1st Night [action]

[When Loki finally reaches the outskirts of Luceti, he's scratched up, hungry, tired, and above all, cranky.]

Damn you... Heim...

[And without further ado, he collapses.

How does one react to a child in New Feather garb lying motionless on the floor?]

You've been out here for days?

More precisely, in the mountains.

The mountains? I didn't know they put New Feathers all the way up there...

I wouldn't know anything about that. But if you could point me in the direction of food and clothing, that would be helpful...

Sure. You can go to the Welcome Centre for food and all the clothes are the stores are free.

Perfect. Where's the Welcome Centre?

Follow me! [leads towards the village] But don't you want to find some clothes first?

Ah, that's important too. But there wasn't much food in the mountains, you understand.

Ahh~ I see. Well, they always have food prepared at the centre. [and still lading, leading]

How convenient. And there's no currency here, I hear?

[and the village comes into view] It is especially for those who can't cook. Yes, no money. No rents to play.

But in exchange, you give up your freedom... It sounds almost like a prison paradise.

Yes... that's a good way to put it. Ah, that's the Welcome Centre. [points towards it]

Oh, I see. Thanks.

[smiles] Let's go together? I'm kind of hungry too.

Ah. Why not?

My name is Loki. What's yours?

It's nice to meet you, Loki. I'm Kantarou! That's an interesting name you have there. Loki like the Norse God?

How surprising! Most Japanese don't make the connection. It's a good name, isn't it?

Well, I know a bit about it as it's part of what I do. It's a nice name.

Oh? What is it that you do, Kantarou?

Well, I'm a folklorist.

That's a rare profession nowadays.

It is?

Most people don't seem to care for those types of stories anymore.

Well, enough of them do or I wouldn't have been able to sell any books.
