Not as far as I know.

[glastonknight]

I see... and you have been here much longer than I, Lieutenant, and not, I imagine, idle.

[guardianed]

Not idle, no.

I've returned home three times, and none of those were on purpose.

[glastonknight]

How unfortunate...

Hence my problem. I cannot leave Princess Cornelia's side again, and yet-

[glastonprincess]

Wanting to leave so soon, Guilford?

[glastonknight]

Wherever you go, so shall I, Princess. I need a means to leave here, if you do, though I swear to you I will stay at your sister's side, if you do, until she, too, finds peace, and a means to return here if you do not and I am taken.

[glastonprincess]

I am pleased to hear that, Guilford. For now that Euphie is here, there is much to be done, much to be said.

Private;

[glastonknight]

Which information would you prefer she not know, Princess. ... Beside the obvious.

[bright_shield]

There are those who left the city while searching for a way out, whether it was by coincidence or design...? And also those who claim that they came here willingly, so it's a distinct possibility.

[glastonknight]

If only there was a way to seperate claim from fact.

[bright_shield]

It's been mostly attributed to various gods and angels, so I suppose if anyone could do it...? And there were a few cases where some seemed to know that they were needed or going back. But once they returned here -- if they did-- they were stuck again.

Nothing really dependable, I'm afraid.

[glastonknight]

Deific beings...

So it seems. However, I will continue.

[steeldame]

None that I am aware, Lord Guilford.

[glastonknight]

And you have been here for quite some time, Sir Hellsing, correct?

[steeldame]

Since April 30th, 2006 in the City's calendar.

[glastonknight]

Over two years... how troubling an idea.
