A bit like a bad hangover, without the fun beforehand
Who: Ioder, anyone who wants to find a poor, tied up emperor.
Location: Plaza
Time: 12/31
Style: Starting in prose, but I'll match whatever others want
Status: Open
Damn.
It happened again. Some one who didn't agree with the way he was dealing with the empire, some one who wanted to make a "statement" that thought the way it needed to be done was by kidnapping him.
At least this time his advisers had the forethought to give him bodyguards before he left Zaphias. Sadly they were probably dead. Emperor Ioder Heurassein considered himself lucky to have gotten out with little more than a nasty whack to the back of his head.
For a few minutes, he'd woken long enough to see a dark room with little in the way of furnishings, and feel that his hands were bound behind his back with a rough and scratchy rope and he was against a wall, sitting on the floor. There was something sticky on the back of his neck. Likely blood. He could hear hushed voices in the room, but they were muffled, and consciousness didn't last long enough to hear what they were talking about.
And that's when things got weird. He had the oddest sensation of floating in water, or rather floating through water. And when he woke up again he was sopping wet, clothes heavy, head still aching something awful, and rather than being against a wall he was face down with his arms still bound behind him.
It was highly uncomfortable, to say the least.
But as uncomfortable as it was, it was also confusing, because it was a lot brighter than it had been before, and the ground was much smoother and cooler, too. When he opened his eyes (much to the displeasure of his still pounding head) he was greeted to a very different sight indeed. Everything was so... clean. Almost shining. And he could have easily been mistaken but... was that water beyond the rise of the buildings?
"What--..." he tried to speak, but his voice came out a raspy cough. A green light flitted around his head, almost as if it was worried about him, but he really couldn't make heads or tails of what it was or why it was there.
After a pained groan and a bit of struggling, he was able to sit up with his arms trapped behind his back, staring blearily at the area before him.
That certainly didn't help his confusion any. Where on Terca Lumireis was this?

Okay, so he will say something as he pockets the starfish. ]
... On her way. [ The moment she shows up, duke is going to vanish though. ]

In the next second he was tackled in a hug, and by the time he looked back... Duke was gone.
But the name had been spoken, and it rang equally familiar in his ears.
So... that was Duke...
Something he could concern himself with later then because holy hell his cousin was there. He hugs her back tightly, so grateful to see a familiar face.]
Estellise... I didn't know you were here...
