It is our unity of ideas that is our strength now, not the dread of weapons turned against our own countrymen.

What light shall shine in this Dusk of our land if we shatter and splinter into a thousand guttering flames? But let a thousand flames be united as one and we shall shine like the noon sun!

*counts votes* So maybe I'm not a minority? Cool.
Jokes aside, I feel that her becoming a vampire just wouldn't feel right storywise. It would be jumping the shark at this point.
Exactly. It isn't earned yet. Misty doesn't want to be a vampire, nobody is tricking her into being one (so far).
Even if she would be the cutest, most naïve vampire ever, this is the wrong moment.

How about that party idea we had a while back? All the dwarves would come and listen to how great Cowsea is if the Queen threw a party, right?

Just a thought, since it appears it is possible to craft many things out of the raw material of this world, maybe we can make a door out?

But I'd rather not try right now, lest we succeed in letting scary blood-shedding guy into our world.

Although if that one prophet was right, I'm not sure we can avoid doing that.

Ah, shit. It's Craig, isn't it? We're going to break the laws of God and man and return from the blood dimension, thereby accidentally fulfilling Punchy The Prophet's wildest blood fantasies.

I guess it was implied that we'd try to return without causing an apocalypse or bringing other less respectable denizens along, so this isn't really meta (if true). Regardless, we are one hundo percent getting out or here or our name isn't Grawr.

I'm gonna laugh so hard if Clara IV goes rogue. Because we now know Matthias was the one who wanted to stay home on the plane of blood and keep that power away from everyone else, and she is from the opposite faction in the Blood Wars.

+1 to plugging Clara in the amethyst mandroid

How do you feel about being off that donkey.
* Excitement

What do you want to focus on? What do you want to think about?
* You review objects and things from your old world.
* You review random ideas or books from your old world.
* You review events from your old life.
* Meditating
* Try to see how much of psalm 119 you remember.

How do you want to try to learn this new language?
* Try to find a way to talk in your old language.

There are many things to look at. What do you notice?
* Try to look at things by the pond.

Movement is happening. This is fun. Unfortunately, this movement is not under your power but that of the donkey your basket is attached to.  How do you handle this?
* Try to sit.
* Try to crawl on your belly as far as you can
-* Crawl towards the pond.

Meta Questions:
How long do you want to spend on the road?
* 3 sounds fine.

Reminds me of Robin Hood but also he has superpowers.

If the queen happens to cut herself on some cutlery or something accidentally and is bleeding, be sure to kiss the wound to make it all better.

-1 from me. I may be in the minority, but I'd rather not have vampire Misty.

Focus Actions
Chew on the basket that holds you whenever you have the chance. You don't have teeth yet but maybe you can get drool all over the basket.
You review objects and things from your old world.
Prayer

I'm having too much fun roleplaying a baby to leave that unvoted.
And if we were such a helpful person in our past life, perhaps we were religious as well. Guess we'll find out.


Language Approach
Attempt to mimic the words that you understood last "cessabit" and "quiescis".
Listen for more sounds and words. Think about them more.


Senses
You look for any movement.
Write-in: Study the other people around you. Work on recognizing more and more individuals.


Movement
You try to pull yourself out of the basket.
Write-in modification: Try to pull yourself up in the basket, but not falling climbing out yet.

How do you react to this?
Puzzled

Do you respond/ if so, how?
“O quaeritis cessabit?, quiescis?, carrota radices?”

Happy for the attention
“O quaeritis cessabit?, quiescis?, carrota radices?”

Perfectly understandable.

Edit:
Ooh, here's a good idea!
Spit back toward the other child, without hitting him.
It makes sense to return his gesture of acquaintance/friendship. Plus it's good practice for our fine motor skills.

I know quite a few Catholic priests who would disagree with that. They're quite insistent that the whole point of Christ is that the human and divine became united and can't be divided like that; and have been quite firm in that stance since some of the early councils when they split with Miaphysites, Monophysites, and the like. What that tooltip describes, though, is a belief that all humans have a similar divine presence and ought to be consumed (directly), rather than one exceptional case (using transubstantiated bread).

So it's almost the exact opposite of how you're "supposed" to play the game, but I've been playing around with a "lone survivor" scenario by walling in the other colonists.

There doesn't seem to be any notice when somebody starves to death. A warning when the Starving condition procs on the way there, but not when they shuffle off the mortal coil.

There is unexpectedly no Game Over if you "accidentally" starve everybody. Wait long enough (I didn't) and you can get the boat event for replacements?

In one case where I have five rebels trapped and only one free, it is the free one with access to food and maintaining 49-70% hunger levels who got the Starving status and refuses to follow orders. He didn't run off to gorge himself, just stopped mining.

627
How do you react?
Fear
This is too much change, too fast, and rather noisy. We need comforting.

Focus Choices
Review objects and things from our old world
Write-in: Try remembering important historical events from our old life

Language approach
Attempt to mimic the words  "cessabit" and "quiescis".
Attempt to say "carrota radices".


Things to look at
Try to count things around us
Let our hearing guide our vision


Movement
Resign ourself to being immobile for present
? Not a strong preference. More life half a vote at most.

Because they don't know how to forge anything as small as forks?

Koaring relaxes a bit as the other god's demeanor – and colors – becomes friendly again. "And I think one should not worry too much about sagas. They are a guidance, and a useful tool, but not a necessity for success. As it is, I already have an object which has decayed from improper storage. I intend to search the Academy grounds for building Materials and I'm not going to put it aside for sagas whether you join me or not. If you insist, then I guess we can postpone the construction phase until you are confident in the outcome, just not any longer than the Rabbit, please. Sooner is better."

Koaring emends his plans for the turn.

"But from what will we make the environments in which to place them? One mineral, one plant does not an environment make. The rooms now are empty, they have no environments yet, unless we pool all in with the Menagerie. I am going to search for, for – for the bedrock, the soil, the strata upon which our collection can be built. For a something to define the collection's space instead of the nothing we have now."
