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.

[Little does she know the negative amount of points he has in cooking....
But Tsuru is finally released when they get back in front of the fire, the pot having already been set up and prepped.]
It's just gonna be a stew we're making. I managed to bring up some supplies from Mondstadt so it should be nice and filling.
[Perks of being able to fly again is that she doesn't have to hike up and down the mountain constantly.]

And yet, his pride won't let him admit he sucks? So he's just going to stare at the pot warily and shift from one foot to the other like he might make another run for it? Like he's looking for an escape route?
But really, he just has no idea what he's doing here.)
... What's in it?
no subject
Though she notices his shuffling, wondering for a moment if he is going to run again. But no, it just seems like he's not certain what to do. Well, that's easily remedied.]
Just meat and vegetables, nothing complicated. [She says as she sits back, ready to... peel some potatoes. Which she does in quick and practiced motions, only pausing to motion him towards the box of veggies.]
Could you chop up those and add them to the pot?
no subject
And honestly, even if he was humble, he wouldn't say a word for the sheere chaos factor.
He'll take some carrots. And some onions? Maybe some more onions. How many onions does a stew need... do not perceive him because he's going to cut a lot of onions and carrots. He's good at cutting! It's the one thing he's good at in the kitchen.
When he dumps the first batch of vegetables in, he pokes at it a bit with a spoon and
drops the spoon in the pot. Just gonna leave it, poke it all down with another spoon, and leave it at the side of the pot.... which will also drop into the pot eventually. This is all fine.
Now this is a stew with a lot of onions and 2 spoons.)
no subject
- Spoon?
Two spoons??
Onion and spoon stew???]
Waaaait, wait, wait, you can't put that in there! [Gonna grab a ladle and fish out the spoons. They need those! They can't eat them!!]
We're gonna need these later! And maybe add something else besides onions... [She offers the potatoes she's finished peeling. Please chop those.]
no subject
It's iron.
(And now he has a bunch of potatoes to cut???)
no subject
Yeah, but we'll break our teeth if we try to eat it! That's what meat and some vegetables are for.
[They have a lot of people to feed, so there's a lot of potatoes. Meanwhile Ana adds some seasonings to try to balance the taste of Onion.]
Besides, we'll need the spoons later to eat this.
