[ It's been a few days since the first arrivals trickled in to this iteration of the monastery, and there's been some improvement to the area, at least.
Which is fortunate, really, because the clouds have finally decided to open up and let out a torrential downpour.
The grass out in the courtyard almost immediately becomes saturated with water, squishing beneath people's feet as they step through it. Drainage in the monastery is a real problem in some parts, particularly near the marketplace area. Slowly, as time passes, pools begin to form, though some of the remaining debris serves as a decent buffer between the water and whatever crates merchants may have left behind. It may be a good idea to salvage some of that, though it's not likely to be ruined thanks to said debris. In general, it's likely a rude awakening for any new arrivals.
Of course, some would say that rainy days are the best when it comes to fishing; some would even say they're right, given how the fish seem to be out in droves at the lake. If one didn't mind potentially getting soaked, they could bring in a real haul during this rainstorm. The dining hall is not nearly as well stocked as it had been in its heyday, so this could potentially be beneficial for the community.
For some, it's likely best to stay inside and find shelter from the rain. Thankfully, most of the monastery roofing seems to be intact, save for a few sizeable holes in the cathedral. Still, that doesn't mean there isn't a leak here and there, so watch your step, particularly in the dining hall and the second floor of the dormitories as well. It might not be a bad idea to put a few buckets out to catch all that water . . . ]

[[ MORE HOUSEKEEPING, hey what's up guys:
- please PM this journal if there are more setting changes you'd like to be noted! i.e. if your character did some sprucing up in the greenhouse, just let me know and I will update the setting page accordingly.
- as noted on the "mod" plurk, I'll try putting up open posts roughly once a week going forward. it'll depend on how things are going, no big. ]]

[A world in which everyone cuts their own path.
Edelgard pushes her hair back over her shoulder. The impossibly long waves now hiding what little bit of unblemished skin she has besides her face. A beautiful, unmarked back. Always protected by others.]

A world where everyone can cut their own path...
[They want the same thing in the end, they really do. Can they maybe settle their differences? Dimitri looks up toward the ceiling.]
...I spoke with — Sothis.
[Is this how Ashe feels when Dimitri tries to get him to use his name instead of saying "Your Highness"? It's definitely uncomfortable!]
She would like to speak with you again.

It is not as if there is anywhere for me to hide here. She can find me if she needs to.

[He trails off, unsure of how to phrase this. It isn't as if Dimitri lacks eloquence, but finding the right words to say in a situation like this is difficult.]
I think she wants to help. She did not go into details, but I believe she was somehow... trapped. Her memories are jumbled. Even so, I get the impression that perhaps, at one point, the goddess we were raised to believe in did exist.

[But she cannot bear to hear it anymore. Talks of hope and compromise makes her uneasy. Edelgard stands in hopes to distance herself from him.]

Mending this bridge is difficult, indeed.]
