A question for the Chosen: why have you not banded together already? Some arrivals go back to almost a year, and yet you're still here. You're not without skill. There are summoners, magic users, and bomb makers in this city. Directed efforts could surely overpower our captors if there was direction.

Possibly there are those who want to stay here. Those who are dead in the world that they come from. But what of the ones who want to go home? What do they say? Are they just content to live their lives here while they have unfinished business at home?

It's possible that some of the lack of action is complacency. But others... may be a lack of leadership. Instead of waiting around for someone to save you, have you considered that you might be able to take charge of your situation? What holds you back? The Council? Jerry? That is one man, and an entity that we haven't seen thus far.

For now, it's food for thought. But I'd be interested to know who would actually be interested in leaving this place, instead of playing house in a world that dictates their actions. For those who may want to stay... what would life be like without the "Council" watching your every move?

you make this place sound so dramatic.

but you know those frogs a month ago have 'dictated my actions' more than any council or anyone else here. far as i know they dont actually do anything aside from hand out chores every so often.

A world where actions and behaviors are controlled and manipulated is dramatic in itself, isn't it?

You don't honestly think that it'll just be something so benign forever, do you?

[drugsnotclubs]

...Yeah, you're still making it sound like this shit's happening constantly.

Probably not. But I also don't think it'll be forever.

So, how do you plan on leaving?

[geass]

I'm still collecting information on how to leave. It's not as if there's a lot of conclusive evidence that there's been any attempts, after all.

[drugsnotclubs]

yeah I guess figuring out where we are is a better place to start. Is it another planet another dimension, just an island out in the Atlantic or something...

How're you doing on that front?

Cause half of the having no leadership thing might be that we have no one with concrete enough ideas to matter.

[geass]

Not well. But I haven't been here long enough to really have so much information yet.

[drugsnotclubs]

But you're still out here bitching that we haven't taken enough action since getting here. Guess we all deal with frustration differently.

There's been a lot change about the place in the past couple months, from what I hear. Might be worth finding people who've been here to the longest and asking about that, to start with. Or about how the Council seems to be more active now than it was before.

[geass]

Noted.

Perhaps just leaving us to our own devices weren't getting the "rehabilitation" results they wanted. Or someone stepped on a trap that forced them to bear down on us.
