Welcome to Republic City!

It was a bright and sunny normal day in Republic City. Children were playing, spirits were chirping about, and everything was going along like normal. Well at least that's what everyone seemed to think. That is until so many people seemed to be appearing out of nowhere. For some reason Republic City seemed to be more lively and the crowds bigger.

The spirits have grown restless as if something important was about to change, and to try to fix that change, the spirits with their big long tree like limbs dragged people into the world left and right. Even the vines covering Republic City seemed to help. Although the spirits had the best intentions in mind, some people were more affected by the grab than others. There's talk that people in this city don't even know what this place is. People who have never heard of the words "bender" or "non-bender."

Welcome to Republic City! And to those who already live here: Happy Saturday. Please make yourselves at home and don't mind a little spirit gunk. It's mostly harmless. Go enjoy yourself a classic mover. Maybe you're the athletic type. If that's the case, come watch a few Pro-bending matches or form your own team. Just watch out for any Satomobiles. They can be deadly no matter how pretty the driver is.

Please remember to enjoy your stay and don't cause too much trouble. The Republic City Police don't need more riffraff to take care of. And don't stray too far. To make the the peace is kept, there's a huge spirit barrier around the perimeter of the city. It seems pretty strong, but it won't be able to last forever. Still, it's worrying. Radio signals and telegraphs don't seem to be getting past it.

[ OOC: The game is officially open! From this point on, feel free to make any posts you want or tag into this. Please remember to tag your posts with Canon: Character.

Yes, but they also know he died eighteen years ago right before Avatar Korra was born. You must be from the past, too.

[Wan glanced around to make sure no one was passing close enough to overhear.]

Look, the people of this time know their Avatar is Avatar Korra. You can't go around talking like Avatar Aang is alive. Even if he's been brought to this time like you and I have, it's important that most people don't know that. Unless Avatar Korra wants them to, okay? You understand that, right?
gainedacoupon: (Oh my..)

But... how is that possible?
raavashing: (upset: and all of my flaws)

[personal profile] raavashing 2014-10-15 05:40 pm (UTC)(link)
It's something to do with the Spirit World. That's about all I know. I don't think anyone has figured it out beyond that, but you're not the first person I've met today that's from a different time or place. Avatar Aang isn't either.

I'm not even from this time. I arrived in the same way about a week or so ago. I've just had more time to figure out what I can than most of the people showing up today.
gainedacoupon: (Hmm tough question)

[personal profile] gainedacoupon 2014-10-15 06:23 pm (UTC)(link)
I guess... this explains why everything seems so strange and different than what I'm used to.

[ She frowned a little, trying to understand all of this in her head. ]
raavashing: (Huh: Way down the lights are dimmer)

[Wan straightened a little and just stared for a moment. Had she really not put much thought to the big differences between what she knew and what she was seeing?]

Uh... yeah. It... it does.

You should probably take some time to read up about it all. The libraries are free for anyone to use.
gainedacoupon: (Fondest memory)

[personal profile] gainedacoupon 2014-10-17 04:55 am (UTC)(link)
I guess I really don't have much of a choice, huh.
raavashing: (huh: And I would do it for you)

[personal profile] raavashing 2014-10-17 07:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, you don't have to read about it if you don't want to?
gainedacoupon: (Fondest memory)

[personal profile] gainedacoupon 2014-10-18 03:31 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't want to accidentally get anyone in trouble, and I don't want anyone to think I'm some kind of crazy person for not knowing.
raavashing: (smile: hand in hand)

[personal profile] raavashing 2014-10-20 11:43 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh. Then I guess you do have to get some reading in. Do you want some help finding the nearest library? Or getting there? I can help you with that.
gainedacoupon: (C'mon Lee)

[personal profile] gainedacoupon 2014-10-21 02:27 pm (UTC)(link)
I wouldn't mind that one bit, but first I want to help you with the medicine.
raavashing: (smile: my heart is breaking)

[personal profile] raavashing 2014-10-23 03:30 am (UTC)(link)
Sure.

[That solved, he started walking again.]

You said you're from Ba Sing Se? I've never been there. But I heard it's bigger than Republic City and that it's beautiful. Too many walls, though. One should be enough.
gainedacoupon: (Can we go?)

[personal profile] gainedacoupon 2014-10-23 07:44 pm (UTC)(link)
They don't call it Ba Sing Se for nothing after all.
