A Twisted Rumor


It's the day after the Fallen Star Meeting regarding the recent rumor. As morning brightens the city's night, stories are making their way from the bottom level to the top.


"The cherry blossom tree isn't going to hurt us, is it? It looks so scary."


For those who have learned the truth about rumors, this may especially distressing to hear. There's no time to wait: If anything is going to be done to save the tree's spirit, it must be done now.


The current plan is to address the tree spirit's wish to be remembered and acknowledged by holding a picnic by the lonely cherry blossom tree. Fallen Stars hope to reenact the lively Reblooming parties that had been happening on the upper levels all month. This tree, though the origin of that tradition, exists at the bottom level of Starsand City: Where spirits and kami are still feared. The hope is that this party will soothe the raging spirit and bring it peace... and, ideally, bring back all of the people who have recently gone missing.


But the meeting also ended on a note of caution. If the spirit will not peacefully give up the missing people, then more drastic measures may need to be taken. And... Spoiler alert, but this log is titled tree FIGHT.

Timeline of Events
This log will operate a bit different from normal! It's also an experiment, so if it doesn't work then apologies in advanced! In order to maintain an easy-to-follow timeline of events, there will be a top-level for each stage of the encounter. As the encounter progresses, new top-levels will be added to reflect each stage of the Rumor.


Character top-levels are still welcome, but please try to use the top-levels for time sensitive threads. Threadjacking is welcomed & encouraged, though please be respectful of one another. And of course, make use of the feedback section!


Backtagging is also still welcome. Event stages will be staggered over the course of the next week & past threads still have time to make an impact. Please don't feel rushed!

    Hanyuu-chan...

    [That look in her eyes is such a far cry from the eyes Madoka first met. Her heart aches for her new friend... Just how much of a burden does Hanyuu shoulder, that it makes those kind eyes of hers look so tired..?

    Madoka touches the soul gem around her neck.]


    Don't worry about me. As long as this doesn't break, I won't either. [It's not a confession that Madoka makes lightly,] I'll explain later, but for now... As long as I can touch them, I can purify them.

    Let's save them, Hanyuu-chan!

    [ Saying that will only make her grow even more concerned... just because you can't die doesn't mean you can't still get hurt.

    Of course, Hanyuu would know this all too well, given that she is kind of dead, in a sense.

    There's a slight crack in her facade as she speaks, her voice soft, only for a moment: ]


    Alright.

    [ And then like a switch: ]

    At the very least, we can have them roll high numbers one last time.
