Voice | Open!

[rebonding]

Hey... Does anybody know if anyone's gotten to the top of the castle, yet?

[Korra's usually confident voice is uneasy. She hasn't seen Mako since before that whole deal with the monsters showing up in the city, and that's not like him at all. Maybe that'd been why he'd been saving so much money up, to pay off some higher-ranks to take him to the top. But even if that is the case, why wouldn't he tell her about it? Take her, and Asami for that matter, with him?]

Or if there's anyone else they know who's just... gone?

[She can't help but to think that something worse has happened. That he'd gotten himself mixed up with the wrong people, like he's prone to doing.]

Greetings.

[ A young woman appears in the smoke with her head high, but her mouth covered by her sleeve. She had to keep up appearances, no matter where she was—Sinbad and Judar were both watching her, after all.

that and she wants to look cool ok ]

I am Kougyoku Ren. I am from the Kou Empire, though I suppose such things do not matter now.

I am here because I would like to hear about the apparitions everyone saw last week. Surely there must be something about them that holds a tiny piece of the answer towards bringing us back home. ... Is anyone still interested in going back to their own world?

Speaking of which, I also, um. I would like to. I would. Would like to...

[ Oh no, her facade is falling apart. Uh.

"Get to know everyone else here!" "Make friends!" Just say it, Kougyoku! ]

Go to the castle and gain more experience in order to reach the top. Unfortunately, I can only venture so far alone. So... [ She looks away. ] I am looking for people with similar goals to come with me. That is all.
