MAY MINGLE


May Mingle: Entombed City
Welcome to Teyvat - a vast magical world of adventure.

Everyone's hard work resulted in the gate to upper Dragonspine opening. These ruins have not been traversed in years, if not centuries - everything within has been lost to time and living memory. An entire city has been buried in the snow.

People once lived there. The broken buildings host damaged furniture and weathered streets. There are various cloth-covered mounds in a house here and there, accompanied by a sprig of blue flowers. Someone has laid these people to rest after they passed away.

Traces of technology can be found in the city - golden boxes that contain crystals capable of recording and playing back holograms. One of the boxes introduces this place as Vindagnyr; a land once full of greenery and life. Just what happened to these people? What caused the eternal winter?


The highest point in the city is occupied by a temple built into a Domain. Within the Domain is a pale white tree, split in half by a strange object that has fallen through the Domain's ceiling. This temple was once a site for worship for Vindagnyr's people, and even in death they continue to pray for salvation. The priests have been frozen in ice, and the sheer cold emanating from the Skyfrost Nail makes it obvious that it is the cause of winter.

The city's inhabitants worshipped Celestia. Why then were they left to die?


State of the World

On October 1st, the entombed city of Vindagnyr becomes open for exploration. Travelers can choose to look for clues or try to scavenge the city for ancient materials or tools. Recording boxes all around the city tell stories of Vindagnyr's greener past, and of the days when winter suddenly arrived. This is the cruelty of Celestia that Forneus wished you to see.

For all questions regarding May's mingle and events, please head over to our OOC post.

[A nod.]

Would you prefer to walk as we search or to ride my shoulders? Both have their advantages, so it's your choice.
fiddlestick: (what the frick)

-- What?!

[Taken aback]

No, I don't need to ride your shoulders! I'm not that short!
evilisnotatoy: (for us to get together and sing)

[Sort of cocks his head to one side like a confused dog.]

I never implied you were. I simply thought it would be easier if one of us could focus purely on looking rather than walking, and given the height and weight disparity between the two of us...

But if you would truly rather walk, so be it.

[that explanation does not help. Height and weight disparity?? Rude.]

Yes, I'd rather walk, thank you. I'm capable of walking and looking at the same time.

[Which he will be now heading off to do just that!!]
evilisnotatoy: (I've got this feeling)

[Oooookay, Elliot is weirdly sensitive about being a little smaller than average. Noted.

He matches pace with the redhead, keeping quiet for a moment before speaking again.]

...Apologies. I meant no offense.

[Elliot meanwhile is walking and keeping his eyes peel, letting the cold air cool him off. When Sooga speaks up again, he sighs]

Forget it. Let's just focus on seeing if we can find that building, okay?

[Little do they know, it's halfway down the fricking mountain]

[RIP the two of them, I guess.]
