[This morning, Yuan awoke to find that the body swap with Mithos had been undone. In fact, the body swap with Mithos is the last thing he remembers of Luceti before over two years' worth of memories from home follow it up. It seems like he must've been home, even if this recent experiment is to blame. Similarly to when he was an old man, he's been ( Read more... )

Yes, I'm fine. I was simply... lost in thought for a moment. Is there still an experiment affecting the village?

Hm... I see. How are you faring?

I've been better.

But it's nothing serious.

It's...taken a toll, yes. But I can manage.

How have you been, Yuan? Is everything all right?

... I suppose so. Though I suddenly find myself with two more years' worth of memories from home. It's as if I was actually there, even though no time has passed here.

You're...not the only one I've spoken with to experience such a feeling. Although, in Xion's case, she had actually been here for the intervening ten years.

This world wasn't meant to be afterlife. There's no telling how our presence here may affect our own worlds, even for those whose time back home has already passed.
