( closed ) PLAYER PLOT: STILL WATERS

[dashing]

WHO: Alistair, Herian, Myr, Nell, Prompto, Saoirse, Wren.
WHAT: ( Plot post ) Shady rumours concerning the Tranquil lead to a remote Circle in the Northern Anderfels. Its relative isolation from the rest of Thedas has prevented news from reaching the Inquisition sooner. Our crack team investigates.
WHEN: forward dated, around 21st-ish Cloudreach
WHERE: Salzklippe, the Anderfels.
NOTES: Content Warning for violence, murder, and other grim Dragon Age things. The grief demon threads in particular include themes of death, suicide, and gore. Please add additional warnings to subject lines where necessary.

— Making the approach (group thread) — Into the catacombs (individual starters) — Discovering the lake (group thread) — Into the tower (individual starters) — Bossfight (multiple group-ish) — Later Stuff (individual starters) FOR GROUP THREADS: in order to keep threads moving, I will be aiming to do a GM tag once every 24 hours. Don't worry about a strict tagging order, but please don't tag more than three times every 24 hours, just to make sure no one gets left behind.

"It means someone went looking for the Maker and wound up completely around the bend," Alistair says, ever so helpful, leaning in to look as well—not at the individual words, he trusts Prompto's ability to read, but the repetition. But maybe it wasn't the work of a single person. He certainly hopes not. "It's from the Chant."

No devotion there. Only nine years of involuntary religious training.

He hasn't forgotten about his own heavy hints of darkspawn, either. Hardly could if he wanted to. But he's pondering the question, can we avoid them—pondering and wondering at their numbers. He can't avoid them. That doesn't mean no one else can.

Further down the passageway, a faint echoing can be heart. A clattering sort of sound, tinny as it bounces off the walls. There are darkspawn close by - whether they are drawing closer is hard to immediately determine.

The echoes come, and then sudden silence. That can only be a good sign, right?

Prompto glances uneasily down the corridor towards the source of the sound. "...should we start... running?"
