[Upon the screen is the ever-so familiar Bay, accompanied by the voice of a young girl...] "...By these instructions, this should be working..."

[The camera shifts and brings into view a blonde, blue-eyed child who is dressed to belong to high society. Like any child would, she looks quite distressed.]

"...If any can hear me, I am looking for any one friendly who can help me find my friends... I do not know where I am or how I arrived here, but I am in a cave of sorts... If anyone is out there, please help me."

[The device is lowered slightly, but remains on with her face still partially in view. The movement of the background suggests she is pacing around nervously now.]

[Fai appears on the screen. Hello blond haired blue eyes person, meet another blue eyes blonde haired person who just looks a little more than happy with a rather wide grin.]

Just like all of us, no matter how old, young, noble or not find out way to what we call the Bay. The Bay is where everyone first arrives. From there usually people go and find a place t live or a job, but since you look so young there is a place that might take you in since it's unknown how long we'll be here for.

[This gentleman that Anastasia sees on her screen is rather strange to her, but she can't help but find his cheerful demeanor a bit infectious, helping her to be less hesitant.]

"I keep hearing 'we all.' Assuming you, too, are part of 'we all,' exactly how many others are there? That is, if I may ask, Sir."

Numbers is always very hard to determine when one considers the new arrivals and those that leave us. But there are a food ten or more of us in the same situation at least.

[he didn't feel the need to try and give an exact number though.]

[The number was satisfactory. But the mention of new arrivals makes her assume this is a regular thing, and she doesn't want to know what he means by "those that leave us."]

"I have so many questions, Sir. However, I do not want to press your time..."

[Or maybe she's starting to fear the answers over one little phrase?]

I have plenty of time really.

[Okay that might be a tiny lie, sort of. But right now he wasn't needed to bake anything just yet though.]

No one should be afraid to ask questions.

[The was only one question on her mind, and she was definitely too scared to ask for the answers. Anastasia was hesitating longer than usual, trying to find relevant questions to ask.]

"Um... May I ask for your name, Sir?"

Ah, I should have introduced myself before.

[A soft smile forms on his lips.]

My name is Fai D. Flourite. I've been in this world for... a year now. I hope that helps you in knowing that I might know a bit.

"It is nice to speak with you, Mr. Flourite." [She habitually bows slightly, but through the eye of the camera, it doesn't look like much.] "My name is Anastasia."

[She peered around the Bay for a moment before returning to the device.]

"Mr. Flourite? Do you have any advice for me?"

It's nice to speak to you as well Anastasia. That is such a pretty name.

[Advice? That was an odd one to ask. What advice was what sprung to mind though.]

Depends on what kind of advice you want.

[Anastasia ever-so lightly blushed. She had been called many nice things before to a point of being indifferent to them, but her name was never complimented before. She couldn't linger on that for long.]

"Advice...for... ...Well, anything, really. Anything to help me along while I look for a way home."

Well, for one it's best to not expect to go home any time soon. People are looking for a way, but it's not something that is going to happen every night. However, there are times when people do go home unexpectedly, but we are still unsure how that happens.

[Well it was always a good start advice wise.]

[At least she has some bit of hope. But she can't help but wonder about all she was taken away from.]

"Thank you, Mr. Flourite. Then, I suppose I should rephrase my question... Do you have any advice to help me along during my stay in this...world, I presume?"

I can happily answer that. Firstly you can choose to live by yourself or with people who are in the same situation. There are people who are more than willing to do that.

Second one would be if you want to live alone a job is always a good idea. Do something you are good at, or try something new.

Mr. Flourite, I do not believe I am of age to live alone, or have a job.

[Given Anastasia's attire, it's quite possible she did have something of a job and would not be permitted to live alone. But then again, there's a equal chance she is just spoiled.]

You'd be surprised at kids who work here. I know there are some around, but if you don't want to do either there is a home for children like yourself where you can stay. It's all free as far as I am aware. You'd have to ask the one who opened it though I assume.

"I think...first and foremost, I need a place to stay."

[She pauses for a moment...]

"So, Mr. Flourite? May I ask for you to escort me to this home for children?"

That is always the best first step. Then afterwards the world is ones oyster.

[He looks behind himself for a moment. He has to check that things were going smoothly at work before he could actually do anything.]

If no one else does, I'll be happy to.

"I understand. I will remain in contact then, Mr. Flourite. Thank you for speaking with me."

[With very little understanding of how the device works, she leaves it turned on...]
