OOC notes, here is a rehash of your rules:

• Mod tags will come either a) after everyone involved has tagged in or b) after 24 hours have passed since the last mod tag. This means if you are absent for any reason, the thread WILL move on without you.
• Interaction in this log will be redeemable for MAIN AC, not just Bonus AC like most of our NPC threads.
• This questline will shape Zahliya's outcome for the rest of the game, and may or may not result in an almost-full Corruption cure and therefore gamewide impact. I will let people know midway through the quest if he's currently aimed at aggression/confidence/staying in the Grove, or if he's on passive/indecisive/leaving the Grove.
• The old OOC plotting post for this is here!

[the hard part out of the way, kiera lets out an extremely dramatic sigh and slips back into their usual relaxed posture. make no mistake, they still fully expect a surprise attack at some point, whether it's two seconds or two months from now, but pretending to be somewhat at ease is their whole thing.

yes, they are most definitely laughing out loud at luca's fumble. then for sure blowing a cold gust up the back of his shirt with a look that says behave.

meanwhile, they give their new "friend" a cheery as can be smile!]

Threats of bodily harm are so childish, aren't they? I won't allow Luca to roast you. I can offer you either a perch atop the barn or a pile of hay next to the sow... depending on how you're feeling about dear Zahliya's memories!

i need to get this done before weaspen hop on a plane sorry-

[Moon shard obtained! And Zahliya is immediately sticking it in his mouth and oh hm things are happening—

While the rest of you duke it out over the sun shard, someone please come in here and claim the sun shard looks at Jami lovingly do you still want this, Zahliya slowly stops trying to vore the moon and pays attention to what's happening. Mizuki taught him this okay.]

Yes, yes, the memories. You people really don't let anything go. And look, sun-head, I told you it wouldn't go well and you people demanded a truce anyway.

[She will walk closer to Zahliya, who looks like he's five seconds from hissing like a cat at her, and everyone will get to watch as an array of colourful, crystal-ball like orbs surround her. If you look into them, they're clearly memories she stole away — none of them contain any of you, since she couldn't get those because he was clinging to them, but they're mostly things about fights he's been in, how to actually use his magic before Luca was gay at him, that part where she's been in the background of a lot of his life... Look, he's getting stuff she stole like a thousand years ago back, see? See how cooperative she is.

Zahliya is going to have a migraine for the next three days.]

There. I'll take my barn perch now. Do something entertaining while you have me holed up there, at least.
