[ Marcoh also goes to class. He doesn't have any cool shit to do, he just does his work but he's also going over his notes then? Entering his mind palace to review everything he's collected about the king so far and the significance of the ley lines, and anything he's gathered about how life and death works on said lines. ]
[ you look through your notes and you enter your mind palace of what you think is relevant.
Glyndŵr (Glendower) was the son of Gruffudd Fychan II and Elen ferch Tomas ap Llywellyn. On September 16, 1400, Glendower instigated the Welsh Revolt against the rule of King Henry IV of England. Although it was initially successful and rapidly gained control of large areas of Wales, the uprising suffered from key weaknesses, particularly a lack of artillery and of ships. The lack of artillery made capturing defended fortresses difficult, while the lack of ships made rebel-controlled coastlands vulnerable. The uprising was eventually suppressed by the superior resources of the English.
Glendower was driven from his last strongholds in 1409, but he avoided capture. The last documented sighting of him was in 1412. Twice he ignored offers of a pardon, and despite the large rewards offered Glendower was never betrayed to the English. His death was recorded by a former follower in the year 1415. With his death, Glendower acquired a mythical status as a folk hero awaiting the call to return and liberate his people.
In the late 19th century, Glendower's reputation was revived by the Cymru Fydd, or Young Wales, movement. They recreated him as the father of Welsh nationalism. Folk memory in Wales has always held him in high regard and almost every parish has some landmark or story about Glendower.
Glendower was a powerful king. He had controlled the weather with his words and spoken to birds. There were rumors of his power of invisibility, the impossible victories against larger armies, and, finally, his mysterious escape.
You do not believe he is dead. You believe he's asleep, and you believe he is somewhere underground, though the exact coordinates currently escape you.
You've recently learned about ley lines, magical roads of energy that are powerful things and likely where his tomb resides. The center of the ley lines in this town reside in Cabeswater, and you're not entirely sure how death and life works at this specific moment in time. You simply know that once upon a time, a sacrifice was needed to awaken the ley lines, to try and find the king. Someone years ago attempted to sacrifice Yves, but the ritual failed. Jiaoqiu offered himself in sacrifice recently to prevent the same thing from happening. You know that someone died on the ley line when they shouldn't have, and you lived when you shouldn't have, and you think to find Glendower will give you those answers.
You also believe you have enough gadgets and gizmos you could reasonably try to find the energy reading, but so far you're still searching for the specific coordinates. ]
[ Is there further/personal reason for me to believe Glendower is alive and has these powers, or is it just me being a bit of a tinfoil hatter?
Scien you little shit.
Do I know anything about this person that died on the ley line when they should not have? Presumably he has been looking into this as well right, since it's quite significant to him.
Where's all my gadgets and gizmos, are they in the gay warehouse we all live in. ]
[ it is you being a tinfoil hatter, but you also have put in so much research and have so much hope that you're going to find this king. you've been studying this for the last seven-ish years, and you have found your way to this town because of the ley lines specifically.
it's really just because some disembodied voice said that glendower would let you live, and you want to find the king yourself.
you know that yves died on the ley line because he was murdered, but it is difficult for you to fully decipher if the two things are connected yet. you have suspicions, but you aren't sure what to do with that information.
you do know that scien wrongfully killed yves though, and has since been killed himself. so sad...
your gadgets are in your gay warehouse where you live. perhaps you should rendezvous there with your friends once you meet up after school? ]
[ Oh yes the voice. I moved here specifically because of the proximity to Glendower then.
Were there any news about a person that abruptly died without warning, if any of them seem especially suspicious and related to the ley lines? When Marcoh originally died, was it also in some kind of woods?
He reviews his notes and finishes up his classes all normal-like. He'll wait outside the school like he said, unknowing that the other gays are Going Through It. ]
[ that is correct, you moved here because the search for glendower brought you here.
there was no news about anyone abruptly dying, though you did report yves' belated murder to the police once you found his bones. his family had a proper funeral for him, and you later dug up the bones to rebury him on the corpse road to give him energy.
when you died as a child, you were not in the woods. you were outside of someone's home, playing in the backyard. you happened to fall upon a hornet's nest. they stung you to death, and you died alone. at the same time, another died elsewhere.
enjoy waiting outside for your friends? maybe yves will come back. ]
How did I know the corpse road would give him energy? Or is that like whatever.
He's going to look at his nice watch because nerd Marcoh has money and accessorises a bit. Where the hell is the rest of the Ghostbusters. How late is it. ]
[ you guys did in fact call a random psychic a few months ago because you thought you caught a glimpse of something on the ley line. it led you to the psychic's daughter, who has helped you on this quest because she bullied her way into it.
i will let you all rendezvous whenever siffrin feels like getting off the roof. who knows where yves is... ]
When 3 hits he's actually going to call Siffrin on their cell phone, it's after-school hours so the teachers can't get him. He'd call Jiaoqiu's too if he had one, can we get him one. Paging Dr. Beat... Emergency! ]

you knew because the daughter of a psychic told you. it was her idea to move him, because no one would disturb his bones and it was holy ground.
it's starting to be on the verge of 3pm. definitely close to after school time. ]
