[Written] - 001

[Sitting on a bed in one of the rooms in CB1, Alexei was quietly looking through and listening to the contents of the journal he had found when he woke up. It was all he had to work with after waking up where he shouldn't be. He shouldn't even be conscious to comprehend that he wasn't. He should be dead, but this pain...it was all wrong. He had so many questions swimming through his head when he found himself alive, but he needed to be careful.

He had no idea what he was dealing with yet or what sort of people were here. He placed the journal down off to the side, with a blank page open. This book was the quickest way to get his answers, but he was still rather suspicious of it. It can write, speak and even show who was communicating...what magic was behind it? He picks up his writing utensil. He'll have to be careful how he writes and where his position was from the journal, if it was capable of capturing images of the communicator. He didn't want to be seen or heard yet. People could be out for his head for all he knew.]

From my observation I can see that this journal is a type of communication device. As to how, I don't quite understand. Books should not be able to write on its own, or speak or make images appear. Can someone explain to me how this simple book has been turned into a form of communication? And what other capabilities does it have besides recording sound and image as well?

Can I assume that people who are using this are residents of this strange place? If that is the case, then I would also like an explanation as to where I am and who thought it would be funny to install wings on me. I also woke up without my equipment. What has happened to it? Who is in charge of this place? If this can contact them, I demand answers.

[A pause]

Please. I appreciate any information that can be given.

[ooc: Note, no one can see Alexei through the journal. He's suspicious of letting his identity known to complete strangers right now.]

[ Hughes just likes talking, idek. ]

Very inquisitive. That's a good sign, I think! Welcome to Luceti- my name is Maes Hughes and I'd be glad to answer any questions that I can.

[Well good, he'll be doing that a lot here. There's a pause before writing appears on the journal]

Thank you for responding, Mr. Hughes. So you call this place, Luceti? Where is it exactly?

Not on any maps we've seen so far. It's a bit of a meeting point for citizens from various worlds.

People here, from various worlds? That sounds impossible to be true.

Yes, it really does. Unfortunately, that still seems to be the case. We've all been abducted from our various worlds for experimentation here.

Experimentation? So we are nothing but mere test subjects here? Who is in charge?

A group called the Malnosso are running the show. They're difficult to get a number on, and they're capable of inflicting any number of things onto the population.

But why? What are they after with these experiments?

I have no idea yet. If common theory is to be believed, they're trying to get us back home- but believing everything you're told is a bit too easy.

[...]

They way you described them, are you saying they are not the ones responsible for us being here then?

That's what they tell us. Of course, I'm not much of one for trusting the word of the scientists, myself.

I see. Then these wings are part of their experiments?

An ongoing one. I recommend being very careful about them while you're here- removing them results in death.

[Ugh, what a nuisance.]

Anything else I should be aware of about this place?

Probably a lot more. There is a very handy reference around here somewhere. I think passing it down is just about customary.

[Newbies are flowing in again, huh. Might as well take care of this in as much of a fell swoop as she can.]

How polite ♥

You strike me as a man who can handle a fair share of reading, this (http://wise-maiden.livejournal.com/24338.html) should certainly suffice.

[...Was the journal able to record an image based on who was writing? Perhaps she only assumed...]

A guide? I heard there was one, but I couldn't locate it. Thank you.

It's good for the basics.

It's a slow day over here, if you've got any questions beyond that I could take a crack at them.

[It takes a while before Alexei writes anything else. He had stopped around the Third Party article]

It says here that we have a war on our hands? I don't know how long its been since this was written, but what's the situation right now?

I haven't been around for very long, but I could certainly answer some questions for you!

Thank you. I received a guide not too long ago and I notice the calendar system for this place. Would you mind telling me what day is it?

[...cause it was definitely not snowing at home]

Also, I notice an interesting list on the guide. A list of various individuals here that are considered [there was a pause] dangerous. Do you know who compiled this list?

[Because for some odd reason, his name is on it]

The date? Hmm ... Judging by the holidays that have just passed, it would be the 7th of January.

[There's an odd pause after his next question, though.]

Ah ... a list? May I see this list, please?

[...]

Of course. [He presents the list]

So you have never noticed this list before?

I must have missed it ... [Looking over it carefully ... good. Her name isn't on there. She smiles confidently at that.] Ah, but I'm not certain who could have compiled such a list. It has never been discussed during my time here, that I'm certain of that! Hm, so it must have been created at least three months ago, or later than that.

I see. Then I suppose you wouldn't know why some of the names are crossed out.

[...this was very odd. He can see clearly his name, despite it being crossed out. What did it mean though? Couldn't mean he was dead, he was alive right here!]

It's rather helpful list, although it's disappointing to see there are even conflicts within this village even when there's apparently a war at hand.

I wouldn't really, no. If I had to guess, I would assume that meant they went home or were perhaps ah, dealt with in some fashion.

[light giggle goes here, and then continuing on]

It doesn't surprise me to see such a list though! The more a settlement grows, the more dangerous it becomes to live in, after all -- even if greater danger lies just outside our little prison.

Those who have committed crimes will meet their end soon enough.

Is there such existing law enforcement here? And I mean a proper one.

[She ignores the first comment -- she will never meet any ends. She will become god, and that is that.]

A proper one ...? No, I'm afraid not! Only these little ragtag groups of warriors.

Is that so? This guide tells me people have been here for several years and this is the best they can do?

[He's so very disappointed...and he notices Brave Vesperia is one of those ragtag groups listed...so now he knows some people from home are here as well.]

Thank you for answering all of my questions so far. There is one other thing I would like to ask. Journal filtering, how does one go about doing that?

Filtering ... ah, it's a bit tricky to figure out on your own, but once you've set up a basic filter ...

[Filtered; 20%]

You can make it as low ...

[Filtered; 100%]

... Or high as you want! [gigglegiggle] As for starting it ... [insert directions here]

[There was a long pause. Alexei had a grin on his face. This was something he could take advantage of now that he knew and he was surprised to receive this information so easily. He starts to write again]

Thank you for that information. You've been rather helpful answering my questions. Your name, miss?

I am Miyo Takano. [Might as well use Western order. This guy doesn't look Japanese to her.] Do I get to learn your name as well, mysterious writer?

[...]

Renato. A pleasure meeting you, Miss Takano.

[... Renato? Must be Italian or Spanish -- something like that. It certainly sounds like it may be.]

The pleasure's all mine! [gigglegiggle] Do you have any other questions?

You've answered all my questions that I required for now. Thank you again.

It's no problem. Good luck with settling in!
