Arrival.

[wields_mrpointy]

This is not what I expected to see when I died.  The people who work here seem somewhat helpful, although it is unnecessary for them to do anything for me.  Reliance on others for anything is a sign of weakness I cannot afford.

This place is called Desai?  The name sounds familiar but I am not sure, perhaps my Watcher mentioned it in training.

Welcome to the city! It is called Desai, and you're not alone in arriving here alive again. I know a few people who've done that, actually!

[wields_mrpointy]

I thank you.

[librariansheart]

You're very welcome! I hope you found a good place to stay... I think there's a way to find places to eat and hotels on the little device that the Agency gives you when you arrive.

[wields_mrpointy]

I will manage.

[librariansheart]

All right! I'm Sheska, by the way. If you need help finding your way around, please let me know!

[wields_mrpointy]

I am Kendra. I think I will be able to manage, but I thank you for the offer.

[librariansheart]

It's good to meet you, Kendra. It's only fair to warn you, this city almost always has something strange going on in it... And this month seems more troubled than any I've yet seen. So be careful out there.

[wields_mrpointy]

I am used to strange. It does not alarm me.

Some of it tends to be pretty deadly, though... Well, just be on your guard, I guess. The police seem to be pretty busy right now keeping up with everything, so you can't depend on them right now.
