Over a year in this world, and still, there is no sense of purpose, no reason as to why we have all been imprisoned here. A vacant world filled with unknown inhabitants, and... versions of ourselves that seem to vanish or appear as they will.

If we are to be killed, we return.

If we attempt to escape, we fall into a loop.

And the single, one Piece with the inscriptions...

...

[He gives a low, lifeless sigh, looking away from the feed.]

The situation is not short of hopeless.

Really now. Giving up certainly won't get you anywhere.

The reasons may come to light if the inscriptions are completed. Of course I don't expect you'll believe anything I have to say.

[optionalwangst.livejournal.com]

Have you truly given us cause to believe a word you say? Lurking in the shadows, giving cryptic remarks...

[ihasacloak.livejournal.com]

I suppose not.

Being direct wouldn't be any fun.

[optionalwangst.livejournal.com]

...who are you?

[ihasacloak.livejournal.com]

My name is meaningless.

I will not tell you any more until the inscription is complete.

I suppose another year would do no harm.

[ihasacloak.livejournal.com]

It hasn't been quite that long.

Time matters little anyway. It would be a simple thing for you to be put back to the same time you were taken.

[optionalwangst.livejournal.com]

In either case, I am an outcast of time itself. It would not matter, either way.

[ihasacloak.livejournal.com]

Ah. Of course. The coffin sleeping.

Though the mansion does have a reason to be put back before a certain time.

[optionalwangst.livejournal.com]

...at... what point in time had the mansion arrived?

[ihasacloak.livejournal.com]

I hardly pay attention to how the different worlds number their years.

[optionalwangst.livejournal.com]

...I see.
