By now it's fairly apparent to everyone, I think, that Blodwen Rowlands/the White Rider has a large number of people and beings who are furious with her and the fact of her existence, for any number of reasons. Almost since the moment of her return, but certainly since matters fell out as they did with Coyote, she has been doing her dead-level best to deliberately foster antagonism and discord.
The reason for that, besides her being her own sweet self, is that she's been using this anger, discord, hatred, rage, etc., as a source of power at Milliways in the absence of winter. In addition to that pure and dangerous building power, she ALSO has the glass globe of illusion and seeing from the emerald palace, Raven's blood, Coyote's tomahawk, Tom's word and access to his House, Rilian's dagger, Puck's blood, Havelock's knife, and a few other interesting tricks up her sleeve.
In short, she's succeeded quite well, really. More so than I was expecting, which brings me to this next part.
It'll probably come as no surprise to anyone that I do have an actual resolution to this plot arc lined up for a certain undefined future point, but in the meantime I know that there are a number of people with characters who would dearly like to get a shot at the White Rider -- and for some, it wouldn't be IC for them not to try.
Because of that, it doesn't seem fair for them not to have a chance to do just that.
For those who are interested then, the hunt will be on in the forest outside Milliways and will be running slowtimed from May 29th-June 2nd, for posting on the 2nd. I am sorry to say that I will need to keep her around and functional after that for Certain Future Events, so this isn't the final resolution to this season's arc-- it's more of a chance for characters to make some sort of response if they need to, with a bit of a twist involved that hopefully will be fun for all. And, as you might have seen in other threads, I'm perfectly willing for her to get hurt or something in the process. The risk is real, or should be.
The risk to both sides, that is. :)
If you want your character to be a part, please leave a comment here. More details to come on a filtered post, if there's enough interest to run this all the way through. Thanks!
