Day 461 ( June 9/10 )

When the Travellers wake up, they will find a message sent to every bracelet in the city:

As per the agreement between the gods and their Travellers, all persons within Asgard are humbly requested at the castle courtyard for enlistment in the Holy City's war efforts. Every individual is invited to find their resolve and seek out their purpose; this is the final stand in Ragnarok, and your help is needed now more than ever.

Enlistment is mandatory! Please see your local officials for more information.

A friendly if not a touch formal invitation to what will essentially be Asgard's job fair! A mandatory job fair. This is why we can't have nice things.

The castle courtyard and the streets leading into it will be crowded with bustling natives and several booths, not uncommon in appearance to the many festivals they've had over the last two years. This time, however, there is no music or celebration to be had. Everyone is hard at work organising their efforts for the war and doing their level best to assist in the transition.

Day 462 ( June 11/12 )

The fair will continue for two days, to give everyone time to get down there and make their decisions. Anyone that hasn't signed up by the end of this day will be visited at home by a city rep and a few guards that will politely ask them to register for a group and weaponry if they plan to carry it. Refusal will land them in jail for the day, where they will still be politely asked to please, seriously, just pick something. Anything. Uncle Odin wants you.

At the end of the fair, there will be food and drinks to thank the Travellers for their support and cooperation. Throughout the entirety of the event and for the rest of their stay, the natives will be more reverent and grateful than ever than the Travellers have chosen to stay and fight at their side. They will do anything they can to help them win this war; this evening will be one of camaraderie and appreciation for the past, present, and future sacrifices to save the World Tree.

Vietnam was supposed to have been worse, but that was decades before I was born. Honestly, padre, it shouldn't surprise you. Your own good book pretty much said it would always come. Humans are just like this. You put three in a room, and eventually one of them will want to punch one of the others for some reason.

[She shrugged noncommittally.]

Don't get me wrong. I don't like it either. I got sick of being killed for stupid reasons after the first time, but getting them to stop's like trying to go cold turkey for me. It just makes the inevitable bender that much worse.

[She might have been correct, and yes, the bible did intimate it, but it didn't stop him from wishing fervently that it wasn't the case. He did want to see the best in everyone, after all.]

I can't help but hope things improve. Sometimes it seems like hope is all we've got. [It might have been a little plaintive, that thought.

And here is where he has a problem. He doesn't want to hear that humans killed her, not someone as intelligent and as obviously fed up with her lot in life as her. But he is who he is, and his training and beliefs are always going to be there.]
