[APRIL EVENT] the city log
IC Introduction
For characters who did not open the door in their dream, then congratulations! You've woken up in your beds! But you've also been woken up by spirits. They are frantically buzzing around, flashing their lights brightly to get attention. The spirits are so desperate that they use all of their power to appear bright and make a ringing noise, then vanish and have to be replaced by another spirit. They are specifically harassing the Fallen Stars and trying to lead them to where their kidnapped friends once slept. When they reach the victims' houses, they will find a warm metal key on the ground somewhere with a pitch black envelope. Its contained letter is written in starry white ink:
"Come to the trial and witness the birth of a new kami."Welcome to the 'City Side' of the event! This portion of the event will run from APRIL 15th until APRIL 20th. On April 20th, a new log will go up and the setting will be drastically changed. Please look forward to it! There will also be a slight update on Monday, April 17th, which will affect this log.
In the meantime, this portion of the event will cover the 8 hours during which Fallen Stars have no idea how to reach their kidnapped friends. The victims went missing at 6am in the morning and the next update will occur at 1pm. You might be thinking "what do we even do here?" Well, good news. This part of the event is also split into four useful segments to help push your characters along! [SEGMENT ZERO - STARNET suffering edition]- As stated on the Facility Side, the kidnapped Fallen Stars will be able to receive Starnet messages, but not send them! If a player wishes to receive messages, then they can make a toplevel here. Any messages sent here cannot be replied to, but it can sure twist the knife. Have fun.
[SEGMENT ONE - STARNET CATCH-ALL]
- A catch-all for characters to make Starnet posts regarding the missing Fallen Stars. Please keep event related Starnet discussions here for... reasons! There is a chance of these going public later: Be warned.
[SEGMENT TWO - SCENES OF THE CRIME / INVESTIGATION CATCH-ALL]
- The spirits of Starsand City are quite frantically trying to get the attention of Fallen Stars. They will try to lead the Fallen Stars to the homes of the missing Fallen Stars, which is where the warm keys and letters can be found. Please refer here to declare who is holding keys. There is also an investigations toplevel here, where you can ask OOC questions to help aid character investigations.
[SEGMENT THREE - THE RED DOOR]
- Any character who thinks to check the Spacetime Shrine will be able to find something very out of place. If they climb to the top of the internal staircase, they will find that the black door at the top of the shrine is beginning to crack. Between the cracks and missing portions of the crystal door frame, they can seem a familiar red door. It is possible to damage the door to further the cracks.
[SEGMENT FOUR - MEETING]
- At 10am, a meeting will be held at the Shrine of Love. This will be a chance to discuss findings and plan the next move. This is an open mingle for discussion and emotional recovery.

So whenever he sees people he recognizes, Yuuto will only talk to them briefly. He runs over to them; He feels like he’s one misstep from falling apart.]
Are you okay?! What do you need? Are you hurt?!

[SEGMENT THREE - THE RED DOOR]
rinne and taiga climb the tower
Rinne still wasn't clear on the effects of a pact between a Fallen Star and a kami, but if anyone could potentially help out in finding Kanade, it'd be Yuuto. Which led him to the Spacetime Shrine... and, a glimpse of someone that was heading that way.
So, falls in line. This was... Aisaka, right? ]
Oi. Were you going to Yuuto's shrine?

Unfortunately, this stopped being the time or the place pretty quickly. With the looming threat of whatever this Facility was doing, she wasn't going to play this safely. She's sat off to the side, basically waiting for everyone to start filing in. Bonnie's just a part of the crew, after all!
Until it's time to stand up and fold her arms. ]
Okay. I think I've outlined everything pretty well in my post, so I'm not going to waste anyone's time. It's clear we've got some kind of enemy going around and stealing folks out of bed, so we're gonna need to figure out how to deal with it ASAP. If they're actually running experiments, then one of those idiots is going to cause something way, way worse than whatever it is you guys are thinking of.
So.
Floor's open. What do we know?

[SEGMENT FIVE - falling apart]
But before the entire group can make that journey, a message flashes on every screen in Starsand. It even makes it way to Starnet, if only for a few seconds:]
You're INVITED to the CROWNING of the new KAMI.
While you are welcome to use this toplevel for general reactions, there will also be some setting changes to react to! These will happen one by one, so you may take your time reacting to each one individually.
Thank you for your patience!
[1] The Rumor of the Lying Savior
For it is in music that our souls find LIGHT.
A sound that moves the SOUL and saves the SPIRIT.
She, the KAMI of LIGHT, chooses to weave her hope into songs.
She, the KAMI of LIGHT, shares her light with the world through song.
THE kami OF light PLAYS MUSIC TO SAVE THE LOST AND WEARY.
TO HEAL THE HURT AND LONELY.
But even as Kanade's piano music is accompanied by magical instruments and the mimicked voices of her friends... Nothing changes. It may be lovely to listen to, but no one is being saved by the songs.
The RUMORS begin slow. "Can music save anyone at all?" "Is this helping?" "She can't save people with music." Until, about fifteen minutes into the medley of songs, the glowing orb of a spirit suddenly melts into a puddle of goo.
And the RUMORS begin to spread faster... Of The Lying Savior, whose music can't save anyone. In fact, it seems to be corrupting them. And Kanade, who the center of this Rumor, can be seen at the piano... reinforcing the idea that she is a monster as she herself is corrupted by the Rumor.
Even when the video of Kanade stops, her music plays. And the Rumors spread.
With this setting update, Kanade's music will begin playing through all of Starsand. It plays on every screen and loud speaker that is available and unfortunately, it is turning all of the spirits in the area into monsters. They are not hard to defeat. Fighting these gooey creatures will banish the spirit to the spirit realm rather than killing it. It is also possible to calm them through conversation. But the fact of the matter is that wherever Kanade's music is playing, these monstrous Rumors are being born.
Someone needs to stop them at the source. Whether it is stopping the broadcast or reaching Kanade herself.
