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.

[Of course not all of them are as talented, but as their tutor he doesn't feel like he can talk badly about them. At least they have tried to improve, which is more than he can say for other students.]

Some of the boys might have been persuaded by their dance partners to train. I hear there's big competition for the crown this year.

Oh, there's the school dance coming up. I had forgotten about that. I suppose none of the boys really care, it's the girls who do?

[She hadn't been out of school very long, but she did remember the dances, Homecoming the biggest one of them.] I don't think I ever competed, but it was fun watching others do so. The dances were always the most fun to watch. I wonder if everyone took your lessons?

...Not everyone could afford it.

[The smile he wears as he speaks is a strained one. Even his own son wouldn't have been able to join his dance class, because they weren't wealthy enough, and the paradox isn't lost on him.]

I hope that some of the boys are here because they want to. Dancing is pointless unless you enjoy yourself.
