Objective #1 - text/roleplay response. This is an option if you haven't been able to make it to any of the in forest parts, but still want to contribute somehow. You can do this even if you have been to the in forest parts if you want to - it's completely optional!
Shout, scream at him for his selfishness if he is to give up now after everything he has put you through. Tend to his wound and tell him stories of what he's missed in his year of absence. Tell him what he has to live for. Whatever you want your character to say, you have until
11:30pm UK time to do it. You can reply in this blog or make your own blog with your response and link to it here.
Objective #2 - In forest
The demons still come flying through the fog thick and fast, their roars filling the forest... you must be the ones to
stop them.
Keep going, your warrior spirits are sure to put fire into Dag's bones...
11:30PM.
Though he gave no real response... He listened. To some, he had no choice but to, screaming at him to stop his nonsense. The very least he could do was open his eyes... But he couldn't. All he managed was a twitch of his ear - he hoped they knew. Numb from blood-loss, everything felt like a dream. The smell of sulfur... perhaps he was still in battle. The yelps and hyena chatter as they fell, and those triumphant roars... That is him roaring, it must be. But the voices? Were they with him? Were they fighting with him?
No, that wasn't him fighting. He could feel it. A gentle wind.
This was a natural place.
He was home. After all this time... His heart ached, and not just from the wound. What could he do? Nothing seemed to move, no matter how much he tried to tell it to. The realization that he was done had sunk in.
Will... Will isn't everything, after all. He always thought will surpassed the state of your own body, but it wasn't true. He understood how an old friend must have felt, at the end of the line, because that is all the body wants to do.
Fortunately, he wasn't the one who built him. The forest did.
There have been hard times, here and there. But they taught him right from wrong, they taught him to fight, and taught him to be... well, who he is. That's why his pictogram - his soul - could never leave.
Hah, his very name doesn't even belong to himself; there are creatures in this forest that forged every little bit of it, in their own way.
And who would have foreseen that one of them - a very small, celestial creature - would zip its way through the mayhem... to be the one to secure his fate to
live.
"... It is time now. We'll be okay, Dag."

Excited excited excited. I'll hopefully be enlisting the help of M&A to provide some foggy weather like last time too... or would night be a good option this time? I can't remember the list time I was in the forest when it was night (not twilight), is it dark enough to be a little haunting or should I stick with fog?

(This time with antlers, because I say so! xD Poor guy was so lost last time due to dropping them just before the event. xD)
I probably won't be able to participate during the night slots since they're quite late for me (unless I suddenly feel like staying up to 3am for you. xD). But we'll see. I will try to be online for the day slots and the final slot on Sunday.
I just hope I won't be confused by the fact that we change to summer time on Sunday and my clocks will turn one hour forward. xD
Oh man, I forgot about clocks
But not to worry, I'll be putting notices like 'starts in 1 hour!' etc in the title so people can work it out from there. I'll also be on skype beforehand to help people (for those who don't have it, my skype is: dagnire)
First update! All the guidelines are there, which are a re-hash of last years ones. Each day will have a different objective that will be posted a couple of hours before the first time slot on that day (:

Looked at the times and
Ah well. Ill be there.
eeee Excited for this! ;u;
Despite spring’s wake, the
But it was not.
And so they kept on shivering, outside and inside alike. The days were getting longer, and as if there was some kind of a contest with the sun, the chill was determined to stay. It was even as bold as to cover the ground with more snow; a thin layer, but there it was. One could only hope the few days of pure sun inbetween, which, despite the icy grip, managed to struggle through, would extend to longer periods of time.
Her fur was full, still. In her mind, a worry had begun to gnaw on her mood; what if this thick coat would persist, again? Summer would be another hell, literally. Well, so far, there were only so little signs of spring, even. Though; her setup had always been hopeful, and optimistic. She knew, spring would come, life would blossom, and then Summer came, to bring it to its fullest extend.
For now though, it were only her weary steps that stomped through the woods; no birds sang, and the other noises of life in the woods seemed mute. How strange, she wondered. Even for the stiff days that were passing, this seemed unnatural.
Her wander had no aim, despite keeping to move. The broad caribou hooves were mastering the ground, nothing much she had to worry about – were she was selfish as to only consider her well-being. No, in fact she had much to worry about.
But for today, she delved into the sweet grounds of having nothing in mind, no plan at all. And that would have stayed this were, would she not have passed by a hill.
This hill… stories had been told about it. Dandelion Hill they called it now; and a place of great tragedy and victory alike. For her, it was a place of great regret – another reminder how she had forsaken her friends in the forest for a whole year. Her travels had been for good reason, but she judged herself harshly, and unjustly. Not logical, she told herself, but she could not help being what she was.
Dandelion Hill. Here, the great fortress, Iaurdagnire, had found his gruesome end by the antlers of the raven stag Ephiré. Both names were not unfamiliar to Aurora, who bore no title of such magnitude herself. Not even just familiar, two friends they were, unforgettable faces in her life. She closed two keen azure eyes to take a deep breath, as if to breathe in the history of this place. Echoes of pain, torment, but also hope.
For Dandelion Hill was also were the brave inhabitants of the forest had fought to protect Iaurdagnire’s precious pictograph from the shadowy beasts. Those stories of bravery had also reached the sage’s ears.
And now? Now he rested under this hill, in hope of waking some day. Oh, how Aurora wished for that day to pass. The day in which the most respectable figure of the forest, he friend Iaurdagnire, would rise from the ground and once more gracefully strode through the woods. His appearance appeared before her inner eye; and Aurora once more breathed the past.
Spoken with utter devotion, the piebald’s tender and tranquil voice rang through the snow-covered grasses of Dandelion Hill. Three words, which bore sincerety of such weight, it could crush a rock.
”I miss you.”
And then, three more. Alight, ablaze, the lifeforce of the caribou channeled into it.
”Please come back.”
A tear fell on the snow, pure, leaving a round hole in the snowy cover.
The sun began to shine.

Can't tell you how pissed I am that I will miss out on this one. U:
