No, it wasn't fun. Not even for five minutes. The whole thing was an experience that was even more creepier and weird than learning what the Hand was capable of back in her own world. But apparently that was all par for the course around here. Thankfully, like the plague that most told her about after arriving, there was a cure to the whole 'being invisible' thing. Claire Temple had never in her entire life been so relieved. Now she really felt like she was in some strange sci-fi movie.

When all three of them returned to the village, first and only priority was to gather as many people as they could to share their story. From becoming completely invisible to the odd clues spread out and leading them from one to the next, to the red maple and the pool beneath it, the cavern they swam to get to and finally to the discovery of the pod and the lever that made them visible again.

What the hell did it all mean? Hopefully someone could help them figure that part out.

It's a pirate's life for me

It's a nice day for a walk. Well, no, it's not, really, but he doesn't really have much choice, does he? It's either walk around the village or stay in his house all day. True, that last option may be tempting, especially with the temperature turning cooler, but now that Emma's been gone for what he assumes are months, it's easier to get up and go about his daily routine.

Life goes on, like it always had.

He starts his day out in the usual way, heading to the river to catch some fish for the day, to share with the lunch crowd and some to take home for himself. It's when he's on his way to the inn that he notices a tree he's never noticed before. A tree with the juiciest-looking pears he's ever seen. Which is strange by itself. He doesn't remember seeing pears here before. Still, they're tempting. Very tempting. He's used to the lack of fresh foods when at sea, and the lack of fresh foods here for most of the year. But that doesn't mean he doesn't enjoy fresh foods when he's got them.

He pulls a pear off the tree, and takes a bite, and it's a delicious pear. It's not a typical pear though, which he won't realize until he's inside the inn. He drops the fish in the kitchen and heads into the main room, where he finds some people doing apparently nothing. It doesn't matter much whether they're actually doing something or not; he picked a pear from the wrong tree and they'll be getting a scolding anyway.

"Arrr, ye scurvy dogs! There's work to be done. The lass in the galley needs some assistance, and if someone doesn't swab the deck I'll make you all walk the plank!"

The pirate's not drunk. He just shouldn't have eaten that pear.
