".... I believe it's finally about time I do this."
Icia sits down by her fireplace and starts writing down the same thing on many, many pieces of paper.
This is what she writes:
"Help Wanted to reclaim Digital World"
"I am forming a party to rescue a digital world from a tyrannical AI that is terrorizing and abusing many. Due note that this will not be a safe or small feat, and there will more than likely be many perils involved that could result in serious harm and death, or possibly abstraction. All help is appreciated, but this is not for the faint of heart. I will be willing to supply more details to any and all who are interested. There will be no 'reward' other than the honor of rescuing those in danger and access to a grand, royal, fantastical kingdom that shall flourish once freed (although hopefully, all will be able to access it once saved). Transportation will be by pirates across the void, and I can introduce all who would like to meet them beforehand."
"A letter will be sent out by wind to all who are interested/ willing to fight once plans are finalized and set in stone. I look forward to working with whoever is willing to join me."
"PS: Weapons and a strong sense/understanding of self are highly advised. You may visit me at my house or find me on a walk to ask questions in person, and I will answer to my best ability."
"With my utmost gratitude and fair wishes to you all,
Icia"
Icia finishes the flyers early in the morning, letting the wind carry some to varying locations and visiting other locations she knows of to post them. She posts the flyers at Candleton, the circus, the inn, Oceansbay, the bar, anywhere she can think of.
Now all she has to do is wait.

OKAY IM FINALLY FUCKING DOING THIS
GOD
Okay so.
You heard her
KINGDOMQUEST WOOHOOOOO
Here are the basic rules and info:
I do not have definite days for any of this yet. However, I'm aiming to be ready in 2-3 weeks.
Any number of characters are allowed to join, but you will only be able to rp 1 at a time (with exceptions if you have a good reason, like how Raina and Lance used to be one person). There will be checkpoints where people may switch to different characters between sections
Ik I said you can have as many characters as you want, but please ensure you'll actually use them. I'll try and make this long enough for everyone to use their characters at least once, but really there's no guarantee. Don't just add characters because you can.
I may do what Elsie did and split the quest into two parties. In that case, you can have one active character in each party. This is unlikely, but if it happens then that's how this will go.
THERE WILL BE NO CHARACTER DEATHS EXCEPT FOR THOSE THAT ARE DISCUSSED WITH ME BEFORE HAND. Any other "deaths" (losing all HP) will just be knocked out and unable to use for the rest of the quest unless revived. This also goes for permanent injuries.
No abstraction. None. Characters can get close, but there won't be any full abstraction.
No OP moves (that should be a given).
No Kingdom characters will be allowed to participate in the quest. They are part of the objective, not the fights. Even against Hexe, no CURRENT kingdom members will be able/allowed to fight
No being a smartass and finding loopholes or questioning the rules of the dungeon (you know who you are, love you <3)
Just so yall know what to expect. There'll probably be 4 sections, maybe just 3. There'll be a boss for each, and the very final section will just be Hexe. Plan accordingly.
PLS ask me if you're confused abt something. I'm probably forgetting a couple things to add here but shhhh, yall get the idea
If yall wanna do lore drops during this too, you totally can! If they're really big and will kinda be like a side thing, do be sure to let me know first!!!
Ok I think i got everything down....
Once again, ask me if you're confused abt something or have ideas bc god knows I need those. Also, be sure to DM me which characters of yours will be joining (if any).
And I think the only big delays will be for Dusk and Jessy trying to escape the Railroads AND me being lazy but Imma try and not have that second one happy
OH YEAH ONE MORE THING
THERE WILL BE LORE SCATTERED ABOUT FOR A COUPLE OF MY CHARACTERS, ESPECIALLY SOME THAT HAVE GAINED SOME POPULARITY...
KEEP YOUR EYES PEELED.
I'll reblog/edit this with any necessary information
But for now
GOOD LUCK.
(BTW you don't have to participate if you don't want to, it's ok to not be interested! Also if a character IS participating, just do a really quick in-rp post (or have them send a letter to Icia) & tag me in it so I know.)
I’m pretty focused on introducing the OCs I’ve been working on a while right now. I have a handful. This is Birdie, my OC for @forever__cosplay ‘s tag, #KingdomQuest! They’ve been fun so far! I’m already kinda falling for them, and I’ve only just introduced them. Their backstory is a sad one, but they’ve found a new home in the kingdom, and a new loyalty to a wonderful queen. #OCCosplay #OriginalCharacter #MischievousBirdie #OC #Tiktok #Videos #Dubbed #cosplay #cosplayer #cosplaytag #roleplaytag #KingdomQuest™️ https://www.instagram.com/p/BrDgOVhACzm/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=kdv4zk4u7q47
and shadows burst up, thicker shadows, stronger and darker shadows. shadows that WILL protect the ones she loves most.
I HAVE HAD ENOUGH OF YOU!
*Icia runs faster than she ever has, trying to get there in time. She can't lose him, she can't lose him, SHE CAN'T LOSE HIM.*
*The hand speeds past them all, maneuvering around Phoenix and Raina's shadows. It gets closer, and closer, it's about to get him.....*
*But it doesn't.*
*He's standing between them, a few feet in front of Lance. With Icia's second sword, driven straight through Hexe's palm.*
*Achilles.*
*Sweat drips down his face and arms. The fog around his neck is more concentrated than anyone else's. His feet slide against the rocky gravel just slightly.*
*But one small adjustment, and Hexe finds herself completely unable to reach any further.*
*The sudden nature of the shadows provides all the protection needed for the blast to reach the rest of the party.*
*When they open their eyes, there's a huge, glittering dome of pink and yellow surrounding them. Clouds of gentle, warm, golden-pink wisps cascade around everyone, not only healing them entirely.... but providing an odd, newfound sense of strength and energy. ALL PARTY HP RESTORED.*
*The rest of the beam has split off into paths that ascend into the air and around the arena, providing a close enough range for Hexe to be hit with melee attacks. She tries to back away, only to realize she's caught within the paths that provide her very little space to properly move.*
*Her smile has faded into a furious, disgusted frown.*
NEW STAGE CONDITIONS
- EVERY PARTY MEMBER MAY FIGHT. MAX OF 2 CHARACTERS AN ASK.
