[The feed's obviously accidental from the start, considering the man it shows has his back to the camera. He's over the other side of the room, looking at the mirror, examining it front and back, smoothing hands down the frame slowly and leaning around to see behind it. After a moment or two, the teneka begins to pick up his thoughts in mid-flow.]

[She'll just be over here laughing at you, old dude.]

[He's incredibly preoccupied with the mirror right now, Eden, he hasn't even considered the strange metal device on the bedside table yet. It's going to take him a while to notice you on the screen there.]

[The evening eats up the sound of it, but as she watches, Eden begins to hum quietly,]

Oliver James washed in the rain no longer. Oliver James washed in the rain no longer...

[It takes him a while to notice, but he does, stopping his examination of the mirror, frowning.]

What's that? Singing?

video/teneka;

[solarpurpura]

Yes, very good.

[beyourshadow]

[The singing was just mildly strange, but an actual voice in his head is even stranger. Female, though it thankfully doesn't sound anything like Morgan (or Igraine). He turns from the mirror, looking around the rest of the room cautiously.]

Who are you? How are you doing this?

video/teneka;

[solarpurpura]

It is the way of things here, the night is for silence.

video/teneka;

[beyourshadow]

[That isn't an answer at all, as far as he's concerned.]

Who are you?

video/teneka;

[solarpurpura]

My name is Eden.

[And she had answered him just fine.]

video/teneka;

[beyourshadow]

Eden. [Though the pronunciation makes him think she means Aodhán.] Did you bring me here?

video/teneka;

[solarpurpura]

No. I awoke, much like yourself, many months ago.

video/teneka;

[beyourshadow]

Many months, and you have yet to be released or killed. What is the purpose of us being brought here? Prisoners, slaves?

video/teneka;

[solarpurpura]

The latter, I suspect. Though perhaps not in a traditional sense.

video/teneka;

[beyourshadow]

[That much was implied by the fact she only suspected, didn't know. A person generally knew when they were a slave.]

In what sense, then?

video/teneka;

[solarpurpura]

They call it the city of dreams.

[She shrugs.]

Perhaps there is something they want from our minds. But, truly, I do not know.

video/teneka;

[beyourshadow]

[Wanting something from their minds, that was worrying. Deeply. And yet she seemed untroubled by it.]

This doesn't concern you.
