It is truly fascinating how such simple statements become twisted in order to indulge the most trivial of desires.

However, since there are a number of you here, already, and those who may come still, perhaps I can be of assistance in pointing you in the correct direction of your next destination.

Where ever that may be.

[And she sounds so very hopeful.]

Perhaps you know if Caim and Dai are alright-?

[voice]

[absolute_npc]

[WHAT AN ODD FIRST QUESTION...]

What is your definition of such?

[voice]

[someplacefar]

[She hasn't heard from them in ages ok :(]

Unharmed, I suppose.

[voice]

[absolute_npc]

By each other, yes.

[hawkishly]

It would be polite to identify yourself.

[absolute_npc]

Please excuse my rudeness.

I am called LILITH.

... The network administrator, if I remember right. I'm Kaito Takamiya.

I've been chasing this idea of going to the moon for a while. What is it that we're expected to accomplish, if we do manage to get there? Other than "setting things right."

[absolute_npc]

I am.

One who is not bound to Nuadoria still risks the chance of being pulled in by her influence should they embark.

On this "moon", you will be assisting the magisters by locating and reclaiming the missing pieces of their runes.

A little bird once told me the destination was the moon.

[absolute_npc]

For some. Are you one of them?

voice;

[tridented]

It would appear so.

voice;

[absolute_npc]

I see.

Do tell, Wind Controller, which elements have you acquired?

[blonde_neophyte]

Do you know anything about a kidnapping?

[absolute_npc]

...A "kidnapping"?

Might I ask you be more specific?

[blonde_neophyte]

Well, you see, there's this person from our world--

[The penny finally drops.]

Wait a minute...so there has been more than one? Ha! I knew it! But why did you ask...?

Oh. Don't tell me you're actually in on it? Reno never trusted any of you people but I honestly didn't believe you genuinely wanted us any harm.

[absolute_npc]

Humans are quite harsh in their accusations.

If my intent was to harm any of you, I assure you it would not be a secret.

[dealswithidiots]

[Assistance? Well, better to try and get nothing, than ignore it and get screwed later on.]

The portal to other worlds.

Where is it?

[absolute_npc]

Portal?

That depends. Where might you be?

[dealswithidiots]

A link to another world.

The mountain.

[absolute_npc]

Then the path home for one such as yourself is no longer guaranteed. Where you end up once you leave this mountain depends on where you want to be. If you are unfamiliar with the world of your choice, a name or a face will suffice.

[a pause]

Or is it the moon that you wish to seek portals for?
