76th Winter, 513AV
Kalinor
Outside the newly constructed Opsum Home
In a city as small as Kalinor, Rumors spread like wildfire. Many had heard tell of an increase of resident Zith in the city, but most wrote them off as ghost stories, rumors, likely put in place by the esterians to cause unrest. So very few gave a thought to the construction of a new building within the underground city. The masquerade was written off as a fluke, a sputter, and by some, even a conspiriscy. No one was willing to let their city fall into an uproar as it had over the past few season. Rather fear or courage, the Symenestra held true to their resolve. That is, until rumors of the Opsum Home's true purpose were confirmed by the ruling couple. And now a great crowd gathers before the home of the Zith. And so must the Ochya, creating a protective barrier around the building's stone face and single silken cord, to keep the masses of people from storming the place.
"My children are not safe!" Cries an eldery silver haired Symenestra. "None of us are so long as we let animals reside within our walls!"
And she was not alone. At least twenty Symenestra were clustered on the building's roof, in an attempt to push past and evict its residents. Five ochya stood gaurd outside the spire's entrance, ensuring that Kalinor's citizens did not climb inside.
Vass Vervein smacked his spear against the buildings roof and raised his voice to a deep yell.
"Return to your homes. The construction of this place was sanctioned by Nessora and-"
"We are not safe!" Shouted Demyan Anice. He furled his brow and turned to the other Symenestra, who were all attempting to shout over eachother.
Vass Slammed his spear against the roof again and shouted into the crowd. "Return to your homes!"
