Fellowship of Animus | First Council of Sages

[sageprincess]

Characters: THE FELLOWSHIP OF ANIMUS aka pretty much everyone
Setting: Floor 38, early afternoon - forward-dated to July 29
Format: Party style - pick your poison
Summary: After repeated delays, Zelda and Gandalf have finally called the populace of the Tower to discuss productive means of dealing with their situation.
Warnings: None yet, will edit should something come up

It's taken far too long to get to this point.

Come Sunday, the various couches and armchairs of the uppermost lounge have been arranged in vaguely semi-circle-like patterns, with chairs from other floors scattered amongst them to increase seating even more. The semi-circles face inwards towards a central point to facilitate discussion among a large group of people. Though this is by no means a party, small slices of Lembas bread are available on tables around the perimeter - though there is no shortage of food, the hungry tend to be less cooperative, all the same.

Outside, the sun shines brightly without a cloud to obstruct it, but the atmosphere inside is much less carefree. Considering the purpose of gathering here this day, it's to be expected. Should this council succeed, it may very well change life in the Tower as everyone knows it. If not, well... one should certainly hope individual efforts begin to bear more fruit than they have in the past.

Sora had been trying to find a place to break into the discussion for a little while, now. Sure, the boy had no fear of speaking his mind. But serious, formal meetings like this weren't something he was used to, and he wasn't sure exactly where or how to make his point.

Finally, he decided to stop waiting. Now was as good a time as any, and Xion needed his support. Besides, this girl, whoever she is, brought up a really good point.

"I'm with Xion, too." Sora said. "If there's a way to way progress without everyone getting hurt, then we should all put our heads together and find it! Besides, she's right. Who knows what they could do if we keep trying the same thing over and over again? I don't want anyone to have to take that chance, either."

Enough bad stuff happened around here without everyone just rushing into it. Sure, they might have to be brave and take risks, but...if there are ways to get things done without too many people getting hurt, Sora was all for finding those ways.

He had seen enough friends hurt already.
