Good evening everyone.

My name is Goro Akechi. Some of you might already know me, seeing this marks as the seventh month for me here in Aldrip. I have been collecting and documenting information about this world, all while pursuing the truth behind our presence here. But first things first:

[TLDR: The Council, Sentencing, Legal Advise!]

I believe most of us were surprised by the sudden emergence of governmental power called 'The Council' and their lackey 'Jerry.' However, I do believe their arrival, along with this 'Sentencing' program matches the mood of the town ever since leaving the maze. We, the so-called Chosen, have been treated with suspicion and distrust. It could very well be that it is locals' reaction that summoned the authority figures.

But speaking of the Sentencing. Me and another individual, Osamu Dazai, have established a Law Consultation Agency to help those who have been picked to by the program. We both have worked as investigators and along with those who are dealing with law in our own worlds, so I believe our experience could help those who are stuck with these abrupt tasks set by the council. I'd appreciate if those who have had the run-in with Jerry or the Council were to approach us and share their experiences.

So far, they have been reluctant to give us any clear criminal code, which leads me to believe that there isn't one. Despite being granted a grand sounding title as The Chosen it is important to remember that we aren't citizens here, exactly. Meaning we don't enjoy the same privileges as the locals here. Whether that means we are merely prisoners or if there another reason for our presence here? That I don't know of. But at the moment all the signs indicate that we aren't the first group of 'Chosen' to have brought into this world.

If you have any further information or questions, please do not hesitate to reach out for me.

[...Christ, what's up with his dude. It's true that he and Aragaki weren't close before, only exchanging few words here and there. But he had seen just how much important his relationship with Kotone was to him. It is quite jarring to see him talk about her in this manner.

Wow. He's almost annoyed??]

ah. i didn't imagine that there are so many of us around, my mistake.

[drugsnotclubs]

[He is absolutely picking up on that attempt to slam shut the conversation!!! Which is fine persona is his least favourite topic.]

Yeah even the dog had the same power as us.

You got any other questions?

[murderingjustice]

[funny that!! it's in Akechi's top 3 favorite topic.]

a dog? ah, yes. i don't think that's too surprising. we had a cat.

[drugsnotclubs]

[ok that sounds cute as hell. Also congrats, Akechi, you and Shinjiro have as much in common as you and a Cat.]

Everyone's gotta have one I guess.

[ok he's actually interested in this cat tho??? Cat persona users: he'll allow.]

How'd it fight, just clawing things up? Koro-chan'd hold knives in his mouth and do flips and shit to slash up Shadows.

[murderingjustice]

'it' is a he. morgana wielded saber-styled swords and was also able to use wind magic. his cat form changed into more mascot-like when we entered metaverse, making him able to walk on two legs and use his front paws as hands.

[drugsnotclubs]

[wow akechi don't gender the catcar]

Oh.

[He already knew Koro was the best boy, and now he is validated. What is this fake cat thing.]

Yeah Koro-chan's not a shape-shifter like that. Probably for the best.

[....mascot Koro would be freaky but. Give him a little??? Sword???]

[murderingjustice]

morgana is a creature from metaverse. i believe he was born in the velvet room.

he takes the form of cat in our own world so that he can fit in better

[drugsnotclubs]

[he doesn't know wtf the metaverse or the velvet room are but. whatever. Assuming the Dark Hour was done, there was probably some other ways Persona Users had access to Shadows and the like.]

....so he's not really a cat, sounds like.

[murderingjustice]

that you'd have to ask about from Akira Kurusu. He knows Morgana the best.

[drugsnotclubs]

[ew effort. But also now he's sure that Koro >>>>> Morgana. Morgana ain't even a real-ass cat. Koro's just a normal wonderful Good Boy who managed to get a Persona.]

If it ever comes up I guess. That's pretty much all the questions I had.

[murderingjustice]

yes I believe we see done for now.

however, if you find further proof to back up your theory about different timelines I would appreciate learning about it, Aragaki-san.
