Aaaaaaaaall aboard… the MIA caravan! Thanks for applying and welcome to the game.

A few loose ends, for your pleasure:

ADMIN

When you have a second, have a last read through the game rules and comment to the TAKEN LIST.

Join eastbound, lostcompass, westwhere.

All game-relevant updates will be posted on lostcompass, but if you’re a fan of plurk memos, consider following eastbound.

We are currently in Arc I, Sa-Hareth — the game start is so far scheduled for 3 April, but may be pushed forward if most applications come in before that time. Stay tuned!

Xiao Xingchen’s perceived harmlessness as a blind man will earn him two semi-decent opportunities:

Young House of Dew attendants will trail after him to beg his hard candy, if the sweets are within sight at the brothel house. They’ll also be less guarded speaking around him if he continues to indulge them with treats, assuming no one will put much weight in a blind man’s word, even if he tattles.

Some of the House of Dew’s courtesans may offer Xiao Xingchen a modest cut of their fees to hold watch over their poetry and PG-13 entertainment sessions with customers who’ve acted inappropriately in the past. These patrons, the courtesans will say, will be unable to refuse his company because his blindness still protects their anonymity.

The username Xiao Xingchen will inherit if he ventures on the freebie magical network at the House of Dew is wide open-winged queen of butterflies. All of his magical network posts/comments at the House of Dew will show up under this fine nom de plume. This is a temporary username and can be changed, if he procures his own quartz translation device.
