Mao's Battlebook: Entry 001 [voice/action]

[disasterroar]

[Mao is currently standing outside of the city hall, looking slightly confused. What is this place? How did he get here? ...He remembers founding a music box, but that’s it.

Not to mention, that this place is just weird. There’s no Gajumas around and it doesn’t even look like any city Mao has ever seen in Karegia.

But if it’s not Karegia, then where

[he's been greeting a lot of people on their arrivals lately, and the usual YOU'RE IN SPLENDOR message is getting boring fast. Clearly this means it's best to spice things up]

Hello! I can tell you where you are, but how about we make a game out of it? I'll give you three options, if you can guess which one is the right one, I'll tell you more details.

[disasterroar]

[Wow! So this really worked!]

Hello.

[Okay, he is in need of information and not exactly in the mood for games now, but...]

...Um, it's fine with me.

[helitraptor]

[He, on the other hand, sounds pretty excited.]

Great! So, here are the three options. Think carefully, because each one of them actually holds a grain of truth.

Option a, this is a place where people who died have the chance to live again. In other words, this is the afterlife, and although maybe you don't remember it, you're dead!

Option b, you're dreaming! And since this is just a dream, anything you wish for has the chance of actually happening. Neat, right?

Option c, something caused you to reach a whole different world. Hard to believe it, but this is a place that lies beyond anything you've ever known.

[disasterroar]

Hmm... Let's see...

I can't be dead, I'm more than sure about that.

...It's kinda hard to believe it's a dream... [He's dreams are weirder than that.] But it's even harder to believe this can be some different world.

But I guess, I'll choose the option c?

[immamartillo]

Sure, but you're not gonna like it.

[He takes a deep breath, trying to find a nice way to break the news to the poor guy. Then he gives up and just goes ahead.] It's a place called 'Splendor,' and I'm not too clear on all the details but it's a helluva long way from where ever you're from.

[disasterroar]

[Okay. That doesn't sound too good.]

...Splendor, huh? [Hmm, nope, never heard about a place called like that.] ... And how did I get here?

Re: Voice

[immamartillo]

That I don't really know. Apparently it's the music box. Were you listenin' to one before you came here? It just poped up outta nowhere?

Re: Voice

[disasterroar]

Yeah! I remember finding one. [But what now...] So... is there any way to go back?

[patchworkdoctor]

A city with the ability to give you whatever you'd like.

[that about sums it up. Let him stare at you for a while.]

[video] welcome to the party xD

[disasterroar]

[W-whoa. He stares for a second at the creepy looking person.]

...Really? So... it makes wishes come true or something?

[video] B) aw yiss.

[patchworkdoctor]

[He doesn't even notice the staring.]

To a point.

[video]

[disasterroar]

[He's now thinking that Annie would be totally scared of this person.]

So... not all of them come true... is that right, Mister?

[voice] 'sup. this is so late ahsjgh

[fonicpuppeteer]

I guess you're another new arrival, huh?

[voice] don't worry about that ;)

[disasterroar]

... I guess so.

[voice] okay :D

[fonicpuppeteer]

You don't sound very concerned. [ Usually the newcomers tell her about how they're confused and where is this and what are they doing here etc. ]

[voice] ^^

[disasterroar]

...Because there's nothing to be concerned about. [Yup, nothing at all. Just keep telling yourself that, Mao.]
