PUBLIC CHANNEL - DAY 157

Nightrider Lambert here. In case you haven't heard by now: the things on Kerner Island eat settled daemons. So find somewhere else to take a daytrip. If you go anyway, do me a favor and keep your radio on you. That way we can all hear what it sounds like when a soul gets eaten.

[ He's about to leave it on that cheerfully sarcastic note, but then the faint sound of a female voice chimes in, scolding. For those who've met her, they'll recognize it as Lambert's daemon, the golden-eyed polecat that wears a hawk's shape outside the carnival. ]

Lambert! You didn't have to say it like that!

[ It doesn't seem to shame him one bit, though, since Lambert's going to keep right on talking: ]

For those of you whose daemon hasn't settled yet, that doesn't mean you get to be an idiot about going out there. Slipping and breaking your neck would be a stupid way to die. That said, if you're interested in doing some nightrunner work--

Come find us! [ The daemon interrupts again, louder this time, and there's a brief sound of a scuffle before her voice finally comes through loud and clear. Now it's Lambert who sounds more distant (and distinctly annoyed), though she talks right over him. ] We've got a map and other things you can use!

[ ooc: Lambert and his daemon will both be replying to his post (and probably fighting over the radio button, honestly). For ease of clarity, her responses will be in italics! ]

If exploration is a goal
I have no external soul.

[Though panserbjørn armor might be their souls, Zecora has no certain sense of that from hers. She is certain that it is of her, a greater part than simple worn accouterments, but that is far from being the same thing.]

If you can still feel
A soul can heal.
You're not bereft
If there's any left.

Though I have not yet surmised
If that's true when externalized. [Daemons just raise all SORTS of question to her, and experimentation would be dangerous at the very best.]

That is indeed a shame.
Complete loss is not the shame.
The soul can't regrow
If none is left, you know.

Such pain and strife
Is part of life.
I've learned to tend
To those I must mend.
The wounds they abide
Are not all on the outside.

[Of course, more of it is common sense than Lambert seems to realize. Souls are not convenient discrete parcels, even if this world manifests them that way in no small part.]
