Ordinary thread ideas
Ymiden & Saun, 724
- Meira died
- Meira's funeral burning
- Taking stock of stock
- Catch myself some trappers while collecting in the forest? Probably about to drown a few peaphoenixes for their feathers. (Field craft, deception)
- Forming a bond with Pea (several threads, focus on animal husbandry)
- Catching some grasshoppers and then roasting them for snacks, maybe consider creating a small grasshopper farm for personal use? Probably need a few attempts to perfect a grasshopper trap and scouting out the best location for it within the Mistral
- Post Echoes series of 'consequence' threads, focus on medicine healing people's sleep from upsetting dreams that may or may not be related to the outcome of the modded thread, happens after the modded thread and before the Echoes disappear; gradually worsening pandemic - research waking dreams, stuck in nightmares, sleep paralysis; have a case of being stuck in the nightmare unable to wake and struggling in bed rushing over to the house to cure on spot
- Go to rharne to collect Light Agira around lake Lovalus in Saun for its medicinal properties, get to Rharne for around Saun 13th and adopt yourself a dog with a special ability.
- overnight stay somewhere with Vahekoh
- creating remedy for Vahekoh in the shack
- Explore Creeksong Caverns
- Visit Rosebay and meet Dandelion, have some drawings ready for suggestions on trap improvements, make it happen around the end of Ymiden so Elowen has time to go back to the shack before heading to Rharne to gather Agira and get herself a dog.
- Shrine duty - Ethelynda's shrine off of Storm's edge on the way back from Rosebay - mod alert for Pig and rewards in bounty board if still active bounty
- Eseld wanting a love potion for seducing ciaran.
- Eseld returns before end of saun (between 26th and 39th) to ask for some top up on something for someone, but mainly complains about an eidisi who had taken residence in one of the rooms, Elowen asks about the potion and Eseld admits it doesn't really work but at least when she smells the pouch she feels better which prods Elowen to think more about using scents to induce certain mental states (mostly that of calm but later expand to focus, etc.)
- post creeksong nightmares
- Going to shrine of souls with Caz and Az to learn about Famula and the ritual required for Elowen to speak with Meira on 31st vhalar, happens post ethelynda shrine dute
- Train Ark's recall with Cass' Boozehound
Vhalar, 724
- Meet with Tunawa's of the Mistral Woods after witnessing one stealing an offering from the tree and feeling it her duty to go and tell them off, join it with Pig's starter quest suggestion here. First see stealing, then hear about mushroom, then pluck it, then have a face off.
- Collect Ginkgo Tree leaves and seeds, join in with Fledgeling fire.
- Discover she is an Aukari through accidental erupting during the Eidisi scholar plot, saved by a defiance mage who immediately wants to give her up to authorities and charge her with whatnot but the village convinced him otherwise or Eseld does or something.
- 31st Vhalar - speak with Meira's soul if Elowen had already discovered that she was an aukari
- find Meira’s diary after she had discovered she is an aukari after 31st
- Initiation into Attunement
- Order’s apothecary at dust quarter clinic, set up regular herb supply (post vhalar 31st)
- Meet Winston to discuss enchanted harvesting knife and fireproofing clothes pin (meet in relation to the point above? Maybe discussing regular supply?)
- Frequent visits to Rharne to be mentored in magic, introduction to Liv, meet ups with Cass, complaints from villagers that she is not around as often as she is supposed to be, start travelling into the village and deliver remedy packages for the duration of her absence (increased requirement for cataloguing things - another character concept of a teenager from a library who could help her with that??)
- Meeti Seira at Hannah's Healers and start teaching her Gernevoir
Ashan, 725
- Take interest in Stormlakes and rejuvenation efforts; visit them and meet with the few character concepts you have in store (the nomadic tribe-ish sort...kids around a qi'ora who live on edges of Stormlakes) (Liv tag along)
- Learn about Rharne's tears and start experimenting with that (Liv tag along)
- Encounter Magnipede (Liv tag along), see if you have animal husbandry and training up to expert at least (sort of becoming animal whisperer), work on the idea of scents as a way to calm a psyche
- At some point after these efforts are started, consider becoming a warden of the lake via Viv or Genna
At some point in the future
- maybe create a friendship with Eseld
- Help at the clinic in dust quarter once to hand out remedies based on doctor diagnosed ailments
- Set up a seasonal supply of most common remedies into the clinic
- Have someone teach Elowen how to be literate so she can attend Botany classes in the institute in Rharne
- Consult Winston as well for edible healing goodies
- Depending on her conduct and after she had become significant among the warden group and progressed some as attuner, consider getting her the mark of Ethelynda
- Explore Yngwyll and consider encountering and gradually befriending Lumen Wolf - increase animal husbandry and perhaps some animal training?
- consider having her branch out to creating scents that make people feel a certain way (eg Eseld in Ailments of the heart), need science at competent or expert for that and cosmetology probably at higher; consider scents and how they make Elowen feel to calm herself etc. work with Eseld and her ideas, Vahekoh;
- travel out to Scalv to explore the herbs there (after having explored most of Rharne) and there findt the Guarana berry (strong coffee sub, pretty to look at, climbing plant), attempt to transport back to Rharne to grow in her shack;
- meet Doran whilst in scalv to have some lessons about isolating essential oils (I have a feeling Elowen will not be fond of alchemy at least performing it herself seeing it as unnatural enhancing of sorts).
- Vist Hannah's Healers, feel like this would be the kind of place for Elo to learn and vibe
- Focus on the shack as a business at some point and try to start running it as such (e.g. better way of recording things = needing to learn how to be literate)
Memories
- Memory thread - visit summer shrine on west side of Mistral with Meira during hot cycle, Meira paying respect or asking forgiveness or something? Elowen learning about other immortals there so therefore establish relationship with the caretaker
- Memory thread of small Elowen meeting an Eldwyn (creature curious about this new child and Elowen utterly lost after being sent out to collect some mushrooms (medicinal herbalism) and so so fearful again, happened soon after Elowen was taken by Meira to the shack)
- Memory threads with Meira - when Elowen was found, journey back to the shack and Meira’s purchase of scarf and the directive to always wear it during the day, once when Elowen didn’t have it Meira’s remark and Elowena drive to then wear it always before Meira came out of the bedroom
- Meira witnessing Elo bashing a tree to scare the squirrels that live inside. Meira gets incredibly angry and gives Elowen a massive telling off (what kind of punishment?). Elowen had not been in the woods long, it was some trials after her meeting with Eldwyn and so squirrels were trusting their select hiding spot to be safe which makes Elo's behaviour even worse in Meira's eyes.
