001 [ dictated / action ]

Tokunaga? [The voice is quiet at first over the journal, hesitant and confused before Seles takes a moment to look at her surroundings. Extravagant, open, and large...] ...This isn't His Majesty's... [Her thought trails off as her eyes find their way to the open journal on the stand nearby, and she's equally startled at the way she can see her words appear. There's a loud gasp and she slams the journal shut and takes off down the hall.

Was she being watched...?! The way she got here wasn't the only thing she couldn't remember either, though most thoughts were out of her mind at the moment thanks to the immediate panic and shock. And worry, of course. What kind of magic was this?! She had to find out what was going on!

Honestly, with her attire it's not so easy for her to hide. But still she tries, sneaking down the halls and hiding behind plants, peering from around corners and into doors, and generally being a snoop. A very bad quality snoop.

Feel free to run into her anywhere in the castle!]

[quarterelf]

That's not all! How do you know my brother? I thought I heard you call Tethe'alla something else, too...

[She's not going crazy is she?!]

[heal_theworld]

...I met your brother here. And [Sigh.] I called it Aselia.

[quarterelf]

[She doesn't get this at all. She's not sure what to believe. ...Sort of grabbing at her hat to straighten it more, she turns away.]

I can find the rest, as well as my room, on my own now, thank you.

[heal_theworld]

Wait, Seles...! [Oh, hell, what does she say? She's never had this problem before, really. Everybody else knew the truth.]

[quarterelf]

[She pauses in walking, barely glancing back.]

Yes? What is it?

[heal_theworld]

I'll answer any questions you have. I know it's confusing and I know... your brother wanted to tell you, but I just can't let you walk away like this. [Not knowing anything. Seles is too nice for that. Martel would feel terrible.]

[quarterelf]

[She turns at that, hesitating. Her brother...?]

What did he want to tell me? [That counts as a question right?]

[heal_theworld]

About everything. About me, and the world. I don't feel like I should be the one to tell you, though. No matter how much you say you don't like him, he's still your brother. But.. [She gives her a hopeful smile.] Let me at least help you find your room?

[quarterelf]

[Zelos... actually wants to tell her something. Enough that he told this person so soon not to tell her? Hm. She's not sure what that means, but somehow it lifts her spirits the slightest.

Just enough to go on with her attitude.]

If he thinks he can hide something important from me, he's got another thing coming! I'll ask him about it later, then. And I'll expect the full details. [So there!]

...If you insist, then let's go. I want to settle in.

[heal_theworld]

[That actually went better than expected. Martel smiles gratefully.] Then we had better find your room, then.

[quarterelf]

Yes. Let's get going! [...Looks at expectantly! Yes she doesn't even know which way from here.]
