[Action]

[Earlier in the month, Jade Curtiss has started to travel outside of the barrier, in order to gain a better sense of the state of the outside world. It was a risky expedition, but he felt that it had to be done in order to look out for any unforeseen threats. And to make sure that this whole situation truly was real. Whatever Jade might have learned on his journey is unknown for the time being. Because when he finally returns to the enclosure, on the day of the Malnosso announcement, he's afflicted by a Natural Shift which impairs his memories.



Well, not just his memories. Jade Curtiss returns to Luceti as Jade Balfour, a 12 year old fonic prodigy. This Shift has left him without any of his adult memories, although it has curiously left him retaining a memory of the basics of life in Luceti. It might be easy to recognize the similarities to his adult self. However, for the most part he is humorless and uncaring about others, and he hasn't yet taken to wearing glasses.

Jade doesn't alert anyone of his return; he can't even remember for sure what people from his world are here anyway. But he can be found at a variety of places throughout the village. At the library, he compiles a series of various books to research. He's very curious about the types of abilities found in other worlds. Perhaps that could help him in his latest thoughts, which involve trying to find a way to channel the Seventh Fonon. He spends a lot of time in the Battle Dome as well, where he uses his fonic artes, already more advanced then they should be in his age, in a number of simulations. Mostly, the simulations are set in snowy environments that are like his home world, and this involves him facing a number of deadly beasts that may or may not be outside of his range. He has to practice, he knows that he can't rely on the Professor to pull him out of danger forever.

Otherwise, he can be found exploring the general area, trudging through the snow - the environment being a small reminder of his home. Maybe he'll make some snowballs, for the express purpose of target practice on random passersby...]


[Voice]

[Later, he uses the journal system to try to contact the masses. He'll just leave out little things like who he is and the facts relating to his lack of memory. He actually hasn't seen the new Malnosso post either.]

I'm wondering what types of artes you practice in your own world. Perhaps you know it as 'magic' or some other specialized term. Which abilities are common and easy for one to learn, and which are exceptionally difficult or rare?

[Action: House 1]

[The first notable event of the morning is Jade's morning cup of tea falling to the floor with a shatter. He's sitting at the dining room table and looking on with an expression that looks equal parts disturbed and befuddled. The reason? A certain woman seems to be walking through the house, reacting as if being greeted by others. Yet never looking directly at Jade...

Jade spends some time afterwards investigating the house, until the second phenomenon occurs: the appearance of an unusual man at the house's piano, and he seems to be playing it...]


[Voice]

[At some point later in the day, the colonel takes to the journals and makes note of the similar observations that two others have made. It's time to organize these thoughts... He sends out a voice transmission.]

This is Colonel Jade Curtiss. I'm speaking regarding a recent phenomenon in this village. Most likely, it's another shift at play. But I'd like to hear about others' observations to ensure that we reach a proper conclusion.

Have any of you happened to spot unusual figures around Luceti? They're nusual in the way that they do not seem to notice your existence at all, and they in fact seem to fade away after several moments. It will be especially noticeable if they are people you know and who are no longer present in the enclosure. For example, have any of you managed to spot this silver-haired woman anywhere? [Enclosed is a depiction of the woman shown above.]

If any of you have managed to get these apparitions to communicate with you in any way, by all means, feel free to share with the rest of the class.

[Action: Open]

[Jade can be found at a number of places throughout Luceti, where seeks out the silver-haired woman. The locations that he investigates include the school, the library, the bakery, the item shop and the abandoned House 27. One can find him when he's in the process of seemingly investigating the area, or in the midst of a ghost sighting...]

Introspection )

He spends his time staggering throughout Luceti, where earlier that day there was a whole city and automobiles. As he does so, his red eyes are all the more glaringly obvious sans his glasses. He trudges his way all the way up to Community House 1 - to lock himself in his workshop, and his research. He only lingers outside of Community House 7 - he knows already that Rapunzel lives her. This place had made them family once before after all, but that time was much more bizarre and vaguely remembered. He hesitates, wondering whether or not he should pay a visit. Either way, he eventually makes his way to his workshop in House 1 and is back to his research. He has to piece together exactly what happened. Now that his memory is back, he remembers that first night - the lights on the barrier. To think... they'd truly been invaded.]

[Voice]

[Eventually, he takes out his journal. And mechanically bangs a few pans together into it. Maybe that should snap the fellow inhabitants back into attention. This matter was something that absolutely had to be discussed, after all.]

Rise and shine, everyone. Let's not dawdle on this. I understand that at the moment, most of you must be dealing with something that feels akin to a hangover of a cosmic scale. However, we are all very due for a debriefing. Or, in more layman's terms: let's review what in the blazes just happened.

[ooc: You can consider this a placeholder post of sorts. Feel free to wait until more event stuff plays out before tagging in if that will help - and similarly some of Jade's tags here may be on hold while more of his own event stuff actually plays out.]
