[there's anxious looking blond on screen, clearly walking through the halls in an attempt to figure out what's going on, casting the occasional furtive look over his shoulder.]

Ah-- Hello. I'm not sure I'm using this right-- it operates like a relic from a century ago...-- but if you can hear me, could you tell me where I am? I'm lost and I don't-- I don't know how I got here. I've got an important mission to do back home, and my partner-- [Abel pales slightly. Oh man, when Cain realizes he's gone...] ...he'll be upset that I'm missing.

You don't know the Colterons? [she said 'dimension'... probably not in the scientific sense, then.]

When you say dimensions, do you mean-- alternate realities?

[motherofsilence.livejournal.com]

I've never heard of them - they're probably something that's only on your world.


[...Well, "alternate realities" is something she's used to thinking of in terms of layers of the same world, but she's heard it used here before at some point, so-] Yes, something like that.

[ownednavigator.livejournal.com]

[if it is alternate realities, then it makes sense that she wouldn't know the Colterons-- but a life without them is hard to imagine. Abel frowns, considering it over.]

But things won't progress back home until I get back?

[motherofsilence.livejournal.com]

Possibly. I don't know that I can say for certain. [She's not one for raising false hopes; she thinks it shouldn't - but she can't guarantee it.]

[He looks a little distant for a moment before nodding.] It'll have to be good enough.

[motherofsilence.livejournal.com]

I'm sorry. The situation is very limited - I'm not even sure how this realm is anchored, much less how one would trigger the mechanisms to pass between this and other worlds.

[ownednavigator.livejournal.com]

No-- it's not your fault, right? [he tries to smile, a little. it doesn't really work.] Thank you for giving me as much information as you have,

[motherofsilence.livejournal.com]

It's mostly safe here - there are others trying to find a way out.

[ownednavigator.livejournal.com]

I hope one of us is successful. How... long have people been here?

[motherofsilence.livejournal.com]

... It seems it's been anywhere from a few weeks, to - there are a few that may have been here over a year.

[ownednavigator.livejournal.com]

[he nods a little. It could be worse...] Alright. There may still be a chance, then-- a year isn't that long.

[motherofsilence.livejournal.com]

No, it isn't... and we have plenty of time to work on unraveling how this place works.

[ownednavigator.livejournal.com]

Mm. I'll keep my hopes up, the.
