Quest 132

Oct 20, 2009 18:05

Well, let's see. The good news is, I managed to make it as far as the Library, unscathed, before realizing what the curse was all about today. The, er, bad news is...well. Here I am, and there's a curse. And it's monsters again ( Read more... )

the perils of being rosella, so farfetched it's gotta be true, doom!tober, augh seriously wtf, i love my friends, curse: red like jungle burning bright, your princess is in another castle, deadlier than cupid's bow, unaffected, h is for hypocrite, this place is weird beyond belief, gotta love that optimism, a bit tied up at present, la femme rosella

Huh... those are certainly interesting theories. And not without reason... well, actually, in my homeworld, they would sound pretty impossible, but hey, this is the City!

... Peg-Fist Jack? Wandering Hangman?

primrosella October 21 2009, 16:54:30 UTC

If there's one thing I've learned in all my time here, it's that even the impossible can sometimes come true in a place like the City.

Mmhmm! He's a ghost pirate and the Hangman is his ship. Or so I've heard.

revengeisalie October 21 2009, 17:16:25 UTC

Yeah, you've got that right!

You have? Where from?

primrosella October 21 2009, 21:40:16 UTC

From the diary of his first mate, Leonard the Barnacle. I found it once, while looking through the Library. It was quite an interesting read!

Rin is... so buying it. revengeisalie October 21 2009, 21:43:56 UTC

Oh! So what was the story?

Sob, Rin. It's such a ludicrous story, too. primrosella October 21 2009, 22:09:08 UTC

Well, it seems that a very long time ago, when royalty still lived in the Palace here, Peg-Fist Jack and his crew of scalawags were the terror of the high seas. And one October, just around Halloween, they came and raided the Palace, hoping to make off with the treasure within. But the captain of the guard, LeBlanc, set a trap for them, and there was a great battle. The pirates got away with the treasure, but Peg-Fist Jack was mortally wounded, and now his ghost haunts the City this time of the year.

She just advised someone else to "never say 'impossible' in the City"... so. revengeisalie October 21 2009, 22:16:21 UTC

... a record of what was here before? No way!

In her defense, there was a "sometimes" condition in there, too. <3 primrosella October 21 2009, 22:20:20 UTC

Well, if you're willing to believe the word of a pirate, anyway.

<3 revengeisalie October 21 2009, 22:27:48 UTC

... right.

Anyway, I doubt records of the City's past would be that easy to come by.

primrosella October 21 2009, 23:18:42 UTC

Are you particularly interested in stories of the City's past, Rin?

revengeisalie October 21 2009, 23:32:46 UTC

Well, they'd constitute an important part of the whole puzzle, if they existed, no?

primrosella October 21 2009, 23:37:22 UTC

They would, and they'd be helpful in dealing with the future, too, I think. A few of my friends were working on a project concerning that, a short while ago--looking back through old Network entries and talking to the people that have been here the longest, looking for patterns and things.

revengeisalie October 24 2009, 09:57:19 UTC

... that sounds interesting.

Could I... talk to them?

primrosella October 24 2009, 15:49:48 UTC

Oh, of course, I don't see why not. Have you met Sam and Cain before? Sam Witwicky and Cain Hargreaves? They're the ones that were looking into it.

revengeisalie October 24 2009, 16:21:16 UTC

I do know Mister Cain Hargreaves, and Mister Sam Witwicky... maybe. I think.

primrosella October 24 2009, 17:28:29 UTC

Well, if you don't know Sam, it'll be no trouble at all to introduce you. He's my best friend, and we live together.
