I see we've acquired a circus this time around.

Living is a very strong word anymore, and the family itself is a tangled and unpleasant tale that I cannot tell here in any real detail.

But, really,


where did you think the guards, the maids, and the few townsfolk came from?

Such places do not tend themselves.

[whiteofcrime]

Well, 'living' as in they reside here at any rate.

Also that's not what I meant by other people!! I know that much. XP
Is it something I shouldn't ask about here?

[allthekeys]

I did say that I could not tell it.

Did you think it had been built here?

[whiteofcrime]

Well it's hard to shift a castle this size. Are you saying it wasn't built here?

[allthekeys]

......... After everything else that has fallen into this place from wherever, you think a building would be hand-carried across whatever brick by brick?

[whiteofcrime]

Of course not. But I can't see if we're floating again or not because of the fog and I don't know if this place has solid land.

If this castle was just 'dropped' here though, makes me think it was taken like the rest of us.

[allthekeys]

Brilliant deduction. The castle fell through the cosmic cracks, and took anyone who was within its walls and grounds at the time with it.

It is connected to other collections of things that have fallen here. We've had folk wander here before from them. I am not sure the road is open now; some major disruption occurred, and even without such the way does not open easily or swiftly.

[ Slight longer pause between responses while Kaito ventures outside. ]

The road definitely looks closed. I mean we can't even get into the town right now. Doubt going further will get us anywhere and I sure don't want to get lost on the first day.

If you're talking about a different kind of 'road' though then I've got no idea. There's no weird aurora right now at least.

[allthekeys]

The town gate usually doesn't stay locked for very long; the outer gate of the main wall, however, is usually closed at the Lord's will...

Not that it matters, as there are often large stretches of time where the road beyond it gets lost in the fog.

[whiteofcrime]

It kind of sucks. I want to see what's down there. :(




Is this place near the ocean? It smells salty.

[allthekeys]

There may be occasional forays; if the guards go hunting for the main nest of the deer, they may allow some assistance, if you have skills that would be of use on such a hunt, but I doubt they would take kindly to using something of that much importance as an excuse to sneak away...

And the fog that has moved into the forests makes it impossible to navigate.



There should be somewhere, one would think.

thanks for putting ideas in his head, Florence

[whiteofcrime]

I wouldn't sneak away! [ For very long. ]

But I do want to join them if they ever go out. I want to see what's outside. >:|
