Notes so far.
Basics. According to...I guess his name's Mr. Smith? Well, according to him this place is called Discedo, and no one else has any concrete information. I don't even know if that's the proper name for this place.
Previous inhabitants. Obviously this place was populated before. I can't tell yet if they were natural inhabitants...or maybe they're just like us. Brought here involuntarily.
Virus. Apparently called Atropos? Heh. Funny. Stricken down by a goddess of fate...? Apparently it was some sort of plague, but the panda guy said he'd never heard of the symptoms before. Supposedly it killed the citizens a few years ago.
'Sneaky Group'. Gin mentioned them to me, but a few other entries mention them too. Apparently they're the ones behind all of this - why we're here. There are supposedly five...I wonder if anyone knows their names. They've been here the longest, and are possibly natives. They apparently use these communicators as well, but I haven't seen any posts or writings from them yet.
Mr. Smith theorized that they wish to repopulate this place, and rebuild. I guess that means they would be natives. He also mentioned that they use some sort of device to bring people here, which may be theory but...maybe he's not saying something. Some questions come up here though...the first people brought here were brought a few months ago. If everyone else died four years ago, what were these guys doing for so long? Just...constructing a device to bring people here? Why not leave this place? How did they survive, and not the rest? Can they move across continents like Mr. Smith said? Are there other places in this world? And were they subject to the same disease?
Monsters. So far I've encountered the...Gin called them licker dogs. He also mentioned a few others - zombies, heartless, chimeras. The chimeras worry me a little...where did all of these monsters come from? How did chimeras get made here if alchemy and things like that don't work here? Or maybe they've done something to us, and not this place.
Places. The hospital is apparently a bad place to be (gee, thanks for dropping me there, crazy people). The police station and the apartments are safe. People here come from a lot of other worlds, too, that I've never heard of. Have yet to encounter anyone from Xerxes or Ishbal, but Ling is here, so obviously these people have some interest in Xing...
People. There are a lot of fighters, but some aren't. They've even got kids here. Most have their powers suppressed, whether this is because of the place or something else I can't say yet. But Al's alchemy apparently works - maybe he'll be able to tell me something. Speaking of Al and previously mentioned Ling, Nani told me that there are time differences here. By that I mean, I was only with Al a few moments before getting here, but he's apparently been here for months. And Ling seems to be from a previous time period.
Apparently we don't have electricity or anything. But then, how do these devices work? It's not magic, that much is clear. And what about this supposed device the "sneaky group" is using to bring us here?
There are apparently police records, as well as hospital records. Apparently the police records stop before the hospital records. Is there some sort of town hall, or maybe a museum? They might have some more documents worth looking at. Or...a school maybe...
I don't like it. There are too many weird questions this place brings up.
((ooc: tl;dr FOR THE WIIIIIN =D;;;))

First day here and I've already been attacked, insulted, and seen someone possibly go crazy. I've learned a lot so far, though. Made it to the apartments too, possibly by sheer luck.
Does anyone know if there's a map of this town or something like that? And it looks like the soil here's too acidic to grow anything...how do we get food? Is there some kind of store-house or something?

I heard from...the panda guy...that you've been here the longest... Do you mind me asking a few questions?
Also, he said I should ask you if I can see the hospital records he's got. He said they're your copies.
