[ If you had paid visit before, you might notice that where you start seems fairly familiar. But since most of you haven't… the first thing you'll notice is red. Dark red all around you. The sky, the ground—everything is red. It's impossible to make out anything among the color. But if you attempt to stare at any particular space for too long, you'll discover it pulses, flows.

And then there is a laugh that you are probably very acquainted with by now, only this time it’s LOUDER, wracking inside your skull. ]

FOOLISH WORMS! THIS IS MY DOMAIN NOW. YOU SHALL ALL PERISH. TORN ASUNDER. NOTHING LEFT.

[ Well then. ]


((Join #eyesontheprize if you can for coordination and easy communication.

Also, I futzed up by not putting up a mingle header. If you show up late and want to talk to Alpha in addition to/instead of the second NPC, let me know. I doubt many people really want to talk to Alpha though... ))

[ With your powers combined... Kira and Sunset are freed from Alpha's clutches. For now.

Also, those of you with magical senses are probably finding them going a bit haywire right now. The rest of you might just feel an odd sensation, like an ice cube rolling down your back, as a voice speaks directly into your mind, leaving no register on your ears.

The voice seems a tad similar to Ryner’s but not quite. This is more manic, giddy and with a touch of something very much not-human: ]

"Hohhhhhhhhhhh, you guys are pretty good! I think with you, he'll really be able to do it this time. Maybe. It can't hurt to find out! Let's try it!"

[crimsonjewel]

[first part out loud] Who are- [then switching to thought] [Who are you? You don't sound like the other voice.]

[stigmateyes]

"They're up to quite a few names now. I keep losing track. I've always liked Ryner the most. Because he said it."

[crimsonjewel]

He?

[stigmateyes]

"My first friend."

[ Sounds both lonely and happy at the same time. ]

[shednotearsformagic]

[Ugh, my poor clothes.]

[....]

[So would it be better to keep it in thought, or does it not matter if we talk to you aloud? Can you even hear our thoughts?]

[stigmateyes]

"Whatever you like. It doesn't really matter, does it?"

[shednotearsformagic]

[It depends if Alpha already knows you're here and this way keeps you from being noticed. If not, then aloud means the others aren't so surprised.]

[stigmateyes]

"He knows. He's always known. That's why he's here. They don't like me."

[floorcandy]

Thaaaat's a new one.

[stigmateyes]

"A new one?"

[floorcandy]

You! You're new.

[stigmateyes]

"That's strange. I've always been here. You're the new one. Most of you are, really. I only recognize one."

[antreegonist]

*haywire how though*

Who are you?

[stigmateyes]

[ Just crazy powerful and hard to pinpoint exactly what the nature of that power is. ]

"I told her. Ryner's the one I like to hear. I'd really like it if you used that."

[antreegonist]

*everything in this heart is giving me a headache and it's been five minutes*

Well . . . who called you that?

[stigmateyes]

"Sion."

[ SO SO MUCH LOVE. SO MUCH OVERWHELMING LOVE. ]

[unionoftheheart]

[EVERYONE ELSE IS ASKING WHO THIS IS SO I'M JUST GONNA LISTEN]

[and shiver a little, watching everything carefully]

[stigmateyes]

"Wow, so many new people. This is great! I've missed talking to people. It's really nice, isn't it?"

[ A bit melancholy and a bit exuberant. ]

[unionoftheheart]

You've been in here all along too...? What's your name?

[crimsonjewel]

Hello. I don't think we've met before. I'm Sunset, one of Night's teammates.

[unionoftheheart]

[a little startled at being said hi to but waving]

O-oh, hi, yeah I don't think we have. I'm Ventus, Ven for short.

[ihulk]

[I am over here freaked out]

Uh...so we're good?

[stigmateyes]

"Yeah! You figured out how to take advantage of this place. Even he doesn't know all the tricks."

[ihulk]

How does he not know the tricks when he basically lives here?
