001 [Accidental Video]

[swordprincess]

[Karla was used to wandering around. She didn't have much direction, but most of the time it didn't matter. As long as there were arenas, she knew where to go. And normally, she'd have her sword with her.]

[But now she has no idea where she is. She's wearing some kind of white sundress...which isn't bad, but she'd very much prefer her own clothing. And she has no sword. Alone in the woods of some strange new place without her sword, she feels quite lost and vulnerable.]

[Then she notices the book nearby with her name on it. Curious, she picks it up and flips through the empty pages.]

I'm lost...if only you could carry me home, Brother, like you did before...

[But she knows that won't happen this time. She lets out a sigh of longing.]

Oh Brother...where could you have gone, Brother...?

[The sarcasm goes right over her head.]

The world operates on spontaneity? What do you mean by that?

My brother...his name is Karel. However...he seems to be more widely known as the Sword Demon.

It's simple. As far as I know, there is no method at all of predicting when people come and go in this world - let alone how or who.

The name certainly doesn't match any I've met. I suppose I've seen my fair share of sword wielders who are clearly not of a benevolent nature back in my own world, yet I doubt there's any true connection to your brother.

[swordprincess]

I see...so there is no way to go back?

Well, my brother is not so bad. He's the best brother one can hope for.

[Says the totally biased sister.]

Not that I know of. But if you happen to stumble upon any spontaneously-generated tears in space leading back to one's world, be sure to let me know.

Ah, so he comes with glowing reviews. [Just a bit of bias there...]

[Video]

[swordprincess]

Spontaneously-generated tears in space? What are those?

Ah yes, I should have assumed you're not from a particularly intellectual civilization. An easy way to describe it would be a door in thin air that goes to another world. Perhaps there are other schools of thought on how to return home, but that one is the simplest to visualize.

[swordprincess]

...I would hardly consider myself attached to any particular civilization, so pardon me if I seem ignorant.

...A door in thin air, hmm? All right, I'll let you know if I see something like that. Um...what should I call you?

[Video]

[yourfononsarewhack]

It's understandable. I suppose you're less ignorant in comparison to a number of people even from my own world.

Colonel Jade Curtiss. Or perhaps Colonel for short.

[swordprincess]

...I'm Karla.

So, you come from an...intellectual civilization?

The pleasure's all mine.

Compared to some others I've come across, I'd say yes. But then again, considering the sheer diversity of all different realities with varying levels of advancements represented in this world, everything is truly relative. I've already come across a number of findings that would put some aspects of our worlds to shame.

[Like these "telephone" things. Seriously, how many of their problems would be solved so much more efficiently if they just had that - or these journals, for that matter.]
