That sounds rad. That must mean you’re some kinda potion master, right? Like. . Like Dragon Blazers.

[ As Adleigh explained, Ralsei crossed his arms over his chest. ]

Sounds real different from the way things are done here, but. . I wouldn’t mind trying something like that.

Honestly, it sounds better than the boring stuff they gave us do at school.

Like, alchemy?

[ Who knew that a piece of chalk could lead to all these adventures? ]

. . Wait, you don’t have schools where you’re from? What do you, like. . do, then?
August 3, 2025 at 3:23 AM
[ Ralsei looks dumbfounded for a moment. Wow. He really did just wander into the school and drop into here, huh?

. . . Well, hopefully nobody else follows suit. ]

. . To be fair, that’s not too far off from how me and my friend discovered this place.

August 3, 2025 at 3:23 AM
But, uh. . That way out is to my school.

I’d imagine you’d like to get back to. . wherever you were. Not where I live.
August 1, 2025 at 2:42 AM
. . . Yeah, good point, I guess. Anyways. . I’ve got no idea where you came from, but the only exit I know of is back there.

[ He points a claw towards the southern end of town, a path that leads to a strange beam of light that shines downwards. Or is it shining upwards. . ? ]

. . Not quite. My friend, Susie, is kinda like. . the head honcho of this place. In a good way. She calls herself the “Princess of the Dark”, but if you ask me that sounds like something out of a novel I saw in 3rd grade.

[ Might’ve eaten a page out of that. ]
July 27, 2025 at 10:14 PM
. . Uh, yeah. I sit right behind you — oh, wait. .

[ Multiverse stuff. Right. Still getting used to that. . ]

. . I do. I don’t really have any guardians, though. I’m. . kinda surprised they haven’t thrown me in juvie yet.
July 27, 2025 at 10:09 PM
You’re tellin’ me. Sure, I might’ve made her mad in class before, but that was. . something else. I dunno.

Tenna doesn’t deserve that, y’know?
July 27, 2025 at 10:05 PM
Me? Eh, I’m fine. .

Just wasn’t expecting all that.

I can understand looking out for somebody’s best interest, but. . damn.
July 27, 2025 at 9:58 PM
So. .

That was. . a lot.
July 27, 2025 at 9:41 PM
[ Ralsei feels as if he could have explained that better, but it’ll make do for now. ]

. . The only king here is the one that’s locked up in the dungeon. For a good reason, mind you.
July 27, 2025 at 9:36 PM
. . . For me?

[ Ralsei looks taken aback for a moment, but tries to regain his composure.

He feels like he doesn’t deserve it, but. . ]

Th . . Thanks.

[ Gently taking it into his hands. . surprising, for someone like him. ]
July 27, 2025 at 2:37 AM
Damn, if only Susie were around to explain. . Ah well.

You’re in a Dark World. Dark Worlds are like. . well, the best way to put it is like. . It’s like something familiar, but you can’t quite recognize it, so your mind just fills in the rest.

To be more specific. . uh, Welcome to Castle Town.
July 27, 2025 at 12:26 AM
[ Ralsei nodded along as Adleigh went on, but as he explained where he came from, his eyes began to widen. ]

Wait.. you mean to tell me you just walked right on in?

[ He’s one to talk. It’s not every day you walk into a supply closet and stumble across another world entirely. ]

>>
July 27, 2025 at 12:26 AM
Huh. Thought you’d make a squeaky toy noise or somethin’.

[ Just fucking lobbing that stick behind his shoulder. It’s gone. ]

[ Poking him with a stick. ]
July 26, 2025 at 10:13 PM
[ He was deep in thought when he caught a glimpse of a stranger in the corner of his eye — turning to come face to face with Adleigh.

Ralsei’s tattered scarf fluttered slightly in the breeze. . he stood tall. ]

. . . Who are you?
July 26, 2025 at 9:58 PM
After all, she /was/ the Princess of the dark. . this was her domain, was it not?

This place was becoming somewhat of a second home for him. Much better than that old place he inherited near Hometown’s lake. ]

[ It felt strange without the presence of his friends in Castle Town. Sure, he could’ve convinced Kris to sneak into the school with him, but. . he wouldn’t want to disturb them. What concerned him more, however, was that Susie was nowhere to be seen.
