[Video] - 1st Entry

[silent_princess]

[The smart phone opens to the picture of a blonde-haired woman, dressed in a uniform of azure and royalty, looking at the screen which captures her image with a concerned and worrisome expression. Her eyes are fresh with tears, rudely awoken and confused at her new surroundings, though the video does little to explain such affairs before she speaks.]

It is almost similar to the Sheikah Slate.. Hello? I am unsure if this tool is in working order so I hope this message is received by some one near by. My name is Zelda, Princess and daughter of the Royal Family of Hyrule. The provided tomes I've discovered here explain a great deal, but they do not alleviate any such concerns I have for my family and friends.

I am uncertain if there is any one capable, but some assistance would be appreciated. In the meantime, while I wait here before these archways, I will continue to read and study and observe what I can. What I am certain of is that I am not the first to arrive here, and I am also sure my requests are more than likely routine for whoever is listening.

[She lowers her head, turning a palm up to her eyes to wipe away the remnants of her frustration and sadness.]

I have many questions that I would prefer to impose upon another rather than rely on text, if any one is willing. Please, let this message reach some one. Again, my name is Zelda, and I am standing before a series of archways. If there is any one listening, please hear my call.

[On her final plea the feed ends.]

[She crawled along the ground, knees and hands keeping her upright as she poured over the different pamphlets and brochures that had been provided. To any and all who arrive to find her, the young Princess looks more like a studious traveler than a lost cause. She speaks to herself, muttering different locations and terms that she picks from the different pieces of text, as if reciting them assists in her memorizing the observations she makes.]

Schnee.. Genessia.. A smart phone? How extraordinary. And these pendents? What is it that allows for the functionality with these gateways? Is it some form of magic, or an ancient piece of technology? Peculiar, very peculiar.

[Zelda is greeted with what seems to be a talking metal man. He's not the most reassuring person out there but she looks so lost that he can't but feel sorry for her.]

Hello, Princess Zelda, my name is K-2SO. Your family and friends should be exactly where they were before you awoke up here. This is a different world than your own, as the hologram might have informed you already, and time stops in your universe while you are here.

Re: Video

[silent_princess]

[It takes the perplexed Princess a moment to speak, caught off guard by the appearance of what seems to be a well-guarded Knight in layers of armor.]

Kay-Two-Ess-Oh? A pleasure to meet you, Sir Knight. I do thank you for the response, but may I ask how it is that such a thing is possible? How is it that I have come to this place, and how is time so easily manipulated?

[No easy answers, she's sure of that, but it would be a mistake for her to not ask, of course. She swallows hard, looking at the Metallic Man, unsure of whether or not she's speaking with a man or a suit of iron.]

[Kay is used to getting surprised looks so he waits until she's ready to speak. Being compared to a knight is a novelty, though.]

Yes. You can call me Kaytoo, it might be easier. Knight? Me?...You are welcome. and you can ask as much as you want, I'll answer to the best of my ability. This world exist outside realities and timelines, it brings here people from all sort of places but we are not sure why or how it happens. [Not the most helpful answer but is all he's got from now.]

There are five different cities, each one with their own culture, technology, and laws. Around them all, there are barriers that stop us from leaving but also prevent monsters and other bad things from getting inside. That side, this world isn't so bad.

(Passing the Bay was a common enough occurrence for Dorian on the way to Everglade, and work as it so stood. He hadn't happened upon a newcomer thus far though, and this one was curious. The mage, his staff lashed to his back rather than used as a walking stick, watched her from a few yards away at first, listening to her muttering to herself before approaching, the sun glinting on the various pieces of metal and polished stone sewn into his clothing.)

Rather smart, yes, and a bit of both, really, though I'd hardly call the technology ancient. Peculiarity, as it were, is often in the eye of the beholder.

(He places a hand over his heart and bows slightly at the shoulders in greeting.)

I am Dorian of House Pavus. A pleasure to make your acquaintance. I take it you're new here? That or you really choose strange locations in which to study.

Re: action;

[silent_princess]

[The sudden utterance of words that weren't her own catches the Princess by surprise. She lightly jumps, enough to show that she's startled but certainly not enough to show she's unaware. She rises to her feet, brushing herself off as she puts a hand to the base of her throat, letting out a long sigh of air.]

Forgive me, I was so taken in by these odd scripts that I did not notice any one else.

[Her cheeks turn to the shade of a bright, red radish, some shame in not properly knowing she had company while she was crawling along the ground like a child.]

The pleasure is mine, really. I am Zelda, daughter to the Royal Family of Hyrule. I- [She stutters for a moment, looking back and forth before her lips turn into a rather immature pout of sorts.] I suppose I am rather obvious, what with all of these different parchments strewn about. Though, it is safe to assume that you are not a stranger to this world?

action;

[tevinteraltus]

Is that right? (He'll not make assumptions, of course. Not all royals are selected by birth. It's very possible her parents being royalty does not, in fact, make her the Princess of this Hyrule.) I'm afraid you're rather far from home, Your Grace, but it isn't all bad, I assure you.

(He rolls a shoulder in a shrug before nodding.)

It's familiar enough to me to answer a few simpler questions. For instance, I could show you the way to your temporary housing. It...leaves so much to be desired it's painful, but it will suffice for the first month.

(He pulls the hem of his robes up before kneeling at her scattered paperwork, beginning to collect the brochures.)

It's refreshing to see another so keen on learning what they can of this place, by the way. Far too many arrive with only an interest in bemoaning their fates. Irritating really.

[She's met with an almost obnoxious red suit. Although he didn't have the answers she seeks, he did press the reply button before he could change his mind. His lips pressed into a thin line briefly.]

Have you tried he library?

Re: [Video]

[silent_princess]

[The sudden appearance of the crimson-colored suit catches her by surprise, having only ever seen such attire on those that sought to topple both her Kingdom but the trusted tribe of the Sheikah. There is reluctance before her response, a calculated pause that subdues her excitement at the notion of a library for her to peruse and plot through.]

A library, you say? [She speaks with lips quivering, a pout coming to them as she returns the question with a query of her own.] Do you not think it rude to speak to a lady without giving a proper introduction first? To whom might I be speaking with? I have given my name. Is there some reason as to why you have not given yours?

[Part of her doesn't wish to be so cold so quickly, but it is hard to discern whether or not the gentleman is in fact a member of the Yiga Clan, even if the realm she now presides in is not her own.]

[Video]

[armofgod]

Hm.

[There is a pause as a hand moved idly to his chin to give apparent serious thought to her question. Manners he had not been schooled in, but he did have enough training to know that a Princess was a higher rank than his.

However, he finally parted his lips for a small grin.]

Not at all, but it's Michio. My rank doesn't mean anything here, and I thought more about your problem than greetings.

[His mirth reflected in his speech, he lifted his head to gaze in a direction silently for a few seconds before it was broken by a grumble and his gaze fell back to the screen.]

Anyway, yes there's a library here.

[dammit_imadoctor]

Well, your highness, you're definitely not the only one here who's had questions. [His tone isn't exactly gentle, and there's a hint of disbelief when he uses the title, without any outright disrespect meant.]

I'm sure you're already being set upon as I speak. Doctor Leonard McCoy, if you've got any other questions I can try to answer them. Haven't been here long but I think I've gotten most of the spiel.

Re: Video

[silent_princess]

A doctor, you say?

[Her idea of what sort of person a doctor might be is unfortunately skewed due to the two she had come to know. It would be a poor assumption on her part to think that his McCoy gentleman was anything like them.. and already she could tell he was a lot less eccentric.]

Spiel? Ah- tell me, Doctor McCoy, what is it you are a doctor of? Though I suppose a more important question would be "what should I do now?"

Re: Video

[dammit_imadoctor]

[McCoy raises an eyebrow at the question, like it should have been obvious.]

Medicine, but if that's not what you were asking I was with Starfleet most recently. But you probably don't know what that is.

My advice? Go to the free housing and start looking in the classifieds. You've got a month before your money runs out, and before that happens you should figure out what work you can do.

[shy_mage]

[It was a little much for him to take everything in, especially words he didn't know. But he got one thing: she was new. Taking a deep breath, he turned on his video and did his best to try and speak clearly.]

I-I could try to answer questions.

Re: [Video]

[silent_princess]

[Zelda brings the video back to her vision, looking at the blonde-haired individual with a perplexing gaze befitting a woman in her position.]

I'm not quite sure I understand much of how this world works. If I am reading things correctly, there are professions and housing arrangements for all those brought here? Am I correct in reading that, Sir..? Forgive me, I did not ask your name. To whom am I speaking with?

[Video]

[shy_mage]

S-Sorry! I'm Bracken.

I... I think there's s-some sort of free housing. I've never seen it. [It didn't exist when he first arrived, and he wasn't the best at getting updated.] B-But... if you want to stay in F-Fayren, the Marsh Woodsman is nice and cheap, o-or you could stay here. I wouldn't mind.

[Video]

[youfool]

[Golly, a real-live princess! He'll take her at face value. Time to play the gallant knight in shining armor. But instead of armor it'll be clothes not even medieval aesthetic can justify.]

Good morning, Zelda! Goodness, do I have a young woman in mind that would be overjoyed to meet you!

Ah, but you wanted some assistance first. I'd be glad to help where I can. Shall we meet in person?

Re: [Video]

[silent_princess]

A young woman?

[The statement catches her before noticing the strange garb the unfamiliar person wears. She cannot help but stare despite her years of finishing and manners being taught to her. The Princess catches herself, bringing a hand to her lips as she bows her head in greeting.]

Yes, a face-to-face interaction would be much preferred. Admittedly, speaking this way leaves me rather uneasy and I find being in the company of others allows me greater ease, if I am allowed to make such a request, of course. To whom might I be meeting with?

Re: [Video]

[youfool]

Yes: Princess Anastasia. She's very fond of others in her caste. Oh! Apologies; suppose I should call you "Princess Zelda" too. Forgive my lack of breeding.

[He's mildly joking; meeting people so polite inspired him to something like mimicry]

Certainly! You're at the Bay, correct? Haven't gotten your hems too wet, I hope. Simply stay where you are and I'll be right over. Ah, and I'm Ted. I'll be just a few minutes!

[He's not kidding. In just ten he'd arrive with a towel; darn Bay and its shallow pools.]

[captain_by_the_book]

[ That's a very distressed young woman, and though Cassian doubts he is going to be any good comforting her, it's hard to completely ignore the call. ]

I can provide information, Your Highness.

Re: video

[silent_princess]

["Your highness"? Well, this was certainly off to a good start, wasn't it? The young woman clears her throat, looking into the device as best she can without feeling both self-conscious or awkward.]

Thank you, Sir. To whom might I be speaking with? Are you a member of this realm's royal guard? Perhaps you're a dignitary with a nearby Kingdom? I do have quite a number of questions but I don't wish to impose too much on any one if I can help it.

action;

[mrhero]

[ Since her back is to him, she probably misses the large smile and overly exaggerated sigh of relief that follows it. And the amusement.

He found the princess and the thing he catches her doing first is crawling around on the floor. Of course she is.

He hadn't even listened to the message she left completely before he had already gone seeking her out. The video had provided enough of a picture for him to figure out the location just fine without her saying so. There was no waiting. No hesitation. Just going there. It's his job and even if it hadn't been, this is someone actually knows. It's someone far more familiar than anyone else in his life, which tends to be a blank slate these days.

It's also someone who is currently in a relatively safe spot. The safety part is important. She doesn't look injured. Hurt. Tired. All good signs. Safe and simply crawling on the floor muttering to herself about the fascinating new land she's in. Making calculations in her head. Never change. If anyone is going to know how this place works, it's her.

He buries most of his emotions away out of habit before he moves, kneeling down to the ground and silently inching up next to her. Sneaking up to look at her sprawled out pamphlets and brochures. ]

Whatcha doin'?

Re: action;

[silent_princess]

[It had become so second nature to her that she felt as if she were back in Hyrule, crawling about on all fours and pouring over information while Link had been close by. His question does not go unanswered, though she's so lost in her work that she forgets her situation, thinking herself to be once more on the road in search of knowledge and history.]

Trying to get my bearings as best as I can.. This is all too strange. I don't think we've anything quite to this scale near the Kingdom. If these sheets of parchment are accurate, I cannot imagine how large and vast these cities must be.

[It is only when she sits upright and turns to face him that she finally takes notice of her guest. Her face goes wide with expression, a mix of relief and confusion as she gasps loudly at the familiar knight kneeling beside her. Perhaps it was something more, but for whatever reason the Princess opens her arms wide and brings the Chosen Hero into a tight embrace.]

Link! Wh-What are you doing here?! You're revived?!

[She backs away, holding him by the upper arms so that she can have a better look at him. It's only then that her expression changes, a childish pout coming to her lips as she becomes agitated and annoyed.]

Don't act so casual with me! Do you not know of the serious trouble we're in here? Hmph-! That's quite like you, isn't it? Always without worry. And just where did you come from? Not so much as a message on this strange device to let me know you were safe?

Action;

[innocent_royal]

[As she often does, Anastasia had wandered off again to enjoy what little freedom she has left before the summer sets in. This time, spending her time in Genessia in her usual fancy-casual blue and white dress and carrying a parasol with a trusty ice blue-colored dog-like creature beside her.

As Anastasia passed by on her stroll, she noticed the young woman meticulously studying the pamphlets and other little goodies she herself remembers finding when she first arrived. The young girl approached, in doing so, the air around them would steadily turn chilly from the influence of her pet.

Anastasia would twirl her parasol meekly as she thought about what to say.]

Pardon me. Hello? Are you a new arrival?

Re: Action;

[silent_princess]

[The sudden kiss of colder air doesn't alarm her to the presence of strangers, but the effect is still met as expected. Sitting on her heels, the Princess sets herself upright as arms cross so that the warmth of hands might bring reprieve to the sudden chill. It is then that she turns to the voice, her eyes widening in short surprise as she did not know that she had company whilst looking so un-ladylike upon the ground.]

Oh dear-!

[Hastily the Princess stands, brushing herself off and clasping her hands before her waist. The blue-garbed woman bows slowly, dipping her head and maintaining her trained posture while offering a response in return to the young woman's inquiry.]

Forgive me, I was quite lost in reading. I am indeed new here, and my name is Zelda.

[Slowly she rises, eyes falling once more upon the fellow blonde before they turn to curiously look upon the animal which travels beside her.]

To whom do I owe the pleasure?

[Video] | Bet you thought I forgot!

[klutzette]

[Fear not, Princess: a cheery blonde has heard your call.]

Welcome to Genessia, Your Royal Highness! My name's Colette. I don't really know much about what's going on around here, but I'll do my best to help you out however I can.
