We can assume that Ivy has been on the island for X time for the sake of people posting. Though we won't stretch this beyond a day or two, in-game. I would like all the islanders to be pretty alien to their new environment, starting off. I would like some kind of word from ERode, so I can get an idea for the direction of his character, and how it will all fall together. Everything is workable, so no stress at all. The main thing, is I want all the first posts to be happy and optimistic. The decay will be gradual. I'll make it clear when things are getting bad.
