Event 1: Gods and Monsters

[letsplayamod]

[Time is a bit difficult to measure in this place. The storms that rage beyond your safe barrier, overtaking the horizon with their shifting lights and shadows, aren't doing it any favors. If you were to ask Athena, she'd say it's been about a week since your arrival. And since then... there's been scant signs of things improving.

Today, you wake up to quiet. No drone of distant winds. Not even birdsong breaches your bedrooms. Like a inhaled breath, the world seems to have paused.

And then, it exhales. The ground under your feet trembles and shakes. Dirt flies. Rocks shower down from the direction of the cliffs.

There, like an open wound stabbed into the earth, was a large crack where there wasn't before, spilling out an oppressive red light. Stranger still, some larger rocks are floating over the opening itself.

...Investigate?]

[He scoffs, picking up his drink and downing most of the rest of it.]

That explains why you thought it was such a good idea to pick a fight with that robot freak. You and Ferdinand could be best friends.

[he sounds bitter about it, pushing to his feet]

I gotta get back to work.

Oh, um... Yeah. Sorry.

[murchada]

[god--]

--damn it... I did it again.

[it's quiet, and someone without ferengi hearing would probably miss it, as she's muttering to herself before downing the rest of her glass.

stupid. she ruined the mood by being herself about it.]
