Jay

There are way too many people here. Didn't we already have a New Feather cycle this month?

[Jay will be in the plaza, trying to "spy" on as many of these newcomers as he can, by standing out in the open and just observing people as they go about their business.]

Where did all these people come from?

[The journal is silent at first. In reality, he's actually pondering the events of the past few weeks; the earthquake destroying half of the village, food being short, and monsters from every world suddenly appearing. And just overnight, it was all over. The monsters are gone, the village restored, food supplies restored. All is as it was. Or is it?]

[The silence is broken with an exasperated sigh.]

And just like that, it's all over. Things are back to normal, if anything can even be considered normal anymore.

I've said this many times; I don't need to say it again. Who all feels the same way?

[OOC: Jay's unaffected for this event, so feel free to terrorize him with your AU selves!]

And the farce continues, just as I suspected.

(I wonder who will be the next to die.)

[And yes, Jay feels like taking another tour of the mountains. Solitude is good for him. Or so he thinks. He won't be going as far as last time, but he'll just pick a random spot to sit down and browse through his journal.]

[ooc: And yes, Jay's thoughts will be displayed in red text.]

[Jay decides to become a guidance counselor. He'll tell you how to skate through life the hard way.]

Does anyone have any problems? You can talk to me.

[What kind of cynical advice will you get from him?]

It seems that everyone has received the same letter, offering us a way home. It sounds too good to be true, to be able to get home so soon and so easily. Additionally, a single gate with the ability to send everyone to their respective worlds? It just doesn't seem logical. The Malnosso are known for their experiments, to gather results, so this gate might be another experiment of theirs...which would also suggest that they don't really know what they're doing.

The mention of "Tyr" strikes me as the most crucial clue. I need more details on who he was and what happened to him. The letter states that we'll be "just like him" in a way that sounds foreboding.

Still, the offer is tempting, so this gate should be worth an investigation.

After all, I could easily watch the others become decoys for me.
