You can see the other teams, but there is an invisible barrier preventing you from hearing them. You can assume that they can't hear you, either. There is a hefty serving of sweet wine and liquor, should you choose it. With a loaf of bread that you can slice. Nimue is in the center of the formation of teams, and when she speaks, you can hear her loud and clear.

"Storytelling has been a tradition of the knights of Camelot for some time. They would tell of the awesome feats of their king, and of their fellow knights... and... they were also prone to exaggeration in some cases."

There appears a small set of cards next to the liquor. You can read them, or you can implicitly understand them if you can't read.

"What feats have the heroes of Aather accomplished, I wonder? And what... exaggerations they may take? Before you, you will find prompts for your tales. You will write one for yourselves, for a set of knights, and for another team. I will select the most inspiring, as will your peers."

She tilts her head. "Ah, perhaps it is bad to encourage grandstanding..."

But before you can ask her, she vanishes.

Saya has some good ideas herself . . . they're kidnapped by Dream, and they're trying to get out, but it's difficult to coordinate because they can't understand each other?

Re: GENERAL DISCUSSION

Saya's pretty good at this sorta thing. [is that a tiny bit of pride? maybe.]

And they overcame that by coming up with some other way to communicate. Hand signals, or somethin'... it might help if I knew anythin' about Dream.

Re: GENERAL DISCUSSION

Dream deals with desires, and runs games in which people enter one another's hearts.

We could so something involving desires and the psyche . . . but hand signals work as well.

Re: GENERAL DISCUSSION

Oh, then Dream was the one who opened up your heart for that game.

Looks like Saya's got this one covered.
