... I think I'm lost.

But being lost seems like too simple an explanation for this... New clothes, new town. I thought I was getting pretty familiar with all the major towns...

Finding out where I am isn't important. As important. I need to find Marta

...Huh. More newbies?

Haven't heard of a Marta here.

[knight_of_me]

I see... So she might not even be here...

[braided_icarus]

Far as I'm aware. Might have missed her or something though. Hard to keep track of absolutely everyone here. But, even if she isn't here yet, she could show up.

Probably better that she doesn't though, the way things can get around here.

[knight_of_me]

If it's dangerous I wouldn't want her here.

[braided_icarus]

That's how I was with Winry, but she still showed up.

[knight_of_me]

So it's just completely out of my control...

[braided_icarus]

Mm. We don't really get any say in who does and doesn't show up. Trust me, I'd much rather my father weren't here.

[knight_of_me]

........ And we're completely stuck here?

[braided_icarus]

A few have ended up back home, but here while they were "home" they were "brainwashed", basically. Dunno how much everyone's explained to you already about Mayfield yet. Brainwashing is when we act like the drones, like this really is the best town ever and that there is absolutely nothing wrong with it, that we've always lived here in these "families".

[knight_of_me]

That's creepy.

[braided_icarus]

You think?

[knight_of_me]

...

[braided_icarus]

Well, can always hope she'll stay back home safe from all this, at least. How much has everyone explained to you, newbie?

[knight_of_me]

Um, my name is Emil.

I heard about... The housing and some bad stuff... I think...

[braided_icarus]

Emil, huh? Right. Name's Ed. Edward Elric.

They told you about the drones and brainwashing yet? Or the monthly craziness?

[knight_of_me]

I heard about the drones and brainwashing, but I don't really understand what people mean by this 'monthly' stuff.
