Quest 001

[Accidental Voice Post]

--and I'll show you around the castle, Alexander! I'm so glad...Daddy's...

...Huh? What the—oh, drat, what now? Genesta, is that you? Hello! Anyone...?

Not again...

Honestly, I’m hardly home for an hour and all of a sudden I’m getting whisked off again. It’d be nice to have a little warning for once, so I could at least pack something...

Er...hello? Well, this doesn't look like Tamir, so...whoever it is who summoned me, I’m here and listening! Hello!

...Anybody?

I guess you were right about the deities being cruel, then. No one deserves to be cursed, and the way you make it sound, they do it for no good reason.

Well, it happens here a lot. They're not all really bad and you sort of get used to it.

Hey, ummmm, not to sound all creepy or anything but I know how hard it is just arriving here so if you need a place to stay for a bit I've got some room.

You...get used to getting changed into vampires and monsters and things? Though I guess if it happens so often, you'd have to, wouldn't you?

That's very kind of you! Um...I'm not really sure where I am right now, though.

It's not always vampires or monsters. Sometimes cool things happen too.

Probably by a fountain or a carousel?

Like what?

...How did you--can you see me, too?

Well, an amusement park just appeared the other day, that was nice. And once, everyone was turned into like... genies and sultans and there were flying carpets and stuff. I was a street urchin though. But I was going to be seriously rich once I found that magic lamp.

Heh, no, but most people who come here end up there first.

Heh, you should be careful with magic lamps, though. Not all genies are good!

Oh. Well, I landed in a fountain, but I managed to climb out before I got too soaked. And all the buildings around here look so strange!

Trust me, I wouldn't have had anything to do with it unless I was cursed. Magic like that is just asking for bad news.

Yeah. They're pretty normal for my world but I'm guess not for yours. Do you want me to tell you how to get here or I can come and get you?

Genies are, anyway. But sometimes magic can be really helpful. I mean, I'd have been eaten by a dragon if it wasn't for magic.

I've never seen anything like them. Um...would it be too much trouble for you to come get me? I'm so tired of walking...

If there wasn't magic, would you have been in a situation where you were going to be eaten by a dragon?

Not a problem, I'll be by soon in the Vespa. Wait, no, the Porsche. Yeah, the Porsche.

Well...it depends on how far back you go. If there wasn't magic, there wouldn't be the three magic treasures of Daventry, so they couldn't have gotten stolen, so my father couldn't have rescued them and become king. And without magic, he couldn't have met my mother, so I wouldn't have been born, and so on and so on. But magic didn't have anything to do with the dragon ravaging our kingdom, if that's what you mean.

...What's a Porsche?

Oh man, magic is so confusing. I'm glad there's not any of it in my world. I mean... not that I'm not glad there's magic in your world, because I'm glad you're here. I mean, not glad that you're here in the City, just glad you exist.

It's a car. Whiiiich you probably don't know about easier. Self-propelled, horseless carriage.

You're glad I exist, huh? Why's that?

...A carriage that moves itself. So it's some kind of machine?

Someone's got to save the unicorns from evil witches.

Yeah, it's a machine.

All right, now you really have cheered me up.

...Oh.

Hooray for Sam.

Okay, see you in a bit.

[ooc: Do you want to play out them meeting?]

I'll wait right here. Thank you so much!

[OOC: Sure! I'll be here for roughly another hour, and Rosella's technically been awake for about thirty-six hours straight, so I can just have her fall asleep if a convenient ending is needed. If that's cool with you?]

*Sam is there a short time later in the Porsche. He had also been thinking enough to bring a towel, although he mostly remembered that because he didn't want to get the interior of the car wet. Saya would come back to the City to kill him just for that. But hey, there's a dripping wet girl. Hopping out of the car with the towel he smiled.*

Hey, I'm Sam. You must be Rosella?

[ooc: works for me!]

[Rosella was indeed dripping wet, and she'd been watching for a person in a strange-looking machine, so she wasn't too startled when Sam arrived and introduced himself in person. Upon seeing him smile, she returned it brightly.]

Yes, you found me. Hello, Sam, it's nice to meet you in person!

*Sam offered her the towel, it really couldn't be pleasant being that wet. He just wished he had a change of clothes he could bring her. Well, that weren't his clothes.*

I did. I had to search a lot of fountains and talk to a lot of dripping wet girls but I'm finally here.

[She took it gratefully, drying the ends of her hair before starting to work on the hems of her rather elaborate court dress. It wasn't much help, unfortunately, but it was better than nothing.]

I guess I'm lucky you're so persistent, then.

*Sam offered her a sheepish grin, taking in the state of her clothing. Yeah, she was going to need new clothes. It wouldn't be weird to offer to get her some, right?*

Hey, someone has to watch out for you, what with the evil witches and the dragons that you normally get yourself entangled with.

[Well...she was wet, but it wasn't any worse than being swallowed by a whale. At least the fountain's water had been clean--she could manage for a while. Rosella got herself as dry as she could, and then offered the towel back to Sam.]

Oh, I can take care of myself. But everybody needs help from other people sometimes.

[She smiled to herself, her thoughts drifting to the twin brother she'd been reunited with just a day or two before.]

*Sam thought anyone who met with as many strange circumstances as Rosella apparently did should probably have someone to watch their back. Metaphorically. Taking the towel he nodded to the car.*

Alright, why don't you hop in and we'll go the my place. Ummm, you sure you don't want to get some clothes or something?

[Rosella gave the car a nervous look. Machines were a fairly uncommon thing back home, and she was more than a little wary of this one. So, to momentarily stall for time, she checked over her dress once more.]

I didn't have the chance to pack anything before I came here...again...
