Day 1 - Morning

[wizardseason]

Morning: 06:00am - 12:00noon

[ IRL Timeframe: February 18th - February 25th, 2019 ]

The day begins quietly, with no indications that anything strange could occur today. The Princess and the Knights have all arrived on the island. Maybe you arrived a few days ago or maybe you just got off your red-eye flight before the sun came up. Everyone's on Harsen Island and so is the Wizard.

Things start simpler for Luka Eutychia, Olivia Walkyr, and Rory Honeycomb. The instant they set foot on the island, Olivia and Rory will both get an image of Luka in their heads and realize that they are the good-allured knights and he's the Princess. Luka, meanwhile, will see both Olivia and Rory in his thoughts and realize they're the good allured knights.

The Weather

Prompts:

• 6:00am: It's the early morning celebration van! In all three towns, someone's driving around a vehicle playing blaring music and shouting "Let's go Knights! Let's go Princess! Beat that Wizard!". Seems like someone wants the heroes to succeed, hopefully your characters weren't sleeping. If you confront them, maybe they'll have something to say?



• 8:00am: Far Haven: All Knights and the Princess are invited to a big breakfast banquet. Come one, come all! Maybe meet some of the locals? Maybe chat with your fellow heroes? All knights are given lanyards, but the princess gets a lanyard and a crown if he's here, and they're all seated at the big hero table.



• 9:30am: Bamborough: All Knights and the Princess are invited to an oceanside brunch! Wether they live in Bamborough or they live elsewhere and visited here, they're welcome to eat the brunch and participate in waterfront games. Thank the resort owner for this welcome! Or chat it up with your fellow heroes by the water. By now everyone should be full.



• 11:00am: Craydon: Craydon's welcome is much more modest, the locals have invited the Princess and his knights to the local Multipurpose Center. They've set out a spread of light appetizers, chips and dips, vegetables and spreads, fresh breads and cheeses, modest drinks. It's the least extravagant of the welcomes but the locals are still here to meet and greet everyone. With a smile and a handshake they wish everyone the best of luck. How are you and your fellow heroes holding up with all this attention? Did you skip all these events? Attend all of them?



• 11:30am: The Wizard (Year 40 She/Her/Hers) strides in to the Craydon Multipurpose Center with her hands in her pockets and casually looks around the room with a gentle smile on her face and huge bags under her eyes. Her eyes are black with cyan sparkles in them, looking very much like outer space itself as she scans the room and everyone in it. Good luck for anyone here, they get first dibs on seeing the Wizard. She'll be shuffling around the multipurpose center in her light blue pajamas and bunny slippers, occasionally adjusting her tiny glasses as she looks around. At least she's got her wizard hat on so no one could miss what she looks like this year. It's a shocking difference from the big muscled dude (Year 39 He/Him/His) she was last year or the slick suit-wearing smooth talker (Year 38 They/Them/Theirs) they were the year before but it's still absolutely the same wizard.

Comments

"Exactly! I don't want to worry about groceries when we've got monsters to fight!" This one understands! But then he scoffs, and his expression gets a bit more unpleasant. "Did you get woken up by that van this morning?" One of Garrot's eyebrows twitches.

"That was a pain in my ass." He sounds very unhappy with this. "I mean, I hope they don't come back tomorrow, we have alarms for a reason!" And then he sighs. He's an old man, he needs his beauty sleep, not a bunch of stupid hoodlums shouting! But a moment after the sigh, he simply shakes his head and smiles weakly.

"S-sorry." The doctor is trying to raise spirits, not rain on them...

[roaryrory]

Rory's spirits haven't been rained on at all, in fact, she's not sure why he's apologizing. She decides not to question him about it, however, since... well, back home, she sometimes finds herself apologizing for absolutely no reason. Maybe it's a similar situation.

"Oh yup, the van was there but I was already awake! I just thought they were nice people," she says. She's not happy to hear they did wake Garrot up, still. "Though, yeah, maybe it was a bit early for them to be there..."

[daddykong]

"You were already awake?" His tone is sheer disbelief, and the furrowing of his brow might imply a hint of disgust. Garrot's too old for this shit. "When I was your age, this wasn't a problem." He pauses, raising an eyebrow because he's not sure how old Rory is or where he actually was in his life at her age.

"The time zones are literally killing me right now." And then his eyes go wide since, well... "Yeesh, bad joke."
