001 [Action] - Intro

[childofthefullmoon]

 [ Estelle didn't exactly wake up in the most comfortable position. She was sprawled on the floor of the library, face down. Eventually she started to stir and groaned a little before pushing herself up into a sitting position. Kneeling, with her hands folded in her lap, the girl blinked a few times as she began to look around. This was an unfamiliar place, and yet not unpleasant, since she was surrounded by books. Confusion was written all over her features as she attempted to get her bearings. Just where was she anyway? Her mind was foggy and she was generally disoriented. Not to mention she looked a little silly just sitting there, having absolutely no clue what was going on. It finally occurred to her that she should maybe look around. Standing up, she took a few steps forward and peeked around a bookcase.]

Hello?

...I was not aware that you had returned. [But. Something doesn't seem right about her.

She slides the book into the shelf and turns her full body towards the other girl to inspect her for a moment. Estelle is still wearing her new feather's dress so... does that mean she just woke up? She would've changed by now otherwise.

And the expression on her face... It doesn't hold any kind of recognition, of her or the library. It's one of confusion.] Are you aware of your current location at the present?

[childofthefullmoon]

[Brows crease slightly as she tilts her head to one side. Returned? What does she mean?

She shakes her head.]

No, I have never been here before.

[She didn't know Zaphias had such a library. But then.. she didn't know a lot of things about the capitol. Estelle hadn't really gotten out much until within the past year.]

[fortuneprince]

...As I thought. [Saying that more to herself than anyone.

It really is to be expected here. When people come back from disappearing, no matter how long it's been, no one generally expects them to remember anything. If they do, it's some kind of miracle.

Or curse. Whichever fits how they lived here.]

You are in a place we refer to as "Luceti". It is not a place that is located anywhere in your world. In fact, it is an entirely different world than your own.

[childofthefullmoon]

A different world?

[She was genuinely stunned by this. Plus the cryptic words were a bit... creepy. How did this person know her? Cause it sure seemed like she did.]

But how?

[fortuneprince]

The method in which you were brought here is still, to this day, unknown. All of the people you will soon see in this village have also been brought here through this unknown method.

However, we are aware that a group of scientists referred to as the "Malnosso" are the ones responsible. [She pauses for a moment] Was there a book with you when you woke?
