[ The forge comes on as it's dropped to the ground, bouncing a few times before it finally settles. Anyone familiar with the flooded section of the ruins should be able to tell where Kahlan is, even though the forge is currently upside down. A brown boot steps into view for a moment and then turns as Kahlan looks around. ]

[Cara?]

[CARA?]

[Someone...who knows he--hold on, it could be a different Cara. Not likely, but...it could be. Better find out.]

...Hey! Hey, that Forge. Uh, the device! Pick it up, you're gonna need that, trust me!

[Oh, way to be formal, Kunsel.]

[ She's already got it in her hand but the sound of someone else's voice, especially so close, causes Kahlan to freeze. She looks all around her, searching for the source of the voice, though he won't be able to see that. ]

Who's there? [ A beat and then, ] Show yourself!

[Video] knows_it_all September 13 2011, 02:31:29 UTC

The Forge! [...] The device, the box thing, the...thing with the screen and, hey! Look down here!

[He's not usually this excited, honest.]

[And for what it's worth, he's trying to stop yammering, but it's hard.]

The thing you're holding, it's called a Forge. It's...like a two-way mirror you can talk through. Technology forged, not magic, so don't be afraid of it, it won't hurt you...unless, I don't know. You drop it on your foot or something. Which I wouldn't recommend doing, because ow.

Oh! I'm Kunsel by the way! And...I think I might know Cara. Or, I knew her...unless she returned with you? If it's even the same Cara I'm thinking about.

[ Kahlan lifts the Forge up but it's backwards for a few moments, showing a view of the ruins before she flips it over. And then it's upside down. ] A two-way-- [ But he continues talking, so she carefully turns it right side up.

It's pretty obvious that she has questions about the Forge, judging solely on the way her eyebrows pull together, but then he mentions Cara and it looks like everything but that is forgotten. ] She stands about as tall as I do, has light colored hair, wears red leathers?

A dangerous place to get lost in, those ruins.

[Staring at her through the Forge is a man with golden eyes, silver hair, and a smile as bright as the reflection of the sun off ice crystals...]

You must be new. How unfortunate.

[Video] GO GO GO GO maythespirits September 13 2011, 03:20:42 UTC

So I've heard.

[ She eyes him for a moment, now that she's got her Forge figured out enough to actually talk to someone, and then gives him a small smile in return. ]

It certainly isn't what I had planned for today.

You'll adjust quickly enough, I'm sure. It isn't as though we're given much of a choice.

[A shallow nod of his head, a bow of sorts.]

Perhaps it is only a small consolation, but there are many things you might enjoy here, the possibility of meeting a familiar face or two among them.

[Video] \o/ maythespirits September 13 2011, 04:13:16 UTC

I'd rather not be here long enough to adjust. There are more important things I need to do back home; I can't just stay here and make friends as if I have no other care in the world.

...Cara?

I... recognize the name. But I don't think she's been here for a very long time.

[...]

Oh! Assuming it's the same Cara! It could be any Cara, I'm sure there's more than one.

maythespirits September 13 2011, 14:30:40 UTC

Judging by the others' responses, it's safe to say that you're thinking of the correct one. [ And Kahlan's surprised by how many people knew her, especially since none of them really seem to be reacting negatively. ]

yetsleeping September 14 2011, 09:28:49 UTC

A blond with a rod?

I barely knew her, to be honest, but I knew of her from mutual friends. You... must be from her world, then.

maythespirits September 14 2011, 21:55:43 UTC

...an Agiel, yes.

[ She nods slightly. ] I was just with her a moment ago, before I woke up in that... room.

I don't think you're going to find who you're looking for out there.

[Unless you go crazy and hallucinate. Which would be bad.]

Magician?

video maythespirits September 13 2011, 14:33:53 UTC

It seems she's no longer here at all. [ Kahlan's still trying to wrap her head around that one.

She nods slightly. ] We were celebrating a friend's birthday and a magician requested that Cara and I be part of the show. I assumed it was him who sent me here.

video firebornfidelis September 13 2011, 06:03:06 UTC

You know a Cara?

[Yup, that girl was pretty infamous.]

Is she a blonde woman with painful little handweapons?

video maythespirits September 13 2011, 14:36:53 UTC

The Agiels. Yes. How did you know her?

video firebornfidelis September 13 2011, 21:02:40 UTC

She was here for some time. She was a...

[Friend? Not exactly. Acquaintance? No, more than that.]

She was a great help to me. I owe her a lot. But she's been gone for some time, I'm sorry to say.

Also sorry to say you're in Anatole now, with no way out. But I suppose you've been told that, too.

video maythespirits September 14 2011, 21:55:46 UTC

I have been told both. You could, however, tell me how it's possible that Cara and I were both put into similar magician's boxes and only I ended up here. If you have any idea, that is.
