The night crept upon the small halfling quickly, her addled mind only making the time pass quicker. But there she sat, beneath a tall willow tree, only a day's trek away from the destroyed and deserted Rozania. The smile on her lips shaky and her eyes unfocused but her hand was in the form to write. 'To those who may not have known, my years have doubled… As I sit in a place that feels familiar but in my mind I have no idea where I am, I grow weary that my days are coming to an end.' The small halfling stopped to draw a shaky breath and blink some wayward tears away as she continued, knowing that this note is important for the people she loves. 'Since Rozania my mind and spirit haven't been the same. The days fly by now, I don't know my way home anymore, I am starting to lose memories but don't remember which. Even forgetting the ones I live with on occasion, Donna and Marb.' She stops again to blurily look at the paper before crossing out the names. A concentrated frown on her face as she tries to think but sighs and continues once more. 'I remember more though, mostly bad but some good. With this note shall be a series of letters to the important folks I've had the honor to meet and know… I'm terribly sorry that things must come to this. I never thought my time would end this way either. I feel old and I never wanted to feel that way ever. Bless be, safe travels, and don't forget to wander off your path everyonce and awhile.. you never know what adventure you might find along the way' The halfling smiled at her closing line. Then signed her name 'Delphi Wanderfoot' the one thing she felt confident in anymore. She then took another shaky breathe and gave the letters to her snowy owl with a short order. "Deliver these to the proper folk, and make sure to be there for my rose bud" The owl flew off quickly as the previous owner drew a couple more breathes before grinning down at the ground below, right before death managed to capture the tortured soul that was Delphi Wanderfoot. To Bella, To Mellow, To Per, To Rosebud, To Otter, To Will, To Filibert, (OOC)

If one would listen closely, they would hear gut wrenching sobs deep in the tunnels of the homes in Hefrumm. A curled form of a small halfling shook and trembled, pained and heartbroken huffs leaking out from the form. Suddenly the figure grips their hair showing her face- Delphi Wanderfoot. Her eyes puffy and looking unnerved, unsure really. Delphi sat up still gripping her hair in a death-type grip, she looked at herself in the mirror across from her. The image didn't look like her, she whispered out with wide eyes at the image "Momma?" "W'y can't ye be bet'er." "Ye wonder w'y ye can't be 'appy? W'y evereh place ye live dies before ye? W'y everehon' leaves? W'y ye can neva make a famileh o' ye own?" Delphi sat there with an agape mouth, tears running down her face like an abandoned faucet. She didn't-couldn't- say anything, she wished to know why herself. "Yer are weak- Ye walk aroun' loike a nitwit an' expec' t'em no' ter take advan'age o' ye- Ye fekin disgrace o' a 'alflin'" "Now look a' ye, all alone wit' ou' anehon' o' yer improper 'friends'. 'Ow pathetic- Lil Delphi s'ould've lis'ened ter me w'en s'e had a c'ance." "An' now ye see, nobodeh liokes a clumseh, s'upid oaf!-" The voice of the late Wanderfoot was cut off with a crash, glass shattering under the mirror and around the well taken care of halfling feet. A few huffs are heard as Delphi looks down at her hand, now bloody, dripping onto the broken shards. The same hand pushes forward to grab one of the shards, cutting even deeper into the hand but gone unnoticed by the mentally gone halfling, with reckless abandon the self made knife slices off one of the long locks of red that surround her. Delphi sobs as she chops off the hair she had been growing since she was a child, the one thing she had that was in honor of her Mother, right off. No care on the jagged edges she left, only wanting to remove another stain she had on her with all she could. Stain's never fully leave, they may not be there that you can see but you know its there... One more slice and down goes the red tree, only leaving a jagged stump. Delphi glanced into the shard, now colored red, to see the reflection of herself. Not her mother looking back at her. She sighed falling back onto the floor and curled up once more, just so she didn't feel so- Alone.

Delphi had read the letter over Peralien's shoulder with a soft smile and slightly teary eyes. "T'at ass, get'in me feelin' s'ite" she laughed out before wiping her eyes and penning a letter to go with Per's 'Dear Will, I accept your offer and will gladly follow where ever Peralien takes me. I'm very excited to watch this journey begin, and hope to follow it all the way through. -Much care, Delphi Wanderfoot'

Sucks to suck I cant read notice's very well. How tf did you kill Ted Cruz? (he deserved it though tbh)

Ah hello Mr. Monkebutt THAIN of Bramblebury. I would consider, outside of the beautiful builds of Bramblebury and Knoxville, that Ando Alur and Stygian Hollow to have the prettiest settlements. Super impressive tbh and the lines that they have before you reach them is just *chefs kiss* the best imagery available and makes the experience so much better.

That would be really nice! I find that I get really confused on where to go on the museum server XD basically overwhelmed

I agree with that completely. I think it's hella important to listen to newcomers experience's with the server. Although, I have seen a good amount of people don't take very kindly to it because of how new we can be, and it can feel like we are invading on their space. Really wish I got to see previous maps and such to have a way to understand both sides on the freebuild discussion but alas I don't think ill be able to relate to the opposing view on that.

Hey! I'm a newer player and I think this is a good way to get some questions in about myself, how I feel about lotc or anything lotc based, or anything else! So ask me anything! (Also I'm bored and I like rep :D gimme)

I voted yes, and as a newer player I sometimes feel like I shouldn't get a voice in subjects like these this time I feel like I should speak up. When I was a soul I thought Almaris was beautiful, the terrain was stunning, the cities I was taken to in places where built to be gorgeous but as a player I quickly found that the terrain as awesome as it may look was often hard to navigate so really appreciating it was hard! I could barely get anywhere! And my first city as a player was Oren, I did see a fair amount of rp here but walking to the city was awful. Very boring nothing to really see except for wheat fields for miles and one little town (that was inactive but a great sight to see!) And when I got to Oren, it had very modern vibes to it. I thought it'd be more realistic medieval high class town with centralized rp (rp was very much everywhere and as a new player confusing to find bc I didn't know the set up of Oren). And when venturing off other places It was harder because there was no signs (because they don't get big settlements to help them with that) and farther out so you got super hungry, I had to buy food because I had yet to learn about voting, And some of these towns where just a manor or something! Nothing good... I think if we had a free build area it'd provide better rp, and make people happier with the state of our map. Freebuild is so nice and lets people be creative without having to deal with taxes for wanting to build on settlement land, waiting to get a response from the leader, or really just having to deal with boring builds being approved but not seeing something fit for your unique style. I really wish this wasn't my first map honestly, and I think the map is the reason a lot of people quit early on unfortunately...

Delphi looks at the paper with a frown "Poor dear, go'a try meh bes' for 'im t'oug' make 'im proud!" she says with a nod of determination, turning to walk away from the noticeboard, its suddenly very obvious she's gonna cause chaos in her new role.

'If one were to find t'emselves by meh 'ome wi' red 'air t'ey s'ould find t'emselves ready to ca'c' t'ese 'ands!' Delphi finishes off her note angerly huffing as she does so, slumping down in her seat frustrated that her original Strawberry Cheesecake was stolen along with other gifted items. "T'e fac' t'ey lef' all t'is red 'air as well! A' disgus'in, t'ey shoul' prolly ge' t'a looked at as well" she mumbles as she goes to tack the note down on the board. [!]The note is nailed to the sign! Seems the handwriting is a bit more pointed than usual.

Have only been on for a month crazy enough but the best thing I have been able to experience on lotc? The people. I never expected to meet so many people who just get it and understand me. I haven't been here for very long at all but the fact that I have made lifelong friends and found a place that I can actually go to relax is really nice. Wish more beginners, who quit early, got to experience what I have in a short amount of time. Thanks guys - Also huge shout-out to Kingo, Space, Disky, and Ontario for being the first couple people I talked to while waiting for my app to be accepted and first rp on the server after Kingo accepted it. Seriously one of my best memories on the server! Especially laughing with y'all about how many apps your had to do and if you could Speedrun to mine. You guys are a big reason why I'm still here. (And my Halfling buds :>)
