WELCOME POTLUCK

Greetings, residents! Those more observant sorts among you may have noticed a large influx of very crowded ferries. In order to welcome our new residents en masse, Town Hall is holding a potluck in Town Square. Please bring a dish if you are able and make a new friend!

All of our newest arrivals need only bring themselves. We look forward to welcoming you all into our community, and may your lanterns always be lit.

This event is open to all! In light of our new influx of prospective players following the Great Sail Migration, we've decided to offer a small public event to tide everyone over until the TDM this weekend.

Valdis holds her breath, then withdraws her hands from Erin's, all warmth gone.

"I let you push boundaries because I thought I loved you, but now I see that nothing I gave would have been enough."

She takes a step back.

"You were never going to be satisfied."

"No..." Erin shakes her head again, sucks in a ragged breath -

Calm. Calm it. Don't...

A sob hitches her chest, and she steps back. "I - I'm sorry, I'm. Raw. I'll. I'll be around, I -"

She turns, to flee back into the potluck, to ask where she's staying for the night. This wasn't the time, she shouldn't have said anything but when everything hurts it's so much harder to pick out the wounds that need to wait, and she's - she's been stupid again.

Valdis doesn't follow, or even try to reassure Erin as the woman flees. She's not responsible for the feelings others have, and it's easier to see that now. Even if it hurts.
