddle our thumbs.
I don't think I need to remind anyone of the potential consequences of messing with either goddess. Or a litter of zombie cats roaming free.
(( ooc: infodump for rin, yukimura, and keats' conversation with a dakal npc, for one of the plot slots! feel free to handwave your character (in either the marooned group or the left behind group) learned this info by reading the post or talking with rin/yukimura/keats/another recruit. yukimura and keats may also be replying to tags! ))

Sometimes, the dead have a reason to come back to life. But sometimes they should stay dead, especially if the mechanism bringing them back is... how would you put it? Unnatural!

Sorry. Technical difficulties. Give me a sec.
[ The jewelry isn't really technical at all, but "mental difficulties" just isn't a phrase he's ready to say. Also, it's harder to explain your "multiple personality" than it is to claim you just needed to turn it off and on again. ]
Okay. I'm back, hey.
Anyway, yeah, no zombies. Why, do you have zombies? Please tell me you have zombies.
no subject
If we had zombies, I never encountered them personally. One of my friends though, she's a... what do humans call them? You know, undead creature, glows, drinks blood? Anyway, she is one of those, and she's quite friendly, but I can't say I would want to be on her bad side, either! One of our teammates is undead as well.

Counter-point, I'm guessing they wanna kill the deer and not us. But I wanna get back to that "probably" thing, because I'm having trouble imagining a scenario in which having an undead army trying to kill us ISN'T bad??
no subject
And a corollary to the counter-counter-point, would we want to let them slaughter the natives just so that we could make an escape?
no subject
This is making me sound like a bad person, ok, but I'm NOT, I'm just saying. I have stuff to do, so I wanna live.

1) It's true, that is why I said it. You do understand how decomposition works, right?
2) I don't think those are our only two options! And not necessarily mutually exclusive. It sounds like if Pomarr revives her race, Ryba will become that much more powerful, and we will be contending with both an undead army and an even stronger goddess who doesn't seem to bear much good will towards us.
I don't think this is a game we can win by simply not playing.
no subject
You make a good point. But I'm more of a behind the scenes guy. You know, the guy in the movie they call who's always on the computer hacking into the database or whatever. It's not like I'll be on the front lines stabbing a goddess with a shock baton (although that would be pretty freakin sweet) anyway.
Also YES I know how decomposition works, I just don't talk about it all the time!!
no subject
Well, when there is a hacking job, then you will be the first to know, and I will let everyone know you've so graciously volunteered! Unfortunately, there don't seem to be any computers here, so you may want to think about getting that baton out. Or just finding a good place to sit it out while everyone else does all the work. Your choice!

Wow. Ok. Yeah. I will definitely take care of myself. And you do that too. [ Unsaid: 'Because nobody else likes me.' :C ] 0u0 right back atcha.
