I'm rather misty-eyed reading your ic post, and also your ooc post, thank you Kadigan, and thank you Rin. <3 A really inspired way to end Rin's story. Or maybe to begin it? I love it so much!<br/><br/>And it occurs to me as I think and read back that things may have seemed a bit on-trails on time, reading back it actually seems a little that way in retrospect. But what was going on behind the curtain was that what the little spirits did running around the island triggered the future events and I tried to give little hints of that here and there. For example, it was<em>because</em>someone went up high and spotted a ship in the distance that the ship came at all. The baby elephants talking about being able to see a strange thing in the distance was the hint of that.<br/><br/>So yes there was a mix of obvious results of choices (i.e. picking your element) and not so obvious at all. I think it worked out okay.<br/><br/>It was a very experimental game, and I don't think there's been much like it before on E. It definitely took a very creative and flexible bunch to try it out and I really cannot thank you all enough for being the ones that did. I loved it! <3
