[ Hey Ataraxion, have one obviously annoyed, slightly frustrated, small brunette currently looking into what she assumes is the camera of the device in front of her. She’s only been here for a couple of hours, and already she thinks this is some convoluted dream – she just hasn’t figured out whose yet.

Brow furrowed, she lets out a long sigh, rubbing at the back of her neck before finally speaking to the screen. ] So it seems I'm not alone here. [ Which is a good thing, right? (or so she hopes) ] Yet none of you seem to have any real answers.

[ It’s not annoyance in her voice then, more sympathetic perhaps. (She feels your frustrations, okay?) A small smile ghosts across her face, taking on an almost hopeful expression. ]

Is there a way we could all work together - start ruling out some possibilities maybe?

At least maybe get an idea as to why we were the ones taken. [Quickly adding: ] Is there something significant about you others would find beneficial – anything that may be important?

[ She pauses, attention turning away from the device, and the faint sound of metal hitting the table can be heard. (She tests her totem yet again, still unsatisfied with the results.) Her attention drifts back to the screen, as she clearly is fighting back the panic and uncertainty before she mumbles. ]

Dreams feel real when you're in them...

[ Not that the rest of the people here would understand that. But she needs to keep reminding herself this fact. ]

No. [ Stone faced and adamant ] I don't dream.

[ Would it be wise to tell her she instead had visions of a writer creating the comic book and concept albums chase is a part of? ....Yeah, let's not freak everyone out. ]

[ that saddens her slightly. doesn't everyone want to dream in some way? ]

What about daydreams - you ever let your imagination run wild? [ so she might be trying to feel out the situation here. she's sorta curious how to approach this now. ]

Hnnn. Anything I've ever daydreamed about isn't a daydream, per se. I imagine bits and pieces of the Ghansgraad. [ A small pause. Since she's the only one from her universe... ] A very, very important book.

You seen very keen on this dreaming thing.

No, you're right. It just means your mind is open to them is all. Dreams just honestly are an amazing thing - it only seems logical that they play a part in things.

[ her brow arched, looking more curious then anything then. ]

I've never heard Ghansgraad - what type of book is it? [ clearly it may be of importance to her, right? ]

I suppose it's not too important in the grand scheme of things. [ Still, she holds up the battered, hexagonal book that looks like it's seen better years ] A prophecy. Of sorts.

Do you like to dream, then? [ Is that why there's all this talk of sleep and imagination? ]

[ brow furrowing, her attention going between the book (which is a new look for a book to her) and the girl. rubbing at the back of her neck, attempting to find her next words. ] Never seen a book like that. What sorts of prophecies are in it? [ clearly, she feels having as much of the details on things she doesn't know might help her here. sorry about that.

she smiles a bit wider then, nodding at her words. ] Dreams, well, they fascinate me. It's amazing what you can find out with them. Why it only seems right, I look to them here with everything.

The usual prophecies. Doom, gloom, saviour of world...

What sort of things can you find in dreams?
