[ there's a crackle of static, as if it's taken some time for the Jungogam to work ]

-is this? Can anyone hear me? I can't believe I'm talking to a box.

If there's anyone out there who can hear me, I'd like to know where I am. This forest is unfamiliar and I've lost my horse. I'd appreciate directions to the nearest village.

You know, you will need to be a bit more specific than that if you require assistance. Chances are you are near Streamdrab and the Caravan along with the other newcomers.

As for the box... well... you get used to it.

[idkmywarlock]

[ kjshad startled noise as he drops the Jungogam. He wasn't really expecting anyone to answer back. ]

[idkmywarlock]

Specific about what, exactly? My location is unknown to me as is this Steamdrab you talk of- I have never heard of such a village lying in Cenred's kingdom. [ pause. deep breaths arthur, don't want to scare away the voice thing that might be able to help ]

But if you were able to give me directions to it, it would be most appreciated.

I take it that you are unused to such sorcery as well? With this box, I mean.

[menkheperatum]

The problem is that the forest is rather large and even if I were to tell you to head in some cardinal direction, I doubt that would mean much to you either. In a way, we are just as lost in this world as you.

Quite. It is not magic. I think I would much prefer it if it were.

》 VOICE

[libraria]

Um, s-sir? I can hear you.

[ Pause. Sigh. ]

I think you're near the village of Streamdrab, l-like the other newcomers. Do you think you can find the village? I-If you do, the Caravan will be there.

》 VOICE

[idkmywarlock]

Are you the one that is control of this box?

[ pause. he's still getting used to the voice in the box thing. she sounds young, but age didn't matter with magic, did it? ]

If I were to be given directions to it, I should be able to. Is this Caravan willing to take on passengers in need of quick transport?

》 VOICE

[libraria]

Oh, no! They're devices used to communicate - I-I don't control them.

[ Mind reading magic~~ I mean what :) ]

Yes, i-it's taking everyone! It's going to Loophole - the place where we all get home, apparently.

》 VOICE

[idkmywarlock]

So I've heard. They're called - Jungogams, was it? It's an odd name, but I suppose it suits this ... box which is equally as odd.

[ so much magic. cannot comprehend. 8( ]

And how long will it take to reach there?

If it isn't the young prince.

[idkmywarlock]

[ ldkjf someone knows him. but he's in disguise. play it cool arthur. maybe he's bluffing ]

And you would be-?

voice;

[theoldmagick]

[pfft, Arthur, you don't get off that easily]

Mmm, wouldn't you like to know, boy? Suffice to say I know you very well.

[idkmywarlock]

[ go away troll dragon 8( ]

I do not have time to be playing guessing games. If you are one of Cenred's men, you will not find me.

[evil_bonnet]

...Merlin? Who names their child that nowadays? Like something out of the Arthurian legend. Tch. And the 'box' you're talking to is like a phone. Or laptop.

[idkmywarlock]

It's an odd name, but it's hardly legendary. Unless you count the ability to be utterly foolish to be a thing of legend. Which I suppose in his case-

And what exactly is a "foone" or "lap-tope"?

[evil_bonnet]

Not exactly what I meant. Nevermind that.

They are a sort of human technology. Machines. Surely you know of such things? Or are you just an uneducated country boy?

[idkmywarlock]

I am not a country boy. And I have never heard of this techno-what have you or anything else you've mentioned.

[voice]

[veracitatem]

If you are in need, I can return to the forest and lead you back to the village. I have seen no one by the name of Merlin, however.

[voice]

[idkmywarlock]

Some directions will suffice. Although, if you are familiar with the area, perhaps you can tell me where one might find an area with caves. I'm currently looking for someone.

[veracitatem]

I am not intimately familiar, but I can say that there are no caves in this area. The land would not support it.

But directions require a point of orientation. If you see marks in the trees, they will either lead you deeper into the forest, or to Streamdrab. They are fresh, however, and should still bleed sap.

[1/2]

[idkmywarlock]

None at all? Perhaps there might be some in the bordering areas?

Hold on.
