first battle

[cloakand_danger]

...What the hell?

[sound of pages flipping]

...Huh. Wonderful.

[a pause] Should get them to turn up the heat in here, it's a bit cold... [longer pause] Wait. I don't get cold. Unless this room is the average temperature of Flanoir...

[a few unintelligible mutterings over the course of several minutes, faint cursing, followed by a zapping noise]
...Well, that's...inconvenient.

[more pages flipping]

It looks like there are quite a number of people here. If anyone recognizes any of the following terms, please contact me: Sylvarant, Tethe'alla, Kharlan, Martel.

Looks like this friendly slice of whatever snared another one.

Oh, and gesundheit, bless you, gesundheit, and bless you.

[cloakand_danger]

It doesn't seem terribly friendly to me.

...Gesundheit?

[warp-snipe-warp.livejournal.com]

Well, it's really not. See, we have this little thing called sarcasm...

Same as bless you, just stupid sounding and harder to spell.

[cloakand_danger]

Sorry, my sense of humor seems to have been left behind along with when I came here.

I...see.

[warp-snipe-warp.livejournal.com]

Heh. Better fix that quick. Otherwise this place is gonna be a hell.

[mintaidhealer.livejournal.com]

Hello, are you new here? I never seen you before. Welcome to Paradisa.


I recognize Martel, but which time you came from?

[cloakand_danger]

I appear to be, yes.

I don't fully understand the question. Sylvarant's seventh Chosen of Regeneration in this cycle is about to begin her journey, if that's what you mean.

[cloakand_danger]

I think I've discovered my loss already, although I wouldn't call it amnesia.

...Martel is...is...what?

...Where I come from, Martel is the name of the goddess worshiped nearly everywhere. We have an old legend about a tree that provided mana to the world, but it was known as the Great Kharlan Tree, and most now believe it to be a fairy tale. Yggdrasill is the name of the leader of Cruxis, who rules over the angels.

[mintaidhealer.livejournal.com]

It seems you're catching on quickly.

A goddess. Also, Cless, my friend, wield the Eternal Sword that could travel through time. It was split in half so long ago, so he has to make it whole again.

In our world, the tree is the same as your tree. It sustains our world with mana, but it's call Yggdrasill.

Someone from your world thinks. . .that our world is your future and your time is our past.

[scribbles out the 'l' in 'Clair' making it 'Cair']

[cloakand_danger]

I saw that. Is someone else reading this?

[soaringsky.livejournal.com]

Two are moons, one's Martel, I...think I heard the other one!

Why you ask? You from Aselia?

[cloakand_danger]

Moons? While each world knows the other's name as that of its moon, this is the first time I've heard both of them referred to as moons at the same time. And yes, one of the names is Martel, but does that mean anything to you?

No, I'm not from Iselia. If anything, I'm from Welgaia, on Derris-Kharlan.

[soaringsky.livejournal.com]

Each world? What do you mean each world? There's only Aselia, it has two moons named Tethe'alla and Sylvarant.

Martel is name of the spirit of the tree, at least that's what people call her.

[cloakand_danger]

...What you say makes no sense. The two worlds are named Tethe'alla and Sylvarant, they don't know of each other's existence, but each knows the name of the other world as the name of its moon. [draws arrow up to conversation with Mint] I've been speaking with someone else on the same subject, you can see it there.

[mintaidhealer.livejournal.com]

What she said is true. Me and Arche are friends and we came from the same world.

[cloakand_danger]

And you are...? Ah, Lord Forcystus, I recognize your voice now.

He's not here, then? What a shame.

How many are here?

[cloakand_danger]

I'm sure I'll manage.

They haven't made themselves known yet. I'll give them a bit longer to see this entry before I seek them out.

[littleblackcait.livejournal.com]

Newcomer, I take it? The castle's a bit... odd, at times. Don't let it get to you, though. There are those of us who are, relatively speaking, sane. I take it you've discovered your loss?

[cloakand_danger]

Yes, I am.

Looking through this journal, sanity and intelligence both seem a bit lacking, but so far I don't seem to be doing too badly with new acquaintances. I don't trust that luck to continue, though.

I have, yes.

[littleblackcait.livejournal.com]

Well, you've shown you have common sense. That puts you above and beyond over half the residents here.Hold on to that and you should be all right.

I see. Unfortunately, it's universal- we all lose something. I only hope it is not something you cherished.

[cloakand_danger]

Heh. I'll do my best.

Not something I cherished, exactly, but it is something that I've had for such a long time that I'm...feeling a bit off-balance without it.
