The group had grown, and the spirits had become calmer, though new things came with each turn of the planet in it's solar system, and change sometimes was something good, sometimes it was bad. Time would remain to see, to remind of things to come and things that had already come. Love was found in places it wasn't supposed to be, and it remained to stain the living with taunts of what they could not have. Finding peace in a time of war was a hard and difficult task, but the group seemed to take such a challenge within stride. Chuckling, the NPC spirited their way into the cave system of the group, creeping past individuals that were locked in sleep. Pausing in front of the board, the creature looked up with a gentle smile, noticing the slips of paper that had been removed from the last time that they had visited. Rumbling in soft amusement, they took their leave once again, leaving behind new papers and tasks, a special one folded below. It was the month of hallow's eve, and the creature supposed that these beings may or may not take interest in such celebrations, to enjoy a time where chaos had once ruled. Perhaps the spirits would be awake that night, to cross the veil and speak with their family and loved ones. Leaving behind only the scent of cold water and cherry blossoms, they were gone, as if a phantom.

Upon the board in folded papers rested tasks in relation to this month and the month prior, seasonal and not. Life carried on after all. Awaiting those who would come and discover such a place, the papers rustled in the slight breeze cutting through the caves, stirring fur:

head lifting from forelegs, they stretched with a yawn, breath mingling with the warm air of the caves. damp was the air that surrounded them, their lungs aching at the moisture. they had never felt better rested, but to their senses came a soft scent of unknown origins, as if it had been a ghost in passing. it wouldn't surprise them, the caves often had a few spirits, mostly youths who hadn't left their nests before fate took them from their families. stretching, the kingpin flicked their tail, body aching in places they hadn't known they had, but ever so grateful to be able to move. they could feel the tension and stiffness in their paws, the jaguar body they owned tender. unsheathing and sheathing their claws, they growled in delight, ears flicking at the sound of paper fluttering in the wind. turning their gaze after shaking their pelt, the kingpin approached the board, greeted by the sight of new papers awaiting them. humming curiously, they hooked a paper down, finding a task related to tea. pulling a second one down, they nudged it open, greeted by the sight of a task detailing the preparation of skins and hides. chuckling in amusement, they took their tasks and moved to depart to brainstorm on how to make such things.
