[VIDEO] rofl DAMMIT, DEAN. ; ;proteusmoonApril 6 2011, 09:58:57 UTC
[ Cecil gasps in shock and drops the magic box, causing the video picture to spin insanely before a loud clatter of plastic on stone is heard and the feed shows a full view of the knight in his dusty, bloodied white and blue armor. He was obviously doing nothing but fighting before arriving here.
The paladin's right hand automatically flies to his hip, fingers searching for the hilt of his sword in order to defend himself from whatever the talking thing is. He's panicking still when it dawns on him... Oh. Right. Sword is gone. So Cecil cautiously approaches the device on the ground, crouching low. ]

[ The paladin's brows nearly disappear under his headband at this. His "god"? The closest thing Cecil acknowledges to a deity is simply referred to as "the Spirit" and everyone on the Blue Planet pretty much honors that or nothing. ]
I see. I am afraid I have not before heard of this place. What shall I call you, then?
[Adapting to the technology takes a while, but Kain has (mostly) gotten the hang of it now. He's surprised to see a familiar face this time when he turns the device on.]
[ Cecil is simultaneously surprised and not to see his best friend's face suddenly appear; he was just with the other man, true, but he can hardly process how this device can be both mirror and window. Surely it must be of Lunarian make. He can't think of any other race he knows of who would be capable of such a thing. Even Cid would probably be puzzled. ]
Kain! You're here also, thank heavens. Did you step inside a strange portal? How do I help you? [ He's not explicit about his ignorance just yet, but he is actually coming to think that perhaps the box he's holding is a prison of some sort. ]
[ A means of communication? Like a letter... a visual, instantly gratifying letter. Suddenly, Cecil feels rather foolish for having though the dragoon was captured after being afflicted with a Mini spell and he is infinitely grateful Kain doesn't seem to have quite caught on to what he was thinking. ]
I can plainly see that we must be. This technology doesn't exist in Baron, or even in any other nation to my knowledge.
Yes, I have been informed. A young man named Dean told me the name of this place. Is something... amiss here, aside from the obvious? [ Come to think of it, he does see an unusual number of... robots roaming the area he's in, taking care of odd jobs. It's strange for him to see them doing things like moving plantlife and furniture, and construction; he's accustomed to their kind attempting to kill him. It makes him a little nervous. ]
[ He's a little surprised at this face; the other seems rather young to him. ] Yes, thank you. My name is Cecil Harvey. Are you another... "guest" in Cydonia?
[ Cecil is simultaneously impressed and flattered by the formality of the you get man when he addresses him by name. The children he's met lately - Rydia, Porom and Palom - all took it upon themselves to simply use his first name. ]
Yes, that's correct. Are people typically brought here in groups? With those they know from home?

after all, with the great NOTHING that happened around here (literally), he needs some entertainment.]
You know, I talk too.

What... are you? Where am I?

This is my world - the City of Cydonia. It does not matter what I am, because I am your God now.
[He is trying so hard to not laugh at this. New people are always fun.]

[But he realizes how strange that must seem, considering he was in the same position not very long ago.]
We're a long way from home in this place.
