Withered [RP]

‘WE’RE WATCHING YOU.’

The posters propped up everywhere, taverns seem dark and strange, crops not having enough to survive.

This is Tenem, a town where everything is under the rule of The Society, the Overseer and Nokram himself. No questions. No arguments. Step out of line, and it’s OFF WITH YOUR HEAD. No warnings. You just have to make sure you aren’t breaking any rules.

It’s still quite cold, moving into the Winter nowadays. People are friendly but not too friendly, with risk of suspicion. In this place, it’s best to become good friends with people, or they may kill you.

RULES.

1. No one questions the Overseer.
2. Any Society members MUST be treated with respect.
3. An offering must be given every day.
4. Thoughts are worthless.
5. Do not attempt to do anything against the rules. We are watching.
6. Meetings must be attended to.
7. No one is allowed to leave.
8. You must give in to the Overseer.
9. Killing is legal. This doesn’t apply to Society members. Killing Society members will cause in instant termination.
10. No one can interrupt the Overseer’s office.

(frisk wakes up)

wait what counts as a society member?

*Brob tends to his farm and gives up a portion of his crops to the overseer. He won't have as much to sell now. He realizes this can't go on.

*A nearby tavern seems to be doing good at this moment. There’s lots of chatter in there, and there are lights coming from it. Quite rich, since electricity is quite expensive.*

*Goes to tavern to sell veggies*

*recieves a few meager coins*

"That should last me a day or two..."

*The Tavernkeeper watches you.*

‘Hey you! Yes you! Buy drink! Drink!’

*Holding up a bottle.*

*Knows I don't have money to spend, but since the tavern keeper is one of my only clients, I buy a small drink*

"Man, its been rough lately. Its been harder to make money..."
