A. WINTER WELCOME

The current avalanche of the wrong Summoned into Solvunn is greeted by a rather cold and bleak winter morning. The locals are quick to try and help, offering lodgings and warm clothes for those that otherwise prefer to explore instead of staying inside. Those originally summoned into Solvunn are likely to be around, lending a helping hand should it be needed.

Despite the odd circumstance of arrival, the Summoned are not kept to one singular place. They are free to explore the place and become acquainted with the locals. One could stay in the Primary Settlement, venture towards the many different shops and homes and farms; venture a little further out towards the inn, or to the lakes where the treehouse is; or make the proper travel arrangements to go to the Secondary and Tertiary Settlements. They will be welcomed in all the settlements in a similar fashion, and—as is customary with the Summoned—be asked to help around, be it with repairs, finding lost livestock, checking up on shrines, and any other task to help abate the woes of winter and the trouble caused by the earthquake.

One warning remains the same, though: do not stray away from the paths. There are monsters out there beyond the border of the settlements, so it would be best to travel in pairs, or stay within the realm of safety.

B. TREEHOUSE PIT STOP

The fate of the Summoned in Solvunn, like in the other territories, is not to be too far away from one another. The commune is small, though, which allows for a stronger bond; now, with so many gone and swapped elsewhere, it's a little more difficult to know where they are all at, currently, within this territory. Wanda tosses the idea around, to get people to come to the treehouse to know of the place. It's closest to the Primary Settlement, and, from here, the Summoned can find a path to wherever they deem best to go to—back to the Primary Settlement, towards the inn, or maybe even further south towards the Secondary Settlement.

The newly arrived Summoned are free to explore the space. They can step into the garden and explore the edges of the forest, or even greet Eli the goat and Clover the horse out in their sheds, though they will expect an apple or another treat for their troubles. An orange cat will follow the new strangers about, curious, and demanding attention, or even leading them further inside the treehouse. It is warm and cozy inside, and the different stairs will lead up to the different floors, doors opening up onto balconies and towards walkways across trees, to netted landings to look about. In the main house, some rooms are locked, but Wanda will let everyone know that they are welcome to make use of the amenities and to sit around if they want.

Something smells really good, coming from the kitchen, though. Carmy has been here for a couple of hours, cooking his anxiety away. Stepping inside the kitchen, snacks can be taken, but outside will be an area set apart, thick blankets streaming down the ceiling to enclose the space and keep the winter cold from affecting the dining experience ( 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 ). Anyone can come and go, sit down, and then step away; a hearth at the side keeps the inside warm enough to cozy up.

( matt honestly thought she'd have a bigger reaction to him showing up here but all she does is give him a scarf and then she's leaving.

he opens his mouth to say something and then closes it before nodding. )

Sure, okay. I'll just...be here.

( he pulls on the ends of the scarf and then steps back to walk away. )

( he's doing that thing, where he gets in on his head, tries to see where he fits within the bigger picture. it makes wanda pause, then smile, drawing back towards him. her hands reach to grab at his shirt, keeping him from moving too far away. )

You can invite yourself to join me.

( it doesn't have to be anything more, or anything less. )

I actually don't want you to leave my side while you're here. You'll end up in a hole or something.

No, it's okay. I can just kind of chill here. I don't wanna get in the way.

( he smiles a bit when she pulls him closer and gives her a quick kiss. )

I know you're Miss Popularity here. I can just hang out.

( wanda can't help but pout, despite the kiss, and her hands move to grab onto his arms. she is unwilling to let him go, and knows that he doesn't really mean anything by letting her go do what she needs to do.

so—

she tugs at him, taking a step back, and then another, until they're both walking together. )

Come with me.

If you insist.

( he sighs though he doesn't mean anything by it and comes along with her. )

We going anywhere specific?

( as he acquiesces and falls into step with her, wanda draws close, arms wrapped around his, making it so that they walk close together towards her next destination. )

I'm getting some blankets from a local. We might as well try to find you a coat.

( the scarf will help him keep warm, but not if he's going to stay out for long. )

I'm not that cold.

( okay, he was a little cold but he doesn't want her to go out of her way. )

I'm used to New York winters, I can handle this.
