The Little Mermaid: Act I—

---

§ instructions.

The first Act of our third campaign is underway! This is the designated log for all Main Scenes. Others are free to create their own toplevels for the Sub Quests, which are detailed below. Each Main Scene has their own unique toplevel and those cast into the roles are to thread their scene under each. All scene instructions are provided in the toplevels. There are also toplevels for each Sub Quest this time around, but players are more than welcome to create their own individual toplevel if they have something else in mind they would like to do.

As a reminder, characters will find similar information and instructions within their journals so they won't go in blind. Also to note, all characters will have all their belongings within them as well as the additional supplies provided to them by the Storyteller. As you know, everyone has undergone a special "mermaid" transformation upon arriving into the Book, but do note: characters in Main Scenes will have a second wardrobe change while acting the scene. Their merform will stay the same, but they'll have additional bits to add to their role. Outfits will be provided in the prompts themselves, and these outfits will only be in affect during the scene. The moment they leave the setting area, they return to their other wardrobe.

Finally, just to be clear, characters who are in Main Scenes are not immediately dropped in to their location and will have to travel to the "setting location" and then return. Threading all of that isn't necessary, but it's to help give a better idea that characters can take a break between scenes or wait a bit to help with other things like the Sub Quests.

Feel free to refer to the Game Notes for more detailed info as well as ask questions or clarifications.

With Roxas's assistnace, Shizuo is able to slam his tail up against the statue. Although not enough to push it off, the swing combined with Roxas's attack is enough to stun it and allow him to do a forceful shove forward with the anchor. So with a loud yell he sends the heavy weight off to the side before pushing himself up off the ground.

T'ch. Fighting underwater is definitely annoying.

"Thanks," he quickly says with some heavy breaths during the brief respite they have as the merlion writhes on the sand, a part of its tail and leg now broken as well.

"Don't mention it." He sends a quick nod to Shizuo, before turning to face the statues. While the merlion was writhing on the sand, the eel and crab statues were advancing.

"What do we do? Do we attack them?" He's down for a fight, but will that help their task??

[hatesviolence]

"Don't know what else we can do. If we leave 'em alone they might try and attack others or destroy the garden."

In a way it's a shame to destroy works of art, but he isn't even sure if these are real statues, Erasers, blots, or what. And with how careless the statues are moving, tearing through the ground not caring what's around them, soon the hard work will be ruined.

Roxas frowned, looking at the status once more. It was a shame to destroy them, but they would make their tasks harder. He twirled one of his Keyblades in his hand.

"Then let's take them out as quick as we can!" And with that, he pumped his tail and darted forward, swinging at the statues with a yell.

Shizuo only nodded before hefting the rusted anchor in his hand, easily lifting it before he charged in a slightly different direction to take care of the other statues. He swung the large above without any reserve, the steel, rusted as it is, more than enough to smash and cleave the statue he faced. Even as a second scored his tail, he just spun slam his fist into it, crushing the stone as if it were made of clay to make part of its head crumble.
