🐸 Portal Activity Update: Visitor Arrives
This morning, a toad-like entity emerged from the stone archway behind Marigold Diner. The arch, in the alley behind Marigold’s Diner;which is now offering the Tapenade at a special toad discount, briefly surged in luminosity before releasing the being onto stable ground. The toad is green with purple patterns on it.
The entity, referred to in official documentation as “Visitor (Toad)”, is currently at large in the greater downtown area. It is reported to be:
Quiet
Watchful
Possibly divine
Not aggressive, but possibly aware of your secrets
The Department of Public Safety has issued the following guidance:
Do not kneel unless explicitly invited
Do not ask its name
Do not attempt to carry, contain, lick or baptize the entity
If you feel an overwhelming sense of recognition or peace, hydrate and return home calmly
Make it stand out
The stone arch remains intact and is no longer glowing.
A cleanup crew will assess the area in the coming days. Any offerings left near the arch should be biodegradable and unsigned.
Thank you for your continued participation in Playfair’s seasonal stabilization period.
Everything is Fine. The toad is welcome.
