ONE GALD ♥ [VOICE/ACTION]

[fonicpuppeteer]

[ If you just so happen to be in the Golden District, you may notice an extremely distressed young girl wandering about. If not, you might begin to hear the faint sounds of footsteps and someone crying.

She hoped, so much, that someone could hear her right now -- which is why her seal activated. She's not even entirely sure if she wants anyone to

[fonicpuppeteer]

[ She looks up at him and tries to wipe the tears away from her eyes and stop crying -- which really doesn't work well because she's still crying -- except a little less now. Ion wouldn't like her being like this. He wouldn't like it at all. ]

I-I'm fine.

[ Not convincing enough, she assumes. ]

I'm fine!

[ Better? ]

[action]

[fonicpuppeteer]

[ Darn. He didn't buy it. That causes her extra trouble. What does she say? ]

I-I'm -- I'm maybe a little lost. Really lost.

[ And she's going to completely avoid telling him the real reason she's crying. Not going to talk about that right now, thank you. ]

Wh-where is this?

I'M HERE BBY SISTER ANISE/shot

[mykimlasca]

[Have a little blonde princess walking around looking for 'Abandoned Carter Estates' when she hears the sound of someone crying. A familiar voice, she's heard it before. Her footfalls pause briefly, her eyes wide, before she's sprinting, turning around the corner]

Anise? [she'll be walking to your side, hands settling themselves on your shoulders]
It's me, I'm so relieved, I was wondering if I could find any of you..oh dear..are you alright? [her brows furrow, as she kneels, using her thick white sleeves to try and dab at your eyes]

[fonicpuppeteer]

[ Oh, good. A familiar face. Anise is so relieved to see you, Natalia. She was certain she was all alone and that she'd stay alone. ]

I-I'm fine. I'm just a little lost, that's all.

[ Anise would never cry just because she's lost, but she hopes Natalia buys that excuse. She really just doesn't want to talk about the real reason right now. Just going to avoid it, please. ]

[mykimlasca]

[Natalia raises an eyebrow, giving her a look as if to say, 'I don't buy that' but she has her manners, and gently keeps her hands on her shoulders]

I can't say I really have a clear idea of where we are, but the residents here call it Splendor City. We're not in Auldrant anymore, Anise.

[fonicpuppeteer]

[ Anise is so confused right now. ]

Wh-what? Splendor City? We're not in Auldrant?!

[ Panic! So much panic! This is definitely not normal. ]

What about the others?! Did they come here too?

[nicepartner]

Hey ... [ Ash is worried now, he can't have a sad person here, no way. ] are you alright? I can explain some things if you haven't heard 'bout it from the others.

audio;

[fonicpuppeteer]

N-no, I haven't heard anything from anyone. I-it'd be really nice if you--

[ Okay, wait. Where is that voice coming from? This interests her and really, really confuses her.

And she looks around frantically to try and find the source of the voice -- but she can't find anything. What. ]

W-whoa, wait. Where are you?

audio;

[nicepartner]

Well, this place is Splendor -- and have you seen the seal? It's a gold, circular thing that allows people to communicate!

audio;

[fonicpuppeteer]

[ Oh, so that's what that weird gold thing is. Now it makes sense! Her crying is stopping a bit, now. Understanding things is good. ]

Splendor? I've never even heard of a place like that.

-- And so we're talking through that seal thing right now?

[voice]

[glimmerofheaven]

[Well SOMEONE sure is upset.]

Hey now, hey now, ol' Raven can't stand hearin' girls cry.

Ya alright there, darlin'?

[voice]

[fonicpuppeteer]

W-well, I--

[ Wait, how is she hearing a voice, but no one is around? She'd rather have that question answered before anything else right now. ]

W-wait, how are you talking to me if I can't see you?

[voice]

[glimmerofheaven]

[Raven laughs a little.]

Ya know that weird seal that ya appeared here with? Ya can use that ta talk ta anyone else 'round here who has one.

'S pretty neat, huh?

[voice]

[fonicpuppeteer]

[ She was wondering about that thing. You've cleared it up for her! ]

R-really?

... I guess it's kind of neat. Sounds pretty weird to me, though.

[burnerv2]

[Yeah, Decus was in the Golden District, surprisingly. After Kefka's dress up game, he didn't have the energy to go anywhere else but sit on the Tenna Villa estate roof. Oh boy ... she didn't look to good. Well not like he could cheer her up or anything. He could but ...he'll just speak through the seals watching her.]

It's dangerous for kids to be walking alone you know.

[action]

[fonicpuppeteer]

[ Okay, what? She stops crying for a moment to look around. That's a pretty creepy thing to say -- especially when she can't see you and has no clue as to where your voice is coming from. ]

Wh-what?

[action]

[burnerv2]

[Apparently no matter what he does, it counts as creepy. But whatever the case is, he'll just lay back on the roof.]

I'll go on a limb and say you're new around here. Welcome or whatever suits your fancy.

[action]

[fonicpuppeteer]

[ He doesn't seem to be very enthusiastic or friendly. He's just kind of... there. It's not helping her at all. ]

U-um, yeah. Wh-where is this place?
