CRESCENT;

Crescent

As The Crescent:
Every Monday, the Crescent will meet with the Signs and be given the opportunity to grant one other player immunity for the week. This immunity will allow the player to live for that week even if they are chosen as a victim by the Corrupted.

Should the Crescent choose to protect someone and that person is selected as a victim, however, the Crescent's name will be provided as the victim and they will die in that week to protect the chosen player.

The Crescent will also be allowed to submit a name for a victim in order to protect someone else. If they are concerned that someone they wish to protect will be chosen by the Corrupted, they may enact a trade to sacrifice another player. While there is no guarantee that the name they've offered will be chosen, this action will earn favor among the Signs.

The choice must be made at the time of the meeting. The Crescent only gets one meeting per week and they must choose wisely if they wish to protect someone and risk their own life, or offer someone as a failsafe sacrifice. (i.e. "I would like to protect X" versus "should X be chosen by the Corrupted, I would like to substitute Y.")

When the Signs seek to summon the Crescent, a portal will appear when they finds themselves alone. Upon entering the portal, they will be brought into a tea room where the Signs are waiting for them. When their visit in the room concludes and they choose to exit, the portal will disappear. The Crescent will find that no matter how long they spent in the tea Room, no time has elapsed outside of the portal.

Additional notes:
The Crescent will be allowed to ask questions about the ongoings of the game and communicate with the Signs in their weekly meetings. They will be able to also receive small hints in the game should they perform well, including game mechanics, locations and more. However, the information received will be up to the Signs' discretion.

Best of luck.

WEEK 3

CHOICE

[cyclists]

[Please submit your choice of who to protect, whether this is a traditional protection or a sacrifice and, if applicable, who the sacrifice will be by Tuesday at 9:00 AM PST/12:00 PM EST.]

[tothemaxwell]

I choose to protect Xion.

SOL

[cyclists]

Re: SOL

[tothemaxwell]

Hello again, Sol.

[She looks... a little tired?]

I can't tell you how sorry I am for that shameful display, particularly as I largely brought it upon myself. I truly apologize.

[cyclists]

[Milla :(]

I don't know if I'd say you brought it upon yourself. Some people just felt like stepping in. [...] Are you okay?

[tothemaxwell]

I'd say I brought at least a large part of it on to myself. If I was assigning percentages, it would be at least an 80% share.

[She sighs, and shakes her head.]

I will be fine. Moreover, how are you doing? I suppose nothing has changed for this week beyond the usual? Although, I can't say I enjoy that this schedule is... becoming normal.

[cyclists]

80% is a lot, but at least it's over. We can only improve from here. [Still, everyone needs to leave Milla alone.]

I'm not too happy this is becoming a normal thing either, but...we're getting better. We're getting some more answers about how this stuff works and at least this week we managed to minimize our damage.

[tothemaxwell]

Yes. After that, there is really only "up", isn't there. [yeesh.]

Are we? I'm happy to hear someone say that. From within, it is genuinely hard to tell—but I suppose yourself and Lune will have more of a grasp on the situation at large than any of us will from within.

What advice would you give me, if any at all?

[cyclists]

I think we are. It might not feel like it, but before this Lune and I didn't even have ways to purify people other than...y'know. So to know there are things out there we can find and use if we look and knowing that clearing the corruption in these gateways is helping? That means a lot.

But if I had to give advice...[Welll...] You mean for this job? Or for this situation?

[tothemaxwell]

That is a fair point. Thank you for giving us all something to continue to believe in.

[hmm]

Perhaps both. I would not shy away from any advice or words, were you to offer them, Sol. I believe you have a good head on your body, as the saying goes.

[cyclists]

That's...not quite how the saying goes, but I get it. As for advice...my advice is always to talk to other people and don't be afraid to share information with those you trust. You have people you trust by now, don't you?

[tothemaxwell]

[hm.]

...I do not generally tend to share my thoughts. But I cannot tell others it is better to work as a team, if I do not do so myself.

Yes. I will share what I have with those I trust.

[cyclists]

Good. That's a start. [...] I've never been really great at sharing my thoughts either, so I get it. It's hard to know who, exactly, you can trust in situations like these when you don't know who might become corrupted or anything like that.

But I think you have good instincts. It's part of why Lune picked you, I bet.

LUNE

[cyclists]

[tothemaxwell]

Good day, Lune.

[Arrgh]

I believe I've already apologized to you, [or rather will in the audience thread......] but I cannot tell you how ridiculous I feel, considering the situations I created.

With that said, I want to focus one hundred percent on this week. What can you tell me about the corruption's advancement?

[cyclists]

[I THOUGHT I ALREADY HIT THIS, SORRY NIJI but there is just a gentle laugh at that]

You will recover, Milla. You are far too valuable and noble to be hindered by something such as that.

As for the corruption - Hm... I believe that each of you are making excellent strides toward being able to combat it.

[tothemaxwell]

[We have so many threads no worries!!]

Yes, everyone seems to be working together very well. It's very good to see.

[cyclists]

Hahaha, I only hope that it will continue. I am pleased to see the bonds that are growing between all of you.

[tothemaxwell]

Heh heh. You do seem to be our biggest fan, Lune.

What do the two of you get up to, when you are not conversing with us? Do you have your own spaces, your own houses you adjourn to?

[!]

Oh! Are you and Sol partners as well, perhaps?

[cyclists]

Ahaha, you are correct - we both possess homes of our own. There are other tasks that we must attend to as well.

However the young one and I are not partnered the same as each of you - but there is no doubt that I rely on him greatly, and appreciate his company and understanding as we move forward each week.

[tothemaxwell]

Other tasks? [...] General chores? Laundry? I would very much like to see these homes of yours.

You rely on Sol? That is good to hear. What does he assist you with?

[cyclists]

Would you? I am able to grant access to those who wish to visit - but you must accomplish a small task first. It may be separate from those that you are completing in exchange for favors.

[there's just some gentle amusement at that]

He assisted me in dressing, for some time. And he reminds me each day how important it is to keep trying. He possesses a fire that I admire.

[tothemaxwell]

Oh! In that case, I am officially registering my interest in visiting your abode.

["lemme come over" but classy]

Dressing? Were you perhaps not used to wearing clothing, Lune?

[cyclists]

Ahaha, is that so? Then you will have to retrieve something important to me from an elemental area. I would appreciate the effort.

[aND DANA WILL SET THAT UP IN A BIT, NIJI]

I was not - and even now, I do not believe as though I am able to move nimbly enough in this body to be able to adorn myself correctly.
