Who: Serph and YOU
Where: In the Plaza
When: On the 12th!
Style: [action] preferred, but I'll match!
Status: OPEN
[It's been a long time since Serph's disappearance. Maybe it seemed like he wasn't going to be coming back to Vatheon.
But if you happen to be passing through the Plaza, there's someone appearing out of thin air and... falling into one of the fountains with a great splash. If you're curious enough to look at the water, it's gaining a reddish tinge.
...Yeah, that's blood mixing with the water.
But wait long enough, and there's a guy pulling himself out of the fountain, looking like a drowned rat. There's a break in his abdominal armour. But while there are some stubborn bits of blood at the break's edges, there's no wound in the flesh underneath; the skin is unmarked, like it had been healed perfectly.
Serph's back. And he's alive.
...And totally dripping water all over the Plaza again.]

That answer has Gale frowning, though. It's not like Serph to avoid specifics when talking to him. Maybe he does it with Sera or the others, but Gale is the strategist. Serph should know the kind of answer he's looking for.]
Who were you fighting?
no subject
He looks at Gale when he speaks.]
Heat.
[He elaborates.]
It rose from his knowledge of the past we don't remember.
[How can he explain the unease and the conflicted feelings he'd kept from them all, all the way until his death? His altercation with Heat is something personal, something that is difficult to grasp when there's so little he understands.
Serph shakes his head.]
That isn't relevant. Heat is still our comrade.
no subject
[He still trusts Serph, of course- it's just something that needs to be said.]
If circumstances changed, he might again.
But he is of the Embryon. I will not turn against him unless he turns against us.

Serph nods, accepting Gale's response. Zelda hadn't been able to give him a good idea of how long it had been, so he asks--]
How long was I gone?
no subject
[So you can see how the tribe got into so much turmoil.]
no subject
I'll talk to Heat.
[Even if it'll be strange, seeing Heat so soon. But he tilts his head; is there anything else Gale wishes to report?]
no subject
The masquerade occurred while you were gone. There was also a curse. [And here's a list of the general happenings of the bubble as they relate to the tribe.]
no subject
What did you learn from the masquerade?
[Did Gale have fun?]
no subject
[Which means yes, he did.]
