DAY 028
SOMETHING ON THE WIND
Another day dawns in the fair town of Mathias. The sky is a blanket of light grey, tiny specks of snow lightly falling as the hours pass. It makes the town feel almost quaint, the scenery quite peaceful in its winter garb. But beneath the veneer of peace there is a pervasive dread of something approaching. Something inevitable is on the wind, something that has come before and will come again...
Throughout the day, residents will consistently experience feelings of deja vu, that sense of having done or seen or said something before that can never be fully recalled. It happens again and again, tugging at the back of their minds, the memories just frustratingly out of reach.
Residents will also notice a note pinned around town:
The note can be found on the town hall's bulletin board and the front doors of many town establishments, including the Grey Gull, the library, and the boarding house. At the bottom of the note it is specified that the meeting will take place "tomorrow, when the sun is over the town square."NEW ARRIVALs
The newest arrivals to Mathias will wake on the frozen lawn of the town hall atop a snowdrift. They had best hurry inside and get warmed up before hypothermia sets in.
DAY 029
A GATHERING OF MINDS
In the late afternoon when the sun hangs over the town square, residents will converge upon the Town Hall, where a larger meeting room has been filled with rows of chairs. After most people arrive, John Constantine stands and addresses the room... and then sits again. A grand introduction, truly.
Residents are encouraged to share their experiences and information they have gathered in the town while holding questions until the end. Rather than getting tangled in the intricacies of each person's tale, it seems better to absorb the broad strokes and try to connect the puzzle pieces to get a look at the bigger picture that is the mystery of Mathias Township.THE INEVITABLE
As the meeting comes to an end and residents begin to converse among themselves, the feeling of something approaching and sense of deja vu begin to build, becoming almost oppressive as night falls. An hour after nightfall, residents learn the reason for these sensations that cease immediately as the earth begins to rumble. The buildings shake, furniture tumbles, and breakables crash to the floor as the earthquake sets in without warning.
The tremors last around a minute, far longer than a normal earthquake, and then the town settles again. There are no aftershocks, which many may note is quite unusual. Residents will find quite a bit of mess in their homes and other locations around town, but there is no structural damage to be found despite the intense shaking.
CONDITIONS UPDATE — THE WEATHER is fairly typical of a northern winter. The sky is grey, the temperature hovers just below freezing during the day (colder at night), and a light snow falls during both days. Residents should bundle up when going outside and not venture too far into the dark night...
— THE FOG remains blocking the paths in the forest, urging residents to stay huddled within the town proper, and it also now blocks the northern section of town, beginning just before where residents know the chasm in the earth to be. Venturing into the fog is ill-advised.
— DISAPPEARANCES continue with Sherlock Holmes being the latest victim of the town's unsettling whims.OOC NOTES — TOWN MEETING STRUCTURE The town meeting section of the log is designed for characters to share any information they would like to with the other residents in attendance. ICly, characters should "hold questions until the end" with the intent that they can get the Big Picture first and connect any dots they see. OOCly, this means players should post their character's information sharing tag in the Meeting section, but the actual conversation about whatever they share happens after the meeting proper in the Mingle section. That way, these conversations can happen however players prefer, be that one-on-one or in small or large groups.
— HOUSING Please be sure your character's housing arrangements are up to date on our list. We're missing a few people and it really helps to know where everyone is for planning. Frequent updates for wandering characters are perfectly acceptable.
— THE BULLETIN BOARD has been updated. Players should note there is a change to the wall near the board that may be of great interest to some residents.

( To explain why he thinks he knows this, though... He stops his thought, weighing what he's going to say. )
I talked about what Sam and I have been through. That's one kind. Small-scale. Manipulates one whole town, but, really, he manipulates one or two people. Groundhogs Day ( He holds a finger up. Adds a second. ) Stay Tuned, our, television -- ( He grunts from frustration, clearing his throat. ) experience. They were created by an archangel. Eventually, he gave up the ghost. Second kind. Whole other world. Alternate. Same characters, different bent. Is one person dead. Do they have money now... We ran into -- we don't know how many more there were - from where we're from. Maybe infinite. But, they were being systematically destroyed. At least, they were before I woke up here. Cas, the one in the trench coat, he says he's from a later point in time. Could be a different world. All these worlds? Created by our God. Liked to be called Chuck. Don't ask. Third kind. Chuck's - God's sister. The Darkness. Kept somewhere else. Locked away for -- eons. Parallel, but, unreachable. I don't subscribe to Malcom Bright's this was made for us idea, but, whatever this place was, it's not made for the great escape anymore. It's made to hold us in. It's somewhere between reality bending and -- I don't know. Between our realities.
If we are all from different worlds, and this defies our God, then I doubt this is just an archangel.
( That's what he has. )
What this was, whether it was a small town cult or something else...

It brings up too many memories of the nuns at St. Agnes for her liking. ]
Yeah well, on my world, the only gods we've known were actually aliens. Asgardians, Kree, they all liked to visit Earth and mess with humans who didn't know any better. [ She shifts uncomfortably again, moving her wrapped arms to rest her hands on her hips. ] But parallel universes are science: timelines thrown off and creating branching universes like you described. I've been to two of them.
no subject
( Rescued another Sam and him from a third, he's going to keep that back. This is at least something in common. )
How do you think this works. Our universes and yours. Is this string theory now?
no subject
Dunno. I'm not the science type, and the members of my team who are aren't here. But I've gotten enough lectures over the years to know it's a thing.
no subject
Either, people here - they summoned something and they had a feed it. Or, they summoned something wrong and it fed. And now we're here. Or, nothing was summoned. And something brought us here. Like, the guy on the porch. Did you see the crack in the Earth? About - four, five days ago?
( Longer? )

None of it makes sense, but maybe someone will see a pattern we don't.
no subject
( Or there are none. )

[ What a ray of optimism this conversation has been. Unfolding her arms, she reaches up to run a hand through her hair, letting out a deep breath, and then shakes her head. She feels like she's about to vibrate out of her skin with anxiety and for someone who can actually control vibrations, that's not a good thing. ]
Sorry, I need to— It's nothing personal, I just really need to move, so I've gotta go.
[ She's already starting to step away before she's even finished speaking. ]
no subject
You don't need to apologize. Go. Dean, ( He says again, letting her know his name. ) if you ever need anything.
no subject
Daisy. [ And then she's moving again, weaving her way through the crowd. ]
