[The handwriting that suddenly appears is very sloppy, but still somewhat readable. It's a combination of being drugged, having messy handwriting in the first place, and having a cast on his arm to have to work around.]I don't really remember what happened, so I'll try to write what I can here

[A-Ah, he dropped the journal...! Well, threw it.]
Luke, can you hear me?

[... Wait. There's no one there.
What.]
This isn't funny, dammit! Come out already!

If you pick it up, you should be able to see me.

But then he stops, and he holds up both hands while glancing at the trees.]
No, I don't think so! How do I know you're not going to jump out and knock me out or something? I'm in Malkuth, aren't I? You're just going to try and kidnap me again!
[He can't help being overly suspicious. He's all alone, and he's never been anywhere without the assurance that someone was around the corner.]

This isn't Malkuth or Kimlasca. I'd be more than happy to explain, but it's a little difficult to have a conversation when I have to shout so you can hear me.

But it doesn't take too long for Luke to turn the book over and narrow his eyes down at the little picture of Ion. He hadn't seen that before... Maybe he was telling the truth after all.
Luke's too busy feeling just a little scared to really care about that, though. Not that he'd admit it.]
If I'm not in Malkuth or Kimlasca, then where the hell am I?

You're near a village called Luceti. Do you see a river nearby? It should help you find your way here.

[But his slight wonderment is cut short by the sound of rumbling in the sky. Ooooh, no! First he's lost, now it's going to rain on him!]
Look, hurry up, so what do I do when I find this river of yours?

[He shoots a glance out the window.] ...and maybe bring you something to wear in case it starts to rain.

[... Wait a second.]
And didn't you say my name earlier?
Reply
[...at the very least, he can use that to his advantage.]
That's right, I never had the chance to introduce myself. I'm Ion, Fon Master of the Order of Lorelei. I'm an acquaintance of your instructor, Van. [A smile.] I've heard him mention your name before and figured it was you when you mentioned him in your writing.

Any hint of irritation seems to melt away when he hears about Van.]
Master Van? Is he here? Did he come looking for me?
