[The message that appears is a simple text, no introduction, nothing personal about it.]

We've been told to live carefree lives. Or to make the most of our time while we're here. I wonder, can any of you be happy here?

What would it take to make you truly happy?

[Nothing odd about the query. He's a man with an interest in happiness, that's all.]

[seeyousuffer]

No happiness is permanent. It is ended in death, if by no other factor. But some happiness is more lasting and complete. I would say that it depends on the opinion of the one experiencing the happiness as to whether it counts.

What would make you happier?

[smallskull]

[This is hard. Emotions are hard.]

there were people i was happy being with but they aren't here

[seeyousuffer]

Oh no? What were they like?

Are you here all alone?

[Don't worry, Master will make it all better, Assassin.]

[smallskull]

[Well, if she had to pick a word that described both Rider and Waver at the same time...]

loud

[Just in different ways.]

yes

[seeyousuffer]

Do you miss them now? Is that the lasting happiness that was taken away from you?

Do you want to be alone?

[smallskull]

yes
i think i could have been happy if i stayed with them

[Even if she never remembered anything. She was happy learning things from them.]

there are other people here
i can see them when i want to

[seeyousuffer]

Then I'm sorry you were taken from them. That must be painful.

Do you like these other people? It's not the same, is it? Are you lonely?

[smallskull]

i don't know if it's painful
but i wish i could see them

it isn't the same
but it's interesting
i met a giant turtle that walked and talked
i've never seen anyone like that before

i don't know
maybe

[seeyousuffer]

It's possible they might arrive. Don't give up hope.

I've never met a giant turtle before, either. Did that make you happy, or was it only interesting?

How old are you?

[smallskull]

maybe
how do you think they pick who comes here?

i like seeing new things
or doing them
it's fun
we ate pizza together
i never did that before either

i don't know
i don't remember

[seeyousuffer]

Judging by the people I've seen, it seems random, though there do seem to be a lot of "colorful" characters. Maybe people are brought here because they're interesting to someone.

You're very curious, aren't you? That's a good trait to have. I'm glad you're having fun and trying new things.

You've forgotten your age? Did something happen to you? If I had to guess, I'd say you were young. Do you know your name?

[smallskull]

then maybe they will come
they're interesting
and rider's hair is colorful

is it?
i think it bothers people sometimes but i just want to learn new things

i don't know if something happened
i don't know my name either
i don't remember anything
waver says its because of trauma but i don't really understand

[seeyousuffer]

[Rider...? Trauma...? Kirei's more than a little interested now.]

Then it sounds very possible they might be brought here, and you'll be able to see them again. Won't that be nice?

I wouldn't be bothered by it.

What district are you in?

You shouldn't have to be alone, especially when you can't remember things. Maybe I can help. My name's Kirei.

[smallskull]

it would be

it's called lochwell
do you want to help?

[seeyousuffer]

Then I'll hope for your sake that they arrive.

I'm in Lochwell, too. I'd like to help, yes. Would you like to meet me?

[ooc: I hope it's not too early for them to meet!]

[smallskull]

how will you help?

[ ooc: nah I'm finding the "separated into districts" thing hard to work around with Amnesiassassin so it's cool ]

Kirei is the worst person :C

[seeyousuffer]

I can show you new things. And I'll look after you. Maybe I can help you remember.

[He's dealt with his share of traumatized children recently.]

WELP I laughed

[smallskull]

what kind of new things?

I'm glad his awfulness can make you laugh ;_;

[seeyousuffer]

What would you like to learn? I can show you all around the district. I've been exploring.

We could play games. I know a lot of games. Or we could find new interesting people together. That's what I like to do.

it makes me laugh all the time :'|

[smallskull]

i don't know
i want to learn everything
i've been exploring too
do you want to explore together?

i don't know many games but i like them
i'd like that too

He's so horrible it's hilarious

[seeyousuffer]

I don't blame you. There's so much to learn. Yes, I'd like to explore together. Why don't you meet me in front of the castle? That's somewhere that's easy to find.

Then we can play games, and I'll try to teach you everything I can. I'll teach you new games, too.

I'm tall and have brown hair, and I'm dressed all in black. I'm a priest, if you know what that is.

pretty much. also do you want to do a log or just thread here?

[smallskull]

ok
i'll go there

[Her excitement doesn't quite carry over text, but she likes the sound of what's being offered. Someone who will explore with her, and teach her things, and play games... That would make her happy.]

[seeyousuffer]

Good. I'll see you soon.

[Kirei isn't sure what he's going to do about this amnesiac, supposedly traumatized child who may or may not have something to do with the War, but he supposes he's going to find out soon.]

[OOC: Hmm, I sort of want to do a log, if that's all right, but would you mind setting it up? I have to get to bed now. If you'd rather I do it, I could put one up sometime later tomorrow, though! I'm fine either way.]

[smallskull]

[Aye-aye, boss!]
