...There was a man who took up residence here, but it seems he's gone elsewhere now. [Sheik's voice is soft, pensive, perhaps a little distracted. There's little noise in the background, apart from the occasional creak of a floorboard.]Most of us come from worlds with some set path, with boundaries and walls. It might not feel like it, but there's

[Saki fumbles with the communicator for a moment, considering. Then - ]

What's wrong?

[theeyeoftruth]

...I'm alright, Saki.

[So much judging silence, ninja boy.]

[...that's not promising.]

Are you well?

[ You and your big philosophic words confuse Minako, Sheik. But you're pretty even if that can't be seen through audio, Minako has a cute boy radar. And you make music. She can live with this. ]

That sounded nice.. Oh, hey, there's a piano here?

[theeyeoftruth]

Thank you, my lady. [A short, respectful bow of the head.] ...It seems there's just one. In the mansion.

[ o h.. you're.. sort of cute.. and you can play piano, does this make you an idol.. ]

N-no, thank you for playing the piano for all of us! [ A little more and there would have been a 'kya' fangirl sound after that. ]

[theeyeoftruth]

You honour me. [He smiles minutely, brief as it is.]

Mm. But I would not advise you go, my lady, at least not alone. It is quite dangerous, even without its inhabitant.

So what happens when you no longer have a direction in your own world?

[theeyeoftruth]

Not quite, my lord. That had less to do with the man, and more to do with the place itself.

[as_you_command]

Guilford. [ A swift correction. He'll take "sir" or "mister", but nothing so high class, in the way of formalities. ]

That is unfortunate, considering how much space it has available.

How is it, then, that you are able to explore it so freely?

[theeyeoftruth]

I can feel it, but I am more aware of it than a human might be. It can't creep up on me, the way it might you.

Their touch lingers here, but they do not walk its halls.

[theeyeoftruth]

I know not, my lady. I do not think they were the only creatures to influence this place.
