Guaxi completed MEDO's quest of suffering with the werewolf's curse and the reward was Gris cannot be diluted, killed, or destroyed by Araldo by any means! Yay!

While telling the news to Quel, Gris however got taken by Bia, but was given back really quickly. Gris said she was taken to a bathtub for a second and then came back? She believed it was someone trying to tell her that she was smelly which really pissed her off and we got the rare "angry" expression.

Guaxi and Quel helped her to take a bath, just to make sure.

[hey-i-am-trying]

While I will defend akBagi with all my heart and yes, it sometimes gets to me how much others dismiss her to defend Bia, I think there is an interesting interpretation of akQuel, that has been manipulated by Bia as to why she keeps protecting her.

There is something to be say about how accepting that Bia's actions are unacceptable means also accept her own actions are not acceptable.

There is something to be said about akQuel as a victim of Bia's abuse that has something on her that keeps wanting to protect her abuser.

There is something about what it does to someone's mind to be for so long wired to protect someone to the point you don't know when to stop.

Below the cut there will be the translation of the notes Bagi posted yesterday that ak!bagi has been taking.

                        TIMELINE OF THE THINGS I DISCOVERED:

(probably – almost sure- the events are still in the wrong order, I will fix it with time!)

Bia and Jota were friends since they were young

2004 – The “disaster from 20 years ago” happens (maybe the thousand dead from the hole?)

1000 dead in the hole at the island we found, it was an old mine and it was explored until there was nothing left (FIRST TIME THEY FOUND THE MASK CAVE)

Grew up

Jota’s family dies under suspicious circumstances (in a fire that didn’t have ashes and they didn’t find the bodies) (FIX POSITION IN THE TIMELINE)

Bia (?) used to stay at the house by the city hall side, saying words in different unknow languages and the people created rumors about the scary things that were happening there. (for example, a mysterious fire in the houses)

Mayor Jota goes overseas (FIX THE POSITION IN THE TIMELINE)???

Jota and Bia begin to hate each other

Bia begins to be accused of witchcraft by everyone.

2016 – Jota is elected mayor (FIX POSITION IN THE TIMELINE)

2020 – More than 100 people (residents? visitors?) die from stomachache in a type of intoxication (maybe they died because they refused to wear the masks? In theory at this point of the timeline the masks “didn’t exist/weren’t used” but it’s a possibility)

Jota tries to learn languages very different from the common (like Bia, maybe trying to learn the same type of “magic” that she knows)

Island residents receive the “masks”, and the mayor asks that everyone wear them for their own protection (FOR WHAT REASON DID THEY ONLY MADE USE OF THE MASKS NOW? JOTA LEARNED TO USE MAGIC AT THIS POINT? MAYBE HE FOUGHT WITH BIA BECAUSE SHE WANTED TO STOP HIM?)

Bia is “exiled” from the island – event more interpreted as Bia being rejected, hated and despised by everyone in Valigma (because of the mayor?)

IMPORTANT DETAIL ABOUT BIA: known in the city for being a troublemaker and causing too much trouble… but for what reason did she do that? Vengeance? Bothering to make the people go against the mayor? Delay the mayor for some kind of plan? Is she trying to get OUR attention???

The masks have difference expressions/feelings. There are masks of different colors (Bia = pink, factory owner = blue, etc)

Alice said that she feels “comfortable” with the mask – maybe the mask represents how she feels? Or it makes her feel protected because she has an idea of why she wears it? Is she being controlled or manipulated to say those things? (poor thing…)

I believe the masks might be used for one of two things: 1. To stop the Valigma residents from dying/getting sick because of the contamination of the city (in this case the mask would have some kind of protection spell?) or 2. To get the Valigma residents with some kind of ancestral magic that is present in those caves, maybe to have control of all the Valigma residents in some way? But one thing is clear: the mask is directly involved with the magic and rituals that Bia already knew and that Jota was/is trying to learn.

I tried to take off Quel’s mask (Bia’s mask) and I COULDN’T. Is it stuck forever after you put it on?

“I hope the mayor knows what he is doing” – Who wrote that?

Pay attention to when I receive information from Hugo and remember to NOT reveal their identity to anybody

                                                  Masks

Everyone in Valigma has one!

Residents wear them by order of the mayor Jota.

Are used for “protection” of who is wearing it – Have spells on them?

Even the residents that are not in Valigma were wearing masks! For example, the ones in the docks that got our tickets to the boat, the captain, Bia, etc (THIS MEANS THAT EVERY VALIGMANO >HAS< TO WEAR THEM? – for what reason?)

They vary in expressions and some in color (pink, blue and that horrible re one from the banker) (THE COLOR AND EXPRESSION ARE TIED TO THE FEELINGS AND HIERARCHY OF THE WEARER?)

Red masks: any “neutral” mask can go red depending on the situation? Or the one from the banker didn’t change colors and he actually changed masks? – The eye turned red too!

They are similar to the expressions/symbols at the wall of the mines cave – place where their design was born (and power right, if there is one)

Is there somebody in Valigma who never wore the mask and IS ALIVE?

Are the masks a way of escaping the “punishment” from the earth for exploring the resources in a predatory way?

The main question is: in the deep part of the mine there is a place with a cauldron and some potions. Would that be the place where the magic was used for the first time? Or the place where it was discovered?

The factory is involved with the magic USE part? – They don’t look directly connected until no, even if both sides are suspect as hell. The factory looks like it’s being used to “keep” this magic? (TAKE MORE PICTURES AND INVESTIGATE THE INTERIOR – DO IT IN SILENCE BECAUSE OTHERS WERE CAUGHT INVADING BEFORE)

Remember to take a invisibility potion (my old friend) and some books! Stealing a gun would be important too

GUESS 1

The masks could have been created as a combination of technology from the factory and the magic that the earth had in it’s depths.

In this hypothesis, there would be an explanation of the motive that took them SO MANY years for the masks to be created, because it was necessary machinery to extract the power of the earth + transform it in a technology that could be used by the Valigma residents (the masks)

Bia would have been a strong opposition to mayor Jota, since she probably knew of magic e was even a defender of the power that the earth had. In a situation like that, the mayor and the factory wouldn’t be the “villain” because they were only trying to make the city survive in some way, and neither would Bia be the “villain” because she was trying to protect what she believed in and maybe the cost of that would be the Valigma residents paying with their lives for the predatory exploration their ancestors made.

In all of this, the mayor’s family could have died in a failed attempt of the mayor Jota of manipulating the magic inside his house since Bia refused to help (because she knew his intentions)

Guess 2

Bia was responsible for bringing magic to Valigma and that might have caused a collapse.

In an attempt of solving the problem, the owner of the factory worked in some kind of technology to use or even neutralize the magic – that would explain the good relationship between the mayor and the owner of the factory and the horrible relationship between him and Bia, even more if Bia is involved somehow in the death if mayor J’s family.

That huge machinery in the factory is full of “purple energy” is extracting/removing energy (or magic) of Valigma’s soil?

Would that explain the different mask colors?

Bia = pink

Factory owner = blue

Would they be different sides of a conflict? In this case, would the mayor and the city at th side of the factory owner in this conflict?

IN BOTH POSSIBILITIES, all of this started for the same reason: they tried to extract too much from the mines and from the earth, and messed with something they shouldn’t.

Who is the true villain behind the contamination of Valigma? The factory or the supposed rituals?

There is a problem in all of that… A question without answer. For what reason mayor Jota wants so bad to learn magic? The same magic that took the life of his family and made the Valigma residents miserable…

I will have to ask

(don’t die!)

NEXT STEPS

Speak with the mayor and ask for answers about his study of languages and the use of this magic, rituals and the things that he supposedly tried to manipulate by following Bia’s footsteps

Invade the factory to find details about how it works

Use the permission that Jorge gave me to investigate the police archives

Look for more details about the death of mayor jota’s family

Get a sample of the water from the lake for analysis and think of a possible antidote in case the contamination proves to be fatal

Get an animal and use as a test subject, giving it water from the lake. I will also test it in some plants. If it doesn’t work, try to find a human subject that is not wearing a mask (POSSIBILITY OF DEATH)

Verify the situation of the health of the grave keeper Gomez in the next days, because he drank some of the water from the toilet in Bira’s bar (he should be fine since he uses the mask) Do not encourage other resident to do the same because it may get in the way of the experiment. Just the subject Gomez may have ingested the water to be sure that the problem is in the water or to confirm that protection from the contamination is on the mask.

LOOK FOR BIA RAUX. She is the oly one who has the answers.

Do not die.

ak!quel and bia :P

Never expected to have SO much lore in Maethe's POV today but here we go:

-First Quel and her accidentally see JV and Coreano and find out what happened to him while he was under Araldo's care.

- A lot of talk about general and individual lore. Where the characters stand and their opinions about Gabe, Bagi's and JV's actions. And talk about if they had to pick a side between the powerful people of Arkanis.

- Later she and Gris decided to help the new Newspaper in Arkanis and talk secretly with Pac hoping he would get her this job. She promises to talk well about him in the paper if he does, and he likes the idea saying he'll talk with Jota about this.

- When she was about to tell the news to Quel both get taken by Medo, he wants a bargain. He wants their mask, in exchange they will get the memories back. They learn the mask will go to someone, but Medo refuses to disclose who it is. They're afraid it might be Araldo. Medo offer another bargain, he'll tell if they sacrifice a life beloved by them. But they're unsure what to do. They're allowed to go away to discuss about the sacrifice, they were trying to figure a way to sacrifice a life they like but not enough like Cherry or Julia (lol)

- However they're soon interrupted by Bia who shows up. After a bit of talking Maethe shows the picture she took of the new JV and she seems worried. Quel asked about Choke, she says she succeeded in some things and failed in others. Maethe asked if she had half of a mask like them, but she says it's best to Choke tell them personally. They're interrupted by Guaxi who went there because Gris freaked out about Medo taking them away. After some talk Bia decides to use a lankya that will recover a fragment of her own memory. She says some ominous words about a new type of Arkanya and about powerful younglings that will use them? She uses it twice, the second time she vanishes.

It's a really rushed summary, especially the part with Bia because my memory sucks and a lot happened. They're back to discussing about the sacrifice again, if Medo refuses Cherry or Julia they'll give up on the bargain.

bia told ak!quel and ak!choke that milo and tucupi weren't diluted, but instead sent very far away, and that milo is so far he may not be able to return.

the question is, however, does ak!pac know this?

and if/when he does, will convincing him that the push he needs to reach his son is learning arkanya be all bia needs to get him to wear the mask and take her side? sure pac has reasoned that the other especialistas were able to retrieve their children without masks, but they had the power of a lankya assisting them, and surely a good father would do anything to go the extra mile to rescue his child, right?

Questo weekend siamo stati in uscita di co.ca. per fare le verifiche personali. È stata una bella uscita, molto semplice ma molto bella. Come è andato il mio anno? Il mio anno era iniziato pieno di insicurezze e pieno di incertezze, ero molto amareggiata. Alla fine è stato riempito da tanti sacrifici ma soprattutto voglia di spendersi nel Servizio. Sono molto grata ad Ake e Kaa per tutto il supporto che mi hanno dato, insieme abbiamo fatto funzionare tutto e sono così felice dei risultati ottenuti e di essere arrivata a fine anno con tutto il branco.

Le piccole orme sono state anche quest’anno una tappa importante sulla mia pista, spendermi nel Servizio per quattro giorni è stata linfa per il mio entusiasmo e sono davvero contenta di essere riuscita a prendervi parte.

A livello di co.ca. mi è dispiaciuto che quest’anno non ci sia stato un cammino, abbiamo tutti arrancato nel donare del tempo alla co.ca. e questo ci ha tenuti fermi a dove eravamo un anno fa. Ho capito che alla fine tutti facciamo dei sacrifici per dedicare il tempo ai nostri ragazzi, e ognuno di noi mette a disposizione quello che può e quando può. La cosa importante è fare del nostro meglio per non far chiudere il nostro gruppo. Ieri quando ho sentito i capi gruppo, coloro che mi hanno cresciuta, dire che l’unica soluzione che avevamo davanti era quella di chiudere tutto mi si è stretto il cuore. Non ce la faccio. Nessuno di noi può sopportare questa opzione, ci siamo guardati tutti e abbiamo detto no. Continueremo a spenderci nel Servizio e a fare sacrifici per far quadrare tutti gli impegni, non importa la distanza, le corse per prendere treni, macchine, autobus. Teniamo tutti troppi al nostro gruppo ed alla nostra pelliccia per vederla chiusa in un armadio. Io a fare Servizio in un altro gruppo non riesco, nonostante ci abbia pensato per quasi sei mesi. Io non riesco a dire di no al mio gruppo, alla mia pelliccia. E per far continuare tutti noi ad avere la possibilità e la voglia di fare Servizio c’è stato bisogno di fare un cambiamento. E questo cambiamento sono io. Quest’anno non indosserò la pelliccia ma porterò il fazzolettone. Quel servizio che tanto volevo tre anni fa adesso è stato inevitabile. Quest’anno non sarò più Bagheera ma la Capo Reparto. Lascerò i miei bambini e mi dovrò relazionare con gli adolescenti. Io detesto gli adolescenti. Sarà una sfida immensa.

Accanto a me ci sarà Matte, il mio primo Akela ed adesso il mio primo Capo Reparto. Io e Matte siamo una bella squadra, ci completiamo e sappiamo arrivare dove non arriva l’altro. Mi sento tranquilla ad affrontare questa sfida con Matte ed Eli accanto.

Prendere consapevolezza del cambiamento è difficile, l’idea di lasciare i miei bambini mi fa piangere il cuore ma adesso c’è bisogno che io lasci la mia pista e prenda il sentiero.

Bia Raux just appeared inside Quel's house and told her she was always a test and Quel needs to live with her outside Valigma!!

.... Just because Quel was finally organizing her house and making it cute 😭

[anonymous-dentist]

coisinha besta que me lembrou o felps de breaking dawn: o ak!felps correndo assustado pra longe da foto da ak!quel quando a bagi disse que ela era um urso. o homem carrega traumas.

se essa é a minha forma indireta de perguntar em qual forma o bd!felps via o cucas? Talvez. mas você não precisa responder, o mistério também é bom

Felps is wearing a very comfortable set of pajamas rn, as voted by my followers over a year ago
