The Story Thus Far:

The Once-ler has successfully freed Martel Yggdrasil from captivity, bringing her to the woods for safety. Martel, afraid of the retribution this might bring, pleaded Once-ler to tell no one that she has escaped. Once-ler then returned to the Resistance, only telling Ino about what had happened. Martel meanwhile traveled the woods alone until she met up with Zack Fair, the now embittered mercenary that's been doing what he can to stay alive and free in this setting.

However it wasn't as though Martel's disappearance went without notice. Mithos noticed his sister's absence and has set out all stops to find her. Whether or not you know of Martel's release, it's hard not to notice the larger number of angels around - even if some appear less than intimidating. Because of this, the small traveling group of Zelos Wilder, Arya Stark and Genis Sage have decided to travel to the mountains to use the stronger winds for safe haven from any lifeless angels until they can stronger.

Meanwhile back in the Resistance, efforts to fight back still persist. The inventors are having struggles in creating better keycrests for their loved ones  that have been transformed into angels. In the less tech part of the Resistance, Tsuna and Allen continued their efforts to revert angels back to their former selves. They were successful in converting Mithos's former assassin Sheena, but due to some mishaps Maladict escaped from their attempts.

Oh and Garry moped.

With all these different teams going on, what will be the next thing to occur? Will things turn in favor to the Resistance, or will it only get worse? Will Garry ever stop moping? Will any of you remember to use the damn journal? Only time will tell...

[OOC: This post has two services, first as a recap as you seen above, as well as a mass open post for all the on-goings you rather not make an entire post for! Feel free to use this post as such or simply make your own post in the comm, it matters not! As for amount of time, while the game is very flexible we'll set it to be still a few days after the staring point of the game cause why not]

I knew the castle wasn't safe, when we returned and ... well. [he heard screaming and pretty much decided to leave] Never mind that. [shudder]

But I didn't realize it was this catastrophic. ... What did everyone do? I've been trying to research it all, but everything I've found has been somewhat inconclusive. [he holds up a scrap that looks to have been torn out of a journal]

[whichwayyoulean]

That's because most people don't use the journals unless we have to now. Mithos can use them against us.

...Look, there's a resistance in the caves, or if you...uh prefer [he wants to say 'can't survive here without having a heart attack' but he keeps that one back] quite a lot of people moved out into the dead zone.

[theabjectauthor]

Mithos. [he rolls the name around slowly, the 's' hissing slightly with his lisp as he frowns at the scrap of paper] Yes, that's a name I'd seen frequently, but I hadn't quite made the connection for certain.

[pardon him while he takes out a notebook and scribbles in it. there we go. information dutifully recorded]

If you don't mind terribly, I'd like to at least meet this Resistance, so that I might know their faces and show them what I've gathered.

[whichwayyoulean]

He's the leader, the one who decided the whole hostile takeover thing would be a super-fun idea.

[...Man he is going to get in trouble for bringing another crazy person home. He promised them he'd stop doing that]

Sure, anything you have'll help. [He'll start to head off towards the forest, his eyes to the skies in case of attack]

It's this way, c'mon.

[theabjectauthor]

Thank you. [he falls into step behind him - goodness, he's tall. hopefully he won't have too difficult a time keeping up]

My name is Lemony Snicket ... [never mind that you sort of unintentionally introduced yourself with that little anecdote, dude]

[whichwayyoulean]

[Luckily for Lemony, the Once-ler's used to spending time with people a lot shorter than him, so he tries to keep his giant giraffe strides as small as possible. And after a pause, he decides might as well give his name too]

I'm the Once-ler.

[theabjectauthor]

I see. A pleasure to meet you ... though, what is a Ler, and why do you only need to do it once to garner a title?

[whichwayyoulean]

I...no, it's not a title. [He heaves the patient sigh of someone who's had to explain this enough times that he's seriously considering getting it tattooed onto his forehead]

It's just my name. The Once-ler.

[theabjectauthor]

Oh. ... My apologies, then, I didn't mean to be rude. If it makes you feel any better, I've often been asked what a Snicket is.

[whichwayyoulean]

It's okay, I'm pretty used to it by now.

...Really?

[theabjectauthor]

Yes, really. Most likely because my name is unabashedly an adjective, so therefore, whatever a Snicket is, following logic, it must be able to be Lemony. [he looks faintly amused]

[whichwayyoulean]

[That's just getting a giant blank look, buddy.

Yeah, he is so going to get in trouble from beginning another crazy person home]

Right. Thanks for ...clearing that up.
