I do not care to speak unnecessarily. Unfortunate that this device's creator would disagree.

If I must transmit something, let it be an inquiry: to those who have left the city and returned, how were you affected by the passage of time? Were you returned to the instant from which you were taken, or does time elapsed in Discedo apply to our own '

Hm...An interesting thing to think about. I certainly hope that not too much time has passed.

[reawakens]

Likewise. I've a fair bit of business to attend to as-is; I can't imagine two months' neglect making the task any easier.

[skybound_love]

We have a lot of enemies, so I worry.

[reawakens]

Oh?

For me, it was as if no time at all had passed. I'd managed to convince myself the whole thing was a bad dream until I found myself back again.

I see. Your memories of this place remained, then? What of possessions acquired within the city?

[modest_as_me]

Yes, though it took a year for me to be brought back...things are a little fuzzy because of how much time has passed. And as for my things, no one took them while I was gone. Pretty lucky if you ask me.

'Lucky' indeed.

My apologies for your misfortune; to return to this place after supposed escape must be terribly upsetting.

It's the instant you're taken from. One of our zetta ... beloved scientists answered that some time back.

.. I see. This ordeal may not prove as troubling as I'd initially assumed.

I don't suppose they were so kind as to clarify anything else?

[whatthefactor]

Hm. Merely a detour.

Nothing significant.

[reawakens]

A detour would imply lost time.

The information is appreciated.

[prodigal_axe]

Seems like people don't always return from the same timeframe, if they come back at all.

Hell if I know why.

[reawakens]

.. Unfortunate.

[prodigal_axe]

It complicates things.

It was like no time passed at all. I was right back where I was the second I left.

I really hoped the whole thing was a fucked up dream.

It would be unwise to rule out the possibility completely.
