WEEK ONE, SATURDAY

[killerwaves]

INVESTIGATION(?)

Exciting night, no? Were you able to get to sleep, or did you stay up into the wee hours, seeing that far-off shimmer near the gazebos and listening to the rising rumble of whatever-that-is and wondering when it would come for you?

At least, when dawn finally comes and the shimmer is overcome by the rising light of the sun, it seems that last night wasn't the end. For you.

Instead, once it's morning proper, there's a shift -- like the breeze and the smell after a bout of sudden summer thunderstorm without the storm: the pressure and the oppressive atmosphere of yesterday is gone, just like that. But also: accompanying it a few seconds later is a clean whipcrack of sound, like giant hands clapping together. And a moment after that, you'll feel something pass overhead -- you won't be able to see anything, but anyone outside at the time will find themselves staggered by what seems to be a small shockwave spreading throughout the island.

That's not the only change that awaits you this morning, however.

You might want to get out of bed, if you haven't already, and take a proper look around.

(( OOC: Welcome to our peace week Saturday event, islanders! Please note that this will be run similarly to a normal investigation, but will not be a full investigation. As such, everyone is welcome to explore for the first part of the event, and then we will take a limited amount of people for the second half, investigation-style. ))

[ magolor is apparently something of a night owl, so he was up when that fun little whip crack of reality falling apart at the seams happened. joy.

which means he also gets toppled off of whatever rooftop perch he was on in the main resort area proper, but at least he manages to catch himself before landing?

now, to let the protag types handle it again ... or see what the hell it is now, considering the disturbance seems to have reached the entire island anyway. well, might as well take the meandering route closer, passing by the pool first.

(did only they feel that shockwave, or did it disturb other things on the island too?) ]

[But was it reality falling apart at the seams? Godspeed, roof Magolor.

At the pool, he'll probably see Crea! And absolutely nothing else, not even a seagull taking a dip.

That said, the fauna on the island does seem pretty up in arms since the shockwave -- it certainly disturbed the birds, they're rustling and calling up a storm out there. At least it seems most of them are present and no longer hiding?]

Good morning!

[ he waves, way too chipper for the situation. ]

Nice day for a disaster!

[microtransactions]

[ 'reality' falling apart, or just sonic running by... hm.

magolor just ambles on by with a sigh. ]

Morning! Can't wait to see what the grasping void has in store for us now.

[dakicover]

Oh, I'm sure at least a few horrors are in store for us.

[ but gotta keep the positive mood! ]

Could be worse, at least it looks like the birds are back with us.

[ causing a racket. ]

[microtransactions]

Fun! Though given what we think the heat haze yesterday might have been after ...

It disappearing sure doesn't bode well for what might have happened, probably!

[dakicover]

Yeah...probably not a good omen. Maybe someone decided to test this island's nature...

[ and welp, they get the announcement. ]
