I knew everyone here would lose their minds, eventually. I just assumed that it would be a natural result of their time here and not some scheme cooked up by the Malnosso. It's certainly interesting, but a bit more anarchic than their previous endeavors. I wonder what they're studying, this time...? If the relationships built here will last even ( Read more... )

Welcome to Luceti, newbies! Despite what others might tell you, the Malnosso aren't your biggest concern -- I'll leave it to you to decide what that may be. There's a tea shop, a bakery, a bar... don't worry, before you know it you'll be feeling comfortably domestic.

It won't be much longer, I think, before the entropy moves in completely. This place is filled with fragile minds and fragile hearts; eventually, everyone will lose one or the other. Perhaps some of them will prove my prediction wrong -- that's fine, I'm not obssessed with being right. I have been told, ( Read more... )

So, have you given into a state of empty-minded ( Read more... )

So, which way is it to this not-so-secret base of the Malnosso's...? I'm tired of waiting for them to come to me, figure I might as well try knocking on their front door. Aros? You wanna come along?

It's funny to see everyone running around like decapitated chickens just because they woke up with the wrong naughty bits. Why so upset? At least you're still all the same on the inside, right? Your body isn't what makes you a person. Some of you would do well to remember that.
