Date: late-Ieneuer, when the kidnappings related to The Salvation of Geardagas start
Format: text

There's been a word on the streets, of people being assaulted, disappearing attempts of kidnappings— that's not a word anyone who was here a year ago wants to hear again, plenty of us might be already on edge. But whatever is going on this time? Whoever it is? They're not as good as the scum behind what happened a year ago. That means we have a bigger window to act and to protect each other.

My idea is: let's put together a list of Mirrorbounds willing to guard those returning home. Whether it's for those who work far away from the Haven or stay at Coven classes long after its dark or just anyone that would feel safer in the company.

I'll start

I work at Inkchanted, it's located in the docks, near the Slydog tavern. I tend to work afternoons and evenings, so if anyone also finishes their job at docks around that time, I can walk you back to Haven. I could also pick up someone working on the western edges of the shopping district.


OOC: feel free to threadjack each other for bodyguard seeking/service offering

[ a dark-haired young woman in glasses and dark local fashion sits in front of the camera. she can't be older than 21, surely. anyway, byleth's been here for over a month and she's only posting to the network now. ]

I'm Byleth Eisner. I've met some of you already. I suppose you would call this an... interest check? [ she takes off her glasses, hanging them from the neckline of her shirt. ] Most of my recent work before coming here was in commanding my Emperor's army, but I'm an experienced teacher as well. Armed and unarmed combat, archery, strategy and tactics, riding, magic... rhetoric and composition. [ was that last one a joke? it's impossible to tell. her face gives no hints one way or another. ]

The Coven trains witches in magic, but that only does so much good. I'd like to work towards establishing a school where the Mirrorbound without martial skills can learn them. As it is, the Wilde is too dangerous for too many of us, and ad-hoc lessons aren't enough. [ she waves a hand. ] This is all... hypothetical, right now. But if this sounds something you'd like to either help with or learn from, please, let me know. In the meantime, I'm open to teaching one-on-one.

[ she seems to consider something, briefly, before: ]

... Also, firearms are new to me. I'm familiar with powder explosives, and I've seen cannons, but if anyone might help me to understand the use and maintenance of guns, I would appreciate it.

[ byleth pauses again. ]

That's all. [ and off it goes. nailed it? ]

[ ooc: open to fourth wall people! ]

Man becomes monster: what a common theme throughout human literature. Yet in this world, it's an aspect of life that's hardly worth batting an eye at. Were Shakespeare here, he'd cream himself over the ripe psychological suffering among the Mirrorbound. Him, or certain nuns...

[bro what the FUCK are you talking about]

Thinking about those two in cahoots gives me an ulcer. I feel like vigorously scrubbing my brain smooth, so I can't picture it! Maybe that way, I won't be beset by stupid thoughts!

But I am, unfortunately, sentient, and I will continue to suffer this farce of an existence. As if that wasn't enough, I've been plagued by a question for the past few days. Witches, I'm not talking to you. You can gawk and stare if you'd like, I certainly can't stop you from being voyeurs.

Monsters. What are your feelings towards being pet? Is there truly a polite way to ask for a petting?

FOR THE ATTENTION OF LIKE-MINDED SCHOLARS, men of science, or students of so-called enchanted or monstrumological biology, a series of inquiries—
  • Who among you has conducted studies between the mutations found in Mirrorbounded and those of the local population? Have any notable discrepancies been recorded between the two?

  • What data have you recorded or observed with respect to the natural progression of the affliction - at which point does the local population begin to manifest their traits (from birth? with the beginning of puberty? in response to a natural environmental trigger?), versus the length of time it takes a non-native to begin to experience significant alteration to the self?

  • Has the presence or lack of a Bond been recorded to emphasize or slow the progression of relevant mutative factors? I do not speak of the frankly exhaustively documented question of the Bond's stabilizing properties, but rather as to whether individuals with inhuman traits or extranatural abilities find the progression of their affliction altered when compared to individuals with no long term Bond.

  • Is this so with the native population as well? At what age are native children to Bond? Refer to the second point, et cetera.

    Copies of your notes, recommended reading, and so on may be submitted below.

  • WANTED, GENERALLY—
  • Individuals of sense and discretion for work relating to the collection of rare and unique samples. Compensation to be negotiated. Inquire below.

  • Individuals for study, all levels of mutation and Bond status welcome. No compensation. Inquire below.
