… So this is how it works, huh? [ A small, inquisitive baritone voice is heard as he looks at all the handwriting over the papers. Sitting on the edge of the fountain outside the cabins there is a man wearing his infamous orange shirt for anyone who might be close, concentrated in what he has to say. ]

It seems like I am far away from all that I have come to know. And even do not know everything that is around me. Certainly this isn’t Elysium or the Underworld but neither is the Sanctuary of Athena.

[ Why is he here is something he cannot understand. Why him? Would this be a reliable source? ]

Any information about this place… any detail you may have even if it is irrelevant will be entirely appreciated.

[ If he can find a permanent way out, even better… ]

[ His expression is impassive, but it‘s just a facade for his inner worry. ]

So the Gods aren‘t behind those said surprises. Only this... Castle.

[ He could have expected it from them. Crap. ]

[wishmadeinfire]

Oh yes, quiet. Though, sometimes it is from Residents, but most of it can be attributed to the Castle. When it is quiet, it is lovely. When not....

[sosweet]

Hm. [ Excuse him as he frowns and sighs heavily at the thought. ]

[wishmadeinfire]

[sosweet]

Yes. The camp seems harmless for now.

[wishmadeinfire]

For now, but it seems worth enjoying.

Though, to be honest, I have never been to 'camp'.

[sosweet]

[ Chuckles. ] I can say it is a different experience compared to where I've been.

[wishmadeinfire]

Much different than anything I have been in. Even the Army was kept at the palace, since we didn't fight on any soil we knew.

[sosweet]

Are you a fighter?

[ He looks more like royalty. ]

[wishmadeinfire]

I would not be a very good king if I let my people face a hopeless threat without me, would I?
