( WELCOME BACK, TRAVELERS. )



There's nothing but the clatter of train tracks, and the odd feeling of almost floating.

When you wake, it's hard to tell exactly what it is that you're missing - only that you are. There are pieces that aren't quite right, even if you're not sure where those pieces would normally be. Pieces of what, exactly....? Well, if you had to put a word to it, it would be - yourself, probably. Or did you get something back recently?

The place you've found yourself in is strange, certainly. It's probably worth exploring a bit. Though it just as easily seems that the only form of welcome or explanation that you have, comes from nothing more than a slab of marble. It might've changed since the last time you saw it.

You might have changed since the last time you saw yourself too - perhaps with a new emblem on your clothes, or a portrait on your skin.

There's no need to fret that much though. You've already gone through the ordeal once, and you might be able to see results from it. Even so, it's best that you don't get too comfortable, because there is still the unshakeable feeling:

There's still much more ahead of you.

O-oh--

[Right. Those. He's not used to needing to explain, and his brow furrows uncertainly for a few moments before he finally manages:]

I was... imprisoned, before. Normal tools won't break them, so...

[So he just lives like this, basically, it's fine.]

Imprisoned for what?

[personal profile] deadened 2020-01-16 02:21 am (UTC)(link)
For... for someone's death.

[Technically.]

You're being vague.

[ Which she doesn't sound pleased about, but... ]

... But I suppose you don't owe me your story.

It's-- I haven't really needed to explain it before.

[A little shake of his head, there. Less vague. He can do that.]

It wasn't intentional, but I... still killed someone, so... I-I turned myself in for it. That's... that's why.

Tragic accidents happen.

Not everyone would be honorable enough to turn themselves in. That's a show of good character, at least.

Not everyone would... would be kind enough to think that charitably of something like that.

[A brief shake of his head, there, but- he gives her a grateful little smile, too. Why are people here being so nice-- but, well. It's not an unwelcome change.]

[ She returns the smile, a bit tentative. ]

I've just... Known people in similar situations, that's all.

[personal profile] deadened 2020-01-17 03:05 am (UTC)(link)
Oh... I'm sorry.

[There's a slight bow of his head, there, before he lifts it again.]

Th-that it was something they had to go through, I mean.

[personal profile] lightmage 2020-01-18 12:16 am (UTC)(link)
Yes, well...

[ Hrm. She looks away for a moment. ]

Anyway, what's your name? My name is Luxanna Crownguard.
