Game Received: Appearance Change game (anondress, male), Day 398, night to Day 399, all afternoon
Team Played With: n/a
Memory Form: a small compact mirror, completely silver and reflective on the outside—the inside is filled with water that cannot be poured out, and shows a distorted reflection. Indefinitely shareable.



Karigan stepped out into the overcast morning, leading The Horse down
the alley to the main street. The stableboy watched after them wistfully,
probably hoping for another copper. He deserved it, Karigan reflected.
The Horse gleamed despite the dullness of the day. She just could not
afford to dip into her reserves for more coins, but she had made a point of
praising the boy for his fine care.

The main street was still muddy. Townsfolk walked on wooden boards
lined in front of nearly every building and storefront, but the boards didn't
help if one had to cross the street or veer off course. Women held their
long skirts high, their faces in perpetual frowns as they trudged through
the slop. Karigan grimaced herself as her foot sucked in the mud. The
shine on The Horse's coat would not last long.

Game Received: Duckling's SnipeHunt game, Day 402, Night
Team Played With: RUBY + AMETHYST + HELIODOR + Yarrow.
Memory Form: a flashlight! 3 uses. The light on the flashlight dims after the uses are gone, but could still probably be used.




A noise awakened Karigan. Someone was in the room bending over her
bed, and it was too dark to see who. She reached out into the gloom and
grabbed a handful of hair. Her assailant squeaked.
Karigan tugged harder.

"Ow! Stop it!" a girl cried out. "I'd like to keep my hair if you don't
mind."

Game Received: Lorelei's music game, Day 407, afternoon
Team Played With: Peridot
Memory Form: a large flake of sun-dried red dulse. Eat it to receive the memory. One or two uses depending on how big a bite you take.



Karigan had not realized she'd fallen asleep in the big chair until she
awakened to find Miss Bunchberry gently shaking her wrist. "Supper, dear
child. Letitia has outdone herself."

Karigan stretched and yawned, and nearly walked out of the room with
the crystal cupped in her hand, before she remembered it and replaced it
on Professor Berry's table of oddities. Of all the objects in the library, the
crystal seemed to be a source of light and warmth, and possessed no
twisted qualities like the telescope. The silver light extinguished as her
fingers released it. The room grew dark and uninviting without its
radiance.
