The Stars...

[A woman in black appears at the gates. It's impossible to tell if she walked up or if just appeared out of the air

So, this is the place. I expected something else. Something ... more well kept.

No matter. This is where the stars have led me. For better or for worse.

Also, I feel... Ah, that was here not too long ago. Perhaps it will come back.

What's with this kooky-soundin' lady...? ... Eeeeh. Still a looker.

Well, someone's exotic to these parts!

[ladyofstars]

[Looks over at Hervey]

The same could be said of you.

[fierce_marauder]

[ TOTALLY mistakes this for reciprocation. ]

Heh! You have a good eye there! Name's Hervey. Yours?

[ladyofstars]

[Rolls her eyes]

I meant that you are not from these parts either.

[fierce_marauder]

[ He doesn't completely catch on with her tone, but seems slightly confused now. ]

Uh... right. Well, y'know, that's true, too.

[ladyofstars]

How did you come to this place?

[fierce_marauder]

To be honest with you, I ain't got a clue. One moment I was on a pier, next I was here.

You never told me your name!

[ladyofstars]

I see.

[thinks this over in silence]

[fierce_marauder]

[ KIND OF STANDING THERE AWKWARDLY. Not sure what to do with his hands. He ends up crossing them in an attempt to be casual. ]

[ladyofstars]

[doesn't appear to notice. Mentally compares Hervery's situation to Shigure's before starting to walk off]

[fierce_marauder]

[ Spluttering a little in absolute confusion. ]

W-what? Is this lady all there...?
