#frog cancer

[sburbian-sage]

Something is seriously wrong with my session

Everything seems malformed and warped in ways it shouldn't be, god man i just

The imps scream in agony and bleed while ogres slough skin and flesh

The poor prospitians, they were all dying when we entered, some kind of plague from what we could gather, the poor queen was half dead like she was rotting apart

We tried to investigate derse but our rage player never came back so we gave up trying

Im a heir of time this session and its just awful, time feels like its stuttering and stopping before something breaks and it keeps going, on better days it feels like im walking through old syrup

Our space player has been near comatose since we started, if she does talk at all its all just utter nonsense, like her words aren't coming out in the right order

We've all heard of those "haha what if sburb was creepy" crap posts on the forums but this is a nightmare

Its like our session has cancer or some shit, a frog with two heads

Im scared and dont know what to do

Wow, that sounds genuinely awful.

First thing's first, confirm whether or not the Rage player is in fact dead or not. Or "suffered a death versus actually dying". I know that's going to be difficult between your sluggishness and the Space player's comatose status (and who knows what else), but you'll need to figure it out. The next step is going to be a bit difficult, so you'll need all the help you can get. Not to mention, it's always better to figure these things out before making big plans. For all we know Derse is fine and they're just too traumatized to want to leave. Either way, you have two equally undesirable options before you.

Option 1 is to complete the game. This ranges from "difficult" to "untenable" with a low hazard rating. All the enemies seem like they would fall apart with one blow, with the Black King potentially collapsing into a pile of blood and tumors if you hit him once. But at the same time, your group seems pretty disabled. Not to mention, who knows what other aspects of the game are broken. Or if it's even possible to breed a Genesis Frog, between the low quality of the entire universe, and your Space player being out of commission. If you go through with this plan, try contacting your Denizen for help. They're almost always unaffected by shit like this.

Option 2 is scratching the game, which might make things marginally less awful. The downside, of course, being that you're unlikely to survive it unless you do a Ring Voyage. I don't know exactly what happens if you stay in one place while the Session scratches, so I'd play it safe and just skedaddle. The Others should also be unaffected, and you'll need their consent to enter the Furthest Ring. You will, of course, also need a vessel. The Battleships and Meteors are always good choices, but you need to steal or be granted the former, and the Space player (or lots of explosives) to fling the latter. In both cases, I would double-check the physical integrity of both, to make sure no Corruption leaks through (on top of other prep, like getting a Grist stockpile, food, etc.) You'll need some coordination and elbow grease to activate the Scratch Construct, enter your vessel, and then take off before getting caught in whatever happens next. The silver lining is, of course, that once you've left the Session, the fact that Reality Is Shit will stop making you stutter, and will wake the Space player up. They will not be happy to find themselves in another status where Space is non-euclidean or otherwise doesn't make sense, but it's probably better than wherever they are now.

As I said before, two tough choices. You're going to need some willpower for this one.

While strawberries certainly are a reddish-pink color and are roundish in shape, the origin of the name “Strawberry Moon” has nothing to do with the Moon’s hue or appearance.

• June's full Moon is typically the last full moon of spring or the first of summer. The June Full Moon will be extraordinary. For the first time since 1985, Full Moon happens precisely on the summer solstice, when the Sun is highest up. Because the Full Moon is always opposite the Sun, this year, you will see that the Moon is 10 widths lower on the horizon than the Sun ever is. 

This “Strawberry Moon” name has been used by Native American Algonquian tribes that live in the northeastern United States as well as the Ojibwe, Dakota, and Lakota peoples to mark the ripening of “June-bearing” strawberries that are ready to be gathered. The Haida term Berries Ripen Moon reflects this as well. As flowers bloom and early fruit ripens, June is a time of great abundance for many.

The history of Litha reveals its deep connections to ancient agricultural societies & their reliance on the sun's power. Celebrated as part of the Wheel of the Year, Litha symbolizes the balance between light & darkness. Throughout history  customs such as bonfires, herb gathering & the construction of sunwheels have marked this festival. Today, Litha continues to be celebrated by various communities, with gatherings at sacred sites & private rituals in natural settings. It serves as a reminder of our connection with nature and the cycles of life.

• The traditions of Litha appear to be borrowed from many cultures. Most ancient cultures celebrated the summer solstice in some way such as the Celts celebrated Litha with hilltop bonfires & dancing. Many people attempted to jump over or through the bonfires for good luck. Other European traditions included setting large wheels on fire & rolling them down a hill into a body of water.

Litha is often associated with Midsummer, a celebration that extends beyond the pagan and Wiccan traditions. Midsummer festivities are observed in many cultures around the world, including Scandinavian countries where it holds a prominent place in their cultural heritage. Midsummer dances, bonfires, & feasts are integral parts of these celebrations, often accompanied by folklore and traditional rituals that honor the sun's energy and the abundance of nature during this time.

The summer solstice is the longest day of the year & in some traditions, Litha is when The Sun(The God) is symbolically at it's peak time of power & the World will soon be ripe to harvest. It is also when The Goddess is pregnant with The God who is to be reborn at Yule.

• In the Northern Hemisphere the Summer Solstice occurs when the Sun reaches its highest and northernmost points in the sky. It marks the start of summer in the northern half of the globe. (In contrast, the June solstice in the Southern Hemisphere is when the Sun is at its lowest point in the sky, marking the start of winter.)

Some also believe the history & spirit of Litha revolve around two deities, The Oak King & The Holly King. In Wiccan and Neo-Pagan traditions, each King rules the Earth for half of the year. From Yule to Litha, the Oak King rules. On Litha, the two battled for the crown and it is then that the Holly King triumphs. The Holly King will rule through fall until Yule, and the cycle will begin again.

• Vestalia- June 7th -15th

Was a Roman religious festival in honor of Vesta, the goddess of the hearth & the burning continuation of the sacred fire of Rome. It was held from 7–15 June & was reserved as a women's-only event. Domestic & family life in general were represented by the festival of the goddess of the house & of the spirits of the storechamber — Vesta & the Penates .

On the first day of festivities the penus Vestae (sanctum sanctorum of the temple of Vesta which was usually curtained off) was opened for the only time during the year, at which women offered sacrifices. As long as the curtain remained open, mothers could come, barefoot and disheveled, to leave offerings to the goddess in exchange for a blessing to them and their family.

For the last day, the penus Vestae was solemnly closed, the Flaminica Dialis observed mourning & the temple was subjected to a purification called stercoratio: the filth was swept from the temple and carried next by the route called clivus Capitolinus and then into the Tiber.
