Who: Pregame arrivals
When: Day 1, Morning
Where: Shrine Room!
What: Introductionsss? And I guess being dead feelings!


[So, in an apartment largely unfurnished, save for some shrines and basical appliances, a small group of formerly dead people start popping up...]


((Just go for it, guys. I will have Del out doing explanations soon! Mingle etc etc))

[Over by a sandstone shrine there is a smally, waify middle-aged woman looking at you SUPER expectantly]

[edgeofjustice]

Hey, you wouldn't happen to know where we are, would you?

[oi_theoi]

Just right where you are supposed to be. I can't tell you how glad I am you've made it.

[edgeofjustice]

Sorry I can't really share in your enthusiasm...

[oi_theoi]

You have just realized your own death, no?

[chivalric]

Excuse me? May I speak with you?

[oi_theoi]

[=x]

Yes! How can I help?

[chivalric]

I have a few questions, if you do not mind. About this place and why we are here.

[oi_theoi]

I will tell you what I can.

[I guess I'm coming over here to listen in after trying to get Slick to feel feelings]

[boundbydevotion]

[after a while]


What sorts of sacrifice do you require from us?

[oi_theoi]

We each have different things that will do. I will take certain parts of animals, or whole maneaters, if you can find them. Loyalty, devotion, doing well by those around you, protecting others, offering of yourself. You may do all of these in my name.

[boundbydevotion]

[...oh, that is way less terrible than I was expecting...]

And what is your name? Is there an.. associated ritual?

[undeadtome]

[certainly listening in for a good part once that initial urge to check if he's undead thing is over]

[oi_theoi]

[doesn't at all mind your listening in, but when she is done smiles at you]

Did you want to ask anything?

[undeadtome]

[addressing gods and goddesses directly is so weird a concept] What would you prefer I call you, madam?

[oi_theoi]

Dellen is fine. I have had many other names, but they must be given to me, and the ones who remember them are gone. And you?

[withswagger]

Madam. I believe introductions are due.

[oi_theoi]

You may call me Dellen, sir. And you?

[withswagger]

Balthier. Forgive me if I am curt. I am unaccustomed to dying.

[oi_theoi]

I would hope so.

[formulaic]

So you're in charge here?

[oi_theoi]

I am one of the gods of this world, yes.

[formulaic]

And I'm supposed to believe we all just coincidentally died and you brought us here by unknown means?

[oi_theoi]

The means are quite well known to me. And do you think it is so much of a coincidence?
