third labyrinth

Who: Felix Harrowgate
Broadcast: Fleet-wide video!
Action: Starstruck, if you want.
When: Today-ish?

[Today Felix prepares to do something that has the ring of familiarity to it for him, and anyone else who had once known him in Paradisa. The setting is different, of course, but old habit die incredibly hard, and he craves a little bit of what once was. Something that can distract him. He sets up the device on the kitchen table and reclines back against the wall.]

Greetings, fleet members. [He smiles, a bright thing reminiscent of politicians and celebrities]

I happen to know there is a good number among us here that practice magic or exhibit a talent reminiscent as such, and that many more of us still are deprived the company of our peers back home.

Before I came here, I organized a group of magic-users and thought the fleet could benefit from something similar. We had wider goals at the time, but I think here it will be far more about simply getting to know one another. [Though, if he isn't kidding himself, most of what they did was get together and drink] Perhaps there are things we can learn from each other, or perhaps it can simply serve as a source of solidarity.

If no one would be opposed, I'd like to organize more regular meetings, hosted in the Bishop's library to start, assuming our librarian wouldn't be opposed. Though, in the long run, I'd prefer to convert a space specifically for our use. The Starstruck's cargo hold, if nothing else. We aren't using it for anything else. [He briefly longs for the castle, and imagines a comfortable space full of chairs, rugs, and bookshelves.]

In the meantime, I'd like to know who might be interested in such a thing and to meet any of you with such talents that I haven't yet had the pleasure to speak to. [Which is probably half the fleet by now, but he's a patient man, when he wants to be]

((ooc: this is an organizing post for future possible mage mingle club that will probably happen later in the month.))

And these are all things that you've seen people using?

Yes, I do. Many of them are...appeals, in a way, to greater powers.

It's a little different than that. Rather...

[Hm, how to put it. Shirley's not exactly an expert on how it works, but for the sake of contribution she ought to try.]

Other forces are personified without being revered, like an object of prayer. It's those forces that people usually call upon.

Well...in my world, the source of eres comes from the blessings of the sea, Nerifes, and magic is one way that blessing takes form. But many people who use eres don't even know of Nerifes' existence, and instead they call upon the comets or the storm. Even the Ferines do it, in fact, and the Ferines all follow the will of Nerifes.

Totally fine, I backtag forever!

Ah, no...they're a race of people. Mine, actually.

The Ferines once lived in the sea, and Nerifes is the sea itself. If there was a time where they weren't close, it predates all known Ferines history.

[personal profile] hearsthesea 2015-08-11 04:58 am (UTC)(link)
Yes, it is. The others on my world, the Orerines...some of them are able to use eres as well, but it's only a recent development and much less common than among the Ferines.
hearsthesea: (I like us the way we are)

[personal profile] hearsthesea 2015-08-18 03:43 am (UTC)(link)
Of course not. I'd like to see a demonstration of yours as well, if it isn't too much trouble.

It doesn't have to be spectacular. Thank you - I look forward to meeting you personally in the future.
