'Sup.

hey dude
the other gang was talking shit about you behind your back and i felt sorry so i decided to whistle blow

Bro fr?
I take that you got my Quarrel handle from one of our mutual friends?

serpent gave it to me

Figures it'd be him of all people.

yeah
i doubt bunny wouldve done it as easily
hey btw serpent told me some whack shit today that seems relevant to you

Oh boy, I wonder what that is! 🙄

lmao
i see that i am hardly the first to talk about it with you
but unlike everyone else, i actually have quite an insight into the mechanics of things
its simple really

I am sure it is, but at the moment it's more confusing than anything.
Like, I am talking to you via a new froggy tablet I received that somehow works despite lacking wifi and a normal internal storage.
I am already on that stage of the event tree.

lol, i see
well i am not sure how that even plays into it but i can tell you that the events that are happening right now likely cannot be stopped anyway
am i correct to assume that youre at an impasse of sorts?

Huh.
Yeah kinda?
I got this flying frog fairy here that whisked all my Funky Gnomes away and now I gotta somehow get them back!

as i thought
a similar thing happened to those who already entered faer

"Those"?
Is there anyone besides SS and GG?

musky and alien also

Huh, with me that makes 4 then.
I haven't heard from AA in a very long time.
Didn't they left our group a few years ago due to some mental issues or some shit?

i talk to them a lot actually!
its not so much anything heavy but just socially overwhelmed and wanting to focus on themselves a bit
i still play Minecraft with them on the regular with voice chat

Glad to hear they're okay, at least.

far from it, im afraid
apparently theyre stuck in some kind of nonsensical limbo place, which is unlike gothics situation

Oh fuck.
If he's still talking to you then I guess it means they're okay.
They haven't accepted my friend request yet though, which is the sole request left to be accepted.

he hasnt rly responded in the past 2 hours, but i also didnt actively talk to him this afternoon
i think hes just busy wandering around and solving mysteries with his new bud

Found a friend, didn't he?
I am noticing a pattern.

aye
seems that anyone bound for faer either gets a guide beforehand or after entering faer
at least from the few examples we have right now

So...
Am I to assume that I have been destined to go there regardless?
Y'know, because I now have this guide character in my living room.

serpent is not going to like that, but effectively yes

Great.
Awesome.
I was really looking forward to gaming today but I suppose I will just suffer through this ordeal for now.

oh and another thing

Hm?

i am pretty sure you cannot exit faer
at least, not easily

Wait, what?
How do you know?

both alien and gothic tried but found that the entrance they came from had warped into a dead end
in aliens case the door to the hallway just opened to a green void that surrounded his room at the time
you will likely end up the same way

Oh no, I don't want that.
I am contemplating if losing my gnome collection is a worthy sacrifice to stay here... 🤔

given that your and gothics guides seem to have exited faer somehow without much issue, i think you should be fine
i only think alien is truly locked inside of faer
they did tell me that his surroundings became more sensical as he got further into it, so maybe things will turn out fine for him

Well ain't that spooky.
I am unfortunately encouraged to go by my brother also.
It seems he is familiar with the place I am going to, so I can only conclude that I will be fine as long as I get this over with ASAP.

thats good to hear at least
keep me updated will ya!
and if you need some more mechanical knowledge on the place, i think i can help you out
my advice is definitely less vague than any of serpent's ramblings thats for sure

Lmao, yeah.
I'll ring the bell if something comes up.

sweet!
looking forward to it
