Hey everyone!

I am posting here to take a moment to give everyone an update on Purple Lace.

So you are all very well aware that Xun'rok took his loathing to a completely new level when he decided to shove it to Lace and Strike her computer. Unfortunately, Xun'rok was a little TOO excited and did a bit of an overkill. In addition to committing compucide, some residual vibes from the Strike also affected Lace directly! As a result, she took a hit to her health and had to seek medical attention and has been under her doctors care since Wednesday of this past week. But don't you worry! Lace is a tough lady who has proven, time and again, that it takes more than some maniac with a napoleon complex (I'm not referring to Xun'rok's height here) to keep her down.

We spoke today and Lace is well on the road to recovery and expects to be back in game at some point early in this coming week. She is hoping to be back by Monday or Tuesday at the latest. She wanted me to thank everyone for their well wishes and concerns during her absence and can't wait to return and get right back into the thick of things. She also asked me to communicate to those working with her on projects and such to keep at it and she will be with you all very shortly.

Thank you again for keeping her in your thoughts and for all of the supportive wishes for her. She truly appreciates it and misses everyone!

Hoping you're all having an awesome day,

Coraal

Just a few more days and I will be back on my normal schedule and not have to spontaneously leave a role play or resist playing at all. A lot of the action happens so late at night for me that i just cant justify staying up while I know I have to get up at 5:30AM and that's a total bummer because I really, really miss being around regularly. Starting this Saturday you should be seeing a lot more of Hael around like normal. But every summer -as long as I am at this job- I'll be having to wake up and go to bed early. :C

Sup guys? Was just talking with my sons bestfriend about games. That led to conversation on my alltime most beloved game, Underlight. That then in turn led to me googling Underlight, reading an article by the RPG Archeologist about UL, that led me to checking out the forums. Awesome to see you guys still playing. Though I would likely not have time to get back in myself who knows, maybe Star Scream could show up. I'm always curious about were the dreams of my old friends has led them. Catch ya later folks!

I'm taking time away from Underlight. Not sure on a timeline of return. Apologies to anyone reliant on Dreiko for things IC but I'm sure whatever GMs are available will be willing to provide support.

I won't be in tomorrow because the wonderful David's Bridal wouldn't cut me a break like the last time for my fitting and schedule it on a weekend. They know I work all day Monday-friday, those jerks. :x So I can only come in before work. That's gonna be one really, really, really long day and I doubt I'd be alive enough by the time I get back from work to focus on anything happening. And there may or may not be issues by the weekend with hurricane Irma possibly clobbering Florida. That we'll just have to cross our fingers and wait. Hoping it circles back and fizzles out.

That made me laugh after such a cruddy day. We'll try though. And so much for my "I hope it circles back and fizzles out." ugh. Good news: No work Thursday or Friday for me! Bad news: Might not have power at some point. Booo... With Dimitri's job it's a toss up as to what the heck they're doing during this hurricane party.

Sorry for the short notice, I was notified at 0100 Eastern that I'll be flying down to Tampa at 0600 this morning for work, I don't know for certain what our timelines will look like yet, so if this causes any erratic times in my dreaming for the next few days, I apologize to those affected.

Try to have fun on the trip, and to Hael and Dimitri's controllers... I know it doesn't mean much, but my best wishes and hopes for your safety. At least you can say definitively that most the rest of us don't know what storms are really like :P

Ew. Uthanatos, don't come to Florida. It's not a fun place right now.

And thanks, Arnaya. C: We're no strangers to hurricanes and Tropical storms. Growing up in Puerto Rico kind of made me a bit desensitized to it, so I'm morbidly amused at everyone freaking out here. We'll try to give updates as often as friends and family want. It doesnt look like where my city is will take a direct hit, but thr storm is definitely big and will make an impact. News sources can't seem to make up their minds on weather or not landfall is Sunday or Monday.

Sorry for the notice everyone, but Coraal will also very likely be MIA for the next few days thanks to the lovely arrival of our unwelcome houseguest, Irma. I have lived in Florida all of my life so hurricanes and other weather related nastiness is par for the course at this point. I am really hoping Irma decides at the last minute that the prices of tourism in Florida are really just too high for her fixed income and she decides to head north and back out to sea, but we are keeping our fingers crossed either way.

For those of you in the state of Florida, the Caribbean, or along either the Gulf or Atlantic coasts....my thoughts, hopes, and prayers go out to you and your families. Please be safe, make sure you have the supplies you need if you are riding out the storm, and a solid evacuation plan in place should it come to that.

Heading out now to report to base (work for an airline...yay! Not) to see what my own role will be in the coming days. In retrospect maybe it really would have been a better option to look for real estate in Lightless, huh? I can't imagine a storm affecting them too much down there =D.

Take care dreamers, and I'll see you as soon as I can.

Be safe you three, my thoughts are with you. You're better than me, I'd be a nervous wreck! Never seen/experienced a hurricane before myself. Though I've been through tornadoes and earthquakes!

Earthquakes would be terrifying in the Lightless :P
