[video]/[text] A warning. (Sept. 2)

[warriorscribe]

*The new floors threw him off for a bit. But this wasn't Meridian, and if Jason was watching over them, who knew what he might try. Forgetting to speak could be a fatal mistake.

So here Enoch is, sitting tall and eyes focused, if worried. He speaks in an even tone, a subtle strength to his voice despite its softness.*

The man among our hosts watching us now hasn't given us much to live on - and I believe he's the sort that wants to see us risk the restaurant's task for it.

*A deep breath.* I urge all of you, don't give in. The food may be tempting, but they'll ask an impossible task of you - I searched the entire tower four times over, never stopping to rest, and could not find what they requested. ...I later learned, after nearly dying, that my kidney had vanished.

*Another pause, and he swallows, trying to push the memory of that sickeningly frantic and frightening search to the back of his mind again. To try and forget how unsettling it was that they could simply alter his body without warning or sign...* The forest has game to hunt; I could teach anyone who is interested.

...Could someone teach me how to create one of those interactive references I've seen here at times? If you do, I'll keep a list of alternatives here as others suggest them.

*A few minutes after the post goes live, a text post is added, with Enoch replying to his own reply to link to the alternatives.*

Someone has told me how to create a link, and the alternatives I haven't already mentioned will be gathered here.

*Enoch nods.*

When I couldn't complete the task they asked of me.

[calculatedfire]

What task did they give you?

[warriorscribe]

They asked me to bring them a toy a monster carries - the floating pods, perhaps you've seen them. They very rarely show themselves. I only found one all day, and it only had an animal's heart.

[calculatedfire]

[Ryuho considers that.]

Do they always ask for something that difficult?

[warriorscribe]

I don't know. I was only told they would ask for something from the tower. I'm not willing to test that...and don't want to see anyone else do so, either.

[calculatedfire]

I am inclined to agree that that would be a bad idea.

[warriorscribe]

I can only hope enough people see this message...

[calculatedfire]

Can I ask, how long have you been here?

[warriorscribe]

I haven't been keeping track of time. At least three months...

[calculatedfire]

Is anyone else here from your world?

[warriorscribe]

*A long pause. He isn't sure which world to answer for.*

Not my original one, no...but I spent some time in another, and someone who was there with me has found herself there as well.

[calculatedfire]

Is it usual for people to travel between worlds where you are from?

[warriorscribe]

Not at all...it was difficult to adjust to being in another world, at first.

[calculatedfire]

I remember very little of my world. I know this is different, but not much more.

[warriorscribe]

...Then, is jumping from world to world normal for where you come from? Or...

*Or has he been here that long? Enoch doesn't want to think about it.*

[calculatedfire]

I don't think so. I have amnesia apparently. I only know my own name becuase someone here knows me.

[warriorscribe]

....Oh. I'm sorry.

*His own memory is fuzzy beyond a certain point from the sheer amount of time he's lived, but to have one's entire life and identity obscured...? Enoch is the image of sympathy.*

[calculatedfire]

It's not something I can control. With time it may heal.

[warriorscribe]

...I know. Such things often are. I hope you remember soon.

[calculatedfire]

Thank you.
