{001} [Accidental Voice]

[The recording starts off with a rustling of grass, and then a soft groan.] …Hmngh… Huh? … Wha… W-where… am I? This forest... doesn’t look like the woods near Rasheans… [The sound of someone getting up, and then soft footsteps threading on grass. The voice sounds confused, but moreover so, worried.] …Reid? Are you here, Reid? Reeeeid!

… [A sigh,

It's not a dream. You're in a different dimension, one called Luceti.

[omelets_of_fury]

A... different dimension?

Then, what is this place like? Is there any way of letting my friends know this, so that they don't worry?

[thesun_itburns]

Yeah, it's a lot to wrap your head around.

This place is... mostly forest, locally at least. There's a village nearby, where you're going to want to end up.

And I don't think your friends will worry. Time stops there, while you're here, as far as I've heard.

[omelets_of_fury]

I've traveled between two words before, but it was nothing like this...

I see. So there are others, and there is a town nearby...

[She sighs in relief, too glad to know that her friend will not worry to be thrown off again by the fact that time itself stops here.] That's good to hear... They'll be fine, then. I'll just have to find a way out of this.

...Oh! How rude of me; what's your name, sir? I'm Farah Oersted, from the village of Rasheans.

[thesun_itburns]

Angel.

You gonna be able to find the village okay?

[omelets_of_fury]

Thank you for your help, M. Angel! It's nice to meet you!

2/4

[omelets_of_fury]

Um, I'm not sure, actually... Even if you give me a direction, I don't think that I can tell which way that would be... Reid and Keele usually knew where to go... Is there any landmark or of the sort?

[She looks around and- waitaminute...]

[...How is she talking to this man? She's only managed to calm down now, but she doesn't see anyone...]

4/4

[omelets_of_fury]

!

W-whoa! Where are you? H-how come I can hear you so clearly even if I can't see anyone here? [She sounds much more shocked than scared, though - actually, it was really just shock that she hasn't realized this at all until now.]

Re: 4/4

[thesun_itburns]

[Wow, he was sure she'd figured that part out already.]

Uh... Alright, there's a book somewhere nearby. It's gonna be open, and probably on the ground. We all communicate through those, somehow.

And I don't know where you're at, so I wouldn't be able to give directions. I'd offer to come find you, but I can't exactly-...

If you're still lost by sundown, let me know, alright? I'll be able to come find you then.

[omelets_of_fury]

[She's easily excitable, and while she's not devoid of common sense, she usually has smart friends that figure stuff out for everyone. o/]

A... book? A book... [She shuffles around a bit, since she strayed a bit from where she first woke up at.] Oh! I found it! It looks like a diary... I-it can transmit audio? Keele would love to see this!

Ah, it's alright. You've already told me where I am and what this place is called; you've also ensured me that my friends at home won't worry about me. That's already a lot. I'll try to look around a bit myself, but thank you very much for your help!~

[thesun_itburns]

It was no problem. [He'd totally offer to come help now, but there's that whole combusts-in-the-sunlight issue. =/]

[omelets_of_fury]

I'll let you know if I'm still lost by sundown! [She's seen her share of monsters, but she probably isn't going to give a damn anyway because you're so nice \o/]

[thesun_itburns]

Good. And... be careful. [He's a good monster. :D He 'helps the helpless', as that silly motto goes.]

[omelets_of_fury]

Huh? Are there wild monsters here, too? I haven't seen anything so far... [She helped an 'alien' who was considered evil by the entire continent, so she really doesn't do discrimination, :|b]

[thesun_itburns]

Not monsters, I don't think, but... Sometimes that's not the worst thing out there.
