[thelostseraph]

It is a strange occurrence to awaken in a place entirely unfamiliar to the memory.  And it is even stranger when one finds that the memory does not even recognize one’s own self.  I am named Ledah.  Of that I am certain.  I would say it was comforting to have that much, at least, but in truth, I find a name to be of little consequence.

You are not the first person to arrive here with wings, though you are in the minority.

[thelostseraph]

Hmm. Somehow, I'm not surprised.
And, pray tell, where exactly is here? You speak as if people drop in out of the sky on a regular basis.

[shadesofevil]

We're not sure if they drop out of the sky, but they certainly seem to. This place is called Memento Eden- its inhabitants arrive here, like yourself, without memories.

[thelostseraph]

. . . Do you speak in jest? If so, it is not a very amusing joke. I hardly know how to respond.
May I inquire as to what these people do when they arrive?

[bamf_with_wings]

Some of them lack wings.

[thelostseraph]

Interesting. Yours appear to belong to some sort of bird of prey, so we are clearly of different races. All the same, it is good to see that the people here are not entirely homogeneous.

[bamf_with_wings]

That's right.

Back in my world, we're known simply as hawks. I am Tibarn, ruler of the hawks and King of Phoenicis. I welcome you to Memento Eden, newcomer.

[thelostseraph]

. . . Thank you. Though you will understand if I say that I am not particularly glad of being in this world.

Hmm. If you are a hawk, perhaps I am sort of raven.

Are you sure you'll be able to recover on your own? The wounds sound so painful... I hope you're right about the recovery. No one should be in pain.

I think I've seen some people with wings around, but there aren't that many. It must feel good to be so unique!

[thelostseraph]

If I am in any true need of treatment, I should certainly seek it out immediately. But I believe that I shall be fine on my own. Nonetheless, I thank you for your concern.
Unique . . . ? Yes. I suppose . . . it is. Unique.

[pastoralpeach]

All right, if you say so. I'm Momo Hinamori, by the way. It's nice to meet you!

Has anyone filled you in on what kind of place this is? This is Memento Eden, and everyone here first came with no memory except their name. We can regain them over time, though, so it's not that big of an issue. I'm pretty new myself, but it's such a friendly place you shouldn't have any problems fitting in.

There's an apartment with a listing of everyone's names. Yours should be on it - you might have a roommate too! All our meals are free and so is the lodging.

[thelostseraph]

Momo Hinamori? A pleasure to make your acquaintance. I am Ledah . . .
Ahh -- You say the memories are restored over time? A curious state of affairs. But nonetheless, a profound relief. I have the distinct feeling that I have pressing business to attend to. Somewhere else.

Apartments? . . . My arrival was expected? Even more curious. I shall go inquire as soon as I am able. Thank you once again for your assistance.

Hey! Are you new?

Whoa, you have wings, too! But you're not a +Anima.

[thelostseraph]

Indeed. I have recently arrived here.

I do possess wings, but I am unaware of what a +Anima is. Perhaps you may enlighten me. I know I am named Ledah, but I have very little idea of what my species may be.

[angel_crow]

+Animas are people who have animal powers. Like me, I've got wings! *On cue, black crow wings form from two tattoos on his shoulders, covering his arms in black feathers as well*

But you're not a +Anima, so you're prolly something else.
