💭 What happened last week? 💭
Last week in Lumina Falls! Finally, Ashton Sinclaire was granted the opportunity to reunite with his mother, a connection that successfully brought back a wave of memories for the forgetful twin. Loving moments were shared, but cut short as the Sinclaire family had to struggle with the secrets that the town holds. Casey was visited by an old friend in her dreams, warning her of the dangers that lurk deep in the forest, whilst Rick had a sentimental moment with his mother, simply trying her best. In quite a contrast, both Taylor children spoke to their father and took one step further from reuniting with him as they continue to realise the path that he has chosen. At night, all of the kids were faced by a haunting nightmare from the things that seek to destroy their town. It was a heated topic of conversation as to how they would respond, but all of that was dwarfed when the town was hit by a terrifying earthquake that's left the whole party, and the whole town, just a little shaken (pun most definitely intended).
Last week in Murderous Misfits! Rose, lost in the depths of the feywild, cane across the crossroads where the courts of the feywild intersected and there she was assured that she would make it home with her friends (and was casually named the protector of the feywild. You know... casual). Reemerging from the feywild, the group discovered that they had come back into the material plane two weeks earlier than they had left it, giving them a chance to fix everything that they had lost. They were able to save all of the NPCs who had sacraficed themselves, find extra information that they had missed the first time around, and rescue many of the commoners who were obliterated in the destruction of Onyx. Kora also found out that her mother, who she cannot remember, had retired to Arksar, which also happened to be the location of the final child of the devourer. With a clear path in mind, the group made their way there. Kora found herself lovingly reunited with her mother, and Ava, surprisingly, found herself reunited with her brother. Perhaps a little less lovingly...
Extra Bonus End Bit
I thought I'd take this opportunity to ask a favour of you all. Hopefully, you know already that Dragon is our new mascot, but Dragon needs a name! So head over to our discord to suggest a name; over the week the exec will pick their top 5 names and then you will get to vote on your favourites! (Please don't be too cursed thank you very much <3)
Hydrate, don't diedrate, have a good week, and I'll see you next time! 💜
