[MU] - MARCH STORYTELLING
The world is silent, and the dream-night is absolute. The Storyteller has no commentary to offer you, or warnings to venture, or anything else. There is only the drape of Mu's night and the vision of a campfire, and the means with which you might tell your stories.
In the waking world, Cahypdo still awaits. After tonight, Monsun will once again vanish. What happens until then is all routine...
It is time, once more, for you to tell a story. The setting will be familiar for oldcomers, and newcomers will recognize it from the introduction they received in their dreams. This too is a dream, and the ink-black dark is illuminated only by the bonfire surrounded by log seats. And seated around the fire are your fellow islanders, many of whom doubtless know the drill by now.
One by one, you will each have the opportunity to share your stories, as stories possess a certain undeniable power. Newcomers can tell whatever tale they wish, but for those who have been in LifeAftr for at least one Storytelling, only stories of their time in LifeAftr will count down the road. The story need not be long, or conventional, or even verbal; as long as the Storyteller knows it has been told, it will qualify. Those of the nonverbal persuasion have, as of a request issued by Ren (catpiper), an alternative means of telling their stories if they so choose, in the form of the Chamber of Glyphs.
If you prefer to keep your mouth shut, that's always an option, though you're more liable to benefit if you do. Perhaps you'd rather not relive any of your history, varied and variegated as it must be. Or maybe you're something of a compulsive un-truther, prone to embellishments and long, fanciful tangents. As long as the core of the story is true to its spirit, you are free to spin your tale however you like.
So choose well.

Character Name: Kravitz
Character Journal:
Number of Offerings: 2
Offering(s):
- The first is a mention of the large rootwyrms that were trying to eat everyone at the top of the month, and a nod to Starlight for his involvement in Kravitz not getting eaten. He appreciates it, truly.
- The second is a belated shout out for the lunar new year festival and a thanks to Mollymauk specifically for their discussion about culture. He thought about saying cultural exchange and then realized that was a horrible sentence and backtracked mid word, which probably did nothing to make it sound better. Close enough.
