WHO: All of Navi’s passengers.
WHAT: A winter wonderland visit with your new brainmates.
WHERE: All over Vivamion City - and on Navi, if you want.
WHEN: The next three weeks (Dec. 7-28).
WARNINGS: Add these to your comment subject lines as needed! And if you get taken out by a super snowball, please report it on the death page.

Gooooood morning passengers! Time to rise and shine - with a very important Navi announcement incoming:

Attention, passengers.
We'll be landing soon on the planet Trelnar,
near Vivamion City.
We'll be docked for three weeks, local time,
which coincides with the city’s annual winter festival.
Should you require any weather-appropriate clothing,
I will handle the bill for your expenses.
Please stand by for atmospheric entry.

Have fun! As Navi said in their message, any passenger who requires a warm winter coat, scarf, hat, gloves, and/or boots before joining the festivities will be able to select such items from one of the shops near the docks, charged to Navi’s account. Passengers will also find a bank counter just past the docking terminal, where your new windfall of Navigems can be exchanged for credits (the universal currency). Try not to spend it all in one place!

"Depending on what kind of anime it was." Julia just shrugged, and right now she's lowkey doing this mostly to get a rise out of him. So, she taps one black painted nail against her lip. "Crownsguard, royalty, lack of sunlight... Hmm." Appearing deep in thought for a moment she then adds: "dystopian bullshit or weird steampunk shit."

[chocobosnap]

"I th-think it's probably more post-apocalyptic, if you want like a novel genre or something, except it's real." Prompto said with a shrug.

"Our planet is cursed. Eos was cursed by the Astrals, or something, I dunno. Doesn't matter. If we win, the sun will come back. It's been ten years. We were just waiting for Noct to do his part."

[relance]

"Okay..." Julia herself is from a horror that has a possibly end of the world bent (thanks Jon) but she does get curses, that's for sure. Honestly, she's pretty sure that she's got more than a few on her at the moment. Whether or not this new pairing is yet another is something that still remains to be seen. "How does Noct which is totally a name that sounds like nocturnal and night and all that shit, bring the damn sun back? Wouldn't you need like a Solar or something?"

[chocobosnap]

"Ah, sorry, Noctis. You're not wrong though. If it helps you his middle name means light. Noctis Lucis Caelum." Prompto said, with a bit of an amused smile. Teasing Noctis about his name was something he would've done a decade ago.

"Couple things. Destroy the one who's spreading the Starscourge." Prompto explained, which Noctis did. "And...die." Presumably that was what he was doing.

"That's what Bahamut wants."

"Huh." The word comes quickly, and Julia just crosses her arms for a second before she pulls a package of clove cigarettes out of her pocket and lights one without asking if it was okay. Julia's an asshole like that. "You guys definitely are using Latin wherever you are. Just based on the name. I'm pretty sure Caelum is a constellation back home too." She's not wrong, and it's just a kind of useless info that she's picked up over the years.

Taking a draw of her smoke, Julia's brow goes up to her head and it's only because she's so practiced in insanity that she doesn't choke on it. "So basically he's Jesus? Like seriously?"

[chocobosnap]

"Well they're Insomnian names that we have, so if that's what you call it Latin, then maybe?" Prompto said, a little questioningly. "I don't know. I speak Gralean too."

He blinked, not reacting to her namedrop. "Who?"

They had a six God pantheon, with no saviours, aside from Noctis.

[relance]

"Huh." The word is a thoughtful murmur, and for a second she considers fucking him given the fact that there aren't all that many Christians on board. But given that it's something easily fact checked, and the fact that Julia doesn't want to deal with someone being pissy about her getting it wrong, she sticks to the established canon of the religion even if viewed from the place of being an atheist who has invoked gods to tell them to stop being such a fucking dick.

"Welp, he's the son of God, like with a capital 'G' god, and God sent him down to 'save' humanity by letting himself get murdered in a grisly fashion. Of course, people who follow the faith tend to think tend it's only certain people who are actually saved by that act and shit."

[chocobosnap]

"Oh, no, he's definitely not the son of any of the Astrals or anything." Prompto said, shaking his head. "He had a dad. He seemed nice enough I guess? I don't know, never thought he did a bad job as a king." He didn't know Regis terribly well, and he never met Aulea either.

"We have the Six, and they all kinda seem to want something different, but they're all united in the 114th king, which is Noct, banishing the starscourge. He's not just saving humanity, he's saving Eos itself." Prompto explained, shaking his head. "It's been around since the first king, I think, if not even sooner than that. I don't know, I kinda slept through some of history class." He chuckled a little nervously.

"Either way, it's ruining everything, including the days. There used to be days, now it's always just night...hopefully what we did, the sun will come up again."
