[Iteration One - Phase One - "Find Your Liberty"]
Quote:Finally, we've arrived.
It's been quite a journey, awaiting landfall. I expect our arrival wouldn't have gone without notice. I didn't expect a welcoming party, but the confusion certainly seems to have settled in proper.The city is - frankly - in disarray, and finding oneself around is an arduous task in and of itself. As expected, the landmass is considerably larger than Sarea; We can use this to our advantage.Whilst scouts comb the continent, the Primes busy themselves on integrating themselves within their associated Courts. Everything is going to accord - Save for a few snags.The outer infrastructure is lacking, and current topography is proving treacherous to circumnavigate, that makes it difficult to establish a meeting zone outside the walls - However we have since adapted.We should focus on further involving ourselves in the social politics of the city, but make due care not to arise suspicion. The revelation of the Abyss brings upon us new science as well as the surfacing of untold paranoia, and we should be wary to mention our past dealings with the extraplanar with individuals non-trusted.

Quote:Even still..
I can't help but be entranced by the beauty of this place - Stonework crafted by master masons, blocks upon blocks of housing, (I refuse to comment about the affordability currently) Learned individuals from across every race.. The only thing I keep hearing of consistency however, is the brutality of the Constabulary.
The law has never been one of our allies, back on the islands we dealt with this our own way - Courts and juries didn't work out. I don't intend to get on the bad side of the judicial system, but if the rumors I hear are true, then I must warn the rest to steer clear.
The Court of Eyes seems like the most open minded of the bunch - A coterie of scientists, researchers, mages and mad geniuses all congregated under one roof with enough abstract ideals between one another to confuse an Empyrean. I can deal with these people.
When it comes to politics, I'm going to stay put - Cutting someone with a smile is best left to the rogues of diplomacy - for now, it's better to err on the brighter side of the law, and gather allies in our quest for independence.

Quote:For now?Bide our time. The atrophying has still yet to undo itself, but the suffusement of ambient mana in this area is downright intoxicating. Already, I can feel life return to my taut facial features, and a renown vigor jigger itself through my very marrow.
I celebrated the occasion by spending a bit of my dwindling coin on some new clothing, topping it off with a tasteful bronze headpiece. I feel as if I should be afforded a bit of vanity now and again.
Even now as I sit on this foreign soil and gaze along the countryside, I can't help but feel at some semblance of peace. This place.. It's full of wonders untapped, I can feel it.Maybe that's why many flocked here - Perhaps it truly isn't mere coincidence, that we all find ourselves trampling upon new blades of grass, ready and willing to subject this untainted soil with the poison of our alien ideals.I like it here.I think I'll stay a little while longer, yet.- R
