Really. Would a warning have been too kind for you, dear deities? A mountain - isn't it a bit too much? Some of us have businesses to run, and such interruptions are not necessarily welcome.

Still, I would like to go see it. I'm sure the view is breathtakingAnd, well, I suppose I owe the deities thanks for bringing my dear friends to the City,

I'm glad you've had so many friends come back, Natalia.

And as annoying as it was that the mountain appeared, it's also pretty neat. I hope it stays.

[imperialwill]

Thank you, Rokuta. Have any of your friends arrived as well?

Yes, despite my initial frustration, I, too, hope that it stays. I wish to take a look around as well.

[kirinofen]

Nah, no one new. I mean, Youko and Shouryuu and Keiki have been here for awhile... Someone did leave, though. And a girl I don't know from the same world appeared recently too.

Me too! I've explored this city up and down already so I was getting bored.

[imperialwill]

How very strange... I suppose there are many people in our respective worlds, so it is impossible to know them all.

You're quite the explorer, aren't you, Rokuta?

[kirinofen]

Yeah, that's true. I mean, my world is made up of twelve whole kingdoms, all really different with thousands of people living in them. So I guess it makes sense I wouldn't know everyone.

Uh-huh! I can never sit still. I love traveling all over the place. It drives the ministers nuts when I wander off for days.

[imperialwill]

My! Twelve? That's quite a lot. I've never known a time in my world with so many kingdoms. How very interesting!

I suppose I understand a little of what you mean.

[kirinofen]

Yup! Each kingdom has a ruler, a king or a queen, and a kirin like me, though some of them are female.

Do you like traveling too?

[imperialwill]

Oh yes. Back home, I travel all the time to visit my people!

[kirinofen]

I see! And that's what'll make you a good ruler someday, Natalia.

[imperialwill]

Thank you, Rokuta.
