[Locked to Residents]

Greetings, Luceti. I see you've managed to open the proverbial Pandora's Box. I was wondering when that would happen.

More seriously, however- no doubt most of you have noticed the widespread issue that's resulted from that decision. Some might even recall a similar experience occurring years ago. If you're concerned about the affected residents meeting their unfortunate ends once again, well, that's unlikely. Death wouldn't be a particularly beneficial alternative to what you've unleashed this time.

However, there's still the matter of sorting out the spirits now. I'm interested in hearing what you lot have already tried when it comes to dealing with what you've unlocked, but my advice for getting the black spirit to relinquish control is to let the rest do the work for you. Last time this happened, I was able to fix it, but it's beyond my power now.

Discuss it amongst yourselves, trade your theories; I'm sure you'll come up with something. I'll help with what I can. Sooner would be better, though- I make no promises that my former comrades won't take measures to deal with you if this isn't resolved internally within a few weeks.


[ooc: arright kids, true to John's word, he'll be overseeing the discussion. He won't be telling people how to fix this problem, but he'll answer whatever questions he can and give some advice here and there. see what you can work out amongst yourselves and feel free to ping me if I'm needed and don't show up. if nothing comes up within a week, we'll throw you a more obvious bone or two. tally ho~]

The Twila are...

They're like crows.

That doesn't explain anything unless you mean they like shiny things.

I don't know if the Twila like shiny things or not.

It's... the story of The Prince and the Raven. [He closes his eyes for a moment. Without his heart, it's primarily Hyt that is granting him clarity and some sort of drive.]

Once upon a time... there was a prince who loved and was loved by all. But... The people fought over who was more worthy of this love. The raven... it fed off of this chaos and sought to eat the prince's heart for itself. It wanted the world... to be all crows, instead.

( Addie speaks up, the manic gleam in her eye that she's been sporting for the last few days temporarily gone. She looks odd with the thoughtful look on her face after sporting that constant grin. )

What happened to the prince of the story? I do hope he was able to stop the raven from eating his heart.

He did. He split his heart into pieces... to seal the raven away.

That is an awful thing to happen to the prince. ( She can never imagine herself being so willing to do that. ) Whatever happened to him after losing his heart? That's a terrible fate to let himself fall under.

( And for other people? Loved or not, that was an action Addie can't understand or see herself doing for anyone. )

He lived on without it... without all of his emotions.

Until someone could piece his heart together again.

And did anyone do it? Piece together his heart? You said he was loved by all.

( Why she's getting so defensive over the prince is beyond her understanding. She simply chalks it up to spirit shenanigans and will until these bothers leave. ) You think any one of those people that fought over him and caused that mess would bother to try and help the prince.

That's in the story.

( She wants to point out that sounds dumb but remembers what's on her back. What prompted this conversation in the first place. Wisely decides to not do that. )

In the story. So you're saying this happened in real life? Where you are from, I have to assume if you heard this tale.

It happened.

It started in the story... and then we left it.

We.

( Addie is a lot of things. Slow may possibly one of them, compared to a lot of others but she can catch up pretty quick.

Right now she wishes she isn't because where this is going whoa boy.
)

That means you're part of the story. And from how you've been acting since we first met that means...

[He stares blankly and asks softly.]

What?

This prince of the story you spoke of?

( That sounds lame. Even to her. Maybe he's just this dispassionate if something does not catch his attention. Not everything, or everyone, she'll meet here will be magical one way or another.

Waving a hand all of the sudden, she gives off a flustered laugh.
)

Ah! Disregard what I just said there, my dear. My imagination has been running wild since coming here.

[His response is quick and quiet but affirmative. A simple confirmation.]

Yes.

( Her expression could be considered priceless. If flies tried to drift into her open mouth now, they could perhaps get all the way to her stomach with how wide she lets it hang for a few seconds.

Then she composes herself, reminds herself she's a lady and he probably thinks she's weird thanks to her bugged out stare at his answer.
)

I-- That is-- ( Trying to find a word that could reflect her feelings at the moment. ) Extraordinary. It also explains a few things if you do not mind that. You seem so calm and aloof to an extent that one does wonder.

{ A purposely overdramatic 'le sigh' at this moment. }

Like right now, my dear. If I were in your place, I... Hm.

Does it not bother you that you do not -- How does one say it in English and not be accused of being tactless? Experience life. { Because much as Addie closes off her own feelings, the woman grudgingly admits that she couldn't imagine not being able to feel. Not like she'll ever admit that or something. }

So... you're presenting that Twila's an opportunist who's benefiting from all the other problems people are going through. So the idea of fixing other people's problems that the bartender threw out is still the best one.

You think so...?

Precisely! If you make it so people's problems aren't that bad, it's got no reason to talk to people more, let alone for people to listen!

Then it will have no choice... but to just rot away.

That's the idea, yeah. Or at least keep to itself.

That would be good, too... wouldn't it?

As long as it's... away.

Yeah, exactly. As long as you treat the people it's working nicely.
