[text] @keeper; cw: character death [open]
Heyyy everybody. I'm the LH Keeper. I know you guys probably got some questions for me but like sit tight first OK? I promise I'll answer eeeeverything you wanna know in just a sec. There's a couple things I wanna say.
The first one being, hi! I'm Robin. It's SO good to finally get to chat with you all, like jeez I've been hella bored over here. That party you guys just put on looked really fun. :( I'm sad I missed it! But that's kinda how it goes when you're the Keeper. Rastus said there's been a lot of talk about like fulfilling our roles and stuff, and this is mine! I'm in the lighthouse because it let's me do a bunch of stuff to manage the town and help keep the world safe, but it means I'm stuck out here all by myself and I don't get to do the fun stuff I want to do sometimes. Which is why I'm so so SO happy that you guys and gals got me hooked up to the network again! Thank you so much!!! ❤❤❤
Oh right, and you guys have had a lot of questions about what I'm protecting the town from, haven't you? Me and Will talked and he's super sure it's best if HE gives you the skinny on all that since he said he would and he wants to make good on his promise, you feel? So he's gonna do that after the ferry gets here so all the new people can get the info too. Sound good? Sorry you gotta wait just a liiiittle bit longer but there's something else I think we should talk about first...
The forest spirits are still reporting the numbers so I don't know exactly how many we're up to yet but... A lot of people went missing and probably died from how things went down after the party. I'll put all the names in the next bulletin (sorry I didn't do one this week btw! things have been kinda crazy...) but if you want to ask about your friends and stuff in the meantime, I'll do my best to tell you what I know. Maybe some of them will come back? We just have to wait and see.
But... you guys probably saw this in that post Rosinante and Riku and Peter did, but just in case you didn't: Captain Winters died, and so did Five. I didn't see what happened exactly but I saw the spirits starting to come for them all and I tried to stop them but they didn't listen. They get really angry about people coming to the lighthouse or me trying to leave, even the ones that are usually really nice.
I hope they'll both come back but I don't know if they will, so, just in case... Winters would want you all to take care of the town for him and move on you know? He won't be around when the ferry comes so make sure you all fill the new people in on what's happened and how to survive here. All that really important stuff he's been telling people is up to you guys to spread around now.
*BIG SIGH* OK WELL I don't want to end on that super negative note but now I'm all sad sooo ask me questions and stuff, and Will will tell everyone about what I'm keeping the town safe from real soon. It really is nice to meet you all!!

I didn't really mean "crazy" in the literal sense, sorry! I meant, like, they let the stress of this place get to them? This has happened a couple times, but it's usually just due to people deciding not to trust each other (or me!!!) and then trying some kind of mutiny. That's what happened last time. Everyone turned on each other and started a murder spree.
That kind of stuff is really hard to watch, but more importantly, it's the end of progress. If everyone's too busy killing or trying not to get killed, no one's working on FIXING this place. That's the whole point of being here, you know?
Buuuut as far as the green eyed thing, I've heard of something like that before. Never saw one myself, but they're bad news. Like, they're still forest spirits! Just a different kind or something. They can mess with your head.
I'm surprised you saw one. They're pretty rare. That could definitely be why the spirits all lost their shit, though.

So that thing was responsible for why some of the spirits attacked.
What else can you tell me about it?
no subject
All I know is that they can trigger hallucinations and really fuck up your day. It's apparently really hard to tell trick from reality when they're around. And like I said, they're uber rare. There can't be that many around, thank god.
I don't know how they get along with the other spirits, and I don't know if their abilities work on spirits... I don't see why they wouldn't, though?

I wonder if there's a way to confirm that... IDK, could be too risky, but this is interesting! This is what I mean, too! About progress! Learning more stuff about this place! That can only help us, right?
