[ The click of the device turning on, picking up on the light huffing of breath, uneven as if one has just outrun something...you know, like a monster or a few.

And then, she speaks under her breath --- away from the device...] ...ought to have kept the armor on after all. Ow. For goodness' sake

Alice?

Alice!! Are you ok?

You sound exhausted...what happened? Are you hurt? Did something happen?

[ a pause as she places the voice ]

[the_alice]

Hanna, right? Right, I think that's it.

I'm a bit tired. And [ a pause again, this time with an uncomfortable exhale ] ...well, yes. Something did happen. Tell me, do you know if it's very normal for creatures to simply attack passerby out of nowhere----without being antagonized first?

I didn't see mention of that in the guide...

[manofgnee]

...

No, that's normal. That's wrong. Very, very wrong.

Ok, tell me exactly what happened, and a description of the thing that attacked you.

Evaporating skills.

[anti_buttons]

Never mind. Let me guess. There were monsters?

[the_alice]

Yes.

[the_alice]

And yes again. I don't understand. Are attacks here just a way of things?

[idomore]

Would that be like teleportation?

[the_alice]

Telewhat?

[idomore]

Teleportation.

[fff explanations] Moving from one place to another in an instant. No walking or anything.

Oh.

[ LOOK SHUT UP IT WAS COINED IN LIKE 19something... 8C ]

[playstheblues]

Why do you need someone with evaporating skills?

[the_alice]

Well, it was just the first thing that occurred to me to be honest, as the last time something like this happened, it was what was first offered to me.

[playstheblues]

Does this sort of thing happen frequently?

[the_alice]

Only once, and I don't think it knew any better. These creatures seemed worse.
