 It's been a whole month without any new arrivals. Who knows why? If you ask CERES, they won't bother with any in-depth explanations. They will simply claim that none of the code out there has been responding to their recovery methods, so they had to rework a lot of their technology. However, after several weeks of grueling work, they have finally experienced success! A fresh new batch of faces is coming in, and to celebrate their arrival and the real upcoming holidays, CEO Julius Vincere has arranged for a Christmas-themed carnival for all to enjoy. Those who arrive will wake up in Cerealia and be given a long, boring explanation and powerpoint as per usual before being ushered onto a bus (there is no escape. The robots will force you onto the bus one way or another). You will be unwillingly carted to the theme park where you will be immediately assaulted by a giant array of lights followed by several rides that you can enjoy. After you disembark from the bus, one of the snowman robots will be waiting to give you tickets to the rides and show you around as part of the Grand Opening. The amusement park will remain open for the rest of the month of December so anyone can visit as they please. The first couple tickets will also be on the house for new arrivals, but the rest will have to be bought with credits, so choose wisely! (Or try and sneak into the rides -- then face the wrath of the snowman robots and their snowman firearms :D)

xx ] Do you like ferris wheels? This is an enchanting one where you get to ride around in a giant snowflake at a very limited speed. The wheel will turn excruciatingly slow before stopping abruptly, leaving you trapped at the very top. We hope you're not afraid of heights because you're going to be in there for a while! The windows on the snowflake will rapidly darken leaving you and your fellow riders trapped in the darkness. At that moment, you will feel something warm breathing down your neck and along the back of your ear. As you reach over, you'll feel like the chair underneath you is made of snakeskin, and a hissing sound will intensify as the "chair" squirms and as the breathing gets louder and hotter. Scrabble at the doors, fight your way out! Will you escape or not? Probably not, but the experience will last only a good five minutes before the lights come back on and before the ferris wheel starts moving again. The chair will appear as normal, and there will be no one else inside except any fellow riders who came with you.

Welcome to CEREALIA's latest intro post For your convenience, we have compiled a post detailing what's going on right here and feel free to consult the FAQ if needed. Please leave any lingering questions in the OOC post, and we'll answer them as soon as we can. If this post goes into overflow, we will make a new one to deal with the ever-hated captcha! Worry not! |

[ Saber softens her stance, letting her sword down until she feels safe again. And then in a less obvious display her armor is gone, replaced with the usual shirt and skirt she wears, as if she weren't some kind of magical knight girl.
That question to her injuries only makes her narrow her eyes at Rei. She doesn't like being worried about like that. ]
I am unharmed. What of you?
no subject
I'm fine. Not a bruise on me. It just clipped me, that's all.
[Folding her arms across her chest, she adopts a more relaxed, if somewhat petulant stance.]
Who are you, and...what...exactly was that display there?
no subject
I am Saber. [ That's not a name. ] I am a Knight, and a Servant.
Were you about to cast some sort of magecraft?
no subject
[Well, she sure seems confident. Rei gives her an odd look, confused.]
And Magecraft? No. That wasn't...Magecraft. That was just the power of my faith.
[Which is probably the simplest word to describe it, anyway.]
no subject
You can believe as you wish, Saber-san. But you would be wrong. My faith has seen me through worse things than simple dark spirits.
[Sniffing disdainfully, the teenage priest regards the other coldly. Her tone is just as icy, brittle and hard. Knighthood she does understand, her fascination with history and old tales painting a portrait of it for her, so it’s hard to keep the barbs out of her words.]
Though whatever you may believe, you’d be better keeping that to yourself. I thought knights were supposed to be chivalrous and show courtesy, particularly to women and servants of faith, not insult their beliefs and skills based upon false supposition. Or do I misremember?
no subject
I will take your word for it then. I have never seen faith wielded as a sort of magecraft or magic before.
[ She is a little surprised to see the scrolls appearing, but does not move in any sort of defensive manner. She does bow her head though. ]
I apologize for having misjudged you and your ability then. You are not wrong, I am bound by honor and duty to a code of chivalry.
no subject
Her words are crisp, deliberately matching the antiquated cadence of the blonde woman. It’s easy, memories of Princess Mars addressing her subjects bubbling to the surface, and her posture is more like that of her past self. A martian princess, a warrior, a knight in service to the Queen of the Silver Millennium in her own right. These memories were not uncommon, but were rarely a comfort, given how that time had passed]
Be mindful of that inexperience, then. I know nothing of your world, but you know equally nothing of mine. [A beat.] But no matter the form or the world it comes from, magic? Magecraft, as you put it, is an expression of the wielder’s faith. You can’t do such things unless you believe in them, and in yourself. That is faith of the inward sort. You’ve seen that, if you’ve seen magic at all.
[Folding her arms, the young woman continues, eyebrow arched.]
As surely as you put faith into your sword, or in this…Master, I put mine in myself. I would not question your skill at swordplay, that would be unforgivably rude and out of line, and it undermines a solidarity that we need in a place like this.
[Her arms relax now, falling to her sides and she sighs.]
Just…remember that. There’s no reason to insult one another and bicker. What’s done is done, I forgive you, Sir Knight.
take 2
[ She doesn't want to explain everything, not to someone she has only just met. ]
I have not seen anything like that before. But we should attempt to leave here before it happens again.
[ Saber looks left and right, trying to ignore the mirrors now, closing her eyes to find the exit. ]
Come this way. [ Apparently she wants to lead. ]
no subject
Of course, lead the way.
no subject
Eventually they return back into the cold air outside, to where Saber turns to face the other girl, with her hands on her hips. ]
You seem capable as a warrior. But I could have handled that beast. If it were real. [ She doesn't want you to think she's weak, Rei! ]
no subject
I did not say you could not, Saber-san. But a sword is not really the most suitable weapon for those sorts of things. [A beat.] I assume it was a sword, anyway. By your stance.
no subject
Have you run into illusions like that before?
[ She narrows her eyes at the assumption. ]
You are not wrong.
no subject
I have. Strange things happen at home like that with alarming regularity [And she returns the wary look.]
I thought as much. Two of my friends are accomplished fencers...so I at least know the stance.
no subject
I see. I still would have made sure not to allow any harm to come to you, if you had stayed behind me.
[ Yeah, that's not so easy for her to get over, but she is saying it about as calm and collected as she can. ]
If I may ask, what sort of faith allows you a power like that?
no subject
I don't like standing behind people, and I can fight spirits like that, when they're real. I just can't do it if people are standing too close.
[She doesn't want to say she thinks she'd hurt Saber, but the sudden inferno of her transformation is not something she'd want to put anyone through.]
As to my faith, I am a miko. A priest, in my homeland, of the Way of the Kami. We're taught to combat dark spirits, and some of us have a kind of power to control them.
no subject
It seems we are not complementary in our fighting styles then.
[ Saber prefers someone like Rin, who will stand behind her and cast spells and what not, while she takes the close range approach. ]
Then you are from Japan, are you not?
no subject
[Once she's transformed things change a lot. Mars is a sniper, not a fighter. She lets Haruka, Makoto, and Minako take the vanguard. But she can't change if people are close.]
And yes, I am. Tokyo.
no subject
[ If they worked together longer, they might be able to form a better strategy...but Saber has not reason to work with Rei anymore, away from any sort of danger. ]
I see. I come from Fuykuki City. [ She's obviously isn't Japanese though. ]
no subject
