Thylas

It was over as quickly as it started...

It is so peculiar.

I do not think I have said anything in...what, a week?

Such little time, yet so much. Three days were so precious.

Alma, Orion, I apologize in advance for what will possibly be happening at that temple. I have not worked out the details of this...rift, and it seems something went a little wrong.

I'll fix it, but it may take a few days.

This truly wasn't my intention. I don't know how I have managed this two times in just over a year. I've gotten rather sloppy with my work, haven't I?

"The eye sees only what the
mind is prepared to comprehend."

Eyes are sacred in many cultures. It is a window, so to speak. Sight is such a powerful sense to humans, "I will believe it when I see it". The one part of the body that can not lie. Even the most trained of humans tells the truth with their eyes. It is no wonder I find the eyes so fascinating. Those who have been punished by karma, I often blind them -- deprive them of this sense, by removing their eyes. And I keep them so when they are dead and wondering the afterlife, they have no sight.

I do not find eyes to be the most worthy of senses. Anyone who doubts me, go to Drachama, I have a way I can certainly test you. This challenge, would be, of course -- timed. And it is one of the jobs I will give to those who wish to partake. Remember, doing work for me earns you favor.

It is amazing how one simple thing can cause a massive chain of events that leads up to disaster. I fear what this place is becoming. There are no true spirits to execute their duty of punishment. I have become lax on what I am. I was one who commanded respect, but gets very little. No one believes in gods anymore. Even those that stand right before them.

I do not support dependence on sight for truth; eyes are deceptive creatures. Perhaps I am too accustomed to those who feared gods.

Things will change as they have always.

And I will continue watching. Just waiting, I suppose. There is more to happen.

I do wonder what Zhygure is up to. If he has returned to who he was when I first met him.

This miserable state is borne by the
wretched souls of those who lived without disgrace
and without praise.

And such truth those words ring. Things have changed terrible, and I have stopped caring whether or not the man responsible will meet the proper justice. If not here, then in a true afterlife of suffering.

Otherwise, this place has gotten boring, same routine. I think I may get people to do some work for me. Of course I will pay you and they are temporary contractual jobs if you will. But I haven't decided yet.

Maybe make them work for small things they desire. I must be in such a kind and good mood in order to think of offering people things.

Enjoy your peace and quiet while it lasts.

Enjoy your home, chaos. You certainly did not belong here for a moment. Mister Applegate. Quite an interesting fellow you were.

Charles, I know you're here, I'd like to meet with you. Riku, you as well. I could stand some company. If you need to bring others, that's fine, but please warn me.

...It happens. I am bound to this place, but I should just go. Home or away.

What keeps a god here anymore?

MakubeX, it is a deal. For obvious reasons, I will request payment first.

Orea...

I apologize. ... I suppose I will be adding to my collection very soon. I am anticipating it.

No sign of him yet. Tomorrow is another day. Zhygure - if you see this, let me know. I want to see you.

She's here. Of all the people I truly wished to see, it is her. Isn't she absolutely adorable and charming? ♥ My little sister.

Orea, don't hesitate to ask if you need something. I'm here to help you. ♥

   Amor, ch'a nullo amato amar perdona,
   mi prese del costui piacer sì forte,
   che, come vedi, ancor non m'abbandona.
       -- Dante's Inferno :: Canto V, lines 103-105
Love, which absolves no beloved one from loving, seized me so strongly with his charm that, as thou seest, it does not leave me yet.

It isn't worth any effort. I don't normally 'give up', but perhaps I should.

...Whatever.

Hm. Well...

...Right.

I do not know what to say.

How embarrassing.

...It could have been worse.

You could have seen --

It was --

Yes. It could have been worse.

I will be out tonight. Does anyone wish to have tea or coffee with me. I will provide it...

That was against the rules, Orea. You're not 'sposda teleport someone in tag. That's cheating. Cheating. I'm gonna tell mom on you, and then you'll be in oh so much trouble soon as I find out where I am.

And how t'leave. You're better than me at that, too.

[ a long pause ]

OREAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!

...Mommy...? I wanna go home.

Tag's boring and I promise I won't break the stuff again.

Unsettling.

I could take this time for search for her again.

Perhaps...if it does not offend. I will pick up the violin and play very soon.

Ana, I swear if this is a prank, it's a real good one. If it's little Emidus' fault, or if he's expressing his anger for me putting IT on a DVD labeled "Dawn of the Dead" by putting me in a random spot. ...You can come out now, seriously. Just because your wimpy-ass boyfriend can't handle the circus doesn't mean he can dump me in what looks like downtown just got set on fire.

This is taking it a bit too far, I think. I have work to do. Someone has to keep Ulli's business up and running. Seriously.

I hate computers sometimes.

[[ ooc: This post refers to :: this OOC post. It will appear under another name than Thylas on the Network. Her name: Remiel, but you won't know that until she introduces herself. She's very different from our god. And yes, he is doing this in order to kind of... ...socialize with others. ]]

O gene umana, per volar sù nata,
perché a poco vento così cadi?

   O human race, born to fly upward, wherefore at a little wind dost thou so fall?
       -- Dante's Purgatorio :: Canto XII, lines 95-96

I will be sure that everyone is aware that the creature inside of that house was not under my control. I did not bring him here. But Urado is gone. A fire was the solution.

Everyone is well, I presume? Safe? It impresses me that no one gets used to people coming and going frequently. Mortals are peculiar.

To those who are among the newcomers. Welcome to Purgatorium, I am Thylas. This is my domain. I'm in a pleasant mood. Feel free to ask any questions that you may have.

... I apologize.

It seems it was a dream of mine. I did not intend for the first time in over a thousand years that I slept to cause such a thing. It did not do it last time, at least.

As it is, it seems that this whole fiasco is over.

It would be best to pretend it did not happen.

Zhygure, if your jackets are violet lilac - somehow, then you may have one of my red ones.

Before anyone starts.

This is not entirely my fault. I...perhaps my youth...

has caused me to not have perfect control of my power.

I apologize.

Until I can fix it, bear with me.


[[ Rules are here. Also. Monsters may appear in funny ways (multiple colors, ribbons in hair, use your imagination). Power limitations and upper level restriction are lifted. There are balloons, there is confetti, there is many-a-things that do not normally exist in Purgatorium! But keep in mind, even if acquired during this event it will not exist after the event is over. Purg will go back to being the way it was. :) Fourth Wall is like a dream! Anyway, guys. Have fun! And thusly starts the event. ]]

I am highly displeased with the current situation. To be honest, people here seem highly incapable to handle any form of situations and prevent such massive amounts of damage. Not only that, but they seem to get irate when we decide to take it into our own hands. How else are these things meant to be handled if no one else wishes to. I am here to guide and watch, but if you fail to succeed – we will take care of it.

I am seeking out a few people for something. People who lack a connection to any of the current organizations, or those who are unemployed are preferred, but I will not say ‘no’ to anyone. This is of the utmost importance, I can assure you – and if you are unwilling to come forward, I will seek you out.

You did enjoy your storm, did you not? I do hope it should give you time to bond and get to know your fellow man. Fighting with one another is only sure to create future storms. And disobeying me can create far worse. After all, you are all suffering together.

I have some things I set up for you. Three places. Places where the truest lessons can be learned. You can get many valuable things.

Learn to trust yourself, your senses, everything in Drachama. It is not for the weak willed or weak at heart.

Obol and Chalkoi are dangerous. May I say I will be glad to see the first single person who goes it alone.

I have some games for everyone. Since I am not going to grant requests any further, you can earn things now. After all, I am a fan of helping those who put some effort into helping themselves.

For Drachama, defeating it appropriately can earn you my favor. Perhaps I will give you something you need. Obviously, nothing excessive, but a few bottles of water can be a treat in Purgatory.

In Obol and Chalkoi, there are going to be creatures, lurking around it, some will have medallions around their necks. These medallions can be turned in for monetary value. How much depends on the monster. This would be a suitable substitute for having a job, would it not? You can make money if you can kill enough monsters.

However, be warned, they are a challenge. Our most powerful of citizens could not kill a single one independently. I want a challenge. I want you to try. Redemption will not come easily.

More will appear. More for you to play with. You may even find some familiar faces among them. I'm still working.


[[ Teal;Dear OOC: A Description of the City Layout. Please know that the monster page is not complete and not all the links work. =X It's still a major WIP which will be posted when I'm done with it. But the dungeons are important. Click the links in the entry to understand the dungeons please. :) Also, for prizes, all are to be discussed with me. <3 Obviously. I can make a new post if an yone wants it for things like that. <3 Any amounts of medallions will be randomized.

Also, you may see some dopplegangers of yourselves...I'll get more info on the monsters, but keep note, they are VERY difficult as in Wice and Grimmjow can't rip them apart without some work. Also one of the new ones is this thing. :) More monsters coming soon. And the noise here are are here. Only used the ones I could find easy graphics of for visual~ ]]

...Unacceptable.

How does a goddess, just -- ... wonder off? And disappear?
