The Harvest Faire: October Catch-All!

[ As the sun rises at the start of the month, a forest of colorful tents arises outside the city gates. It is not an enemy encampment, though, unless you hate fun. Then yes, it is an enemy encampment. Fun is assaulting the Kingdom in full force, as Harvest Faire fever sweeps across the nation. ]

[ You may join crowds of eager people on the initial days, or wait until the mania has died down to a more casual flow—but either way, there’s a lot to see and do at the faire. It all has to do with people trying to sell you on their religions by showing you their October Best in holidays, but the people of the Kingdom know that if they’re boring or too hard with their sales, no one will come back. So expect a fun, full immersion experience into this or that cult! Food, beverage, and substances will be provided, along with any props you may need to participate. ]

[ Or, I guess, find opportunities to get paid to be a carny, if money is more your speed than fun. ]

[ Cults are on a rotating schedule, so they won’t be the same every day, but eager acolytes will be glad to tell you when they’ll be back in the tent again, so you’ll be welcome to come back again. Maybe even bring a friend along with you? They’re often all smiles on the advertising side, no matter how macabre or dark their faith may be. ]

[ And hey, look, on some days, there’s empty tents... ]

[At this point he's used to people asking about his scars, when he actually wears clothing that displays them. He is not used to people just straight-up touching them with no preamble, but he supposes he has to get used to casual touch now. At the very least he saw that coming, because if he hadn't he'd probably have punched her in the mouth on reflex.]

Those? Those are from bullets. Small projectiles fired at a high velocity, fast enough to pierce the skin and do incredible amounts of damage internally. Something like an arrow with hundreds of times the power behind it and no shaft to aid removal.

...Oh.

[Well, that's... fucking horrifying. She frowns, letting her hand drop back to her side.]

They sound fell indeed.

They can be, if you don't get out of the way in time. Luckily I've gotten very good at that.

[It's not like she can see his stomach, but there aren't any bullet scars there, because he's not an idiot. If he's going to get hit by a bullet he is going to do his very best to make sure it's somewhere like an arm, somewhere non-vital, something he can lose the use of for a little while while he's healing up.]

You have faced many foes so armed?

Then this place must be a welcome respite.

[And also she's a lot more admiring than she was thirty seconds ago. He may be old, but an old warrior is to be respected, especially one who has faced such dangerous weapons.]
