All right, then. I woke up a few days ago--no, I definitely wasn't born, I'm no infant and I'm quite sure no one but a golem ever sprang to life fully-grown and walking about--and my memories are gone.

My first question would be: Who bloody took them, but I'm sure anyone with the ability and inclination to go around stealing people's memories

I'm afraid I do not recognize that emblem, but in the north end of the bazaar there is a stall that makes wonderful salad, if you like cheese.

My name is Animus, and it is a pleasure to meet you.

[fourplusnipples]

The bazaar, eh? All right, I'll give that a try. Thank you.

[monoideist]

I don't recognize the emblem, but as animus said, many foodtypes can be found at the bazaar, including ingredients.

My name is Dyad. Welcome to Edensphere.

[fourplusnipples]

Thank goodness. None of the people near me in the temporary housing seem to want anything besides fried animals to eat.

Dyad. Interesting name.

[monoideist]

I'm sure no one will mind your personal preferences.

Ah.. I suppose so. It seemed to fit. May I ask why you chose Elsa, or is it personal?

[fourplusnipples]

They don't mind, but they do try to persuade me to go out and have a bacon sandwich.

It's just a name that came to mind, and not a bad one. Some of the names here surprise me; they sound more like something you'd call a pet.

[kleptomonkey]

Blame the Tree. It's what the rest of us do.

I'm Dani, by the way! Nice to meetcha!

[fourplusnipples]

I can't see the sense in blaming a plant, no matter how big it is.

[kleptomonkey]

Most plants aren't evil and put you in weird situations or clothing. Or take your memories.

[fourplusnipples]

What makes you think the tree is responsible for it? I haven't seen it do anything but be ridiculously large.

[desig_survivor]

[He thinks of his dream, where he told Mynock that he'd wipe its memory and rename it something heroic, and winces.]

We'd all like to know who to blame for this. Someone called them the Powers That Be. Sounds a little less ridiculous than blaming the tree itself, I suppose.

Haven't seen anything like that, sorry. It looks almost like a medal. Maybe you were military?

As for salad... depends on what you'd call "good". There's that cheesy one at the stall, sure, but there aren't any really bitter or strong-tasting leaves in that one. They sell those at organic food.

I'm Rogue. [and yet again, he checks himself before writing Leader.]

[fourplusnipples]

Military. [pentaps] I don't know about that. I think I'd be rather unsuitable for a soldier. But I suppose it's a possibility.

Thanks for the tip, Rogue. I was starting to think no one here had ever heard of vegetarians.

[desig_survivor]

Maybe you were a scout or something? There's more to being military than soldiering.

There are a few here, it just takes some looking to find anything that caters to them. There was a cart with a portable stove, and the woman pushing it would stir-fry anything you gave her and put it in a bowl of rice; she seemed to be popular with people who can't eat just anything. I haven't seen it or her in a few days now, though. Hopefully she just got a memory crystal or is moving to a permanent stall. [/always mentioning new NPCs]

[fourplusnipples]

I could have been good at scouting, that's true.

That sounds pretty good, too. What's a memory crystal? I could probably make a pretty good guess from the name, but I'd rather just skip to the right answer.

Obvious PING

[stonyfaced]

Welcome to Edensphere, Elsa. I'm Stoneface.

That looks like a copper's badge to me.

I totally didn't plan for that PING

[fourplusnipples]

A copper.

Yes, that would make sense.

You devious scoundrel, you.

[stonyfaced]

Then it's certainly something to take into consideration.

You won't find the badge lying around here, although I understand that people occasionally find things belonging to their past. You never know.

I figured, why wait?

[fourplusnipples]

All I know is I got a good look at it in my dream, and since that's the first thing I can remember, it seemed a good place to start looking. I didn't get here by running. There's always a trail to follow.
