TWO TRUTHS AND A LIE



There have been a lot of riftfarers arriving lately. It seems like there have been more arriving than usual. So many different kinds of people from different kinds of worlds with stories to tell and experiences to give.

A little game has appeared on the shellphone network in hopes of getting to know just a little more about these otherworlders. You might find it on your shellphone as you’re scrolling through one day.

Tell the world two truths and one lie about yourself. And let others try and decipher which of the three is your lie. If they can guess right, perhaps you’ve been able to make a new acquaintance. Or in the least learn more about someone from another walk of life.

They'd be gone now, right? Guess they can't give us any hints how that getting back on purpose works.

But people sometimes get dragged back here, don't they?

If they have, I haven't found any proper accounts that detail such instances, but I would not be surprised if something like that has occurred.

[He could go and ask the riftfarers who have decided to settle here, but... 'Alhaitham' and 'asking nicely' are two things that don't tend to go hand in hand very often. It's maybe earned him the ire of a few NPCs more than once.]

Kaveh also mentioned something about

time

I didn't really get it but these are things people'd only know if someone who went through going home came back. Or if someone else told their story but that'd be hard to prove.

Time can be... relative, I think, between us. There is no difference between the time Kaveh and I 'left' Teyvat, yet our arrival was set apart by two months.

[And he doesn't know about the rest of you guys but it is certainly something to note. Whether or not that actually means anything though is a different conversation entirely.]

But yes, you're right. There is no way to know for sure unless somebody who has returned comes back, but I doubt that's something that will happen anytime soon.

He mentioned that. So to your, it war like you only saw him a minute before you got here?
indispensable: (argument.)

[personal profile] indispensable 2024-03-14 01:23 am (UTC)(link)
More or less. An hour, at most, but hardly anything more than that.

[He was lowkey real weirded out when he met Kaveh here and realized that there was a two month difference that's for sure.]

[And now she's weirded out.]

I don't even want to think about how that works. But I guess we won't be missing?
indispensable: (patience.)

[personal profile] indispensable 2024-03-17 08:33 am (UTC)(link)
Maybe. There's no real way to know unless one of us happens to have made such a trip.

[And as far as he is aware that hasn't been the case.]
