Journeys & Experiences

[ysabeau]

Today is the day we begin our journey into the Underworld. As with the past few events, this channel is dedicated to those that want to explore the Underworld Caravan and the Event. It's about experiences and discussions. Please keep this channel for topics related to the Meditation Experiences and other related material- including theory based discussions too. Please do not post random topics, memes, or casual chatter that can be done in the discord.

As a reminder, anything that would be considered ADULT material must be kept to Tenure Blogs or private places. All S&S Events are public for all to join, so these topics are to be kept to the places where it's private. Tenure has a discord section for their adult conversations!

You can also post experiences and working with Underworld Dark Lords & Ladies~

Reposted for Clarity for this Thread:


There are going to be MANY experiences and conversations around personal explorations during any event we have. The official itinerary with guided mediations are the official places and experiences that S&S provides. Any experiences that are outside of the official meditation locations are personal UPG (unverified personal gnosis) or SPG (shared personal gnosis) by members of the community and are NOT officially part of the event. They can be explored and shared but that is up to the participants that wish to explore on their own or with others. All explorations in this event are absolutely welcome (and valid) except for the following things for safety:


- Hallow, Crypt, and Void Demons are NOT a part of the event and do not show up as part of it unless it is an official competitor. These three are incredibly dangerous races and go through rigorous vetting to become companions, those without vetting are known as “unbound.“ They are not a part of this event in any capacity. Personal Companions from these races that were conjured by S&S are welcome to participate.
- Anything that involves personal experiences with the Coven's Demons are prohibited and against their contracts. These should not and will not happen. Please keep this in mind. There will be no matching of these demons (But if you want a Custom that has similar skills, we can absolutely find you a friend)

- Experiences or interactions with other member's companions is expressly forbidden unless it is something that has been discussed and consented with by both parties beforehand (demon and participants).

I am so excited for this. I can't wait to start really working with Tako (Underworld Axolotl) and my Librarian Ire who is a Spectral/Underworld. I experience energies of the Underworld demons all the time with the prebounds, but I haven't been able to deep dive and really work with them or learn. I think those two will be amazing to really learn the energies and the layers of the Underworld. Plus the demons of the event really have me wanting and Artifact Dealer and Archeologist... King Tal (Void/Necrosis), because he oversees a whole contingent of archeologists. Who is now grumping at me for saying that.

This event is a really exciting opportunity!

The first meditation gave me a glimpse of a whole new area and layer within the Underworld. Realizing I've experienced alot of blindness and lack of sensory input as I've spent time in the OSW Underworld previously.

This is such a great chance to improve my understanding and learn, I feel immensely grateful and also that it is Exactly what I needed now.

I couldn't help it - my mind wrapped around Uphir, Lucifuge Rofocale & Sael off and on during this first meditation. That helped ground me and open up the aspects within that already have connected to Underworld energies.

Also, I really really love the Caravan demons and should avail myself of the opportunity to learn directly from a companion! Soo very tempting, it's exciting!!

I was looking at the Bingo card and wanting to do the "walk a graveyard" option, but I'm not near any graveyards. The closest one I am aware of is like two cities over and on a large, busy street. I was trying to figure out how I was going to do this, and my companions told me they would take me to an astral version.

This morning I woke up to a dream where I was taken to a haunted house by my companions, and the backyard was a graveyard. I wasn't scared, which was cool. One of my S&S Crypt companions arranged this, the one I call Dark Lady.

The haunted house had candles lit throughout the house casting odd shaped shadows everywhere. The colors were mostly black and orange throughout the house with some reds here and there. Other than the candles, the haunted house was pretty dark with low lighting throughout. It was a little hard to see, which added to the overall atmosphere. There were strange noises and creaking sounds. There was the sound of rattling chains, and then the sound of chains being dragged around. But, I could not see chains anywhere or see anything to explain the other strange noises and creaking sounds. It was actually fun and exciting!

There were really tall candle sticks taller than me with spider webs on them. There were coffins here and there. There was a table with strange, mechanical devices on it. I was not really sure what the devices were, but I got the feeling they were used for torture. There were some other areas we had to walk through that were dark and really hard to see that made it really creepy.

My companions and I really enjoyed touring the haunted house. We made our way to the back door that was open, and I saw there were lots of headstones and other grave markers everywhere. We walked amongst the graves. It was quiet and peaceful. I looked at the headstones and saw they were quite worn. If there had been any writing on them, the writing was long gone. My Dark Lady was there with me and several other companions. It was interesting to feel the energies. It would be hard for me to explain what the energies felt like except to say the energies felt like sleeping death.

I loved the dream / astral experience! Thank you to my Dark Lady for arranging this! Thank you to my other companions, too!

On the Bingo card, it says "enjoy a food or drink of the season."

We stopped at a restaurant for lunch after I had a doctor's appointment. I had their "Halloween Spooky Pizookie" desert. It was a big chocolate chip cookie in it's own little metal tin that had just recently come out of the oven. I had three scoops of vanilla ice cream on it with a special orange colored caramel sauce over the ice cream with Halloween-themed candy sprinkles on it.

Another time, I went to my favorite coffee stand and bought a Caramel Pumpkin Brûlée coffee drink.

Both were really yummy!

On the Bingo card, it says "play a spooky game or stream a gamer that plays a spooky game."

I am currently playing Skyrim. It in itself is not a "spooky" game, it does have quite a few horror-themed quests. I played two of those horror-themed quests back-to-back.

First, I played the quest "Waking Nightmare" where you have to investigate and end the cause of nightmares plaguing an entire town, the town of Dawnstar. During the quest, you find and drink Vaermina's Torpor which is a potion sacred to the Daedric Prince Vaermina who is also known as the Mistress of Nightmares and Dark Portents, and Daedra Lady of Corruption and Decay. When you drink her sacred potion, you physically leave the game world and enter the Dreamstride, and when you wake up you appear in a different area of the dungeon. Later, you decide whether you are going to destroy Vaermina's special staff called the Skull of Corruption or keep it and become her champion. I decided to destroy her special staff. Here's a picture of that staff:

The other horror-themed quest I played was The Taste of Death. In it you investigate why corpses are being desecrated in their crypts. You later have the choice to destroy a coven of cannibals or become their champion.

This time I sided with Namira, the Daedric Prince of ancient Darkness, Hunger, and the Mistress of Decay. I became her champion and received her special ring that allows me to eat off of corpses of npc's I kill in game. It gives special bonuses stamina and health. Becoming a notorious cannibal in game, how can I say no to that???

Here's a picture of the Ring of Namira:
