DUNGEON - BELLMARE ENCLAVE (BELLMARE MOUNTAINS, PT 2)

The shadows are starting to grow very long as you crest his particular ridge - it's not night yet, but it will be soon. In the shadows of the afternoon, with a tall mountain already blocking the sun, lies a snow-covered valley that is different from the ones you've come across thus far in your investigation.

This valley is home to a town, and unlike all the settlements you've seen so far - Incendia, the Telovia mining town, and the manor - it's very much active. There are actual people in the streets, visible from above, going through their days on snow-free streets, bundled up against the cold.

Those of you who asked were told of the handful of people who didn't go into the slumber of stasis as the Fissure conditions of the world grew worse and worse, instead isolating themselves and trying to continue living their lives as they could. Now, it seems, you've found exactly such a group.

Welcome to the Bellmare Enclave, and enjoy your stay.

[[OOC: Welcome to part 2 of the dungeon! For the most part, interaction with the town's NPCs can be handwaved as described on the main information post. Worth noting are the following major things: The Bellmare Enclave isn't expecting visitors, though the people are generally friendly to the new arrivals. They don't know about the time dilation effect of their Fissure - to them, it's only been about eighteen years since the Slumber Plan was put in place and they withdrew from the world. And finally, by a similar token, they have no idea how far the Fissures outside of their own have grown - while it's not uncommon for them to find odd objects from time to time, they'll assume that the characters are just arrivals from other places within their own world, rather than outsiders, until told otherwise.]]

What...

[Marie hesitates, crossbow arm pointed to the ground. She watches, taking in all the details.]

Who or what was that?

[She might be surprised to see the man that was just the source of his own personal light show with his entire right leg in a splint and slumped against the nearest wall, using one of the crystal outgrowths for support as he blinks away the spots dancing through his vision.]

That's not... [His voice is strained, shaking slightly. The last thing he ever wanted to relieve was the death of his King.] That's not what happened.
liveofftheland: Disappointed. (hey sophie come translate this)

I can see that. These things don't seem to like what did.

[She's not going to press on his vision, at least, but she does walk over.]

Or at least don't like showing it.

These things? You make it sound like there's something conscious behind all of this.
liveofftheland: Annoyed. (nope still not going back there)

No clue if there is or not. If there isn't, it's really specified, like a curse.

A curse? Who would make a curse that makes you remember things wrong? And if you know it's wrong what's the point even?
