The Network: May, An Inauspicious Arrival

The Watches Everyone who arrives in an unorthodox way and eventually shows up at the Coven for 'orientation', will receive a strange, watch-like device compliments of the Coven and Parliament. Miss Nessie or one of the welcome wagon crew will give characters a run-down of how to use the various functions and they are encouraged to test them out for themselves. It would be good for them to get in touch with their fellow Mirrorbound, of course! Fourth wall characters will not be able to make their own posts in the communities, so they may use this post to make "network posts" of their own by top-leveling. The log post is right over here.

[ Well, that's a question with a lot of answers, but given the situation, Mado likely means little to people here. ]

A place called Tierra.

[Oh.

There's a momentary surge of elation, followed swiftly by the sensation of his stomach flipping and then dropping to the floor. It could be coincidence, or it could be--]

Are you a Food Soul?

[netherfire]

That's right. My name is Turducken, owner of the Nirvana funeral parlor.

[ A blink, as though she puts together a few pieces of her own. ]

Are you one of those Knights of the Holy Sword I've heard about?

[judgementor]

[Ah-- Ah.

Damn it. Normally he'd argue about the name, but Steak isn't here right now, so... priorities.]

I suppose so.

[netherfire]

[ So... She finally meets one of these Souls, often mentioned in the eye of Horus.

This isn't exactly how she imagined she would meet any other Food Soul, but so be it. ]

It's a pleasure to meet you, but the circumstances could be better.

Did you just arrive?

[judgementor]

No.
I've been here for some time.

[netherfire]

[ Hm. That's odd, but Turducken takes the information in stride. It's been quite evident that others have been living here for some time, and she's never actually encountered Red Wine to have comments about but we were together a moment ago. ]

I see.
Well. May I entrust myself into your care for a while?

[ She's used to going it alone, certainly, but it can't hurt to have the aid of another, more experienced Soul when it's available. ]

[judgementor]

[It wouldn't be a good idea. It wouldn't, because he's barely even a Food Soul anymore. Would she even know him for what he should be, now?

But better to meet her under circumstances they can control, instead of by chance. Aefenglom is not so large that he could guarantee not coming across her.]

Very well.
Where can I find you?

[netherfire]

[ That's... a good question. He's certainly dead, but in possession of a soul. Who knows where that lands on Turducken's sensitivities? ]

I'm at a graveyard.

[ Which is a fine place to meet if you ask her, but she's aware people don't always enjoy this atmosphere in quite the same way. ]

What about the bar Dulcet?

[ She observed her route to this location, okay. ]

[judgementor]

[A graveyard. That tracks.]

That's fine. I'll see you there.
