[open] If I could store lightning in jars
Who: Sora & OPEN
Where: The mysterious dark forest that appeared!
When: June 1
What: Bright "fireflies” have been luring gods and shinki alike deep into the forest. People are suddenly drawn to the little spots of light and can’t help but follow. There have been reports of screams and unhappy spirits and people never returning. All you know is that the sun doesn’t pierce the treetops and it’s dark.
Warnings: There's lots of creepy demons and stuff!!
[ A ]
[A sudden cold and heavy rain starts. Light and whimsical at first before it starts to pour down in thick sheets. Gray clouds blanket the sky and the sun is nearly blotted out. The atmosphere suddenly darkens and a chill is in the air.
Through the dark Sora notices some sparks of light somewhere near. They’re like candles flickering and dancing through the haze of the rain. A small smile pulls at his lips as he’s suddenly drawn to them like a moth to a flame. All he wants to do is reach out and touch one. They look like fairies.
You might notice Sora wandering through the rain, a blurry image of him slowly walking just out of your reach. Then he vanishes into the dark forest.]
[ B ]
[Perhaps it is you that got drawn into the bright dancing lights. Pulled into the woods as it makes your heart hammer. All you can focus on is the unseen force pulling your legs as you wander closer to the woods.
And suddenly everything is dark.
Sora manages to catch a glimpse of you before you vanish and he calls out.]
Hey!! Wait!! Don’t go in there!
[And promptly chases after you to stop you from falling deeper into darkness.]
[ C ]
[As soon as Sora enters the woods the rain stops. Or so it seems that way. He can still hear the thundering water in his ears but it sounds muted now. Like someone has put a blanket over the heavens and all he can hear is the thin thudding of the rain but no raindrops touch his face anymore.
He wanders through the woods as he looks up at the treetops to find that small beams of light do flicker through. Weakly, but they’re there. The gloom is still heavy.
His feet take him in a random direction until he spots a figure in the distance… Someone already lost here like him, or is that a tortured spirit...?]
[ wildcard! ]
[something else in mind?]

[Sorry Lu Meng, Sora is hankering to get out of here. He's tired of how the place makes his skin crawl.
He runs ahead and towards the light and he feels as if his lungs might burst and then there's a flash of white.
Of bright sunlight.
His running slows to a stop and he finds himself in a grassy field with only the June sun above their heads.]
We made it!!
no subject
We did. It's good that we got out, but please be careful. That could've been an ambush.
no subject
[And Sora then decides to collapse onto his back onto the grassy space and stretches out like a star.]
The sun feels so good...
no subject
We don't know who we're dealing with there. There could have been other, more powerful enemies lurking within that forest.
no subject
Yeah I guess you're right... I still don't know or remember how I even got in there. One second I was looking at the sky the next...
[He lifts the pulled grass and lets the wind catch it.]
Thank you, Lu Meng. Really. I'm sorry I caused so much trouble for you. I'll be more careful and I'll try and find out more about what happened here. Maybe another god knows.
no subject
It was no trouble at all. I was interested in exploring the forest as well, and it so happens our paths crossed.
If you decide to investigate the forest again, bring a companion with you, preferably your shinki. It will be safer to have someone keeping a lookout with you than to go on alone.
no subject
He nods and hauls himself to his feet to go home.]
You got it. If I find myself this way again I'll make sure I'm not alone.
See you later, Lu Meng. Tell your goddess I'm sorry for keeping you so long.
[And with that he heads off.]
