[ archived ] mailbox
Welcome to the NPC mailbox. Characters are free to send letters to the various NPCs currently in charge of the city. All replies will also be written and sent via messenger bird. Replies may take a while as they are busy officials.
Requests to meet NPCs in person are doable, but there is no guarantee it will happen—at least immediately. Efforts will be made when possible.
Since inquiries are sent via letter, you can write them as long or as short as you wish.
To schedule a thread with an Arehtei, refer to this entry.
To send a letter, fill out the following form and include the message.

Miss Cartwright,
Thank you for the quick reply. I didn't think to ask about those who also experienced those emotions but no reaction. The discussion with the otherworlder who was uncertain about his own emotions lining up with Daimonia made me realize I will need to revise my line of questioning for the next time, so I will be sure to open up the discussion to as many people as possible once I have the opportunity.
You mentioned alignments could come from concentrating on certain emotions-- do you think, then, that it would be hypothetically possible for someone to create their own reaction by concentrating on feelings of joy or grief? I wonder if it would be worth it to ask and see if anyone would be willing to try.
I don't know how viable it will be to have everyone keep track of their emotions with how scattered we all are, but I will see what I can do. I will keep collecting as much information as I can in the meantime.

Shun,
When investigating, you have to ask every question, even if they don't seem relevant or insignificant. You never know what answer you'll find that could lead you into a new direction.
I think anything is possible at this point, so you can't rule that out. The only way we'll know if it works or not is if it's tried.
To be honest I doubt everyone in your group would even be reliable. It would be better if you had actual volunteers who would be aware of what they feel. There's an exercise we use on children as they develop and train how to deal with their emotions, especially the problematic ones. They keep a diary of what they feel, when they felt it, and what happened. It's simple and effective, so you could try that.

Miss Cartwright,
I'll definitely remember that for next time. Thank you for the advice.
I think I will reconsider the survey questions and ask for volunteers next time. Since my crystal already reacted, I will have to find someone willing to try to focus their emotions to see if they can cause one of their own. I will ask people to volunteer to keep journals as well.
Will the exact contents of the journals need to be known? If there are difficult memories people are worried about, it may make it harder to find volunteers.

OOC Questions: Would another reaction occur if someone focused their emotions?

Would you like me to look over the questions?
As for the journals, no. Specifics are always helpful in pinpointing certain issues, but I doubt they would be required in this kind of exercise. A larger sample will also reduce any need for specifics.
