Everyone, if I may have your attention -

[She sighs slightly. This is probably better off as a voiced warning, though there's a touch of ... something in her voice. As if she's trying to keep it steady. Her eyes are closed, as she speaks.]

[Voice]... If I may have your attention, everyone. As of yet, we still are unaware of what to ( Read more... )

This is a farce comedy. It has more to do with the Celtics than the actual holiday of Halloween.

[voice] wise_maiden October 27 2010, 23:10:29 UTC

In what way would that be?

The Celtics believed that the sun went through periods of life, death and rebirth. The period of death occurred in October and it was called the Samhain, a form of New Years. In October the land of living and the dead would cross over and spirits would visit, as a part of the sun's death. Both evil and good. The peak of the cross over would come on the last day of October and Halloween was a ritualistic festival to ward off the spirits from causing chaos and harm.

That is why this is a farce. The sun no longer appears and animals are mysteriously dying. It is almost exactly as the Celtics depicted the time of this month in their stories.

... The New Year.

This time of year marks the beginning of the fourth cycle year. I wonder if that's a coincidence as well.

I cannot say anything on that matter - I only arrived in April. Has something like this ever occurred previous years?

[voice] wise_maiden October 27 2010, 23:24:28 UTC

Like this? Not exactly. I mean - there have been chaotic happenings, particularly during this time of year two years ago. But it's not the same.

It could be the Organization playing tricks on us by going off the Celtic myths. If they know of them that is. The fact that it is not the same exact thing occurring means that Luceti's world shouldn't be going off the Celtic myth on a yearly basis.

They likely do, considering the vast amounts of worlds represented, not just here in the enclosure, but outside of it as well. Usually the Shifts seem random, but if it has that many similarities, then it's one that was purposely meant to behave in this way.

[voice] kakeravoyager October 27 2010, 23:52:01 UTC

If things continue as they are then a festival may occur, just as in the Celtic myths, on the eve of the 31st.

Until then, the mist could be hosting some malevolent spirits. Either that or a second Shift that may behind these hallucinations.

[voice] wise_maiden October 28 2010, 00:03:34 UTC

Well... for the past two years, there were costumed balls held. Last year we were forced into attending. Those who left were attacked outside.

[...] Let us hope that will not be the situation. [Because Bern does not do parties, unless there is hard liquor involved.]

Despite warnings I am sure some fools will try to brave the mist. It is not something you can prevent.

[voice] wise_maiden October 28 2010, 03:01:30 UTC

I'm aware that warnings don't always reach everyone. The point is that I've tried - and sometimes situations are unavoidable - but at least something was said, in the hope that some will take it to heart.

[voice] kakeravoyager October 28 2010, 03:03:24 UTC

If wishes were horses, beggars would ride.

It is not something that you can control. Your hope is inspiring nonetheless.

[voice] wise_maiden October 28 2010, 06:24:47 UTC

I'm more than aware of that, believe me.
