Fifty-Three Kings Slain (Voice)

[captain_basch]

[This is a confused and not quite sure what the heck is going on Basch, just waking up in Latimir in the shared apartment with Balthier and Ashe. He'd woken up to having an arm around his waist, and for a moment wondered who had let the women into the barracks... they hadn't had a celebration lately... was it a trick by Vossler? Until he realized

[He's woken slowly. Somebody was up late last night.]

Nnngh... what is it now? Are we under attack? Reavers again? Where's my gun?

[captain_basch]

[Sitting on his knees on the bed looking super confused, about everything right now.]

Ashelia, where is she.

[He's trying to stay calm, voice more a little demanding than frantic as he asks Balthier again.]

We were on the Sandsea, we were heading to Raithwall's Tomb. This is some magicks or dream, this is not Ivalice!

[His brain is already breaking a little at this whole situation.]

[clean_cuffs]

[Gods, it's too early in the morning for Discedo to go crazy again. Rubbing his eyes, he sits up in bed and tugs on his cotton shirt.]

Ashe is asleep in her room. What is this Basch? Has this place driven you mad already?

[captain_basch]

[He felt a bit of relief knowing Ashelia was okay. He had no reason to not trust Balthier... even if he barely knew him. He'd check on her when he'd found out more from the pirate.]

I know not this place, so how could it drive me to madness? This is not some illusion?

[clean_cuffs]

[He blinked, and then flopped face down in a pillow making a noise of deep exasperation]

Basch, what is the last thing you remember?

[captain_basch]

... we were traversing the Nam-Yensa and making our way to King Raithwall's Tomb. In fact... we were just entering it.

[Wonders if that was a dream. Or if this is. Or they both are? He feels bad that Balthier seems very annoyed by all of this, if not frustrated.]

[clean_cuffs]

So your memories are what they were from your initial arrival...

[Another sigh, this one a little more downcast but Balthier sits up at last,bright eyed and bushy tailed.]

This isn't a dream Basch. Or in any way imagined. We've been dragged into another world.

[captain_basch]

[His brows quirk a little, confused more so than before.]

Excuse me?

[He looks a bit skeptical, but he can't deny, even just a peek out the window. This place doesn't look like Ivalice at all.]

How did this come about?

[clean_cuffs]

A long story, and no one's clear on the specifics.

[But he launches into an explanation about people from different worlds, different times anyway, half hoping that'll jog his memory]

[captain_basch]

[Listens carefully, finding it all to be quite the big fairy tail... but it's obvious there is truth to it.]

... forgive me if this is all difficult to take in, but... thank you for explaining all of it.

How long have we all been here?

[clean_cuffs]

...I've been over year. Not to mention I was brought here a little over a year into your future.

[He tosses Basch his communicator.] Take a look through that. It'll give you an idea as to what's going on.
