Intro Log || The Night of the Thirteen Moogles
Characters: All the "Heroes of Light" (only new characters can start threads).
Where: Aqures Ixen.
When: The 5th of October. The new Heroes of Light will awaken early in the morning.
Summary: The new Heroes of Light awaken in Aqures Ixen and are informed by their assigned Moogles of what the situation and what their destinies are. This a log for them to react to the situation, meet each other and be welcomed by the former batches of Heroes of Light. New Heroes of Light will not have their Crystal.
Warning: N/A

Warning: N/A
Where you were or what you were doing— It does not really matter. Not any more. Within an instant, the world around you collapses. Reality twists and shatters... Or maybe you are the one who is collapsing and shattering away from reality as you knew it. No matter what the answer is, it will only take a few seconds for you to find yourself sinking into a void, your world vanishing into the distance. There is nothing but darkness as far as the eye can see. Even you feel different: all the powers you might once have had, are now gone. It is silent, cold and it feels as though life itself is slipping out of you.
At this moment, when it looks as though nothing but a never-ending void awaits you, a red Crystal forms before you. In this void, its warmth compels you to grab it. Upon doing so, you can hear a soft, soothing voice speaking:
"Wake up."
Soon, the void itself vanishes and is replaced by distant noises of engines. Had it all been nothing more than a dream? The soothing voice repeats its call one more time, but is soon replaced with a much less graceful "Wake up Kupo," the call of the Moogle finally waking you up. But you are no longer in your world, nor in the void. You are before the Crystal of Fire, in the third district of a city called Aqures Ixen. At this point, you may realize the engine noise actually originates from an Airship flying low over the city and headed to the castle. As if it wasn't strange enough, your clothes have changed as well. They are now a reflection of the Jobs you are wielding. Last but not least, you are surrounded by Moogles, small and fluffy creatures who are more than happy to tell you about everything you want to know, about your 'destiny' as a Hero of Light, about what awaits you.
Or at least, they will tell you everything they do know, which isn't much in the end.
The only people around you are like you-- There are quite a few of them, all clothed in their Job garbs and most likely wondering what is happening. If somehow you do not realize it, the Moogle who woke you up will be more than happy to inform you there are others like you around. In fact, there are other Heroes who arrived these past months too and they will come soon! Like you, they had Jobs and a Crystal-- Wait, you don't have a Crystal...? That's weird.
Your Moogle will be puzzled by this fact, as all Heroes of Light are supposed to have a crystal with them. Well, maybe you are not a Hero of Light after all?
The Other Heroes
— Shortly Thereafter —
Thanks to the efficiency of Mognet, it does not take long for the other Heroes to come around: those who arrived in this world one or two months ago. You may have imagined heroic and charismatic figures when your Moogle told you that there were other Heroes of Light in this city. You may have imagined persons with fearsome powers worthy of being revered as heroes. And more importantly, you may have imagined them as people who would have all the answers to your, doubtlessly, numerous questions.
If so, you may be up for a minor disappointment. Still, for the most part they know more than you on the situation and may be more than happy to fill you in, especially if your Moogle didn't tell you much.
The Night of the Thirteen Moogles
— Anytime —
Something that may be obvious, is that the city has a spooky feel to it. There are various decorations, it clearly looks like a work in progress but it seems the idea is to make the city looks as scary as possible. Characters familiar with Halloween may recognize the decoration as being strikingly similar. The Moogles will be more than pleased to explain these are all preparations for the upcoming Night of the Thirteen Moogles on the 31st, and they will explain the legends to characters if they ask.
Hopefully all this talk of curse and King Moggle Mog is nothing more than legend.
The City of Aqures Ixen
— Anytime —
There are a lot of things left to do in the city, especially with everyone excited for the upcoming celebration. Starting from 18:00, a series of BLitzball games will take place at the stadium located in the tenth district, opposing amateur teams in a friendly competition. At the same time, a small group of Triple Triad players are playing before Mognet Office in the ninth district, and they are more than happy to teach the rule to anyone passing by. Characters are free to enter and play games of Triple Triad, and if they do so they will be given very basic cards and explained the rules. This may be the start of a promising career!
Characters are also free to visit the city-- Be it Mognet Office just behind the Triple Triad games is filled with very busy Moogles, or the Airship Port in the twelfth district from where characters can board for free Airships from Shoopuf Airline, knowing the next airship departing from Aqures Ixen will do so on the 9th. Still, characters can board an exposition Airship should they like and visit it.
Or maybe you could visit your new house in the 11th District, and get to know your new neighbors and housemate. Hopefully your neighbors are people you will get along with.

Zack started leading them away from the Crystal of Fire. Now that he'd found the one person he'd been looking for there was no reason to hang around. "You were with me for most of it. Unfortunately there wasn't really any way for us to talk to anyone during that time." At the second question he frowned a little. "A lot of stuff has happened, not all of it good. I can say that now you've got a uniform just like mine." He removed his arm but it's followed closely by his hand ruffling that chocobo-colored hair.
A 1st Class SOLDIER's uniform that Zack found in the wardrobe of the mansion to get Cloud out of his mako-soaked one. Maybe when the other woke up he'd be the equivalent of a 1st too after all of that experimentation.
no subject
None of the ones in his imagination really matched to the reality ahead of him anyway. The news about that uniform was heartening though. In any case, they were here now. Best to make the most of it!
He batted at Zack's hand, laughing while trying to get his friend to knock it off. "Anyway, this place is a lot like Gaia. Some things work differently, like you don't need materia to use magic, but there are people here from other worlds that are a lot more different than that. I think chocobos are the most common thing our world shares with others, if it shares anything."
no subject
"I'll tell you about it someday. Not today though because I just got here and there's way more important things to take care of - like where I can find a decent meal. I'm starving," he emphasized the word and then leaned on Cloud a little more than before as if to suggest that maybe he wouldn't be able to go on much longer without food.
Zack would probably never be able to keep the truth from Cloud that long, he had been the one person that he could talk to about anything. After all, it wasn't like the blond could have protested recently. There was no way Zack could go for long periods of time without talking to someone, especially when there was someone around.
He listened quietly while the other explained this new world. "What am I going to do with all this materia, then?" Gestured back to his huge sword where several materia were equipped. "Chocobos, huh? Good to know there are some familiar things here. I wonder about the other creatures." Mostly about the monsters.
no subject
"I think we'll be figuring out a lot of things by doing them. I've been a Black Mage since I got here but I just picked up something new. I'm learning how to use a gunblade now."
He looked up and down the street, mulling over the different options for food. It took a moment before the obvious occurred to him, the best meal he'd had since arriving, "Oh! Angeal is here! He's a really good cook, but I guess you knew that. Have you run into him yet?"
