The Wheel Turns Once Again

Postby Nosnits » Sat Mar 28, 2020 4:03 pm

The Wheel of Time turns, and Ages come and pass, leaving memories that become legend. Legend fades to myth, and even myth is long forgotten when the Age that gave it birth comes again. In one Age, called the Third Age by some, an Age yet to come, an Age long past, a wind rose above the great city of Muffinville. The wind was not the beginning. There are neither beginnings nor endings to the Wheel of Time. But it was a beginning. The wind blew down the streets, past cafes closed for the weekend, magic shops bursting with ancient artifacts, towers of impossible heights. It twirled, picking up a few cherry blossoms as it blew past a young-ish man.

Nos rubbed at his arms a bit. "Yikes, it's a little chilly. I thought it's supposed to be spring." He shivered from the sudden wind, glancing around. It had been . . oh, at least an ice age or two since he had been here, it felt. Or maybe less. Probably, most certainly less than that.

Now there's a face I haven't seen here in a while!

*Ambush drops to the ground nearby out of... well, who-knows-what, and walks up to him.*

Yo, Nossy! How've you been?

Nos looks up, and then down. Right, people did just sort of materialize out of thin air, didn't they?

"I've been well enough, Ambush? What's up with you?"

It was good to see a familiar face, even of the feline variety.

Not much, and... surprisingly a lot, if that even makes sense. *shrugs* Not as much people as there used to be, and the local powers have been taking advantage of that.

*Fading in nearby.* Did you guys know that giant wheel you are all stuck on was spinning wildly just a moment ago? Had to file paperwork to get a service technician to agree to tighten it back to spec.

Huh. I was wondering what that breeze was supposed to be. Thanks, Raleigh.

Nos blinks and uses this chance to climb down from the wheel.

"Thanks, Raleigh. I sometimes forget how this place even works. I should know, I used to be on the council."

He turns back to Ambush. "No, you're right, that does make sense. There's a vacuum, and there have always been those that were more power-hungry than not. I hope you're keeping things in check."

Trying to, anyway. From the sounds of it you've been out of the game for a while, so I'll give an update on recent events. Or relatively recent.

Back in 2017, Colonel Caprice and a bunch of those associated with her decided to retire and leave (events depicted here). Among other things, this meant that the old Brotherhood was left leaderless, since people like Snow Dragon and Himitsu are long gone. So, my old boss Callista got permission from Caprice to take over the Brotherhood and make it her own. Since Calli's too moralistic to make a truly good antagonist, one of her stalkers created an evil child double of her that runs the place in her stead. She's managed to corral the Ovalisks and make them part of the Brotherhood's forces.

*voice turns female* In other news, I resurrected the Goddess of Nature and adopted her as my sixth child. That was fun. >^_^<

*voice heard in the far distance* Cram it, fuzzball! He doesn't need to know that!

*continues on as if Viridi hadn't shouted at all* Also she and the Brotherhood are fighting each other now, but that's not important. Continuing on, remember Lord Bones? He decided to drop out, too (events, such as they are, depicted here). Didn't know him too well, but he seemed like a pretty swell guy.

On a slightly more entertaining note: Whatevr and Raleigh fished out a near-dead Blue dragon-girl out of a lake outside Muffinville (events depicted here). This is important because with the Blue Shard's destruction last year, she's become one of the largest sources of Blue on the Muffin Continent.

There's other stuff, of course, but that's all I can think of off the top of my head.

Well, I already have that position for the rest of your brood. Might I offer my services in this case as well?

Don't see why not. Certainly.

*off in the distance* I am... conflicted.

No, that is one of the names of my angel. Your name is Viridi. *To Ambush.* Excellent. I'll try to keep her on the straight and narrow. Well as much as you can a planet given that they tend to prefer to orbit things.

*grins* Yeah. In her case, she tends to orbit her main in Smash Ultimate.

I wasn't kidding when I said his cheekbones could cut glass!
