[ It's taken her a little while to figure out how to use the device she'd found when she'd awoken, and that was mainly by mashing buttons until she found the documents folder. Ashe had scanned them quickly, and with cursory knowledge of how to work the Dreamberry, has managed to set it to the video function. It's a little shaky (she's not sure

[Excuse him while he keysmashes. It was one thing for him and Balthier to be here... but Ashe? How the Fates were cruel.]

You're Majesty-

Are you unharmed?

[duskqueen]

[ Well, imagine her surprise! ] Basch!

I am unharmed, for the moment. What is this place? Why have you been taken as well?

[bearitproudly]

You have arrived in Somarium.

[His tone goes a bit formal, as if he was giving a report.] From the little information I have been told, Somarium is a dream world.

We are not cor certain why we have been brought here. Balthier is here as well, and he is as confused as I am.

[duskqueen]

A dream world--? That's impossible. Such things are plots in fairy tales. [ Still.. Basch had no reason to lie to her. ]

[theleadingman]

[Well. Isn't this a surprise.]

Princess? How good of you to join us.

[duskqueen]

[ Oh, she recognizes that voice. It's a long moment before he gets a response, and even then, her voice is cool and distant. ]

Balthier.

[theleadingman]

It's good to hear your voice again. I only wish the circumstances were better.

[On more than one level. They didn't exactly leave off with a handshake.]

[duskqueen]

I could say the same. [ But she won't. ] Why are you here?

[tofairypark]

You haven't been kidnapped.

[duskqueen]

Then what has happened?

[tofairypark]

You're in a dream world.

[duskqueen]

Impossible.

[needsmorefiagra]

Perhaps an astute assumption given whom you are, however, in this case it happens to be incorrect.

-Who knows? You may just end up preferring that over the alternative anyway.

[duskqueen]

I highly doubt it.

[needsmorefiagra]

Is it not better to be a captive in your own world than to be trapped in another world?

Better the devil you know.

[duskqueen]

Better the devil I not need know.

[stoicsoldier]

You were not taken, but unfortunately you won't be able to return to your home.

[duskqueen]

You will have to forgive me if I find that difficult to believe.

[stoicsoldier]

It's understandable. I couldn't believe it when I first arrived.

However, it is a fact that you will eventually have to get used to.
