Welcome to Gaia! ::

Marco covered his mouth at the language the legionaire spoke about his book, then grabbed the purple binding and placing it in his coat. He hid it, hoping the others didn't see it. He placed his thumbs behind the straps of his backpack and then slowly walked towards the palace and looked at the glowing ring, deeply enticed by it. Then shook his head as he saw others were talking to each other, then bowed his head feeling a bit alone.

Marco's head popped up in surprise when the woman speaking to him. He looked at her a bit nervous, thoughts ran through his head on how to introduce himself. He was a man of religion, but everyone hated religion and thus everyone hated him. He turned to the woman named Atlanta and took a heavy breath.

"Me named is Marco!" He said, not realizing that he was so nervous he spoke like a two year old. He held his hand out, his stupid smile returned. He stood like a statue waiting for her response.

I listen to everyone introduce themselves, trying to commit their voices to memory. Since I couldn't see them, I had to use other menas to identify names, and voices were usually the easiest to remember. It seemed that my name situation was much simple then normal, since they all seemed to have names of human cultures. It's usually pretty easy to pick out an anthro's voice anyways, since they tended to reflect the animal they are, though I have met a few from my dad's tribe that had very human like voices. I almost wondered if I should give them my tribal name anyways...

Kirino:
The hooded man ushers you toward the inner doors. As you move down the hall, the front doors close. Should you choose to look back, you would see the man's Violet Ring glowing brightly, clearly acting as the door-closer. When you reach the inner doors, everyone else is there. The harpy is on a pillar, though. You do not know anyone's name yet.
We're all in various time zones, so don't worry about it.

Everyone:
The hooded man comes up behind Kirino, though you do not know her name. The man holds his ring hand up with the Violet Ring pointed at the symbol in the center of the doors.
"Hi'ata!" he cries.
The rune in the center of the eye lights up and the doors slowly open. Beyond, you see a number of people in fancy nobles' clothes.
Note: "Hi'ata" is Illusorian for "open," but none of you know that yet.

Moriah:
You notice two people coming toward the group, but it is hard to tell from where. You hear the man's cry, but do not understand it. You hear the doors opening, and feel strange distortions in the vibrations around you.

Everyone:
"Enter," the hooded man says. "But do not approach them. Wait in a line before them."

Moriah:
You realize that you will need someone to help you get into the line.

Marco didn't understand what the hooded man said, but he had just heard the word Hi, which caught his attention. He looked around, he had never heard of anyone named Ata. He turned his vision and saw a confused girl, and everyone walking forward except for her. He placed his index finger on his chin, then smiled. Strolling over to Moriah,

"Hello! My name is Marco! Do you need some help?" He asked, grinning happily at her and offering his hand to her.

Moriah:
You hear the voices of Maxwell and Marco, each from opposite sides of you. Both are offering you help.

Everyone:
Please note that many syllables found in the Illusorian language are read and pronounced like Japanese. Thus, "Hi'ata," is read as (roughly), "he-ah-tah." It was my mistake for not mentioning this before. I will include pronunciations with all of the words from now on.

Maxwell:
Moriah's hand is soft, but her nails are long and sharp, as though she doesn't trim them often.

Moriah:
Maxwell's hand is rough, as though he's used them for hard labor everyday for years.
