[The post is slightly muffled, as if the PCD is covered by something]

Huh? What happened? What's all this?

Is this a city? It's certainly not St. Mystere... It's huge! But it looks like it's abandoned...? How did we end up in a shady place like this?

Gee, if it's not one mess, it's another, eh Professor?

...Professor? Flora?

Anyone

Oh! You're looking for Professor Layton? He's here, somewhere, I think...!

[lukemahboy]

Huh?

[Have some rustling as he finds the PCD in his satchel.]

Who is this? You saw the Professor?

[notamageiswear]

Yes, I spoke with him briefly when he arrived here! My name is Negi.

Can I assume that you are Luke? He mentioned looking for a young boy...

[lukemahboy]

Do you know where I can find him? Wait... Do you know how we got here!?

Yes, that's me.

[notamageiswear]

Unfortunately, I don't know where he's staying...but I'm sure if he doesn't see this post, he'll hear that you're here!

It's...quite a long story, actually. This place is the result of a failed experiment of some sort, and...as a result, many different times and places are combined into one.

[lukemahboy]

You're right- He just contacted me on this thing.

Times and places... combined into one? That's impossible!

[notamageiswear]

Oh! That's great!

I-it's not so impossible when the truth is staring you in the face, is it?

[lukemahboy]

But... there has to be a more logical explanation. Right?

[notamageiswear]

No, I'm afraid that's the only explanation...

[lukemahboy]

[Well, now that the Professor has said the same thing...]

I don't understand how something like this could happen.

[notamageiswear]

I'm not sure. They must have really messed things up...but even one small thing going wrong in an experiment can mess everything up, I suppose.

[lukemahboy]

That's true... it must have been one huge experiment.
