Just where is this? I woke up in the middle of a jungle (not an unusual occurance after a party like the one last night, let me tell you), but when I found my way back to the beach, the Claudia had gone. Actually, I think she's right where I left her. I have a feeling that I'm the one that's gone somewhere. The sky seems to have vanished, I'm

As Goemon-dono has told you, this is Grand line, sir.

Many people from different universes and worlds end up here... we don't really know why.

[roguegunman]

Hmm, so there are more worlds than just Arcadia and this one, then? This should be interesting.

[dragonaya]

Yes. There are thousands as far as we know.

[roguegunman]

That really is something.

I take it you're from one of these other worlds, Miss?

[garotamalandro]

Well, below the sky there is earth, and oceans, and all that stuff. So probably it is.

[roguegunman]

I look forward to exploring this place further, a whole world below the sky!

[garotamalandro]

Ya never been to land?

[roguegunman]

All of our continents float in the sky. But if by land you mean the world beneath the sky, then no, this would be my first time.

[captain_dame]

T-There's no sky where you are?!

[roguegunman]

Oh, there's sky all right. Actually, we live in islands that float in the sky. I've never seen so much water before, though.

[captain_dame]

Then what did you mean by 'vanished'?

Well... this place is mostly ocean with a few islands here and there.

[roguegunman]

Ah, my apologies. I should have chosen my words more carefully. I meant that the skies I know have gone, that my world had vanished.

I'm going to have to learn how to get around on the ocean, then. Should be interesting!

[vocabulous]

It happens a lot; I came here from a different world too. Is Claudia your ship? I'm afraid we don't have a very good one yet, but if you need someone to come pick you up, I'd be glad to!

[roguegunman]

You too? There do seem to be a lot of us, don't there? Yes, Claudia's my ship, although I'm not sure that she'd be of much use here.

Thanks for the offer, but Gokudera already offered to pick me up. I have to say, though, I wouldn't be averse to travelling with you.

[vocabulous]

I've met a lot, yeah! Why not?

Oh, good! Gokudera-san can be a little rough, but he's nice. I've talked to lots of people on his crew.

[roguegunman]

Well back in my world, we live in islands floating in the sky. So Claudia is powered by propellors and the wind, and sails through the sky; I'm not sure if she'd adapt well to sailing on the water.

He seems like a good lad. He's given me a bit of information on sky islands in this world, too.

[black_hat_cat]

Welcome to the Grand Line, Mr. Gilder.

[roguegunman]

Thanks for the welcome. You sound like you know your way around here.

[black_hat_cat]

I'm a native. Rob Lucci. What was your occupation in your home world, if you don't mind me asking?

[roguegunman]

Ah, you're the first native I've spoken to. It's good to meet you.

My occupation? Well, I'm not sure how receptive folks here will be to it, but I might as well be honest from the outset. I'm a pirate, a Blue Rogue.
