From: Leo
Date: November 17th

[Leo sounds tired as he starts the recording, but this is easier than typing right now. His hands still hurt.]

Now that everyone's had a few days to recover from that disaster, does anyone have any idea what the fuck was going on in that forest?

[He rarely swears, but give him a break here.]

Who says you can remain sitting?

[Nope, he is gently having you lie down as well because you asked for this.]

[brynwieldr]

[Leo laughs as he's tugged down, curling up next to Aymeric.]

I was getting there. I've just...got a lot on my mind.

[trademark_skull]

Who knows. I don't really understand how humans think. [If they did, their own job might be a little easier before becoming a god.]

But I also wouldn't be surprised if it's something as simple as using to it take over the world or whatever. Why else do it after all?

[brynwieldr]

Spite.

[trademark_skull]

Spite?

[brynwieldr]

"The gods won't answer my prayers, so I'll do this to spite them".

[onedrinkwithme]

[It's not the ideal way to help but it's something.]

We have time if you wish to speak on it.

[brynwieldr]

I didn't even think before I said you were my fiancé.

[Welp.]

[onedrinkwithme]

[Yeah that was awkward as hell. He's pretty sure that was a slip of the tongue, right?]

And was that all it was?

[voice]

[deniles]

Still. You sound like you've never said it before and that's false.

[trademark_skull]

They would kidnap gods just for that?!

...Actually, how did they figure this all out? Like, about where the forest was and they had to get those spells from somewhere.

[There was also the fact the cultists Emizel dealt with seemed completely oblivious they were even there. Or they were just very stupid lackeys. Either way something wasn't quite adding up.]

[brynwieldr]

....I'm not sure.

[He sighs.]

You're more than just a lover or beloved or whatever word you want to use, Aymeric. I just...

[brynwieldr]

Someone else pointed out that the clearing we found them in was in the Near Shore. That doesn't explain how they found it or why it was connected to the forest here, but it's something.

[voice]

[brynwieldr]

And you would know if I've said it before?

[voice]

[deniles]

I live with you.

[onedrinkwithme]

It does not need words, your feelings have always been made clear from the beginning. It is what I love most about you and what never needs to change.

[But they had been through a lot these past few days and emotions are raw along with the wounds received. People can say things without thinking, that's human nature.]

[voice]

[brynwieldr]

....shut up.

[voice]

[deniles]

Hey, Zoro's busy, you can't say I'm being too loud.

[trademark_skull]

That could simply mean anything too. It's possible that the forest already had some spiritual connection and the humans took advantage of it.

Did they say if there was anything else special about it?

[brynwieldr]

They didn't. They were mostly unhelpful.
