CORAL

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.

Well, I can definitely tell you about Blizzard and Hunter and the tale of the hidden moon. If you know what I mean.

. . .once upon a time Hunter and Blizzard found Beauty crying outside Sterling, because . . . because she'd misplaced the moon again! Not exploded it or anything, just misplaced it. And 'cos they're decent guys who want to help her out, they told her they'd go . . . they'd go look for it . . .

At the moon store.

*what*

Okay, so anyway, Hunter and Blizzard went looking through Aather! And first they heard a banging and a crashing and metal smashing behind the Hall of Doors. "Maybe that's the moon!" Blizzard said, all excitedly because he's Blizzard. So they went to go look! And they found Spark next to something big and round.

"That's not our moon," Hunter said. "It's way too shiny and it has too many moving bits. He's just building a machine!"

He's not but I'm not very good at dialogue.

Sooo they kept looking! And after a while they found another giant round thing on the beach. "Maybe that's the moon?" Blizzard said.

"No way, it's too fuzzy and pink!" Hunter said. And he poked it and it went 'Burupya!' and that's what it actually was.

They looked in his mouth too just to make sure he hadn't eaten it, but no, he'd just raided every team's kitchen that day.

. . . next they saw something that REALLY REALLY LOOKED LIKE THE MOON reflected in the water! So they definitely had reason to believe it was. But then when they checked it was actually Cheshire doing that moony smile thing he does sometimes.

And then he threw them in a shadow and they had shadow adventures.

Maybe scandals. It's up to the audience's imagination.

Anyway they got back to Beauty later that day, all beaten up! They'd looked near and far, high and low, and found an awful lot of round things, but none of them had been the moon at all.

That's what they were asking! They'd looked absolutely everywhere. "This is dumb!" they said. "How does the moon just disappear out of nowhere?!"

The sun began to set. They heard a forlorn 'pya buru pyaaaauuuuuuuu' and saw . . . Mikage floating up to the sky from the beach, his belly glowing brightly. He'd eaten the moon after all; they just hadn't been able to tell during the daytime. Mystery solved!

Of course then they had to figure out how to get him down and the moon back out of his stomach, but that's another story!
