[A woman is standing in the middle of the park. She's looking around, very serious, clearly aware that something's wrong. She has one hand on her hip, over her blaster, and with the other hand she's holding a communicator, unaware that it's been switched on.]

This doesn't look like an underdeveloped planet.

Khrista to Diplo. Are you sure we're on

You're in Econtra.

[quarkonium]

I've never heard of this planet before.

[violet_watcher]

I'm not sure if Econtra is really the name of the planet or not, I'll have to ask Dad, Mom or Aunt Sheifa...

I'm June. June Daidouji Sketchit.

[quarkonium]

[Nope, the names don't ring any bells. Maria hasn't told her much, alas.]

I'm Krista Traugottt. Where is the nearest spaceport, June? I need to find a ship and leave for Elicoor II at once.

[It's been a while since Yuuko has been in Econtra... she looks older now, a little less spastic, but still distinguishable as AU!Yuuko]

Did you get lost?

[quarkonium]

[shakes head] We've charted our course for Elicoor II, but an unidentified ship assaulted us just before we reached its orbit. I managed to transport down, but this isn't what I expected this planet to look like.

[hitsuzenklutz]

How very dramatic~! But this is Econtra. No one expects to be here, and yet we all arrive.

[quarkonium]

The Federation has no record of this planet. I'm not surprised, and I honestly would be up for a little exploring, if not for the fact that I have an urgent mission to carry out.

[inmymothersname]

I doubt you'd be able to contact the Diplo from here. And we're certainly not on Elicoor II; I've lived there since I was six, I think I'd recognize the place.

[quarkonium]

Yes, I've been informed that this is a different planet altogether. I've also confirmed loss of contact with the Diplo. Where is the nearest spacesport?

[inmymothersname]

No one knows if there's even a spaceport anywhere on this planet - there's no way to get beyond the walls.

Something they might have neglected to mention? This isn't just a different planet - it's a different universe altogether. According to my parents, who were here before, it's somewhere on an alternate version of Terra.

[quarkonium]

Preposterous.

You're an Elicoorian, you say. Do you know the whereabouts of Fayt Leingod?

[shining_nox]

Ah. You're Khrista? Marcus said you wanted to speak to me.

[quarkonium]

A pleasure to meet you, Duke Nox. I am Khrista Traugottt, ambassador of the Klaus system to the Pangalactic Federation. I was sent on a mission to Elicoor II, but as it has been explained to me by your son, I am stranded indefinitely in this place for the time being. I wish to confirm certain information that has come to the Federation's attention regarding your world, if I may?

[shining_nox]

The pleasure is mine, Ambassador. I'm assuming these facts concern the current war there?

[quarkonium]

Yes, my lord. The Federation is concerned about the rumors that, other than the kingdoms of Airyglyph and Aquaria, a third party has decided to participate in the war bearing weapons and technology far more advanced than anything on the planet. Do you know anything about this?

[Yes, she appears with the same serious look as her mother whenever she goes into serious mode just like this.]
