First Song: This is not where I fell asleep last night.

[bard_of_orlais]

[Leliana wakes up in an unfamiliar bed wearing strange nightclothes. She sits up and looks around, recognizing exactly nothing that is in the room with her. Sun shines in from the window and a few birds are singing outside, but those two things seem to be the only things that tie back to any sort of reality that she's familiar with

[suddenly, a crash in the kitchen]

[lasersallover]

They can blow up things?

[bard_of_orlais]

They can be possessed by demons who wish to escape the Fade!

Did no one warn you of these things? [Leliana is giving the girl the benefit of the doubt here. She's still a teenager, so it's possible that she's just ignorant and not a full-on apostate.]

[lasersallover]

I'm a youkai hunter so that'll never happen!

[bard_of_orlais]

....

And what is a youkai? I've never heard of them in any of my time in Thedas...

[So confused.]

[lasersallover]

They're kind of like demons but not. Most demon are youkai but not all youkai are demons!

[bard_of_orlais]

...

You're not from Thedas at all, are you? [This is all very unfamiliar theology to her.] Unless there's some strange, secret facet of the Chantry that deals with what you do?

[lasersallover]

Never heard of that place at all.

[bard_of_orlais]

[Well, that confirms that.]

Where are you from, then?

[lasersallover]

Gensokyo.

[bard_of_orlais]

Gensokyo. What a strange name for a place...

What sort of world is this home of yours? Obviously an exciting one, if what you say is true.

[lasersallover]

Mmm, if you translate the name, it means "Land of Fantasy" so you can make your own guesses!

[bard_of_orlais]

[That was a better answer than Leliana could have hoped for. Already, her mind is going through the possibilities.] I will have to write down my ideas of what it could be like, then. And then you can tell me how correct I am?

[Please?]

[lasersallover]

Alright!

[bard_of_orlais]

All right!

I will leave you to finish looking for that artifact of yours, then.

[lasersallover]

H-Hey! I've found one before! It was the legendary sword Excalibur!
