[Let's Test Driving]
[Well, you've certainly lost you way, haven't you? By one way or another, you lost your path, and only now do you find yourself back to civilization. Well, kind of.
Whereever you were, you now find yourself at a tavern. There's shelllfish decorations everywhere, hearty patrons that look like they're straight from a renassiance faire, and lobster.
Hooo boy, is there lobster, and plenty of it. In fact, there's a bunch piled up, almost buffet style, at the front counter, next to a boisterous young man in armor that almost dwarfs him, taking a bite of the steamed seafood.]
Great meal as always, Lobby, though the ale's still watered down! I thought you guys were working on gettin' something with a bit more kick to it?
[Well, there's food and drink, and maybe the guy in travelling garb and armor can tell you where the hell you ended up.]

Well, yes. Though I'm more used to the variant that's more... akin to a troublemaking spirit than anything else.
...Yes, a city. With people and businesses and sometimes, even boats and ships. ...Why?
no subject
How did I get here? I didn't think that was possible now.
no subject
[his expression softens, shaking his head]
Don't worry about it. I get the feeling were having two different conversations, anyway.
ANd.. didn't think what was possible? Travel?
no subject
To leave the castle! Last time, once we got past the forest, there was nothing out there...
no subject
[He furrows his brow at you, leaning over.]
From where do you travel? This is the first I've heard of such things.

Netsu Takeichi. I'm a Paladin, sorry we got off on the wrong foot.
no subject
Citrine, and I'm a knight! ... Or, probably still in training, but... It's okay, sir Netsu!
no subject
Ah! A kindred spirit! I may have left my training a while back, but I still feel like a novice in many ways.
It's a pleasure, Citrine.
no subject
Is that so? What does a paladin do?
no subject
A paladin is - well, it's hard to explain. We are knights, of a sort, but bound to a holy cause, devoted to a god from which our powers derive - we can sense and seek out evil spirits, in order to bring them to justice while upholding the law of the land. Should we face a demon or a frightening undead, we may channel our faith to bring it low. But we must take care to not stray from our cause - too many Paladins have become tyrants in their intent to do their duties.
no subject
That sounds really tough! You must be amazing, sir Netsu.
no subject
I don't know if I'd say that. I'm hardly perfect, I just do the best I can with the lot I've been given.
no subject
no subject
...I suppose that's true enough. Sometimes good is harder to find than you'd think.
But... you don't remember much?
no subject
Oh, yes. I lost all my memories a little bit ago and only have a few back. But, we're winning them back quickly, so I'm sure I'll remember more soon!
no subject
I'm afraid you've lost me again. Is this to do with that castle amidst nothing you spoke of?
no subject
Sorry... It's complicated, and I'm really not sure what's normal and what's not like this.
no subject
no subject
I don't mind... But, it's kind of a sad story.
no subject
...Well, I'm not a stranger to those. But only tell it if you feel comfortable.
We can share sad tales together even, if you want.
no subject
Well... Um, things happened, and it seems like the world I'm from got destroyed.
no subject
[He looks at you apologetically. WOW HE WAS NOT EXPECTING 'MY HOME EXPLODED'.]
no subject
I'm told that our souls were shattered at the same time, and that's how we lost all our memories.
no subject
Hopefully, you'll be able to recover your memories, and then find whoever did this to you and lay into them.
