[The Forge switches on in video mode to show a man peering at it intensely. With a start, he seems to realize that it's transmitting picture, which is not what he wanted. Oh well. His face empties quickly of expression, aware he is being watched.]
All right, so I guess I'm a long way from home, huh?
[an irritated snort, and he continues in a slightly frustrated/sarcastic tone]
What's wrong with everybody here? I try to talk to them, and they either glare at me or ignore me completely.
After two hours of asking people, I know that this place is called 'Anatole' and that there's some kind of evil mist. That's it.
[a bitter laugh]
I'm pretty sure I'm hallucinating, but at this point, I'm just going to go with it.
[he pauses, considering]
...hallucinations have to come from the subconscious, though. This place is totally foreign-- I've never even imagined anything like this. And I'm not the creative type. Me or my subconscious.
And I have a feeling that if this was my subconscious, it would be a lot more fucked up than this...
Probably some sewer crawling with the undead.
[He seems to realize that he's gotten off-track and resumes in a more official tone]
The mist-- is there any official intel on it, or just the rumors of civilians?
[Evidently, he doesn't consider himself one of those.]
Because if there isn't, I'm going to check it out. There has to be a logical explanation for what's going on here, and I'm going to find it.
