[Suddenly finding himself in an unfamiliar place such as this, without anyone around, isn’t something Vayne would ever wish for. He wonders for a longer moment. How did he even got here? What happened?  And his friends are nowhere to be seen... But they’re okay, right? Even Sulpher...

But what to do now? Hm... Maybe it would be best to just ask

[Sorry, no familiar faces here, for now anyway. After a little while, Firo decides he's had enough of watching the poor guy get ignored. With the way he's wandering about, he's probably new.]

Hey, you lookin' for somethin'?

[talkstoacat]

[Huh? Oh! Someone talked to him!]

Um, w-well... I'm looking for my friends... but if you could tell me how to get to the Al-Revis Academy...

[immamartillo]

Oh. You must be new.

[He tries to think of a nice way to say this... ]

See, you're not home anymore. And probably won't be for awhile.

[talkstoacat]

I'm... not? But then where am I? What... is this place?

[confused alchemist is confused.]

[immamartillo]

Splendor. It's.... Well, basically it's a city that kidnaps people.

[talkstoacat]

[...a city that kidnaps people...?]

W-what?!

[immamartillo]

Yeah, it's strange. Really strange. And nobody's found a way out yet. Sometimes people leave, though, but it seems random.

[talkstoacat]

But... that means there is a way out... [which is a good thing to know. He'd hate to be stuck in a place with no hope of returning home.

Still... if only Sulpher was here.]

Um Do you know if... it's possible for my friends to also be here?

[immamartillo]

Your friends? They might; I've got some a' my friends here too.

[talkstoacat]

Really? Then maybe... H-have you seen a black cat here... somewhere...?

[immamartillo]

A black cat? I don't think so. There are plenty a' cats here, though. It might be hard lookin' for it.

[talkstoacat]

...I hope Sulpher is okay... [He says it more to himself than to anyone else.]

[immamartillo]

Is Sulpher your cat?

[talkstoacat]

He's not just an ordinary cat. He's... my friend. [pause.] And my Mana. [saying it like you know what it means.]

[immamartillo]

[Maybe having a cat as a friend isn't that weird, but Firo still gapes at him a bit. Then he shrugs, to each his own.]

Uh, right... What's Mana?

[talkstoacat]

[Hey! He takes advices from that cat on almost everything, you know?]

A Mana is a being that helps an alchemist. [...something like that.]
