[Jaunt] Early August 28th

[willyousee]

It is now or never. We must do all that we can to protect these towns. I should like to organize groups to inscribe or paint sigils and protective runes and any other useful protections across as many of the buildings in town as physically possible. Protective charms against intrusions of the mind, especially. The eyes have come, and that is where everything took a terrible turn for the worse the last time.

Who has knowledge of things which might assist here, or would be willing to help in the purchase or application of materials? We must act quickly.

Those of you with deeper knowledge of the horrors - the fountain in the sinkhole before the theater. If it is similar to the ones which appeared in liminal space so long ago, it may be that it can be stopped up using the same sigil that was left there before the Priestess erased the entrance. We have no valence with which to do that, but we might be able to seal it.

Give me a time for the sinkhole, and I'll be there. The more of us make the sigils, the stronger it'll be. These shits don't like people workin' together like that.

I'll see what I can do around the city, too. Anybody can meet me in liminal at sunset if they want to share whatever supplies I've got.

[fridgeninja]

The same sign...

Alcuin-san, can you show me what that sign looked like? I have an idea...

[thornsofmalkav]

Alcuin nó Delaunay, you beautiful delinquent, you.

I don't know anything more than what you pick up being a gamer or being friends with yolotubers in this world, but if you draw me what we're supposed to be spray painting, I can make some stencils out of manilla folder.

[willyousee]

Not over the Network. There are too many things watching. Come to Thistle House and I'll demonstrate. Actually...

[willyousee]

Anyone who wishes to learn how to draw the protections, gather at Thistle House at 1 pm! If you know of villagers who believe or wish to know as well, tell them that it is a seminar on paranormal protections and it will run from 1-2 pm every day this week. The more people put these up themselves the more it will hide our actions.

[helborn]

Show me what they look like, and I can do some of it. I can climb and fly, so when it gets dark I can try to get up on top of buildings, too.

[willyousee]

I am headed to the inn now. I will show you what I can, and if others come as well then we can exchange information. Roofs and gables may be the best place to leave them, where people will not notice right away or take them down.

[helborn]

That was my thinking, yeah. We should get a map of the city, mark off sections, so we're not getting in each others' way and so we can cover the most amount of ground possible.

[willyousee]

I will draw one up before we go. You reach out to them and tell them to come. If we cannot get the word out through their videos, they may still have a following. They can spread the word of the seminar through other means. And they have already shown that their antipossession runes work.

[willyousee]

Early morning would be best, I think... Perhaps 3 or 4, when most are asleep and we may work relatively unhindered. I have some small magics that may aid in distracting any who come to investigate the hole.

Where are you now? I should like to acquire templates for those signs I do not know.

[willyousee]

Excellent idea. There are plenty of maps, it being a tourist town. Though Elua knows why anyone would wish to come to this gods-forsaken place. We may be intercepted by the government agents or their lackies, and will need to be prepared for that.

[helborn]

... I've broken out of handcuffs and cop cars before, I'll be fine. I can show you guys where to kick to break a window, if you need to.

[willyousee]

[...well that's good to know.]

I would rather it not come to that, but all knowledge is worth having. I would be glad to learn of it.

[helborn]

Well yeah, but plan for the worst and hope for the best, right?

[willyousee]

Precisely. Allow me an hour and I shall meet you at the inn.

[helborn]

You work fast. I'll be waiting.

[willyousee]

I...

[willyousee]

Thank you. I do my best. I'll see you there.

[thornsofmalkav]

Yeah, sure. I can do the thing. I'm texting Skye right now, actually.

Hey, will you be okay if I just make the stencils and play secretary at your meeting? If it was just me I had to worry about, I'd totally go vandalizing shit for great justice with you, but Dr. Durante has an academic career and I'd rather she still have it when I'm done.

[willyousee]

Of course. Perhaps you can see about convincing James to allow us use of the inn's common room for the next few days.

[thornsofmalkav]

I'll do that. Shit, I guess if I have to, I'll even rent it out. I'll dip into Dr. Durante's con fund. It's not like she'll be able to go if Harrogate is still quarantined or everyone is dead because of malicious ghost bullshit.

[comebewe]

How effective were the wards last time?

[itsananimalthing]

You really think anybody's sleeping after that? 'Sides, I'd think after dawn would be better. Darkness is their time not ours, and workin' after their peak hours might work in our favor. Maybe right at sunrise?

I can meet you by the museum. Or Vilari's pastry shop, if you know where that is.

[haremtrap]

I can help, like, draw symbols and stuff.

I felt completely worthless for the last two jaunts, and I want to DO something this time, but I'll I've done so far has just felt like wandering around in the dark.

[elevatoravatar]

Do you mean setting up an elder sign? I have read some books and spoken to one who has fought a great old one on many occasions.
