Now that she had been on the train for a while and it was clear that she wasn't likely to be leaving anytime soon, Lilith decided that it was time to make her way to the conductor's car, to try to speak with the woman in charge about something very important ( Read more... )

::Opens the door, dressed rather casually, peering out at Lilith::

Hello.

How may I help you?

I need to speak to you about something. It concerns the safety of everyone on this train.

[Lilith's tone is polite, but serious]

... In private would be best, please.

Oh, oh yes.

Come in, please. ::Motions for her to go inside::

Thank you.

[she enters]

... First of all, I should ask you if you were the one who brought us all here.

::Conductor goes over to sit down on her bed, gesturing that Lilith sit in the chair near it::

Why would you like to know this information?

[[ Here is a photograph to use as a reference for Conductor's room. By the way, this is the first time anyone has ever entered it. :D ]]

I'd like to know why we were brought here, and how. It would help explain some things, as well as...

[Lilith's voice trailed off for a moment, then she continued]

As well as prepare me for any damage I might inadvertently cause.

What I am about to tell you is something that very few people know. Can I trust you to keep this information private?

[ooc: whoooo, breaking records! XD]

I always keep everything my passengers tell me private should they request it.

::Nods:: So, yes. Anything you tell me will be confidential.

I am not fully human. I am one of four creatures known as "Crusnik"-- to put it in layman's terms, I am a vampire that feeds on the blood of other vampires, rather than the blood of humans. Normally, the Crusnik in me lies dormant unless I choose to summon it, but it is very much a separate being: if it isn't kept sated with Methuselah-- vampire-- blood, it will try to take over my body, and it will succeed.

... It is a mindless parasite that wants nothing more than death and destruction. If it were to gain control, the results would be catastrophic.

I see.

I can understand your worry.

Originally I had assumed that I had died, but I can now sense the nanomachines within me-- they wouldn't be there if I weren't alive. This is why I'm asking who brought us here, and why.

I understand your concern.

And I have also been aware of it, believe it or not.

How so?

It's something that the other passengers aren't aware of right now. But I suppose you won't be satisfied until I give you an answer, is that correct?

I'm afraid not. My role back on my own world is very important, and if I'm wrong about my death...

Don't worry about that.

I may have a solution that might help you with this...predicament.

I'd like to hear it. I'd also like to hear why I shouldn't worry about my home.
