"Hello, I am Elizabeth, formerly of the Velvet Room. I have..."

She stops and ponders, as if looking for words, "Been trying to get an understanding of this place. I have two questions for people here. Firstly, is time wrong for anyone else here? As in you know people here, but they are from... Far before?"

Her eyes darken a bit after, "Also, does the word 'Persona' mean anything of note to anyone?"

"Anyways, I thank you for any help you could offer, mostly because I still am... Somewhat uncertain how to deal with people who have not yet seen things I have and, do not want to cause any past ordeals to be undone."

Yes. People who are from the Velvet Room, do not leave it. My soul yearned for something more. I suppose that it is not common.

Still, as for the other questions, perhaps if we had someone with a navigation persona, or a ritual to pierce the veil, or one of those odd contraptions that mortals use to learn things about other worlds. I do not know why we were brought with no information, but perhaps it is our destiny to take what we can and leave it in a way others can understand.

It's...not as uncommon as you might think. I know the feeling.

I think you might be right though, that all we can do is gather the information we can and keep it organized and updated. That way, even if WE can't figure it out, someone else could later on.

I see. Still we would need to either craft a navi persona or one of those mortal machines. I would need more persona to merge and there are no shadows here, so the machine may be better, unless you know sorcery.

Are the green people the intellectuals of your world? You seem rather adept at scientific thought, and know nothing of green mortals so I am merely guessing.

... Wait, what? What machines? Why don't you have a shadow?? Am I missing something here?

Oh-- I'm from Orion. It's a planet. Everyone there looks like me. ...I mean, not literally the same as me, I'm not a clone or anything, but most Orions have skin that's some shade of green, and hair colors ranging from green to black to blue or red. Mostly.

[elevatoravatar]

Oh, I don't know. But I know that mortals like to make machines to find out all kinds of strange things. I know more of magic than science.

Are Orions the thinkers of your world? I know some races tend to live more in logic and thought, and others more in... Other things.

[unprimed]

Magic?? That's...wow. I've heard a few people talk about magic, here, but there's nothing like that where I'm from?

Not exactly?? I mean. Orions are just...people from Orion. It's a whole planet, so people can be pretty...different. Just like on other worlds, I think. That said, there aren't exactly a lot of Orion scientists. Not that there aren't any! It's just...not as much of a thing, you know?
