[There's a sound of a breath before the video comes into focus. She might look a bit familiar to anyone that's met the other Zelda--but only marginally. She's dressed in a white dress, a bit ragged, bare shoulders only serving to highlight a golden hawk necklace draped about her neck.]

I know many of us are here without planning for it but...How many of us feel we need back home? How many of us left something important behind, something we needed to see through to the very end?

I suppose this is not the best way to introduce myself, but I--shared experiences can help one feel more comfortable. I am...My name is Zelda. If anyone has met others from a place called Hyrule, I would appreciate knowing they are here, that they are safe...

[inmemoriae]

At least some of us can enjoy the time here...

[inmemoriae]

Impossible?

Perhaps...If there is nowhere you believe yourself to be needed, this is where you do need to be. I do not believe that people simply cease to be needed...distance can sometimes shift our perspective to help us see where that need lies.

[inmemoriae]

Was it terribly important? [Missions, in her experience, often are.]

Seras, a pleasure. Though I must say I wouldn't call Hyrule small by any means, it is an entire kingdom in and of itself.

[Oh this must be--Others have mentioned this other Zelda.]

O-Oh. And you are--also Zelda it would seem. Amazing...is a word for it.

[inmemoriae]

I...can relate. My situation is also rather complicated. I...fear for what would await me on my return.

[1upzero]

If I could start from the beginning, there are definitely things I would do differently, but... considering what the options were, I do not regret my actions or the outcome from them. I have faith it will work out.

[paradoxically]

I'm sorry. That's gotta be hard, not knowing what you're going back to.

[darkcharge]

Impossible is what I said, yes.
What was missing was replaced.
So that which was lost can't be can't return.
You really think that just because there's nowhere I am needed that it's fate to be here?
Then what does that say about you and yours?

[inmemoriae]

What was replaced, then?

...As for mine, I choose to believe there is a reason I am here. It doesn't mean I approve of the situation but...it does help give purpose to my presence.

video;

[inmemoriae]

It is, yes. But I have to believe all is well, despair does no one any favors.

[got_big_guns]

Most of them do seem to be.

[Not that she doesn't think that her Master wouldn't be able to handle things on his own. He is stronger than her, embraced who and what he is. Whereas she? Seras is still struggling with that.

The blinks once, twice, before humming.]

Oh. What's it like?

[darkcharge]

A heart.
You choose to believe there is a reason but you don't know that there actually is one.
Do you absolutely have to have purpose?

[inmemoriae]

I would say that something like this happening twice would be evidence to support the theory that this is going to be a regular event.

Then our ability to produce it is one reason to keep us here...I would think there is more to it than that.

[inmemoriae]

Even if you cannot know how your world is now, you do have the benefit of having those you know here with you. Whatever brought us all together must have taken things into account somewhere. We have to hold to that hope.

Video

[inmemoriae]

Sometimes not having regrets is all we can hope for. I am sure if you've done what you could, things will work out in one way or another.

Video

[castcure]

If I'm understanding correctly, it's being worked on. It... might just take time.

Now, we just need to find out what sort of good there is to be done, hmm?

[inmemoriae]

How does that--I apologize, but such a thing is hard to comprehend.

I don't know, that is why I hold to my belief. It makes the unknown less intimidating.

It doesn't have to be a large purpose. I suppose it would merely be something to give me direction.

[inmemoriae]

Then I hope you are able to complete it soon.

[She smiles softly, encouragingly.]

It is--was--a beautiful place, lush and green. The people were kind and warm, dedicated to their crafts and to our kingdom. I miss it terribly.

Video

[inmemoriae]

Even if it were to take time, it's a relief to know that something is being worked on.

Have you found anything we could work on? I've only just arrived myself.

[takingchances]

Once is chance, twice can be coincidence, three times is a pattern. Or so the saying goes anyhow.

Definitely. I'd suggest then if you're as keen on getting home as I am, come join the Lunar Scientia. I don't know if it's the case but if we can find a way to help them generate their own Chroma, we might find a way to get back to our homes as well.

It's just a thought though but it's better than doing nothing.

video;

[inmemoriae]

A wise saying. I suppose it will be a waiting game to see if this happens again...

Lunar Scientia. I must admit I was rather adamant in my pursuit of knowledge and scientific discovery back home. I would be willing to lend my time to researching this Chroma and its means of production...

video;

[takingchances]

Oh yeah? You might like the Academy here too then. Lunar Scientia really encourage taking classes if you work for them. I've been doing that myself and it's pretty fun, I have to say.

Video

[castcure]

Nothing big and important to help with, no... but I've been helping with all the gardening and planting for the festival. Beyond that... well. I've just arrived, too. It seems like it's not quiet here, exactly, but... it's peaceful? In a way?

[got_big_guns]

Thanks.

[Although if she has anything to say about it, she won't leave until Integra is able to leave as well.]

Mm. That- sounds like a nice place.

[Almost not real, but she wouldn't say that. And, that is based on her own past as well. There hadn't been much kindness or warmth at times.]

[mettatronic]

[Ooh-hoo-hoo, do so, dear! Mettaton loves being stared at!

Seriously, he's very aware that she's doing that! Aaaand for it, he keeps eye contact pinned...!

Brows held high in a look of utter restful self-contentment. A quirk of a brow on the echoing of the word "glitz".

But then!]

Oh?

[His eyes flit widened slightly in... mock(?) taken-abacked-ness...! A hand flitting, likewise, up in front of his mouth.]

Now, don't tell me you don't have the everlasting source of sparkle that is star power-driven programming back where you come from! [Smile back on clear - index finger pointing up with a light snap.] Or -- gasp! -- that you've never even owned a TV, you poor, poor dear!

[...Did you just -- yes. Yeeeees, of course you did. You actually said "gasp".]
