Won't anyone come and soothe my pain?

Who: Hubert Ozwell, OPEN
Where: Plaza
When: Late afternoon
Style: Fine with anything
Status: Open

Another new arrival, another person waterlogged in the plaza. Today it's a young man, no older than seventeen or eighteen, in a heavy uniform of some sort that might actually be familiar to a few people in Vatheon. There's a pair of glasses near by, having fallen off his face at some point, and a very large double-bladed staff weapon under his right hand as if he'd been holding on to it moments before.

There's a small problem, though.

He's unconscious. And not moving.

What do, Vatheonites?

[He nods, as he is in a similar situation himself.]

Yes, I see what you mean. But it's likely your friends aren't here. Or not yet. I was with several persons too, but it seems that only one of them is here. Maybe there's another one, but I haven't seen him yet.

[dualbladepaladin]

[Oh, who knows what kind of trouble they're getting in to without him? He can hardly stand to think of it!

But he does keep surprisingly calm, outwardly at least.]

Then I suppose there's nothing I can do at this time about it.

[cheapshinigami]

[Tatsumi would agree with his thoughts.]

Yes, hopefully you will find them. Or maybe it's better if they stay at home.

[dualbladepaladin]

... at this point, I'm honestly not sure which is the better option.

[cheapshinigami]

I understand. Let's hope for the best then.

[dualbladepaladin]

Yes.

[Though Hubert doesn't put much stock in simple optimism. He's not going to say anything about that.]

Well... now I'm not sure what to do about myself in this situation.

[cheapshinigami]

[He shrugs. He just asked himself the same thing a while short ago.]

Probably finding a place to live would be the best choice.

[dualbladepaladin]

I'm... not entirely sure how to go about something like that.

[He pretty much had everything in that sense provided for him back home. And when he wasn't with his parents he was with the military.]

[cheapshinigami]

I heard that there are several buildings in the lower and middle districts. Those are the third and second tiers of this place. And apparently we don't have to pay rent. [Which he doesn't understand at all.]

[dualbladepaladin]

Rent doesn't have to be paid? Odd... but fortuitous those of who have just arrived, I suppose.

Have you looked at these accommodations yourself?

[cheapshinigami]

Well, that is what I heard. I have to yet to see it for myself. I'm actually on my way to find a place to live. I was suggested to look at Yutopil appartments.

[dualbladepaladin]

Yutopil Apartments...

[Hubert files this information away quietly.]

I may have to investigate these apartments later. I want to see if I can locate my friends here first.

[cheapshinigami]

Yes, I understand. Well, I shall be on my way off then. I hope you'll find them soon.

[dualbladepaladin]

Yes, thank you.

[Hubert gives a curt bow and turns to leave the area]

[cheapshinigami]

Good luck, Ozwell-san. [He bows too and goes on his way.]
