Luceti Valley - The First Log

[lucetimods]

Who: Everyone
What: The start of a new experiment... or is it?
When: August 2nd - August 6th
Where: Luceti itself
Summary: Luceti has become an idyllic and peaceful 50s-esque village. The first few days are just business as usual, right?
Rating: Varies with thread. Please move explicit stuff to appointments post with appropriate warnings.

August 1st had seemed like an ordinary day in Luceti. But late in the evening, for those night owls who had not turned in yet, they were witness to strange fluctuations in the barrier. Beautiful, really, almost like Luceti had received its own 'Northern Lights', even though it seemed to come from the far east, across the ocean. This ominous light show lasted for all of fifteen minutes before it ceased all together. Skimming the ocean waters, a horde of cultists entered Luceti, cloaked by darkness. Upon reaching the entrance to the tunnels, their leader stepped inside and was followed one by one by his fellow cultists. When the last had entered, the tunnel entrance closed. Across the mountains, the entrance to the tunnels in the village did the same.

Midnight passed without incident, but by three in the morning, the change suddenly came. Minds were altered, forms were changed, and buildings sprang from nowhere.

Much later, on August 2nd, morning settled on a changed village, the new mayor made his way to his mansion with his pair of adorable dobermans at either side of him. The sun shined bright. It was a good day to be a Lucetian.

Note: There will be a stand alone log for the homecoming dance. There will be another log for the second stage of the event.

Ha, homecoming was a huge deal for me in school too. I still went! Don't get me wrong! I just...didn't make a big deal about it. We drove ourselves, and didn't get all those big fancy limos to take us around town. It was nice and quiet! Prom though...

[She laughs, man that was so long ago. Besides, prom was different.] That was a different story. I think I saved every penny I could for my dress.

Me too, even if I felt stupid for it while I was doing it.

[Saving for a dress, that is. She can appreciate the irony, given where they are. Her grin's a little lop-sided as she runs a hand on the counter before tapping a knuckle]

I guess it's just part of being a girl, though. Just like inflating homecoming is a part of being young, these days.
