<Snipped quote by Server>

I’m less concerned about a forest’s opinion of me and more concerned about being subjected to the chaos of a region of the mind separated from the host’s presence.

@Magnanimity

You think it would do anything bad? I don't have any ill will toward you.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Server>

*Turns my head over to face you*
As long as you don’t wander away when I’m not looking.

@Magnanimity

I don't plan on going everywhere. Just stay in sight; the forest isn't very kind to outsiders.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Server>

Kind of. It wouldn’t be wrong to call it that.

@Magnanimity

Got it.
*Eventually the mudlands filters back into a dense forest, with what seems like twilight peeking through the trees*
Be careful here, you can get lost real quick.

<Snipped quote by Server>

It's a mere manifestation. No different than something I'd do in the real world.

<Snipped quote by The Odeoron>

I'm not terribly sure we'll actually find any spirits of that sort here.

@Magnanimity

Sort of like an apparition?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Server>

Interesting, but... huh... *Waves my hand in front of myself* It seems that this entire region of the world has that intrusive energy mixed in with the general aura, i wonder why it felt concentrated on those critters...

Ah... i meant how did you exit your universe...

@The Odeoron

What do you mean by intrusive? They're native. And for leaving, my dad taught me how. I don't know how he learned. But ever since, it's made my parents so proud for me to be out on my own.

<Snipped quote by Server>

How did you live if you don't mind me asking... and be warned, there's something off in the distance in the dirt that definitely does not ring like 'you' vibes... i might have spotted a lead here...

@The Odeoron

What do you mean? And those might be the gupperfish—they'll try to eat you if you move too much in the mud.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Server>

Simple isn't the word i would use for a job opportunity in an in-betweens pocket dimension tavern that acts like a way-stop for multiversal travellers... unless your world finds that concept usual and common...

*Hones in my scan on the locations that seem to emanate this feeling trying to work up on honing in to any target at all*

@The Odeoron

*The world itself seems to emanate unease, and in the mudfields, small creatures periodically plop into the dirt in our peripheral vision*
It's not, but I don't think many people from my world left the way I did. I was hoping Miss Sideslash could help me with my hunger.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Server>

Fair point... so what made you come and work for this tavern then? Why did you chose to start an adventurous life, especially travelling the omniverse like that? *Meanwhile we talk i keep my senses up for anything that reads 'not Jade's energy' signatures*

@The Odeoron

*The flatlands seems mostly dead and empty, but with a sharp, subtle feeling that something is off*
I wouldn't say I'm much of an adventurer. I just needed a job, so I started working there. It's pretty simple.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Server>

Hmm... why is that? Can you not return home?

@The Odeoron

I could go home if I had to. But I don't really want to yet—this place just looks a lot like where I grew up.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Server>

I don't know... do you find it weird? Entertaining? Thrilling? Scary... Hopeful? I mean it is also a way to cure you from within and perhaps even find ways you could fortify yourself against Mierno's curses?

@The Odeoron

Maybe a little homesick?
