I can hear you.

A war...

You wouldn't happen to be a samurai, would you?

Perhaps, it depends on your reason for asking.

You wouldn't be the only one.

I am not one of them, however.

Then suppose there are other samurais present here?

Then I'd hope they were on the same side as you.

Though the ones I've spoke to seem harmless enough.

Do you know anyone by the name of Hayashida Heihachi? The other one is noisy... Kikuchiyo.

[-Silent for a brief moment...-]

...Y.es, I do or rather I did.

The names you speak of are names of fallen comrades.

Not in this life. ...You'll soon find that a lot about this city doesn't make sense.

Still, it's good to know that you are their comrades. I heard briefly about a war that Hayashida-san was involved in, but none of the specifics. I've helped him look after a child name Komachi.

Komachi is here as well?

Hn. You are right, none of this makes any sense.

I hear that we have been taken to this world against our will but I did not suspect there would be children among these ruins.
The scientists pick and choose their lab rats without any concern...?

It seems that way.

...But I am no one's lab rat.

[He is quiet for a moment.] ...What is your name? You may call me Haruka.

Nor am I.

Shimada Kambei. It is good to meet your acquaintance, Haruka.

How long have you been here in this city?

Reply

[Voice; Japanese] onikui_haruka November 10 2008, 22:23:26 UTC
A little more than a month. ...and it still leaves me with more questions than answers.

Shimada-san, there is something that I have learned from being stuck here that might help you. If anyone runs into death here, then they are revived by the scientists.

If anyone is responsible for the reason your comrades are alive, it's them.

...I see.

I thank you, Haruka. You sparred me from asking any more questions...

I suspect there is no way out from this city judging by how many inhabitant this Discedo.

It's nothing that I have to be thanked for.

If there is, then I still have yet to find it.

Then I suppose we must remain hopeful that such ill fortune shall not stay with us for good.
