you'll become one

January 20th arrives the same as all the days before it. There's no great pulse of warning that throbs through the air, no ominous wind that causes the bonfire to shudder. The spirits are neither agitated nor do they hide. You could almost miss the change, if the lanterns weren't always by your side. There's no explanation that comes with the way that it's changed, but it's impossible not to worry when it's happened so suddenly.

Maybe it takes a few days, or maybe it only takes a few hours, but suddenly it isn't just the lanterns that have changed. You, yourself, have become somehow different. It's possible that you won't even have the right state of mind to wonder how long it will last. At the very least, it appears you aren't alone. All across Beacon, lanterns are changing, and changing the people with them.

Out in the distance, the lighthouse's beam has turned green.

"And because they're dead people, they don't exactly have anything left to lose. What else are we gonna do?"

He still doesn't like it, and it's clear on his face. "Gods, I hate being trapped. I hate not having options. It gives me a rash."

"There's options," Stone counters. "Some people are even exercising them. Doing something, doing nothing, getting in the way or making trouble. It's not like Beacon is a cage, it's pretty big, and nobody's keeping tabs on what we do here. And most of us aren't even doing much about the big problem." Says someone who really has no idea what to do about the big problem besides maybe find the World Eaters and bite them.

"I do like exploring," Molly muses. "It's not exactly any different from home. The maps just have gaps, but the chances of getting murdered or eaten are about the same."

Exandria is a colorful place. He misses it.

"Obviously you need someone big enough to not get eaten," Stone suggests, brows going up. His winged form, after all, is bigger than almost everything he's seen here, so far.
