012 - Madokara Mieru
Who: Dhaos sans a few centuries, and a bunch of strangers
What: the young prince has a slight scare, and explores his surroundings
When: Monday morning to early afternoon
Style: brackets, as always
Status: open
[Waking up in a new place can be a scary experience for a child, especially when said child has no memory of how they got there in the first place. This is such the case for Dhaos, now age seven and completely oblivious to any memory of his adult life. The fear that perhaps he had been stolen away by someone - a very real, if unlikely danger to a young prince such as himself - gives way to curiosity. Wouldn't there be someone watching him if he had really been kidnapped? The window was even open a little, and the door didn't have a lock. Being mindful of the large turtleneck he's almost swimming in - goodness, whoever normally wears this thing must be even taller than Father - he opens the door and wanders out into the hall to find out what's going on.
-----
A bit later in the day, he can be found playing out in front of the Vesperia house. He's not too sure about the area yet, and he's had it quite strictly drilled into his head from early on not to wander off alone.]
((ooc: Might make an account for this later on. Will give a heads up if I do.))

[...Well, the man does have a point. Children aren't normally allowed to wander about on their own, are they? Dhaos still isn't sure he entirely trusts him, but he was always taught not to lie.]
...A little. I've never heard of a place like this before. Have you been kidnapped too, sir?
no subject
[Well they've all been kidnapped, but he doesn't want to frighten Dhaos.]
No, no, of course not. I live here. Just down the road, in fact. This city is called Vatheon.
no subject
[That was too much of a pause not to have been a lie. Dhaos may be seven, but he knows how to spot a poorly hidden lie when he sees one.]
...It must have been a while ago when you were kidnapped then, if you have a house. Is it the same for everyone here?
no subject
[Ioder let out an amused sigh at that, nodding.]
I've been here about a year. It does happen that way, yes... people are pulled here from other worlds, and often left for months or years on end.
no subject
Oh.
[Processing...
Processing...]
[Wait...! Other world?! Years?!]
But I don't have years to wait! The castle must be in an uproar as it is! Even if it's nothing more than a month, everyone is sure to worry themselves sick over me!
[Nice one Ioder. The kid seems to be having a slight panic attack.]
no subject
Calm down, calm down... time will stand still in your own world when you're here. When you return it will be as if you've never left. It's complicated, yes, but trust me - you don't need to worry about that.
no subject
Oh...
[Well, that's a bit better, but still pretty distressing for the poor boy.]
...But what will happen to me right now?
no subject
You can stay with me if you wish. I'm sure you'll go home before you know it, but until then I'm more than willing to look out for you.
no subject
[He really shouldn't. Trusting strangers is normally not a good idea after all. But... this man had been nothing but helpful so far, and he was another victim of kidnapping. Hadn't he always heard stories of people in tough situations helping eachother out, even though they're strangers, simply out of the goodness of their hearts?
...And he has no place to go, even if he refuses...]
...Alright. If it won't be too much trouble.
no subject
It won't be at all.
[Ioder smiles and offers his hand.]
