It’s an ordinary day—so not a very pleasant one. The weather is dreary and muggy, and the day’s lunch is a soup that’s a little too watery and bland. The griffons are being their usual level of noisy and swoopy. The work is its usual level of urgent and difficult.

But in the storage rooms, something wiggles. Then it hums. Then it pops.

Outside of the storage room, there’s no actual sound, no shift in the wind, and no visible sign of a change. But the pop might be felt—like the moment something finally clicks, or two ideas suddenly fit together, except the opposite. In the heads of everyone in the fortress, something is suddenly not connected quite right.

The first sign of what’s gone wrong is that someone immediately stands up and tells the cook how bad the soup is.

A lot of people’s days are about to get exponentially worse.

[ For a moment, Alexandrie just looks at her. Then, a small wry smile twitches at the corner of her mouth. ]

You have an exciting repository of crystal messages to listen to whilst you finish that mending.

( the small noise of disgust, )

What are you talking about? What's going on now?

( and then, mildly aggrieved, ) I should think it'd do everyone a bit of good to say what they fucking mean for once.

The cause remains unknown, but all on the island seem to have developed varying degrees of compulsory engagement in saying what they fucking mean for once.

Which I am sure is doing a bit of good for those who do not know dangerous or inconvenient things that might be forcibly divulged where the rank and file might hear them [ say: the Division Heads, any number of spies, (one particular spy), ] or those whose sudden violent abandonment of the small degree of politicking they are capable of does not spark further ill-will for their country, and consequently their family, and consequently me [ say: Thor. ]
