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.

Hey, I've eaten a lot but I'm not fat! [ He's pouting like a child but he does stop leaning, so this is a win in some way even if it might not feel like one. The expression keeps on his face for all of Ledah's remarks, for as much as that says in how much he's bothered by them. ]

Spoilsport. It's not like there's any Gods around for me to eat anyway, besides Forenus. And I owe him so I would never.

[ Ledah will just stare blankly at Byakuya's comment about eating. He's gotten used to some of the other's quirky mannerisms, but that didn't mean he found them something he could always respond to.

Though he was five seconds from making an expression of disapproval. This conversation had simply convinced the Grim Angel he will need to continue to keep an eye on him. Sometimes, the fact Forneus recruited this man was something hard for him to fathom. That being said, it's interesting he stated he owed him; at the very least betrayal did not seem likely due to that. But words were insufficient compared to actions down the road. ]


It is good you show loyalty towards our benefactor. We can't have anything impeding our mission.

Though, I assume that by you 'owing' him means that he gave you something for your assistance.

[ He'll finally stop looking around; there's nothing of interest in the immediate area. Or that was what he concluded so far. ]

Well, yeah. He brought me here and here I met... [ ..... ]

And he's nice to me too. [ He's not finishing the first thought because his feelings on that are just a mess right now. ]

Even if some of this stuff is boring. [ Byakuya has apparently concluded the same, Ledah having sufficiently chided him enough for him not to go grave robbing. ]

[ His brows furrowed a little as he waited for Byakuya to finish, but let it pass when he let the thread sort of dissipate on that. ]

He certainly could be far worse, but he isn't, and it's something to be appreciated on my end as well.

[ Forneus, with the power he had, could have always done worse. Make them more subservient, he imagined. ]

It appears that there are some matters we have the same opinion on, nonetheless.
