1st Oath

[unlucky_hero]

[When the feed clicks it appears to be pointing down at a blue eyed Prickmane. It seemed to have noticed right away that it was recording by the way its ears perked up. Although its person must be oblivious still, so it chirped.]

Huh? [The voice was still off screen but in a few seconds he moved it.] Oh!

Geez, I didn't think it was going to start right away.. [Nervously scratches the back of his head. He didn't even have an introduction planned out yet or anything!]

S-so umm.. this may sound stupid but, what is exactly going on? I'm not too sure how much I believe this whole 'dream' thing. I mean for one thing, I haven't been suddenly in my underwear yet. And second, I've never heard of a dream that you can get hurt in before.

... Or can that sometimes happen? I don't think I even know anymore.

Hey! Welcome to town; I'm Lea.

[Now that things are settled, Lea wants to start saying hi to people; he should be friendly.]

Yeah, this place is real. It's not like regular dreams; we're all here together until we can figure out a way to get back home.

[unlucky_hero]

So it's dream, but we're not in a dream? [Oh.. kay. If whatever caused all this was some sort of major concussion he would not be surprised.]

[Kind of just shaking head and just going to assume that actually sense.] H-how many are here anyway?

[eternalfrolicbond]

I don't have a really good count. Less than fifty people, definitely.

[He needed to meet more of 'em, really.]

1/2

[unlucky_hero]

That sure is a lot..

[unlucky_hero]

[Gets a thought.] Wait, do you have an idea who most of them are? [There's no way he could have been brought here all by himself. Luck would never hate him that much.]

[eternalfrolicbond]

More or less. Are you looking for someone?

[unlucky_hero]

A few people, actually. ... Most of them are from the Netherworld. [Well, all of them except for him and one other, anyway.]

[eternalfrolicbond]

Names would help; not many people talk too much about where they're from.

[unlucky_hero]

[He's positive that one of them probably would have. That may either not be a good sign or Lea hadn't ran into him yet.]

Do the names Sapphire, Mao, or Rasberyl ring any bells? [No, it totally didn't feel odd calling the princess by name]

[eternalfrolicbond]

[Lea shakes his head.]

Sorry, haven't met anyone with those names.

[unlucky_hero]

I see.

[DESPAIR.]

[eternalfrolicbond]

Maybe they'll show up later.

[unlucky_hero]

I guess that is a possibility.

[eternalfrolicbond]

Hey, don't feel too bad. I'm sure you'll make friends here.

[unlucky_hero]

It's not that. What's going to happen to me when they know I'm gone?

[eternalfrolicbond]

Oh, that's no problem. You're just asleep at home.

[Probably.]

[unlucky_hero]

[... Probably doesn't generally work here, remember?]

But if I don't wake up?

[eternalfrolicbond]

I don't think you're asleep the same amount of time. Time is different between worlds, yanno?

[unlucky_hero]

[Putting two and two together].... So when I wake up it'll be like nothing happened?

[eternalfrolicbond]

That seems to be it, yeah.

[unlucky_hero]

So then, I will be fine.

... I hope.

[eternalfrolicbond]

Yeah, pretty much.

[unlucky_hero]

That is good to know.

[eternalfrolicbond]

Glad I could help.
