Poppy's record for making consistent updates: 1 day

ANYWAY, continuing to spend his time near the oak with his family. Grew nervous when a two-faced stranger (Jude) was invited over by Warren. Hid in the oak and peeked his head through the cracks in order to get a closer look. Finally came to the conclusion that Jude didn't pose a threat, and even sniffed him. U go Imil

And then Warren got mushy and Imil stood there awkwardly bc that's what he does best

Awoke to discover that Koll had brought them birds to eat. Thank u brother now I can partake in pseudo-cannibalism-jk. Was a little suspicious at first--not of Koll, but if whether or not the food itself was okay to eat. But it was? I mean he's not dead yet so I guess so

Tentatively asked to join Warren when the latter spoke of her intention to go wash off by a pond. Probably wouldn't have even gone if Khara hadn't asked to go along as well. Thank u sister ilu. Was told by Roma to call if they needed anything.

Began to grow nervous as soon as they got a distance from the oak. Fortunately, their destination wasn't far. Surprised by the size of the pond--hadn't expected it to be so big. Clung to Warren and Khara nevertheless, the presence of strangers causing him to be extra wary.

Surprised to see a bridge spanning over a stream that branched out from the lake. If this place had bridges, maybe it had other structures, like Father's world had. PANICKED when Warren ran to wash off beneath a stone statue that was spilling out water into the stream. Sister bls what if it's actually thousand feet deep and also there are strangers there do not die

Except Warren didn't die nice. Remained huddled close to Khara nevertheless, keeping an eye on a large stranger (Akos) sitting near the statue. Grew nervous when Warren seemingly taunted him, though fortunately, nothing happened.

Khara suggested that they head back. Quickly agreed and followed after her. Died inside when a stranger walked close to them by the pond, although they went away soon after. Practically ran back to the oak where the rest of his family remained. Snuggled up to Khara for a while, before rising to check on Jhinzou. Rather surprised that his youngest sibling was so...animated. He'd only been born yesterday, after all...

Overall feeling rather restless. Wants to know more about this place, but is too nervous to venture far. Made a note to ask Father more about it when he was feeling better; also thought about asking Warren more about her home, since it seemed that they held some similarities. And by that I mean that both of their moms are fkn MIA

Had a small talk with Roma when he followed out the latter to gather berries. Voiced his concerns about one of them getting hurt; was adamant on the fact that no one should get hurt, even though Roma assured them that it wasn't necessarily a bad thing. Returned to the tree with the berries, where he decided to ask Father more about the world he'd pulled them into.

Was told that this place was apparently watched over by two gods. Found the notion somewhat unsettling...wasn't used to the idea of a god proper, much less two of them. Was also told that the world was small, and seemingly repeated. Grew terrified at the idea of being trapped in such a tiny world--Father, however, described it as more of a "sanctuary" than a prison.

Wondered if this being such a small place meant that there wouldn't be many "bad" people in it. Was told that the "good" ones outnumbered the "bad." Was also told that there was no risk of this world getting destroyed. Bless

Met his sister, Sedirea, later on! Had trouble pronouncing her and also thought she was a god nice. Overall, found her very interesting, even if she wasn't actually a god. lmao kid do I have some news for you

Awoke to chaos. The place he had finally grown accustomed to calling home was in shambles, collapsing in on itself. Ran through the halls of his family's villa, desperately attempting to find his siblings before he was abruptly pulled into another world by his father.

"Awoke" at the base of a great oak tree, with his siblings around him. Father was there too, though seemingly crippled. Panicked, wondering if he had somehow been injured in the attack. Could only watch as his elder siblings--some of them unfamiliar--attempted to patch him up.

His elder brother, Roma, managed to receive help from a stranger (Halla) in obtaining medicine for Father, as well as milk from two others (Fletcher and Cierra) for his newborn brother, Jhinzou. Clung to his known siblings throughout the ordeal, afraid to interact with anyone outside of his family. When Father finally awoke--to Imil's great relief--he revealed that everyone that he had pulled into this world was related to him. Relieved to know that the unfamiliar creatures surrounding him were in fact his kin.

Was asked if he wanted anything to eat; admitted that he might like some berries or fish, albeit reluctantly. Asked if there was anything they could do to help his brother, Solas, who had been seemingly injured. Fortunately, Alma and Roma got to work fixing him up.

Asked Father if there was a chance that his mother might have made it out. Took the news that she likely hadn't surprisingly well, as he had seen her die months before. Erupted into an unusual fit of emotion, begging that, now that their family was finally together, for no one to "disappear" like his mother had. Was told by his "new" sister, Warren, that her mother had disappeared too. Oddly comforted by this; wondered if disappearing was just something mothers did.

Asked Roma to be careful when he went to search for a place to stay. Eagerly ran up to greet him when he came back, speaking of a place that might be able to shelter them. Watched as a few of his elder siblings went to further scope it out; mustered up the courage (well, kinda...) to follow them. Got only a short distance away before his sister, Alma, and his "new" sister, Gaea, followed him; greatly relieved by this.

Gazed in wonderment at the Ruins--decided that it was nice, although home had been nicer. Momentarily panicked when Alma ran off to greet a stranger--had it in his head that everyone outside of his family posed a threat. Went so far as to cast a momentary illusion in an effort to make in seem as if the stranger had "disappeared", although this lasted only a few seconds. Suffered temporary bounce-back, going blind for a few seconds; this was something he was used to, however.

Continued to cling to Alma and Gaea. He cling forever

Forced himself to follow his siblings to and from the ruins to the oak, and even managed to make the 300 yard trip himself at times. Eyeballed a stranger (Liam) who seemed to be speaking to Alma, Roma, and Koll about their predicament; feared that he was planning to do something, but said nothing, instead running back to the oak. Peered into the tree to see a complete stranger hovering over Minerva. Panicked, asking her who she was. Barely gave her the time to answer before casting an illusion of invisibility on himself, before running for the ruins to alert his siblings.

Basically fkn...appeared out of thin air sCREAMING about stranger danger. Luckily, Roma followed him back to the oak, where it was discovered that the "stranger" was in fact another sibling of theirs,
Zenzi. A bit confused, but agreed with his siblings when they suggested that Father had pulled them all here somehow. Awkwardly apologized to Zenzi, leaving her to sit quietly with Minerva.

Forced himself back to the ruins, where he huddled with Gaea as the older siblings discussed the merits of accepting Liam's help. Still hesitant about the whole thing, but was reassured that Liam alone could do nothing against them. AND AS IT TURNS OUT Liam was actually genuine in his offer to help--he disappeared briefly, only to return with blankets, pillows, food, and water. Felt rather guilty about having doubted him, but managed only a awkward half-bow before returning to the oak. Prodded at the things Liam had brought them, just to make sure they were safe. And they were! probably

Settled down with his family, trying to keep his mind off of what had happened. Wasn't so much bothered by the apocalypse that had brought him here than by the thought of his mother.
