*Stops to watch you do the second loop and then continues behind you*

@Magnanimity

*raises an eyebrow at Jade's enjoyment of the place* I don't know i think this might be therapeutic for her...

<Snipped quote by Magnanimity>

Where are you from?

@Server

<Snipped quote by Server>

Space.

@Magnanimity

*Grins boyishly* I KNEW it! Yup i approve!

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Server>

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

@Magnanimity

Unless Jade is also haunted... this place shouldn't have real spirits other than whatever the curse might throw at us...

<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

And relax my man... even if you do get munched here so what? *Chuckles dorkly* You can re-join once you recovered back in reality for a bit

<Snipped quote by Magnanimity>

Well, in that case let's make double sure to stick together.
*Doubles around a dried-out oak twice and continues walking forward through the thick brush, every now and then snagging on brambles*

@Server

*Follows focused*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by 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.

@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...

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by 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.

@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...

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by 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.

@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*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by 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.

@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*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by The Odeoron>

Maybe a little homesick?

@Server

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

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by The Odeoron>

How do I feel? How am I supposed to feel?

@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?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by The Odeoron>

Because that's where the town would be. Plus, there's no reason to go to town.

@Server

Ah! Gotcha! So how do you feel considering all this experience i conjured up?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by The Odeoron>

But then we wouldn't have an exit.

@Server

Y... you know this works both ways right? And why would you changing the environment here block the exit?
