15th moon [voice]

[vibrafinal]

[As far as accidental voice messages go, this one is simple enough.

All that can be heard is the journal falling to the ground, and Cecil screaming in pain.

One cannot be expected to take the sudden and brutal loss of a somewhat telepathic father-son connection gracefully, after all.]

Comments

[weaponry]

Eidolons? Mind going into detail about those?

[ Man, you guys are awfully complex and foreign with your terminology. ]

[paladinlost]

That's the name given to creatures that can be summoned. They have their own city, their own rulers, and their time flows differently.

[weaponry]

Hm. Well, our summons have their own land but I've never actually been to where a summon lives. They also have their own rulers, or some of them do at least. Some of them don't. I do know that time doesn't flow differently there. Their homes are located somewhere in our world, summoning just makes them travel that vast distance instantly.

[paladinlost]

Ours follow time at a different speed because their land is technically in another dimension. Yet beyond that, it seems both of our systems work in the same manner.

[weaponry]

Hm. We have things that are dimensional and space and time techniques back home, like how I summon my weapons, but, it's not actually in a dimension where time is slower. There's also people that are able to hop between dimensions, but I've never actually been inside another dimension so I can't speak for that experience personally.

2/2

[weaponry]

Yeah. Both of our systems are similar, but, we seem to be having a lot of similarities with our worlds here. It's a funny thing how close our worlds are. Have you ever heard of the Sage of the Six Paths?

[paladinlost]

Frankly, had I not been warned, I doubt I would have realized something was different. Their dimension felt much like ours, though none of its inhabitants were human.

[He thinks about it for a few seconds.]

I know of many sages, including one I had the chance to meet in person, but not the Sage of the Six Paths. Is he well known in your world?

[weaponry]

Hm? Really? That's odd. That sounds totally unlike anything I'd ever imagine. I guess this means the other dimensions we travel to are different too.

[ She nods to answer his question. ]

Yeah. He's the creator of ninjutsu, genjutsu and taijutsu. They say he mastered every technique and sealed the ten-tailed beast inside the moon. They say he was superior in every aspect as a ninja. He's such an influential person, he's legendary! If we both knew about him, then I think that'd be a sure link that our worlds are definitely connected.

[paladinlost]

He was a ninja? In this case, Edge would be the most likely person to have heard of him, as the king of the kingdom of Eblan. He'd know at least some of his techniques, if nothing else. If only he was here to give his opinion...

[weaponry]

[ ooc: Sorry about the lateness! DW has been failing me for the past couple of days! ]

Edge? So you know a ninja? Well, he started out as a monk according to most legends. Besides, this would only be plausible if our worlds were connected, but it'd definitely be a surefire way to know if they are.

[paladinlost]

[[A tag is not late unless it's been six months. True fact.]]

I know five, in fact, though the other four are his students. And along with a kingdom of ninjas, we have a kingdom of monks. Any of their inhabitants could easily confirm or infirm any connection.

[weaponry]

[ She giggles. She's definitely enjoying the conversation. ]

That sounds great! Though, monks were absorbed into ninja culture where we're from. They now live in villages which are filled with ninjas but aren't just ninjas.

[paladinlost]

[So is he! ...In a still kinda emotionally numb way.]

I doubt that will happen in my world, unless Edge marries Ursula. And the chances of that are lower than low.

[weaponry]

Edge marries Ursu-huh? [ This kunoichi is definitely lost! ]

[paladinlost]

Ursula is the princess and heir of the monk kingdom of Fabul. However, as she was raised as a sort of niece figure for Edge, I doubt such a marriage would happen.

[In fact, he always thought she'd end up with his son.]

[weaponry]

Hm. Well, I've never really heard of marriages within a family or with family figures so I doubt such a thing would happen here either. I think one monk lead a ninja lifestyle and changed the world and the monks just lived and continued peacefully while the world around them changed. But, I don't know too about monks so I can't really say for sure.

[paladinlost]

Moving from a monk's life to a ninja's sounds like a great step to take... Are his reasons for doing so known, or were they lost in history?

[weaponry]

He originally wanted to use his talents about chakra and ninjutsu for peace. He traveled the world teaching his life style - the shinobi sect - which eventually became known as ninjutsu and lost all religious connotation. He wanted to use the wisdom you could acquire with it for peace instead of war.

[paladinlost]

That's a lovely goal to have, though those rarely achieve their full potential. Is his story well remembered?

[weaponry]

Well, most ninja know about him so yeah, his story definitely is well remembered. A ninja worth their salt should know about him!

[paladinlost]

In that case, Edge should hear about him whenever he can, whether or not this is a point we have in common.

[weaponry]

You really think he would have heard of him even if our worlds have nothing in common?

[paladinlost]

Perhaps not, but he could still learn much from that story.

[weaponry]

Well, I wouldn't be objected to teaching him the story.

[paladinlost]

That would be quite kind of you, miss.
