[Being kidnapped for nearly two weeks was not Cloche's ideal vacation from Luceti. Neither was being dropped into a cold fountain in a New Feather dress, for that matter. Had she been unconscious when that happened - and she had been! - she wasn't any longer. Cloche flails and yells - or she thinks she does - and flops around like a fish out of water before realizing where she was. Then... oh, yeah it's cold! Practically leaps out of the water. She'll wrap her arms around herself, and start the trudge back to her room.]



[A little later, once she gets back home and into warmer clothes, she'll be writing in her journal, most strange for her.]

I've been returned.

... the Malnosso have taken my ability to speak. I guess it was for talking back to them while I was in their... "care" for nearly two weeks.

[At least, that would be her guess.]

[Kain tries to act like it doesn't bother him, but of course it does.]

...Yes. I have. During the invasion of this place, and on drafts.

[A pause, and he feels a need to add.]

But I've always returned.

Well you'd have to, from what I've read. But when was this penalty from? Can't you get them removed?

[Written]

[dragoon_pride]

Yes, and I've already had two of them removed... so far.

[So he's... already died more than once? That's really depressing, actually.]

So you've died more than once here. I'm sorry.

[She means that, too.]

[Kain's existence can be a pretty depressing thing sometimes.]

It's all right. It's the burden that I must bear... all of those times I failed to stay alive.

You can have them removed though. Why not regain your voice? Or were there worse ones that you acquired?

[Written]

[dragoon_pride]

The others were far worse and thus important to remove as soon as it was possible.
