[The feed hisses briefly as it comes to life and for a moment all that fills the screen is...well, the ocean above and a soft glow around the edges due to the thing not too far away from the owner of the device. Several seconds pass before these are replaced by the face and shoulders of a certain general. One rather confused and wet General at that ( Read more... )

...I see Lea answered the first inquiry.

This place has a knack for bringing in others from different worlds. The local doctor revealed himself to be the one behind that much.

Indeed.

Might I inquire as to whom you are? As I told the child, my name is Sephiroth.

[private]
I see. Is there any known way of leaving or am I effectively imprisoned here?

[video] I would be surprised if you weren't. limitless_land July 22 2011, 20:54:14 UTC
Riku. Nice to meet you, Sephiroth.

I've left once, but it wasn't by choice and I was brought back three Vatheon-days later.

[Well that answered the question of leaving this 'fishbowl' as the redhead had called it.]

I see. Do you know the reason we've been brought here? [Logic usually dictates there is always a reason for something, no matter how small, idiotic or stupid it is.. there is a reason.]

[It is a very accurate nickname for this place.]

Only rumors. When I first arrived, it was believed to be some sort of experiment as to interactions- what others from different places would bring to the table and what would happen if the environment changed. I've also heard that the city may be dependent on us for some reason or another, thus why everything is for free and the locals so kind.

[He listens silently as Riku speaks, his interest catching on the last bit of it.]

Everything here is given to you freely?

Experiment or no, I will admit I don't trust such generosity which has no clear reason for it. But yes, if we have been drawn here out of their need, that would explain those actions...it leaves me to wonder just what they need from us though.

Yes. [That particular bit of information definitely does catch interest often.]

I don't either, but I also don't mind a free place to rest at night. [A beat.] I think everyone wants to know the reason, aside from those who've come back from the dead and are just grateful to be alive.

[This place just keeps throwing surprises at him it seems.]

This place is capable of bringing the dead back to life?

[He nods faintly.]

And from other times, as far-fetched as it sounds.

Other times...you mean from the past or future? [There's subtle disbelief in the words, but he doesn't deny them. The young man has no reason to lie.]

I see, thank you for the forewarning.

Correct. [He pauses a moment, but knowing what happened that week...]

That said, it's best not to travel at night. The shadows are malicious once the light fades.

I see. Another mysterious trait of the city or does it have something to do with these 'curses' I've been told of?

[video | private] limitless_land July 23 2011, 02:32:01 UTC
I'm not certain. It's been a recent development that my friends and I have tried to find the cause of. However, it's difficult to track the source if you're slain half-way through the investigation.

I imagine it would be.

Obviously this world devalues the meaning of death which occurs here as well as off this world? [He didn't exactly see this as a good thing really, death was final for a reason and flaunting it merely led people to grow callous of those around them over time.]

[He nods. Death... ha. It was almost laughable even back home. Stupid parasitic heart buddies possessions.]

When it comes to the shadows the general time for return is one to three days. But by another's hands... [Sigh. Not such fond memories.] -a week.

I see, thank you for the information. [Hopefully he'll never end up with the need for it or experience it personally.]
