-Red eyes blink at the newly formed mirror, full of wonder. Seems a new girl has arrived. And this one seems a bit unusual. Or at least less usual than usual. The dichromatic wings may have something to do with it. One a near white shade of aqua, the other a dark and deep green. And a tail can be seen poking up as well, decorated with a small

The Vine is indeed fascinating. It is a plant with some intelligence. It is also the primary means of communication here, as it grows throughout the Gardens. It can transmit video, audio, and text.

[Slightly distracted by discussing the Vine, Sephiroth introduces herself belatedly. She is curious about the newcomer, but her expression is neutral.] I am Sephiroth, of SOLDIER.

[heteropennae]

I see... So you are a soldier?

[no_hometown]

[She nods.] I am. The organization SOLDIER is a branch of Shinra, Inc's armed forces.

[heteropennae]

... Forgive me, but I'm a bit confused. What is Shinra?

[no_hometown]

Your confusion is understandable. Allow me to explain. We've all been brought here from various worlds by our captor, a powerful entity of unknown origins who calls herself the Queen of Hearts. You are no longer anywhere near your home, and there is no known way to return.

Shinra is the company I am affiliated with. As a member of SOLDIER, it is my duty to protect the populace and maintain the peace. I would be happy to answer any questions you might have.

I see! So this is not Earth? I suppose I should count myself lucky that a person like yourself is here, if you are truly a protector.

[no_hometown]

No, this isn't Earth, though I've met people here from that planet. This place is simply called the Gardens, and it is a small, strange world of its own.

I do what I can to assist those who need my help here. Fortunately, we have not been subjected to many physical dangers.

[heteropennae]

That's definitely good to know... I'm not much use outside of domestic duties.

[no_hometown]

You need not worry. There are others here in the same situation.

From where you're standing, you might be able to see the towers of a fortress. If there is any danger, you can make your way there. It was built as a safe place for the defenseless.

[heteropennae]

I will keep that in mind...
