1st Ruban - [Voice/English]

[dukealla]

Ah-

[After a few moments, through the sound of stumbling and rustle of fabric, a man's voice can be heard...]

Dearest me. Looks as though I've woken in someone's room...

Rather embarrassing... but I suppose I should- What's this?

...

Oh! This is one of those strange devices, isn't it?

Excuse me. If there happens to be someone who's able to hear me and

[ntjstapwn]

I'm pretty sure none of us have boarding passes.

[dukealla]

How could that be so...? Are we not upon a vessel...?

[ntjstapwn]

Its not your typical cruise ship. We're not here of our own choice, nor can we leave. If anything, the comm is the closest thing we have to boarding passes.

[dukealla]

Hm, I've never been in a world where people are trapped upon a single boat...

If what you're saying is correct, then this device is my boarding pass?

[ntjstapwn]

I don't think this is any of our worlds.

Not exactly, but its something we all get when we show up here. So its closer than anything else.

[dukealla]

You've been most informative, sir.

I've been getting different answers from all these voices and yet yours makes the most sense.

Thank you.

[ntjstapwn]

*Wait...Marco's makes the most sense? Odd, since he wasn't even trying.*

Welcome, I guess.

You'll get used to this place in time.

[dukealla]

I've been hearing nothing but dreadful stories.

How many of them are exaggerations, I wonder...

[ntjstapwn]

Oh, those are true.

[dukealla]

[In a way, he is happy, in another he is upset...]

Which parts? The illusions? The killings?

[ntjstapwn]

I haven't seen any illusions yet, but I've seen the killings and heard about the punishments.

[dukealla]

Oh, one gentleman explained he witnessed hallucinations.

Are "punishments" truely a normal sight in this world?

[ntjstapwn]

I haven't been here long, so I may have missed it. Or I may have been lucky.

They certainly seem to be. If you piss the captain off, he'll do something to punish you. It mostly happens when people kill each other.

[dukealla]

I'm glad I'm not in the business of killing people...

It's a shame those who die do not have a chance to witness the punishment themselves...

[ntjstapwn]

I believe it also goes for people who just attack others.

And we do. The dead come back to life on this ship.

[dukealla]

...

S-Spirits?!

[Just where the heck did he end up this time? A fairytale?]
