12 Black Feathers [Action]

[first_darkness]

[ It's early in the morning when it happens.

A small area of black appears near the fountain, just floating in the air. As the minutes pass, it slowly grows until it's about ten feet in diameter, even partially consuming the fountain. About ten minutes after it first appears, Saten fades into view in the very middle, appearing almost as if she's asleep. She floats there for about three seconds before abruptly dropping to the ground.

At that, she seems to wake up. She lifts her head after a moment and slowly looks around. It takes several more seconds before she slowly pulls herself to her feet.

She spends a while looking about her, but before too long the fountain catches her attention. Or in particular, the water in the fountain. When you've never seen anything before, fluid dynamics are absolutely fascinating. So despite the fact that everything non-living within a five foot radius of her turns pitch black, she spends the next several hours running her hand through and splashing at the water. After all, she can see it just fine.

She can be found in the vicinity of the fountain for pretty much the rest of the day and well into the night. Saten is more than content with just staying where she is and observing everything around her for a while. She may not be dressed like a New Feather, but she does seem to be acting a lot like one. ]

[Well the sudden darkness is certainly a pull on Saori's strings, and she makes her way over to the fountain, peering inside. Her own sight isn't quite like any mortals, more an act of divine will than any natural process, and she's rather surprised to see Saten of all people just...playing with the water. The way she's playing with it, that odd look of wonder on her face makes the goddess wonder just what had happened.]

Saten. Are you...alright?

[Siuan watches this for awhile before finally arching an eyebrow.]

Miss? [She stops herself short of calling the woman "Child" since it's been nothing but trouble here.] Are you all right? ["In the head" goes unspoken.]

[Shopping was how Fayt had decided to spend his day, having had decided it was long overdue to start searching out some better summer clothes after the recent heatwave, with summer creeping ever closer.

What he hadn't expected when he reached the plaza though, was.... he didn't even know what this was. It was like a big black blot had started to cover the fountain area, all centering around a woman.] Whoa.

[She didn't seem to look at all distressed, either.]

[At a more reasonable hour in the morning, Kouki went out to check the shops. He's planning on seeing what's new in the item store and stock up on a few things, before going over to the battle dome.

But the closer he get to the plaza, the easier it is for him to sense a familiar presence. Seeing as it's been a while since they talked, Kouki paused for a moment, before making his way over towards the fountain.

The fountain sure is a popular place to go.

Once he arrives at the plaza, he see Saten...just observing. Kouki walks closer to her, until he see her expression better. Her expression and how she acts so far...she acts like a New Feather.]

...Hello, Saten.

[He's going to place the blame on the Malnosso.]
