[Merlin wakes up in the forest, face first in the snow. He blinks, groans, and rolls over. It's cold and pretty wet, but it is also a more welcome pillow than horse manure. And, so, it means that he isn't in Camelot's stables. That is troubling ( Read more... )

[Since it's the time of the month when New Feathers were sent in, Soushi responds to things that he would have ignored otherwise] ...Excuse me.

[voice] awaitingalbion January 8 2010, 17:22:57 UTC

[A talking book. Weird. But not too weird.

But...was it talking to him?]

Err, yeah? [He sounds lost. Very much so.]

[voice] koko_ni_iru January 8 2010, 17:26:49 UTC

[Just to make sure,] ...I'm sorry if this seems to be an odd question, but do you know of Luceti?

[voice] awaitingalbion January 8 2010, 17:32:57 UTC

Luceti? Is that one of the other kingdoms?

[voice] koko_ni_iru January 8 2010, 17:38:37 UTC

[Ah. A New Feather then.] ...You'll understand things better if you read this.

[voice] awaitingalbion January 8 2010, 17:44:19 UTC

[He doesn't get far in his reading before he blurts out:] These books. They're enchanted?

[voice] koko_ni_iru January 8 2010, 18:00:53 UTC

Enchanted...? I don't think so. They're more akin to technology.

[voice] awaitingalbion January 8 2010, 18:13:48 UTC

Technology? [Conversations with Gaius flood back to him.] You mean, science?

[voice] koko_ni_iru January 8 2010, 18:18:18 UTC

Yes. [Although frankly, the categorising of the 'virtually indestructable' part as the product of technology is rather doubtful.]

[voice] awaitingalbion January 8 2010, 18:23:48 UTC

Okay. [Science. Hmm. Did that make it better? Or perhaps he was a little sad to learn that there might not be a fantastical enchantment behind these books.] That guide talked about scientists but who's in charge. Who owns this land? A king?

[voice] koko_ni_iru January 8 2010, 18:29:16 UTC

No. Nobody is really in a position of power here. As stated in the guide, we all come from different worlds. There's too much potential for conflict if anyone assumed a position of higher authority.

[voice] awaitingalbion January 8 2010, 18:30:36 UTC

So then, what? Is everyone just...equal?

[voice] koko_ni_iru January 8 2010, 18:38:40 UTC

Mostly. Of course, there are some that are trusted more highly then others, or people who have been here the longest... Those are the people that most residents turn to for advice or leadership. But nobody is the official 'leader', or 'king' as you seem to prefer.

[voice] awaitingalbion January 8 2010, 18:42:32 UTC

That's...[he pauses, before giving his verdict] brilliant. Absolutely brilliant.

Re: [voice] koko_ni_iru January 8 2010, 18:46:44 UTC

...We're just making the best of what we have, and trying to survive.

[voice] awaitingalbion January 8 2010, 19:18:24 UTC

Sounds like the Lower Town to me.
