1st Focus // [Accidental Video/Voice]

[Enter Serah Farron, L'cie, enemy of Cocoon. She seems to be lost... and really confused, of course.]

Where is this place....? I'm.... alive? How am I alive? I completed my Focus, didn't I?

[Serah took a moment to try to understand her situation. It was... weird. That was to say the least]

I thought that I... turned into crystal. I don't understand what's going on.

[She looked around. Not only was she alive, she was also in an odd new place. She took the bandage off her arm. The L'cie mark seemed burned or scorched over.]

Hello?! Can anybody help me? Does this mean I still have my Focus?

[The comm goes out over time.]

Lets see... well, for starters, this mansion has supposedly called us here in order to feed off of our memories. When it does so, strange events happen. Some of them are dangerous, others, not so much.

Haha... well, I know it's a lot to take in, so, I'll try to take it slow for you.

No, I think I understand. So the events are often based on other people's memories, but many of them are dangerous... right?

That's right. And whatever memory causes it is the one the mansion devours.

There's one other danger I've had the misfortune of coming across as well. That is the Mirror realm, or whatever you want to call it. The people who came here also have mirror selves that live on the other side of the mirrors in this place. And as it might suggest, their personalities and wishes are often the exact opposite of their counterpart's wishes. There are times when they can cross over, or be seen on this side. You should be wary of them. If you aren't careful, they might try to fool you or worse.

Or... worse? Even... Does that mean that even I have one...?

It's quite possible. From what I've seen, anyone who comes here can have one. Maybe even everyone who enters this place does. I can't be sure. But I do know that they always seem to cause trouble whenever they do appear.

Everyone has one. The mansion makes sure to have accommodations for everyone it drags in. It has a habit of changing to fit your tastes. And you can go to the closet for anything you need. It will give you whatever you ask for, really.

Oh, that's good. I don't think I've caught your name.

I'm Serah Farron.

It's quite convenient.

Ah. That's right. I'm Vincent Nightray. It's a pleasure to meet you Miss Serah.

It's nice to meet you too, Vincent.

If you don't mind me asking... what is this "Focus" you kept mentioning? And what is a... Cie'th?

A Focus is what is given to a Pulse L'cie. They have to figure out what the vague vision has shown and complete what it shows... or you turn into a monsterish creature called a Cie'th...

If you succeed, you become crystal, graced with eternal life, or so they say.

If you fail... well... you become a Cie'th instead.

Ah... that seems rather difficult. Even so, I doubt those rules hold true here. After all, this is something of a different world. And no one really knows how long they'll be stuck here. So I wouldn't worry about that too much.

[identity profile] crystal-stasis.livejournal.com 2010-08-11 09:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah... but I can't help but still worry a little. A L'cie... it's like a ticking timebomb ready to blow up at any given minute. Even if the rules may not apply here, I can't be completely certain that I'm cleared.
