seasonality | WEEK 0: MINGLE

week zero: mingle

remaining students: forty-two.

Hey, wake up! Before you're late for school!

The first thing you'll receive when you wake up is a notification: Updated Dorm Wars Standings.

🦋 SPRING: 0
☀️ SUMMER: 0
🍁 FALL: 0
❄️ WINTER: 0

Fall has truly swept over the campus, and the colorful leaves will crunch underneath your feet as you walk through the school. In fact, your adventures might bring you to some new locations where construction has concluded. Take a look around!

On every building bulletin board, as well as on your phone, there's a new posting for this week's Dorm Wars tasks. Check out which answer resonates with you the most, and then get those points for your team! Speaking of your team, it seems like Office Hours are open for all Dorm Heads if you'd like to chat with them. Maybe see if there's anything you'd like to redeem a voucher for?

Once again, a now familiar ringtone plays from every student's phone. The screen will automatically open to the Student Directory. Everyone's ID Cards with their wonderfully flattering and fitting pictures are now out there for the world to see. How do you feel about yours?

A few classes in particular have been highlighted with open enrollment and can be joined for the week:

Finally, there also appears to be a hay ride attraction for everyone to enjoy. Yes, you can ride the tractor. No, you can't cause property damage. In fact, it seems like as you enjoy your hay ride or tractor joy ride, you may hear the occasional growl of a bear.... And just in case you need a nice cozy place to have all these deep, important conversations, a bonfire is located at the central campus lawn with blankets and wooden logs available for everyone to sit on - plus supplies for s'mores! Yay!

...It was a request from an old friend of my father's.

Huh. They really wanted you to come teach? Maybe because of all your mercenary exploits...

[she exhales an amused breath.]

Something like that.

Wow...you must be a big name there...

[IT WAS JUST A REQUEST FROM AN OLD FRIEND NOT LIKE SHE'S A CELEBRITY]

[she shakes her head several times. nonono.]

My father was the famous mercenary.

Why would they get you, then? Because you were his heir to the business or somethin'?

They said it was because I helped save three of their students.

They also asked him to resume his position as captain of the guard.

[so they both got got.]

That's real noble, but that's a bit of a strange reason to just grab a person for a teacher position. N-No offense to you.

[...?]

He was captain? Before he went mercenary?

[she nods several times, expression decidedly neutral. it IS a strange reason. she is right there with you, kiddo.]

Yes. He was captain before he was a mercenary.

But he was a mercenary before he was a captain.

Eh?! That's real going back and forth on careers, there-!

He wandered.

[that's it. that's all she gives.]

[He huffs.]

That's some wandering...it would be like if I went back to being king...

[she blinks,]

You were a king?

Yeah. I guess I still am? I mean, I left the throne to become an adventurer, but that's what everyone called me back then.

[...]

King Mandricardo...

[He blinks.]

T-That's me...

[she nods. okay!]

Did you have a good adventure?

Uh. Depends on your definition of "good".

[And a beat.]

You don't have to go all the way and call me King, y'know. That was a long time ago. I'm just your Servant.
