WHO: Lethe & Melody
WHERE: ???
WHEN: ???

[wakey wakey! When were you knocked out?? When did you get taken? Answers for later. It's very likely you don't wake up at the same time though. Shhh, time/space.

But you're in....some kinda office? Weird. It's pretty minimal, but there are windows, though all you can see outside is the mist and some faint lights in the distance.

Their accommodations aren't much better. Both Melody and Lethe find themselves in matching, clear cubicles. There's at least a desk and chair in each if they need to sit down.

Oh yeah, and there's a shadowy like wolf in a mask sitting at the table.]

About time one of you woke up. Just so you don't try anything foolish. . .

One, you're in the mist, so whatever abilities Stormia blessed you with won't work here. Secondly, each of your cubicles are rigged. If the structures sense any deterioration from an escape attempt, a poisonous gas will be released into the girl's area, and the other will be crushed. Thirdly, they've been reinforced with barrier magic. No teleportation spells will work.

I've been instructed to talk to you. Let's make it quick.

[Sometimes, she will leave the office! Feel free to talk to each other.]

[Lethe absolutely does attempt to use his illusion skills to make himself go invisible upon first waking up, because that's just common sense. the shadowy person still being able to talk to him confirms that isn't doing anything, though, so he crosses his arms and leans against the table]

What, no introductions? If we're getting right to business then I'd like to talk to my lawyer, please.

[she crosses her sleeved arms]

You have no right to a lawyer and no right to remain silent. Everything you say can and will be used against you.

Is that clear?

[ at least she's calm ]

Then, let's talk. Who are you working for?

Lethe-san!

[ whispering ]

What a rude child. I will be asking the questions here, and if your answers are satisfactory, I may return the favor.

I think kidnapping us and threatening is actually what's rude, Wolf-san. You haven't even told me your name.

You may address me as Bea. Miss Bea.

I have no need for your name, just information. When did you arrive to this world?

[raises his hand]

It isn't, I have some follow-up questions. Who are you?

Very well, Miss Bea. My name here is Melody.

I will answer your question if you answer a question of my own. That is civilized, isn't it?

[whispering back]

Are you doing okay, Melody?

I'm fine! Are you okay? Did she hurt you?

[just kind of stares at her like ????????? what,]

I'm perfectly fine. Don't worry about me, this isn't that big of a deal. I don't suppose you have any way to get out of this, though?

[ lethe you should be used to people caring about you by now right ]

I, ah, I think I can still use my powers..... but if I try to escape, then you and I will both die... if her threats are to be believed..

[his eyes flick around the room, memorizing the details and looking for cracks in the construction]

I'd rather not get you killed...if you could touch me I could apply Poison Resistance, but I don't think we could manage it before I get crushed. And I assume if I die then my resistances won't work. Can I use my skill on you?

I am civilized.

You're nothing but a country hick, polluting our world.

[she raises her sleeve, reveal what could be knives or claws]

I'll ask once more. When did you arrive to this world?

I was brought here against my will. In my time here, I've only tried to improve the conditions of the pasture. You have kidnapped myself and my friend. That is hardly what I would call civilized, Miss Bea.

[ not cowed!!!! yet ]

I will answer that question, provided you answer one in return. As stated.

You may address me as Miss Bea. I will accept no further questions from you.

Now--what have the sheep of that remnant of a pasture been planning?

I can cast Tetrakarn on you.... but I don't think it's powerful enough to keep you from being crushed.... Also, calling my persona would bring attention to us...

[ also furtively looking around, to make sure they're still alone ]

Ah.... yes. Go ahead.

Now, that's not very nice, is it, Miss Bea? I'd be more than happy to cooperate with you if this was an exchange of information. I don't have anything to hide, but you have to understand that I don't have a reason to give you information for free either.

Why don't we do a trade? I'll tell you what we've been planning if you tell me who you're working for. A little context wouldn't hurt either.

[a flick of her wrist.

Somehow, a knife flies through the barrier of her cubicle, striking Melody deep in one of her shoulders. ]

My apologies, I was not clear:

I will not negotiate.

That's on a need to know basis--and you, most certainly, don't need to know.

[her head does tilt slightly. It seems Trades do interest her, but she's a hard nut to crack]

You have zero leverage with me. If you do not cooperate, you will die, and you will stay dead. Or have you forgotten, that your precious Eye of Death is wide open, ready to claim you as you draw your last breath?

[it is something of interest that she's willing to do Trades if she feels it's worth her time, at least]

That's not as big of a threat as you think. She's got to blink eventually. Though, obviously, dying isn't preferable. But killing me wouldn't give you what you want either, would it? A dead person can't talk.
