001 [Action] - Intro

[ 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?

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

Aye!~ [She smiles brightly for a few seconds, before it hits her.] ... Why are you asking?

Oh, well. I'm afraid I've never met you. Yuri told me your name.

Oh, that's... Is that so? [Two of her friends don't remember her... The concept is a little difficult for her to grasp.]

[Seeing Patty's sadness makes Estelle feel more than a little bad, even though there's nothing she can do about it.]

I... I'm sorry.

[She's silent for a few more seconds, but then she shakes her head and tries to smile up at Estelle again.]

No, it's all right! If you don't have any memories of me, then... We'll just have to create new ones, right?

[Estelle smiles back at Patty.]

Yes of course! How about we start with a real introduction?

[She offers her hand to Patty.]

My name is Estelle.

[Patty finally hops to her feet and gives that hand a firm, enthusiastic shake.]

The name's Patty Fleur! Adventurer, treasure hunter and generally cute girl!

[Another giggle as she shakes Patty's hand.]

It's wonderful to meet you! I'm certain we'll be great friends.

[Estelle was definitely believing the cute part. Patty is so adorable!]

Aye, we will be! So when did you get here?

Just today, actually. [Which was probably pretty obvious since she was still wearing her newfeather clothes.]

What about you?

Three days ago, on the mark! I'm not as settled in as the old man, just yet.

So you're new here, too.

[Didn't Yuri say he'd just arrived yesterday? And yet Raven said he's been here for years. Not to mention Yuri had been here before. How odd.]

I was about to go find my clothes.

[She stands up.]

Would you like to come with me? I don't know my way around yet.

Aye, you got it! I'll show you exactly where you need to go! The store's not too far from here.

[She takes a few steps away from the house and in the general direction of the plaza, expecting Estelle to follow.]

Wonderful!

[And follow she does! She walks alongside Patty, clasping her hands in front of her.]

This village is so quaint. [It wasn't all that bad for a virtual prison.]

It's more like a temporary home, but lots of people have settled down here with a long-term future in mind anyway. But I don't think I can sit still that long, ya know. I'm too used to traveling to drop my anchor anywhere for too long.

[This thought bothered her a little bit. Was there really so little hope of going home? Or was it just that nice here? She doubted that last sentiment a bit since there have been people who have told her otherwise.]

What do you plan to do?

I think I'll stay with you guys a while longer, then get myself a boat and explore the ocean for a bit. From what I've heard, there's nothing out there, but no ocean is one of a kind! I have to see it all with my own eyes.

[Because when she said she can't sit still for too long, she meant it literally. Even if they can't leave the barrier, she can't stay cooped up inside the house forever. She needs to travel, even if it's just one side of their 'prison' to another.]/small>

That sounds like quite an adventure. You will come and visit now and then, right? I want to hear all about what you see!

Of course! You're my friends, so you're the first to hear all about my grand adventures, ya know!

[The idea of exploration was starting to pique her curiosity. And so she mused to herself.]

I wonder what's out there.

No treasure, or so I've been told. But I won't believe it until I see it! Treasure is treasure as long as it has some kind of value, so it's more than just gold and other expensive trinkets.

That's true. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. So what one would consider worthless, another would see as treasure.

[By this point they were approaching the shops and Estelle was looking at the buildings with mounting interest as they passed.]

Aye, that's right! Never underestimate the power of sentimental value and personal taste!

[Patty is now heading straight for the clothes store. She assumes that's the first thing Estelle will want to retrieve, what with her being a Princess and all. Weapons and other belongings will come after.]

[As Estelle follows Patty into the clothing store, her mind boggles at the abundance of outfits and various clothing pieces to choose from. Being stuck in a castle most of her life, she didn't exactly have the opportunity to shop for her own clothes. People did that for her.]

O-oh... There's so much here!

[Could they possibly find her outfit amongst all this?]

There sure is! I'll bet you can find a new outfit for every day of the year! But some of these probably belong to other people, so we can't just take everything, ya know.
