PLANS
Making contacts and learning more about the drabwurld itself. Aslan will also be making his way around the world map during the summer months and working to reverse the damage left in the Jabberwock's wake.
SUMMARY OF KNOWN DETAILS
During his first year in the drabwurld, Aslan will have traveled across a good portion of the world map, met and interacted with a number of people, and successfully tackled the rot problem left behind in the wake of the Jabberwhelp. He will spend all of June, July, and August trying to revitalize the land, especially the areas around Caer Glaem, the Cothromach, and the Station. He will be sending out a call sometime towards the end of May to ask people to join him in this endeavor. (Map of the Jabberwhelp's path.)
TIMELINE OF EVENTS
| SPRING IN 2,701 (Mar, Apr, May) |
- MARCH - Chatting it up with Waver Velvet! Discussions about Gilgamesh (that hooligan) and Jabberwhelp rot is very likely. Aslan will also meet Saber (Alter) and Rin Tohsaka for the first time later in the month!
- APRIL - A meeting with Aragorn early in the month! Also sayin hi to Diarmuid at the new training grounds at Caer Glaem!
- MAY - Towards the end of the month, Aslan sends out a call for those interested in healing the rot of the Jabberwhelp.
|
| SUMMER IN 2,701 (Jun, Jul, Aug) |
- JUNE - Aslan's journey around the world map begins. Attempts to heal the land of the Jabberwhelp's rot begin in earnest, starting in Caer Glaem.
- JULY - Anti-shardbearer sentiments are acknowledged and ignored. Healing process continues.
- AUGUST - Aslan arrives at the Station in early August. Still working on the rot-affected areas, possible run-in with forest golems on the rampage! Towards the end of the month, he will toe the border of Dorchadas and cross over into Unseelie lands.
|
| FALL IN 2,701 (Sept, Oct, Nov) |
- SEPTEMBER - Healing effort continues. A close call with patrols leads to a handy rescue by Wan, and Aslan's journey around the drabwurld ends. By the middle of September he will be back in Glaschu. Possibly attending the wreath festival in Treun.

She hid it fiercely because to give her name was to give her history, her legend, her strengths and weaknesses. It was ingrained into Servants to guard their true identity. And Saber continued to do so in the Drabwurld because so many knew the Legend of King Arthur. And so, it was an oddity to ever hear her name spoke aloud.
"My lady uses it when there is privacy. You may do the same, Aslan. But before others... please call me Saber."
no subject
Aslan smiles again, albeit gently. There is great power in a name, especially one's True Name. It is a concept he understands well, and so he does not begrudge her that.
The air seems to grow a touch warmer as they walk. Truly, the winter must be nearly over.
After a moment, he poses a soft question-
"These lands, Arturia. What do you make of them?"
no subject
The words that came out of Saber's mouth made her steps pause in surprise for a few seconds. Her brow furrowed in thought and then she nodded.
"Yes... Like me. Caught in a state nothing should ever be in. An anomaly."
Saber was neither alive nor has she actually died yet. She was stuck in the limbo between life and death - a state that no other Heroic Spirit had. They all had died and gone to the Throne of Heroes. Saber had made her pact with Alaya as she lay dying but not yet dead. She never had set foot on the Throne of Heroes and existed outside of the Servant Cycle.
It was why she recalled the Fourth Holy Grail War after she'd been summoned to the Fifth. It was the reason why she did not possess the spirit form the other Servants did.

He knows death and knows what it is to die. He also knows what it is to live again, renewed and whole.
Aslan considers her answer and does not find it amiss.
"The In-Between Places of the World allow for many things that are not possible elsewhere. I have not been here very long to say too much about this one."
But.
"You are yourself, Arturia. I am glad to have met you here, regardless of circumstance."
no subject
Freedom from her past, freedom from her duty, freedom from anything... if she would just take it. But Saber's shackles could not be removed by this world... because she had placed them upon herself. Only she could take them off, and Saber didn't know how to do that.
She was also afraid of what she would become if she freed herself from chivalry and honor and all those things that did nothing but bring her suffering, despair and betrayal. If the Holy Grail did it, Saber would be free and also cease to exist. She need not worry about the monster inside of her, the taint and corruption that whispered atrocious things to her on a constant basis. But here, if she threw those chains off... what would she become?
"Sometimes I wonder if I am myself. I feel like I am, but I know I look at things much differently that I once did. It is enough that others that knew how I used to be think I am broken." False. "That there is something wrong with me because of how I have changed."
no subject
For someone like Saber, however, he can see how a fresh start, a life free from prior obligations, could be a relief in many ways.
She goes on, and Aslan rumbles softly in response. Saber is a curious case.
"Events in our lives may change us. We are who we are, but that does not mean we are incapable of change."
He tilts his head slightly.
"In what ways are you different?"
