A strange occurrance

[queenofpawns.livejournal.com]

[Ovelia appears on the Astral Plane, sitting politely with her hands folded in her lap atop a closed book. She looks around warily, although if she's afraid she doesn't let it show.]

This place is most bizarre. I cannot imagine it is part of some plot, but I cannot truly fathom exactly what my enemies are capable of.

Perhaps this is a blessing? A respite for my mind?

If anything, I must admit it is quite beautiful.

I cannot promise that it is not part of some plot, but welcome nonetheless to the Astral Plane, madame.

[queenofpawns.livejournal.com]

Astral Plane? Is that the name of this place? ...It does seem to fit such a mysterious place.

Greetings to you as well.

[lamb_of_gold]

It is. Sadly, the beauty belies the the dangers that this place presents.

[queenofpawns.livejournal.com]

I do not yet feel danger, although I shall remain wary. There is no place that exists where one can be entirely unguarded.

[lamb_of_gold]

True, but to live by such a rule would dictate a rather cloistered life, I'd imagine.

[shunofandromeda.livejournal.com]

This isn't caused by your enemies at least. Welcome to the Astral Plane.

[queenofpawns.livejournal.com]

That comes as a great relief to me, I must admit. Although my enemies have tactics available to them most could not explain.

[shunofandromeda.livejournal.com]

Don't worry, this isn't be anything someone from your world has done.

[queenofpawns.livejournal.com]

I see. Thank you for your information.

Enemies?

[queenofpawns.livejournal.com]

I know not of anyone who has none. Is it such a strange thing?

[brigadiertardis.livejournal.com]

No, not strange. You simply do not strike me as one to have many -- or any that would bear thinking of.

[queenofpawns.livejournal.com]

Appearances are often deceiving. The same could be said of you as well, could it not?

[shinypaws.livejournal.com]

I do hope this place isn't the work of your enemies! Though I would not be quick to call the creators of this place "friends," either.

[queenofpawns.livejournal.com]

I feel at ease here, strangely, so I am beginning to believe it is not part of something sinister. Though I shall continue to be wary.

[shinypaws.livejournal.com]

Wariness does seem to be the best course for this place. But you are right; it is very peaceful here. I have heard that there is the occasional bit of excitement, but I have yet to witness any.

May I ask your name, young one?

[queenofpawns.livejournal.com]

Perhaps the excitement shall find us someday. I am not sure that I look forward to such a day.

I am Ovelia. And may I know your name?

[miseardae.livejournal.com]

An experiment, mostly.

[wry smile]

And no - puppeteers, more like, but that's probably worse.

[queenofpawns.livejournal.com]

Such a mysterious place is an experiment? Yet how could anyone create anything as large and beautiful as this? I must admit to finding that hard to believe.

[miseardae.livejournal.com]

Have you noticed a new shop, recently? Met the owners?

[queenofpawns.livejournal.com]

[frowns, thinking] I do not often go out, however... Yes, I have noticed a slight change. The two I glimpsed were...strange, to say the least.

[salvagestime.livejournal.com]

Could be a blessing and a curse. Things usually are in the grey. [looks around] It is gorgeous though.

[queenofpawns.livejournal.com]

Your words ring true.

[salvagestime.livejournal.com]

[smiles at her] And who are you?

[queenofpawns.livejournal.com]

I am Ovelia. And you would be?
