SUNDAY JUNE 24TH...

... all happiness comes at a cost in Fenrir's Wood. The beautiful summer weather and the fun event at the lake, with a murderer on the loose, seemed like a bad idea. Even if groups of people banded together to protect each other. Even if the Council made sure to keep an eye out.

That still did not stop it from happening.

A dark-headed woman stood at the edge of the lake just before dinner time, anyone near her would've said she looked like she was in a trance. Nobody was in the water anymore, a few people lingering at the edge, up to their ankles.

There was a loud plop as the Empty Spot appeared, a sudden surge of Magic several meters off of the coast. Humans and Werewolves did not feel it, but any Witch even within a hundred meters could sense that it was off, could find the sudden pressure of too many spirits rush through their whole body.

They had no time to register exactly what had happened before the screams started and the bodies turned up. Ten of them, laid out on the coast near the Lord's Wood, and a message in the sand written - as one police officer was quick to noticed - with red paint.

this is where it started.

While the police started their surge for the murder, hoping to find them back in the woods, the Council was left to deal with the new Empty Spot, and a first possible connection to its creation. The dark-headed woman was no other than Evanora Ray.

presenting THE DUCK FAIR

Every year in the last week of July Fenrir’s Wood holds its annual summer fair: fun rides, games, food trucks, stalls, talent shows and more are spread out over Sans Park and squares around it. The Fair is famous all throughout the UK as being one of the best places for rides, the organisation trying to outdo themselves every single year. In the mouths of the locals it’s been dubbed Duck Kermis or Duck Tivoli, and it’s the one thing you can’t miss this year! 

So join us between the 25th of July and the 31st of July for an amazing fun time!

THURSDAY…

… as the last of the local humans take a step away from the great tree, and the last of the people stalk off after the vigil is concluded, a low rumble can be felt along the place, vibrating through any bodies still present. The rumbling continues for about a minute before it disappears as quickly as it appeared, leaving any passersby with the ominous feeling that something is wrong.

Werewolves smell the surrounding area but find no hint of anything big enough to have made the sound. Witches sense in every direction but find nothing powerful enough either. It isn’t until half an hour later that the last person leaves the tree, and a small crack appears in its bark, just above a framed picture of Lukas Thorsun.

SATURDAY...

... The March Full Moon was lacking in answers, even when Jörmungandr appeared and Odin defeated it (while perishing himself), the Wild Hunt remained a subject of confusion. The Supernatural Council of Fenrir's Wood is, even a month later, nowhere closer to figuring out what exactly the Midgard Serpent tried to achieve by replacing the Riders of the Wild Hunt. But there is a fear, a constant expectation: it will all start over again. First the murders, then the dreams, then the sleepers, and perhaps the disappearances will start again as well. If not... does that mean they've been stopped?

The Supernatural Council is proven right, as they feared, because almost a month after the start of Spring, another body is found. A hiker - a Werewolf to their luck - stumbled upon a clearing within the Lords Wood filled with fog, and as they came closer and the fog parted, they found the body. A Werewolf from the Glover Pack by the name of Bryan Ericson became the first victim since January, and the eleventh murder. He was found under the same circumstances as the other ten, though it was only after the police had a look, that they knew the spree had once again begun.

THE DUCK FAIR: a time to have fun

IC DATE: Monday 25th of July till Sunday 31st of July OOC DATE: Monday 25th of July till Sunday 31st of July PARTICIPATION: non-mandatory THREADS OUTSIDE OF EVENT: allowed! TAG TO USE: #fenrirduckfair

The annual Duck Fair is here! Sans park and several nearby squares have been decorated and transformed into the funnest event over the summer. Several rides like a ferris wheel, swings, bumper cars, and rollercoasters are set up in the park itself, with food stalls and games leading out in every directions. Stalls where local artisans sell their wears are set up in the squares, with more local food being made and sold to hungry fair-goers. 

The Duck Fair draws a lot of national attention, and many local businesses shift their attention outwards into the fair to earn more money, with hotels and hostels all booked and local pubs and bars constantly filled and merry. 

Once more, despite the horrible things that have happened at the beginning of the month, the whole city comes to join in and have fun!

MONDAY DURING THE VIGIL…

…REZA HARRIS, local bad-boy and Witch, exited the Fenway Library for a smoke, being one of the first to wander outside after the vigil, and the very first to turn his back on the street and look back at the building. 

LET THE CURSE END

Not impressed, REZA HARRIS went back inside to get a second opinion. Before long, all of the people in the library were looking at the - later to be discovered - red paint on the ancient brick, warning them about something, though what exactly, no one knows.

THE VIGIL: a reconnection of souls

IC DATE: Monday from 5pm till midnight OOC DATE: 27th of June till 11th of July PARTICIPATION: mandatory THREADS OUTSIDE OF EVENT: allowed! (but be sure not to rp further than Tuesday morning) TAG TO USE: #fenrirvigil

In light of the recent murders, several volunteers and friends of the dead have planned a vigil. While at first only for Esmee Dahl and Lukas Thorsun, Merrin Rolf’s name was included as well. The vigil starts as a small walk through the neighbourhood of Fenway, from the Fenway Pool, to the University, to end at the Fenway Library, where hot drinks and cake has been prepared for those who participated. Candles are supplied by the local church, and the food donated by several businesses. 

It is a rainy and cold afternoon despite the time of the year, and while the sun doesn’t go down until around 10pm, the sky is dark throughout the march.

MARCH 25th…

… despite the horrors that have transpired the past year and the year before, the city’s government has still been able to get the national swimming competition to be held in Fenway Pool, drawing plenty of tourists and journalists. Upon request of the Council, the government has been convinced to postpone the actual championships to the next day, since the first day would otherwise fall upon the day of the Full Moon. 

Instead locals are invited to come to Fenway Pool and kick off the festivities without outside eyes. The whole venue is packed, and local schools, famed swimmers, and other initiatives have prepared enough to fill a two hour program.
