As Spring rolls into Summer in Tendaji it appears that something is not as it should be. In fact, strange and unpredictable weather is happening all across the world. Strong storms, bizarre heat waves, unheard of snow storms, floods, and other similar events are happening in all of the countries. Some are superstitious, seeing it as a warning of great evil, others blame the Dretch, some shrug it off as a freaky incident, and others ignore that it's even such an oddity.
However, one thing is certain - all the lands are dealing with these weird weather outbreaks in their own way. How are you handling matters? Do you try to help others, are you too focused on yourself, or do you want to try and find answers for the causes behind these recent events? Or did you get caught out in the disaster yourself and these are your memories of how you had to fight against the odds to get to safety?
Basically this is a solo (or a rp with a friend) to write out how your character is being affected by these strange occurrences in Tendaji.

It usually took a lot to place Jhin in a foul mood. Normally the man would have the patience of a saint, the perseverance of a determined warrior, a heart of gold, and such other similar qualities that one gained while raising a horde of younger cousins who constantly demanded attention and stirred trouble. However, it seemed that the gods were mocking him lately and constantly throwing his path in the way of another. Someone who was the equivalent of all of his cousins in one, if not more so. His teal eyes flickered to the side as he pondered his family and how well the Matori near him could fit into place. If by the gods they did end up getting thrown together more often Jhin made a note never to take her to Sauti with him. He didn't know if he would be able to survive such a meeting - he didn't even know if the tribe could handle it either. It's best to avoid tragedies then.
Speaking of tragedies...the archer sighed as he glanced upwards. It seemed that since they had been separated from their respective groups that the weather was against them. The skies had turned a horrendous shade of gray which were so dark and miserable to the point that one could barely see if there was any linings between the clouds anymore. No sunlight flickered through, just a gray sky of nothingness. At first he hadn't thought much of it but now that it had been pouring rain nonstop for the past two days Jhin was finding himself concerned. His aunt had mentioned once before that there was the rare danger of the river swelling and flooding the areas nearby but Jhin had pushed such worries aside. It never rained that much save for in early spring and by then the people were prepared - many moving their tents and homes uphill or digging trenches and lining them with things to prevent the water from overflowing into the valley.
It definitely was worrisome to see the rains pelting the grounds around them. It was also disorienting because the constant showers and storms made it very hard to track others and Jhin wasn't even certain if they were on the right path anymore. And if they did meet up with the caravan what would he do? Drop Solari off to their mercy? Why had he even taken her away from the scene in the first place? The archer sighed quietly under his breath as he stared more at the rain from beneath the canopy of the giant tree that they had taken a break beneath. Leave it to me to let a pretty face distract me from my duties... But no one else could distract him so, it was always her. His gaze lowered and the man twisted his fingers thoughtfully before shoving the thought quickly away. That was far more trouble than it was worth, "If the rains ever let up we can find the lower paths and get to the nearest village, but at this rate I'm afraid they may be covered in water before we can leave this forest..." He commented out loud without looking at her as he instead opted to stare towards the sky and the offending rains.
