welcome to goldvale . intro post #1


It begins with a flash of blinding light.

No matter what they’re doing, the light is so stunning that they pause to shield their eyes. Logically, it seems like such a bright light would hurt their eyes, and yet somehow, it’s not painful at all. It’s strange, but stranger still, a moment later, the ground underneath them is gone. They’re falling, and it feels like they’re falling for a long time as their eyes adjust after that light.

Yet, it’s not long at all—they’re only falling five feet or so. But as they, and others, appear in the air, there’s a shriek of alarm.

“Beryl—Go!!”

A man’s voice shouts after the scream, and as their eyes adjust, they’ll see two blurry figures, the woman running away while the man briefly stands his ground with a dagger raised before he takes advantage of the confusion to flee as well and cover her. You, and all of the other disoriented strangers, have been left alone. There might be a few bruises from the fall, but otherwise, there are no new injuries. It’s a strange lobby, but nothing about it seems helpful to reveal where you are. Following the two figures is fruitless too, since the door at the end of that hallway is sealed shut with magic—no one will be able to pass through.

So, just where are you?

I see, I know it's usually the common magic elements- Wind, Fire, Thunder and so forth. Even dark magic. I suppose it should make sense there lies another world with none at all.

[ He wouldn't get offended or insulted at the mention of magic being stated nonexistent. Certainly it's a strange concept compared to the world he's use to, but it would take more than that to jab at him.

As it is, he is a bit familiar to different worlds with having incredible and stranger things than his own. Why would there not be a world without? ]
Well, we can't really say for certain of this place yet. [ To which his attention again focuses on the placed magic barrier blocking their only exit. ]

We all start somewhere. [ Which is more of speaking the truth, not everyone starts off where they end up being. It wouldn't be much if you couldn't practice and get better, after all. Still, he nods. ] I think you can do a lot if you put yourself to it, that's all.

[ no he still believes you've got a caring heart, at the very least! ] If you run into someone in robes by the name of Robin, know that you can definitely trust her for any help as well.

[ Well his rapier certainly stands out more so than the sheathed Falchion, still he doesn't miss the quick glance. He at least doesn't make any notion or motion to lift his hand towards it in any preparation to fight. She didn't look ready to fight him, but being in this strange place certainly has him on guard.

He does, however, blink once- twice, turning the words in his head for any quick meaning, and when he finds none he can only ask. ]
..I'm sorry?

[personal profile] dualstrike 2013-05-15 09:53 am (UTC)(link)
Those were my exact thoughts as well, being with a group of people and waking up with none close by.. It certainly is strange. [ but.. ] Perhaps they are simply somewhere else in the crowd.

My name's Rion, Princess.

[he's going to keep addressing her like that until told not to.]

Tharja as well? So, that makes at least four us then. That's good to hear.

[ it certainly is a relief to hear some of them are at least here, and safe as well. ] ..Yes, that sounds like a good idea Nowi. Even if we are no longer home, that doesn't stop us from being a Shepherd.

Are we? It seems we'll certainly be seeing more of each other then. [ It's good to make acquaintances with others in the guild, there was nothing like making bonds and friendships with more people. And if there are anything he wanted to do here- it was do that.

As it goes for her question, he answers nonchalantly. ]
Haha, more or less. I was of the Lord class.

[ Which he realizes then it more or less speaks of his royal stands. However, that was only back in his world, here he was simply another man. It's his reason for hardly caring whether he mentioned it or not. Though almost always he leaves the part out. Certainly Frederick would be one to very well allow it to be known, on a daily basis no doubt.

Chrome just did not see the reason behind it now in new lands that would have no care for his status. ]
I've done a lot of training since I was a child with a sword, so it seemed only right I would join the guild I could provide help in with my skills.

[ ok this is usually when she loses her potential friend target (read: as soon as sena opens her mouth) so they key thing here is to keep the other girl from running away. her hand snaps out to grab at noa but instead of reaching for her hand, she tries to clutch at noa's sleeve or the edge of whatever noa's wearing ]

F- Forget everything else I said. I'm going to go back to the point when you asked me if I was lost okay? [ and just in case the answer is no, she barrels on anyway ] Lost? I'm totally lost! [ but she doesn't want to start off (a potential!!!) friendship with a total lie so she hastily amends her words ] That is, I know where I am but I'm not sure... this is the guild for oracles right?

From what I know of only humans are capable of using it. [ ..Well, there are Risens but.. ] I believe just anybody can learn if they took the time, however.

Still, it sounds difficult to live somewhere where there are no healers around to help. [ even if medicine was available, healers were sometimes what made a difference between life and death. ] Guess we must all be from different worlds then. [ He's familiar with the concept, but he had almost thought he had been somewhere back on his lands.

This must be somewhere else completely then.. ]

[ Of course Chrom knows that is wrong, however he seems to understand the situation quickly and makes no retort or comment that would suggest otherwise to the man's words. Simply following him inside the guild where he knows there will be more privacy.

Once inside, he hears just as he had expected from the situation. ]
That's quite alright, there's no need for you to apologize. Rather, I'm grateful for your quick thinking there.

[ He can understand why it came down to that anyways. ] If strangers showed up out of nowhere in my lands I would be a bit weary as well, so I hardly blame them. [ He was always a peoples' person. ] .. I hope you do not mind my asking, and I mean no disrespect at all, but why is it that you do not behave the same? Words mean nothing alone if you cannot be certain where our intentions lie.

[ Perhaps an ordinary man would have taken it as it was, but Chrom was a young lord and a commander. He of course had to consider these things were he reversed in the role. Of course.. that isn't to say he wouldn't take any of the people in even if he should be a bit concerned. So perhaps he was curious to the way this man thought. ]

[ There's probably a comical touch to the blank expression he gives when he watches the other pull it up and type so quickly, and not to mention how adapted he appears to such a function! There's more to that confusion that can be seen. Generally in a way that suggests there's a lack of understanding of any of it.

Not, that he hadn't seen a demonstration of it, but someone of his standards has no known ability to being familiar with such a function.

When the screen pops up to acknowledge the message, Chrom looks on with a lightly fascinated look and more or less mumbles to himself. ]
How strange.. it's like text in a book.

[ oh, right. He address Rion then. ] That's quite alright, I couldn't help but think perhaps you wanted something from me. In any case, my name's Chrom.

Well certainly, had we been marching by a village or town. [ There's a bit of chuckle in his breath. However, they were in more dire times back home, it would be useless to find anything as convenient when the Fell Dragon was roaming the lands.]

No need to sound too surprised, Robin. I'm very capable of making friends. [ Still, a more content smile twitches on his lips, lifting at the sound of her faint laughter. Ha ha. Though he still blushes by the time she hears his comment, but he's obviously delighted to hear she feels the same. ]

Well you know I have no objections to that. It seems reasonable they would keep us in the guilds for now, though it shouldn't be a problem once the people get more use to us. [ His free hand takes hers into his, thumb gliding across the back of her hand and over knuckles and skin. His touch so light, as though he's really just holding it in his to remind himself she's really here, before he raises it to his lips to gently kiss her fingers. ] Having you here with me brings me all kinds of strength, I don't know what I'd do if I didn't have you here with me.

[ Shizuo gives a terse shrug while he casts a quick glance over his shoulder. There's nothing to say where they are beyond Not Home, so what is he supposed to tell this giant of a man? ]

Somewhere else - somewhere I don't wanna be. Where're you supposed to be?

[rion actually does fall over completely, because he's like, 5'0" and made of wispiness. he's even momentarily dazed, but when he does look up, he at least has the grace to look extremely apologetic...

though he doesn't... say anything...]

[At first, that strikes Alisa surprised a bit. But after the small consideration on her part, she have a slight hunch about it. Could it be that this person isn't...]

Pardon me for asking this out of blue, but you aren't a God Eater?

[To the point, that's Alisa.]

[ as she's helping the people in their vicinity, she's trying her best to think up a plan. she and Chrom are at a large disadvantage on their own and without any knowledge of this place, but they can't let that intimidate them. they had to move quickly, but rationally.

when they meet up again, she nods. ]
Once we're outside, we can get a lay of the land and find out where we are exactly. Did you see any exits?

[personal profile] advisable 2013-05-15 02:52 pm (UTC)(link)
[ the idea is foreign to her as well, but not as much as it would be to Madoka. the Outrealm Gate did exist after all... maybe that or something similar to it was what brought them here.

ah, but hearing a name she recognizes perks her up significantly! ]
You know Nowi? She's an ally and friend of mine - we're both in the Ylissan army.

I'm a tactician. I can fight, but my strengths lie withing the strategical part of warfare. I'm afraid I'm as new to this place as everyone else here, though...

[ sigh. being thrown into a new world with mechanics that vary from what she's used to has proved to be a challenge so far. ]

[ omfg no! she was just going to apooligize and move on, but there's no way she can just leave this guy on the ground; that would be inconsiderate and very rude.

so once she's stable, she offers him a hand. ]
I'm so sorry - I didn't even see you coming! Are you all right?

[personal profile] peachbaths 2013-05-15 03:27 pm (UTC)(link)
[ she wants to say he doesn't have to do that if he's not used to it, but she doesn't quite know how to word it. ]

Mako... Sorry again for following you. I just—I wanted to know which guild you were in. There are many people in the Warriors Guild, but... [ none of them are from the Kou Empire. But so is he, apparently. [sadcat] ]

[For a moment, the only thing he does is stare at the guy with a very bemused expression. He saw an android, people from other worlds and even a girl who claimed she could turned into a dragon but this. This is quite a whole new level of it's own. Claiming to be a country is ridiculous no matter how serious he looks.]

Explain.

[He'll give him the benefit of doubt.]

[ She considers his words. Her smile grows brighter and she nods her head. ] I'll do my best, then! I want to help people so I think I need to become stronger in order to do that. [ There's still some self-doubting in her, but the encouraging words help a bit. ]

Robin... Ah, you know Robin-san? I just met her recently! D-Do you know Nowi too?

That's terrible, I'm sorry... Fun, huh? I suppose it is in comparison to what you've been through. This one person kept calling it a game... Does it truly look like a game to you? I cannot understand it. I have never killed monsters in any of my games before—w-well, except when I pretend.
