Sinking Island - Reyweld - 04-20-2016
After 200 more posts, this thread will be locked, and lost forever to the depths of the ocean of postage.
Can you shore up the island? No, you can't.
Can you discover the four secret treasures in the given time? Probably not, and even if you did you aren't going to get them off the island without a helicopter.
Don't waste posts, and don't fall for the island's tricks!

The green song birds speak to you. They whisper, hinting at the truths they know, but they require the preservation of their species and of their queen. If you can ensure a spot for them on the helicopter, they will tell you their secrets.

Abso-totes. I start finding grass to weave delicate basket-cages, and humbly request their discarded down feathers so the eggs might be safely transported.
As I pluck green blades from the undergrowth, I look for an emissary of the Littered Leafs, that they might give me a quest also.

The birds show you to a large pile of feathers, which you collect. They sing, beckoning you to follow them. Along the way, you collect some long grass to weave with. They show you to an old place, with many green and brown birds flying around nervously. The queen, a large, elf-like girl with tangled hair and brown wings for arms greets you. Her eyes are brown, and flick casually over you.
"Take us to your helicopter, and we will reveal our knowledge of the Orb of the Sun to you. We need only one of your 8 seats, we have our ways."
The grass plays the wind, warning you of the deception of the birds: "nothing but trouble, nothing but trouble."
The birds have no reaction, as if they cannot hear the grass.

Question (internally) how she knows about a helicopter I don't actually yet have.
Agree to their terms; they aren't telling me to go to the helicopter right this instant. Ask them for a good vantage point over the island, like a nice cliff or manageable mountain path.

A pilot arrives in a crashed helicopter with spinning guitars for rotors, and signage saying "I hate birds".
The pilot gets off the helicopter, saying "Do not trade in your Prius for a helicopter".

i gently land my vtol fighter-bomber masterpiece of a military jet in a clearing. on its tail is a logo- the logo of the marines corps. i hop out the cockpit. my sleeves are ripped. my arms glisten with muscles and sweat. "sup" i say, dabbing my forehead with the american flag
RE: Sinking Island - Loather - 04-20-2016
"heh.. looking for treasures? i work for a living, buckos. and the work i do for a living... is deadly"

I move to the Observatory, shore up the Temple of the Moon, move onto it, and draw two cards from the Flood deck.
