First Case: The Letter

[unnaturalpause]

[Filtered away from First gens, people who would pass the information to them]

[This is all written, very legibly for all to see.]

During the latest expedition a letter was discovered, however with the world change and other, difficulties, I am only now sharing this with the castle at large. I do apologize for the delay.

Hello, travelers from a distant land,
We write out to you on behalf of Libet, home of many years
If these words are reaching you, we are already dead.

You see around you what the remains of a once grand and happy place.
On January 5th, our once-happy castle began to collapse.
It had grown tired of our need to grow beyond it.
It wanted to stay as it was, while we wanted progress.
It reminded us of our past experiences, and its history disgorged.
We long have feared that our paradise would die.
It seems so very weak these days.
It doesn't speak to us anymore.
We fear it soon will completely, collapse.

Though we wish it didn't have to come to this,
We are thankful for the time we've had.
May you still have many happy days ahead of you.

Love,
The Residents of Libet

((ooc: This is LONG overdue for information gained from the expedition. But with LJ being difficult as well as other things last month, I figured now would be a good time to share. Threadjacking/hopping/what have you is encouraged because, James really won't have much to say and wants to hear what you all think. Have at it!))

... How would that make it better?

[unnaturalpause]

...At least then their worlds could, continue on, their loved ones able to bury them, instead of being here.

[payback]

... I dunno if I'd want to have to bury someone I loved at all! Maybe it's better that they're there.

[unnaturalpause]

Would you like for those you cared for to be permanently unable to move on with their lives? As according to those here, that is what happens when we are here, our world pauses.

[payback]

What?! No, there must be some way that could work out!

[unnaturalpause]

I highly doubt that there is, but it is also why we are, looking for more information.

[payback]

Well if you think it's so hopeless why do you think there's a way it could work out?

[unnaturalpause]

If it is one thing, that I have learned throughout my life, just because something, seems impossible at the present moment does not mean that it is. We will figure this out, no matter what it takes.

[payback]

Okay...

[unnaturalpause]

But be that as it may be, Ms. Asano, are you feeling alright? [Because this didn't seem like her at all really, from what little he knew of her.]

[payback]

Um... yeah, of course! [She sounds puzzled. She is puzzled. She's feeling okay, besides the complete amnesia.]

[unnaturalpause]

Very well then, have you settled in well after recent events? [/sob He doesn't know that, but he's trying to be polite!]

[payback]

Um... what recent events were those? [not to worry, it will be obvious in fairly short order. Like now.]

[unnaturalpause]

I see. [...Crap.] I do think, it is not so important presently. I do hope you are well at least?

[payback]

Yeah, of course, Iiii'm all in one piece, hahaha.

... Did you know me before too?

[unnaturalpause]

I am glad to hear that.

...I did, albeit briefly unfortunately. I take it then, that you are aware of certain things?
