Finding Out Known Truths
(Mallory)
There was a silence that settled over the group as they all watched the slumbering pixy slip into unconsciousness. For a moment, Mallory wondered if anyone here would ask her about the impending vote that was happening now to determine their future. A vote that would likely have more future impact decisions than anyone could fathom. Fortunately for Mallory, no one asked, at least no one here did, which was a good thing as Mallory had no clue what any of it meant. Which was why just focusing on the current problem, on Cass and her needing to resynchronize with the server was the most important thing they could focus on at the moment, but a future conversation was clearly waiting.
Mallory watched as Cass quickly fell into the realm of unconsciousness, everyone began to relax. Then not wanting to say anything Gwen gave Mallory the hand roll and come on gesture that meant she needed to say what she wanted to know.
The only problem as that at the time, there was absolutely nothing she could say. Rather, there was nothing that she wanted to say, on the off chance that she might awaken the pixie. A pixie who seemed to somehow grow brighter with each breath she took.
Poof.
That's about when Kujo and Umbra both appeared. Kujo went next to Penelope, sitting by her side and let out a slow sad pant. Meanwhile, Umbra went close to Cass her body seemed to move by instincts and reached out with her free right arm and grabbed Umbra from underneath and pulled him close like a pillow. A very squishy pillow that looked like it wanted to fight its way free for a moment, before pausing and settling down to rest.
Silence.
Watching her for a moment, everyone else also paused as they checked her condition. With Kujo next to her, and clearly calming down, Penelope was the first to relax, as stress left her shoulders, despite having to be in possibly one of the most awkward positions. Her legs were spread out with a pixie and now an oversized lap pillow of an Umbra. Her arm was draped over Cass like an impossibly small comfort blanket. Her right hand gently stroking her hair, all while Kujo threatened to lick her face with his overly acid coated slobbery tongue if she didn't keep brushing Cass's hair. Yet, despite all of that, Penelope seemed oddly content with her position, however that comfort didn't stop her from also joining Gwen in eventually staring at Mallory with a come on with it already look.
Realizing that there was not much she could do, she paused and then listed out Cass's quests for the day.
Name: Dr. Cassiopeia Spiritlight, Clan Position: Doctor. Quests completed for today (1 of 9) Hidden Quest Found (Ongoing): Founding a New Spell Formula Category (Cosmic Spell Formulas):The rewards distributed function was a life saver function for Mallory as a Guild Leader, as it let her settle disputes on what people got as rewards, particularly on shared quests, where one person promises a portion of items received to another individual. This way the Guild leader acting as a moderator could step in as needed.
Showing the first one for context, and making sure to highlight the quest text that spoke about Cosmic Energy, it became clear why Cass had broken out of synchronization for the day.
Then she revealed the remaining quests that were still waiting to be finished.
