[A strange, golden eyed creature peers into the device. His enormous silver wings are spread out behind him.

His rowan crown is also lopsided, sliding halfway down one side of his head. He doesn't seem to notice, though he does glance around curiously at his surroundings.]

This isn't Heaven or Earth. Is it a dream? Or... have my enemies brought me here?

If you are, come out so I can kill you. You are keeping me from something important.

[His tone and smile remains gentle even while speaking those words.]

Can anyone hear me? Masumi?

Yeah, you're right. It's not Heaven or Earth.

[ 'sup. Have a girl looking at the screen rather casually, idly chewing on some beef jerky. ]

Welcome to fairy land. Guess you're the newest arrival.. Although I doubt killing 'em will help anything in particular.

[At first Rubi turns his head to the side with a puzzled look at the girl. Then he turns the communicator upside down. Why? Who knows, he's just strange. Then he flips it over again.]

Fairy Land. I thought it was a demon realm, but it doesn't feel like one.

...Is that so? Are they immortal?

[ She just watches, some expression wavering between curiosity and boredom on her face. ]

Nah, no demons here. Although fairies are the next best alternative, I guess. And I dunno about the immortal part - I haven't tried actually killing one yet.

If that is true, my enemies didn't follow me here...

[He looks slightly disappointed, but shrugs it off.]

Are fairies also dangerous to humankind?

[ video ]

[selfished]

Pretty much. It ranges from pranks to things wanting to eat you for dinner.

You better be able to defend yourself here, if you know what I mean.

[protectsfools.livejournal.com]

I'm afraid this isn't a dream.

[trashheap-angel.livejournal.com]

Then... what is it? How did I come to be here?

[protectsfools.livejournal.com]

Please read the information found here (http://akingmuststand.livejournal.com/3988.html#cutid1). It should be helpful in answering some of your questions.

[trashheap-angel.livejournal.com]

I see...

[It takes him a few moments to read over it, and he's frowning over certain parts concerning 'enemies.'

But it hardly matters. None of them seem to be here.]

Is it true that iron repels the fairies?

[protectsfools.livejournal.com]

It is. I've taken the time to verify this myself.

[seeyourwaves.livejournal.com]

They could be enemies, who knows.

[trashheap-angel.livejournal.com]

If they revealed themselves to me, I would know.

Who are 'they?'

[seeyourwaves.livejournal.com]

The question isn't always the answer.

[trashheap-angel.livejournal.com]

Oh? But there must be an answer.

[seeyourwaves.livejournal.com]

Perhaps we'll learn later in the future.

Have someone already told you about this place?

[toplay-thefool.livejournal.com]

I doubt it was your enemies, though some of the fae are definitely a threat.

We can hear you, though.

[trashheap-angel.livejournal.com]

If they are the natural enemy of humans, I can consider them my enemy.

[And sounding as though he'd be happy to do so.]

Who are you?

[toplay-thefool.livejournal.com]

Souji Seta. I’ve been stuck here for a while.

Many of the fae have shown themselves to be hostile to us, but not all. It can be… difficult to tell.

[trashheap-angel.livejournal.com]

...My name is Rubi.

[A small hesitation, as if he meant to say something more after that.]

What can their purpose be... If they don't wish to kill you, perhaps they want to use you.

[toplay-thefool.livejournal.com]

It's good to meet you, Rubi.

[He notes that moment of quiet, but doesn't bring it up. Pressing more information from new arrivals doesn't seem like a wise course of action.]

I'm sure that there are some that do. Others have pretty benevolent intentions.

[You seem awfully calm for talking about killing people. She sounds gentle, mild - testing the waters.]

We are not your enemies, stranger. We have been trapped here as you have.

audio

[trashheap-angel.livejournal.com]

Is it so?

[He still sounds gentle and curious at the voice, as he is with the others he's spoken to so far.]

Are you all humans, brought from the realm I came from? Or from somewhere else?

audio

[unholy-rebirth.livejournal.com]

We are neither all human nor all from your world. I would first need to know which world we speak of to tell you more.

audio

[trashheap-angel.livejournal.com]

I see... I came here from a human realm, one they call Earth.

audio

[unholy-rebirth.livejournal.com]

Then there are many from your realm here. We....

[Her calmness trails off along with her voice for a moment. She's just remembering how Thanatos used to keep track of everyone so you could tell immediately if your friends were here. She misses Thanatos. :( ]

...what is your name? Perhaps there are others you know here. I am called Thereth.
