Ooohh new mod, hello !!

Does Clarent still follow the knife/knives theme?

- 🫟

hello hello!! yes it does! funny thing about the sword theme is that after curtana told me it was my turn next, i actually spent almost an hour looking at famous sword names before landing on clarent.

clarent is a famous sword from arthurian legend, and was a sword primarily meant for peacetime before it was later wielded by arthur's son, mordred, to kill arthur himself.

officially introductory post with zero lore or anything. hi everyone! i'm clarent, and i'm taking over for curtana. there's a lot of messages in the inbox that i'm going to start clearing out, so if you're waiting on anything in there it should be out pretty soon. i'm excited to meet everyone and hope you all have a ton of fun!

if you want to engage in story with me, make sure to add "mail:to" at any point in your message so i know whether to put my grizzled apocalypse hat on or whether to just process the mail as usual :)

Mailto: mod Curtana

From: mod Bayonet

Hey, thanks so much for all your awesome work! You really make this event something special, and we really appreciate you. Looking forward to this year’s event!

...oh. that's kind of you. i don't know if curtana will ever read this, but i should start putting all of this mail for them somewhere. after all of this, i'll figure out a way to get it to them. it's good to know the mailbox is still linked to HQ, though.

[hcguesstheauthormessageboard]

it's been lovely doing ask games with you all, but i do need people to be more respectful and kind in the inbox. talking about abandoned wips is not a reason for you to spread hate and negativity about events and people in the mcyt sphere. please be kind!

that said, i've loved reading and sharing what you all have to say! just be careful not to break anon!
