1: Lost

[soopiefan]

Oh, my. I seem to have gotten myself terribly lost. The capitol is a lot bigger than I first thought. This castle doesn't look like the one at the capitol, so I'm sure it'll be okay if I go and ask someone for directions. I just hope Shannon and Pacifica aren't getting into too much trouble

These journals really are curious things. I have been told that they are magickal, but I still do not understand how they work or which purpose they serve. Still, we can use them to communicate with each other and whatever reason this... place might have for giving them to us, they are useful.

Speaking of this place: From what I could gather, it is called "Paradisa" and someone or something brought us here. By 'us' I mean anyone I have met so far: People from different worlds. I am still trying to understand what all of that means - I only woke up in one of the rooms a few hours ago - but if there is anything I can do to help you, please let me know.

[soopiefan]

Yes, this journal certainly is magical. I could feel it when I picked it up. And what lovely handwriting you have, too!

Paradisa..? I've never heard of that place! Thank you for all of the information.

[child_emperor]

Thank you. It is strangely comforting to know that I can rely on what I have learned in my calligraphy lessons - even in a place like this.

I have never heard of Paradisa either, nor have I ever seen it on any map. I think this would really interest the scholars back home who liked to think they know all there is to know about Ivalice... or that Ivalice itself is all there is, but that is a concept I can't fully understand myself.

[soopiefan]

Oh, so you must be from an upper-class family!

I'm afraid I've never heard of Ivalice, either. But I suppose being in a foreign place is a good thing in my circumstances. It means I'll finally get a break from traveling!

Oh. I'm being rude. I haven't introduced myself yet! My name is Raquel Casull. What's yours?

[presentness]

Shannon?

.. he doesn't act like an old man, does he?

[soopiefan]

So you know him! That's wonderful! I'm glad he's here too.

[presentness]

Yeah. He said me calling him an old man sounded familiar.

So, uh.. who're you?

[soopiefan]

[transcribed laughter]

Yes, Pacifica is fond of calling him that.

My name is Raquel. I'm Shannon's sister.
