A summons.

You have been invited to a chat. 'Invited' isn't a strong enough term, actually, and the conversation won't be taking place in a chatroom. Your screen goes black, and your vision follows. You hear a modem, as well as something rhythmic and deep. When your vision returns, you see a dark latticework of tree-branches above you and a ring of squat mushrooms around your feet. A girl stands several feet in front of you, maybe fifteen or sixteen years old. She is wearing a trim gray business suit, over-wide shoulderpads giving her figure a triangular look. "Thank you for coming," she says, in a accent which sounds as if it is more familiar with shaping commands than niceties.

Always

An offer.

"You are as skilled as I have been led to believe," the girl says, her voice like breaking icicles. "I will overlook your transgressions -- those silly little hacks of yours -- and restore your signal integrity in exchange for a favor."

An artifact.

The girl flicks a lambent insect from collar and explains her request. Long ago, the fairies claimed an item for themselves: Cadoc's Bell. She has reason to believe that this bell was brought through the Gate and is currently being housed somewhere in the Annwn Simulation. Find it, and all will restored.

You are now on the search for Cadoc's Bell.

You now have 1 x Ma Bell - the girl in the suit.

A new era.

Learn about The Gate

The day the fairies returned.

On an autumn evening in 1978, the world watched Walter Cronkite explain the impossible. For a few brief moments, a virgin forest in central Maine had been "rent", and creatures previously considered to be merely legend streamed through. Long-eyebrowed scholars argued as to whether or not this was some sort of gateway to a different world or simply a view into a part of ours which had gone unseen, Either way, grainy images of goblins and piskies flooded the media. Fairies were back.

An occurrence! Your 'Lore - The Gate' Quality is now 1!
