[the voice is soft, hesitant and young. There is a conscious attempt on his part to sound collected, but a level of discomfort still pours through. Time is very obviously flowing in this place, although he can't compare any of its general architecture and locals to anything he's seen before. All the more to make him anxious.

[orhaldi]

...I think it was no fault of yours. Or any of ours. I take it you've just arrived?

[beforethetower]

I did, yes...

[cautiously:] Who are you?

[orhaldi]

Ah-- I beg your pardon. My name is Linna Orhaldi. A music box brought me here as well.

[beforethetower]

[he remains silent, not offering his name in return, instead trying to figure this out. The music box, that feeling that he couldn't pull away from...]

... But how?

[voice]

[soranghae]

You just arrived here too? I, I don't think anyone is able to get home easily. A lady told me that people sometimes disappear but otherwise, I think we're all sort of stuck here for a while.

I'm sorry about that. Still if you need any help, I'll do my best. I'm Mi Ho, by the way.

[beforethetower]

[He's reserved and wary, taking his time to answer.]

Why are we stuck here?

[soranghae]

Why? Hmm, I'm not really sure. I've only been here a few days myself but it seems like there are all sorts of people with all sorts of abilities and powers. I'm not really sure why we're here but it seems to be the music box that brings us here.

[She more than a few degrees oblivious to Helius' quiet reservation, ploughing on ahead with her random thoughts.]

If you don't mind, may I ask your name? I think it makes using this seal thingy easier.

[beforethetower]

The music box? By itself?

[he pauses, hesitant.] ... It's Helius.

[atticprincess]

I don't think you can go back so easily.

[She says it almost as if she's apologizing on behalf of whatever brought them here. Poor kid. :C]

[beforethetower]

How do we go back?

I-- I don't want to stay here. [not by himself.]

[atticprincess]

They told me that nobody knows.

Are you all right? Do you need somebody?

[beforethetower]

--No. [He can't trust anyone here.] I'll be fine.
