Adam did not move when he woke up. Before he opened his eyes he knew that there was something different about the area around him. When he did the first thing he saw was the curved metal wall surrounding him. This was alarming on its own he still did not move. He then became aware of some things laid on his chest. Cautiously he lifted a hand and tested the curved metal wall. He saw that it opened without difficulty. Slowly swinging his feet over Adam sat up and looked around. This was most definitely not anywhere he recognized. He gathered the things that had been sitting on his chest, figuring they would probably be useful, and put his feet down. As he did water soaked into his shoes making his socks squish. Adam made a face at the unpleasant sensation. Everything he had woken up with in hand, Adam quietly made to way out of The Bay.

[ Though he has never owned one, Adam knows how to use a phone. When the video starts it is a brown-haired teenage boy looking pensively at the camera. ]

Hello? I'm Adam Parrish an' I'm not real sure what's goin' on.

[ Distress has allowed his rural Virginia accent to show through. ]

I'm gettin' the "how" on folks showin' up here, but what I can't figure is the "why"? I mean there's gotta be an over-arching purpose, folks don't just get kidnapped for no reason.

[ His lips thin and he sighs then. While this is probably a question that gets asked a lot, Adam wants to hear the answers for himself. He still looks worried and wary. ]

So how big is this place? An' what does "the best god" mean? Are there a lot of 'em here?

[ He's all questions at the moment, but he has worked a few things out for himself. Right now he leaves it there, turning polite, instead. ]

Thank you to anybody that does reply. I will appreciate it.

[Lan fan comes on the screen looking determined--although possibly a bit perturbed as well (is this thing really working?)]

First and foremost, I am in search of an automail engineer. Does this... "Genessia" even have automail?

[From the technology she's seen it would certainly suggest it--or at least something equivalent.]

[She opens her mouth to say something else--but before she is able to a very loud and long sound is heard--unmistakably her stomach growling. Her eyes go wide for a moment before she ducks her head and averts her eyes to the side, face turning beat red.]

And where is a cheap place to get food...?



[Action//Genessia]

From what she gathered in the information available she felt lucky that she had at least arrived in this place clothed. If the gods or whatever it was that controlled this place had plucked her up a day sooner she would have been wandering around in nothing but her pants and bandages. The clothing she was wearing was not comfortable for her, at least not out in the open outside of the Yao palace. She was dressed in a simple black changpao and a trench coat, the left sleeve flapping at her side. Really the issue was her face being completely exposed. She was so used to being masked that being laid open like this was unnerving. The one benefit with her current garb was the fact that she didn't draw attention to herself.

With some effort she had talked herself out of any acrobatics to keep to the shadows or the roofs and out of sight--of course the buildings she came upon were either too spread out or too tall for that to really work anyway--and she really wasn't recovered yet. Doctor Knox had said a minimum of four to eight weeks for the amputation to fully heal. It hadn't even been a complete week yet. She probably shouldn't have been walking around as she was, but her paranoia as a retainer despite not having her charge wouldn't let her rest until she'd explored at least the immediate area around the communal space she was being provided with.

Still, she was weak and several times she felt herself swooning a bit from light-headedness and pain, stumbling only to catch herself on the nearest upright surface.

[ Hannah is sitting in her room, having clearly just settled in after finding herself in The Bay. She looks more than a little ticked off, but is trying to hide it. She's failing. ]

Okay great so this isn't as truly awful as it could be, don't get me wrong, I get that but this whole - whackadoodle thing, I mean. The fuck am I supposed to do now?

[ She glances down, thumbing through the pamphlet and playing with the necklace. Taking a deep breath, she looks back up at the camera. ] So this is really, like...a permanent thing, eh? I'm just...here. For good.


[ The young woman sighs, shaking her head. She bites her lip in thought, gazing into the middle distance for a quick moment. ] Okay then. Fine. I can play this game. So, who all's hiring?
