» 67 [ surprise experiments ]

[wise_maiden]

According to my observations, there seem to be many things going on at once. Sudden illnesses. Inability to stop speaking. Changes in gender and personality. Animals. Children. Perhaps even something else that I've missed

It doesn't look like I've been affected, Professor. I'm still me and I feel completely healthy. I can help, but... I don't really know how.

[wise_maiden]

I have a feeling a hectic time is ahead of us... whether or not this lasts a week, or longer. There could very well be dangers to the village that we will need any Blue Rogues or Brave Vesperia members who aren't affected to keep watch for, so stay on alert.

Making sure that people are accounted for -- it wouldn't surprise me if I've lost everyone who's been recently assigned to do just that, but we'll manage as we can.

[winged_rogue]

The best we can do is help people who've grown sick or turned into children, and make sure nobody tries to attack the village. If the personality experiment is happening again, our best friends could change for the worse. With so many different things happening at the same time, it's going to be pretty hard to keep track, though.

[wise_maiden]

Then we'll have to tackle things as they are handed to us, no differently than usual.

Currently not affected.

...You speak of "sudden illnesses".
Requesting to know if those illnesses have proven to be life-threatening.

[wise_maiden]

I see. Your writing is not familiar to me... are you a recent arrival?

[Filtered]

If it is the same virus that was given to people before, even this early on, then yes, it is very life threatening. There are two known strains of the disease. One leads to certain death, while the other, after a period of time and care, is recoverable from.

It takes a few days to determine which is which, however.

[truthfragments]

Yes.

...Requesting to know how to determine which is which.

[wise_maiden]

I see. May I have your name?

There are a number of symptoms, but the most telling is the fever. If the fever does not break within a couple of days, then it's fatal. If it breaks, they'll be able to recover.

[goldenpathredux]

I appear to be unaffected. I am pleased to see community still functioning here.

[wise_maiden]

There is no reason to allow things to fall into chaos simply because a lot is happening.

[mirrorbirth]

I haven't been affected, so far.

[wise_maiden]

Understood. Thank you for checking in.

[mirrorbirth]

Just tell me if anything needs to be done.

[wise_maiden]

It seems a number of members from the Blue Rogues and Brave Vesperia were affected. Should anything dangerous happen from some of these possible personality turns, we'll need people to be able to step in...

There are also a lot of children around, so it might be best to keep an eye out for those who are wandering as well.

[salvationfound]

I'd like to know more about this country, my lady.

[wise_maiden]

Mm... you're Kratos, aren't you? From -- Aselia.

How much have you already been told?

[salvationfound]

You seem to have met me, yet I don't recall...

...[Oh whatever, let's give the brief summary that Sheena gave, basically a little outline of the world.]

[wise_maiden]

... It's a long story. In any case, my name is Raine.

Hm, at least you're not totally in the dark... is there anything specific you'd like me to elaborate on?
