Who: Anyone who wants in on the aftermath of a sort-of-murder*.
Broadcast: Maybe some!
Action: It varies!
When: After a couple people had a Very Bad Day.

[so, on the Station, there was a bit of a fight involving a couple of elves and a demi-god, and someone got their heart crushed (quite literally).

the audience loved it! ratings skyrocketed! and there's probably some good gossip to be had.

if anyone wants to catch the participants after it's all over, or wants a place to hold their own conversations or interactions related in any way to the aftermath, this is the place to do it.]


[[OOC: said murder is here (contains mild gore and the cheery topic of slavery/owning people, just as a warning).]]

Don't worry. You two will be the first to know.

[Because if he breaks through the ship, you two are his last hope for talking a crazy elf out of murdering everyone. I MEAN- yes. right. Keep an eye out...]

I found him! You asked me to let you know if he said anything?

[wilder]

You did?

Great...I think! What happened?

[yourdistraction]

Robin was keeping a slave.

[wilder]

WHAT

[THIS JUST KEEPS GETTING WORSE AND WORSE]

[yourdistraction]

That's what he said. I'm afraid I don't know much else, but at least we know Fenris had cause.

[wilder]

I take it he really hates slave owners.

[Not that he can blame him, but goddess. This whole thing is a mess.]

[yourdistraction]

[ Merrill is reluctant to share too much, but...it's quite relevant at the moment. ]

He was a slave. He suffered many things. They even perverted the idea of the vallaslin by using lyrium instead of blood, against his will. He said it caused him such agony.

[wilder]

[Welp there it is. That explains pretty much everything]

...Yeah. I'd imagine that'd make you hate slave owners enough alright.

Vallaslin. Those...fancy tattoos you guys got, you mean? What's lyrium?

[yourdistraction]

They're Dalish tattoos, or they're meant to be. They're a rite of adulthood.

Lyrium is a unique source of power. A great enhancer of magic. It's mined as any ore can be, but one mustn't touch it unless they're a dwarf. It's quite...deadly to mages, and can harm any human or elf, mentally or physically.

[wilder]

[Great. So...like an ore version of exspheres.]

Ghastly. And some guy thought hey, let's tattoo a slave with this stuff. See what happens. That's not horrific or evil at all.

[People sure did suck sometimes]

So I take it that means Robin mentioned owning slaves and...Fenris understandably flipped.

[yourdistraction]

I suppose! I didn't ask for many details beyond that.

[ That is quite a touchy subject, understandably. ]
