Ah... hello? Does this work properly? I certainly hope so. I would hate to be the fool who talks to herself. *A bit of a chuckle.*

I will start by introducing myself. I am Enkidu. Would anyone, perchance, have a name for this strange place? This is certainly not heaven like described in the culture I was taught in... Perhaps this is a different place after death? Another test for me?

... Mm, it seems the Gods will not let this girl rest peacefully after all.

Although, I wonder, has anyone met my sister Gilgamesh in this place? If she is here I must return to her side right away.

I only hope someone will be kind enough to have the answers I desire. Thank you for your time, residents.

[voice.]

Hmm. With the recent arrivals, it seems more questions than answers are coming up.

I propose that some of us have a small meeting, simply to talk over various subjects of interest, related to the Gardens or not. Perhaps we'll gain answers, perhaps only more questions will occur.

Is anyone interested?

[text]

[after a decent amount of time has passed and replies have been received, this is written down.]

Three days from now, early evening, at Beaumont. Refreshments will be provided (including cookies).

[When Angelica awakens, she methodically changes her clothes--glad to find her gun among her possessions--and patiently reads all of the scrolls.]

Where is Marco?

[No answer from the cat. After a few moments, Angelica gets the vine to work.]

Is this Heaven?

[I mean when the last thing you remember is protecting your handler from a close range explosion, what else do you ask....]

A- ah- is anyone there?

[The vines starts with the image of a young, seemingly teenaged girl looking hesitantly into the mirror. There's nothing extraordinary about her at first glance, although she may appear somewhat Asian, with long dark hair and eyes to match. If your gaze travels up a bit, however, you'll find a golden crescent moon upon her forehead, that seems to shine. She's still dressed in the white shift, not having changed yet into her gown.]

The note said this was the Garden, but- I don't recognize it. Is this Earth? It looks so much like it, so beautiful! Endymion?

[There's a moment, where she waits for an answer, something that's a mixture of curiosity and nervousness in her eyes, before she speaks again.]

Mercury? Venus? Mars, Jupiter?

[Remilia is composed. She might not remain that way for long, but she's feeling pretty good about her chances. Someone has kidnapped her and taken out of her mansion and to some silly garden in the dead of night, somehow without waking her, when she hadn't remembered being asleep in the first place.

Okay, somewhat less composed. The NPCs' messages clear things up before it becomes a full-scale Situation.]


Well. This is new. Sakuya, are you around? Certainly a queen wouldn't be so gauche as to bring me here without my entourage.


...Honestly. Am I going to have to dirty my hands with this incident resolution business again? If I make a habit of it, people will start to talk. I'm not some protector of the innocent, you know. I'm the Scarlet Devil.

[After the necessities had changed, and hearing about hot springs in the vicinity,  Hikari and Asuka venture towards what is the Onsen. Whether or not they actually existed was kind of important to Hikari, since she would love any sort of luxury like that. Finding someplace to stay was a little more important, though.

When they finally reach an inn, Hikari stops walking and looks at it. She feels herself smiling a little bit at the design, and then turns her head towards Asuka.]

Hey, doesn't that look like an inn?

> After talking to Britanny about a beach with magical unicorns, you decided to head out to this place by yourself.

> This has proved to be a bad idea.

> Man, that's a big wave...

[The vagaries of the Dunes have dumped Souji back in the middle of the Necessities, soaked through her school uniform with salt water, and missing a couple of days.]

[Never one to dwell on things, especially not stepping in the wrong place in a new weird dungeon...thing, she stands up, wrings out her hair, and looks around this new place. Hey, at least there are buildings here.]

Fb qbrf nalbar jnag gb rkcynva gur ornpu?

...

Jung?

((OOC: Souji's brand new Wildcard is garbled speech. For the curious, all her speech will be cyphered in rot13 until further notice.

The fact that What=Jung is just a hilarious coincidence, I swear.))

Okay, what the hell. The living spaces all get renovated, and...there's not a single normal building among them? What, is it too much to ask to just have, you know, a house?
