Trial 001 [Radio, audio only] [Public]
I'll admit, you've got one interesting place here.
[The voice belongs to a young woman, and sounds to be in her early to mid-twenties. A bit tired perhaps, but whatever stress she feels is being carefully restrained as she begins her plea for information - with an introduction naturally.] As practiced as that orientation is at the Welcome Center, I take it everyone is rather used to newcomers. So, hi. Name's Abigail, and I'm from a city called San Fransokyo.
[There's a pause that follows, but the hesitation is shaken off as she proceeds to her point.]
Just walking into the city in the first place showed me a lot. And keeping an open mind, the whole Great Turtle is begging a lot of questions, but I have one thing I would like to confirm.
For lack of a better way to say it, did time really stop back where we came from? Has anyone been able to verify it somehow? I ask because I transitioned here at a really...inopportune moment.

Interesting mechanic forcing a restart. I wonder if there's an intended purpose to it or if it's a side effect of something else.
Audio:
I do wonder too. It hardly seemed as though any of us were in danger or near death at the time. I was offered a CHANCE to go back, after the war's end, but that was very different by then. Though Hmm. The process IS said to be mostly unchanged, despite all else that has changed here.
Audio
Mostly unchanged? I don't suppose you can explain what has changed..?
Audio
The Kedan, and the way they govern here, much of our ways of life were gone, and we lost some dear friends along the way, things like that. The war left us with a new landscape to navigate, honestly.
Audio
I see. [Rather than learn about the history at this time however, Abigail is focused on getting a full grasp on conduct of the present.]
But nothing has changed about how people are brought here?
Audio:
Only in terms of how we're welcomed. A long time ago, one washed up in the presence of our Empress or Emperor in the bath. We've moved beyond having them now, or the kedan have, and now one might wake here anywhere. Other than that...I cannot say it has changed, no.
Audio (ffff- I am so sorry I lost this notif apparently!)
But before it was always near the Empress or Emporer? Are they still here in Keeliai or...? [If they were acting as anchor points for arrivals, it might be important to know why that function is no longer served.]
Audio: [No worries!]
It was. But now that our last has been gone for some time, no anchors of the sort. Everyone's been surfacing in very strange new places when they show up here now. One could land near anywhere on the island. ...Crazy sounding, right?
