[Voice] Anyone else in the Pridelands?

[halfdarkened]

[There is a photo snapped by the journal inserted with the voice message. It's of a light-colored young lion with a silver, nearly-full mane. his snout is very close to the lens, and it's slightly fogged.]


[Grumbles] I lose my potions, food, water, munny, minor camping equipment, clothes... And I still have this thing?

Hey, if anyone else is here or has been, Mao and I managed to wind up here. Anyplace that hasn't been explored yet?

Well, Riku also wasn't planning on doing a CO intro while looking for help navigating the Pridelands

...I've seen a blind girl, but not like that. A lot of people get separated coming here.

XD Of course not. Hei wasn't expecting to arrive in the city while on the run from another org.

[Well it was worth a try. There's a pause that's open for interpretation.]

I thought so, that this must be a common occurrence. On this message board, someone named Tinkerbell had been separated from her friend Peter Pan. A talking hyena had been separated from her clan...

Think of it like asking a guy about a town he was in when he's asking people for directions. XD;;;

[That brief pause was Riku simply mulling it over.]

Yeah, we get 'em all.

[Hei files away Riku and everything he's told him he knows is very relevant...and it's just as he feared. But he keeps those strong emotions in check.]

Sure seems that way.

[Now to find out if Hei's other suspicions are correct or not about an old comrade being back from the dead.] So, um, aside from all the trouble of losing your belongings, what's it like being an animal? Has this Mao person you spoke of transformed into a lion also? What form was he before arriving to--wherever it is that you are?

...Sorry in advance. XD;;;

Itchy. And he's a demon-turned-serval.

...Look. We got no supplies. No food. No water. I can't small-talk right now. We need to go, unless you happen to have any information that could help us. You can ask when I get back or you can ask my friend, Sora on the boards.

It's cool. Hei totally understands... X3

[Demon? That doesn't sound like Mao Hei knew...unless Riku would think of a contractor cat as one. But he doubts that.

Hei's intending on wrapping this up anyway. It's completely understandable with the other sounding a bit snappish.]

[His final Li response sounds somewhat awkward.] Ah, right! Sorry for delaying.

Unfortunately, I can't help you. All I can do is wish you the best of luck. Be careful over there, both of you.
