[The sound of a throat-clearing cough.]

Can anyone tell me about a blue-haired girl who calls herself a soldier?

[But earlier this day--before he makes the voice post--Merlin is out picking up fresh ingredients for Arthur's evening meal. He is in the shop, picking through some vegetables. He looks...confused.]

Yes. And apparently, she is also a sorceress.

[floralprophecy.livejournal.com]

A sorceress? Where did you hear of this?

[awaitingalbion.livejournal.com]

My employer claims that she used magic against him.

[floralprophecy.livejournal.com]

... was this girl wearing a rather short skirt?

[awaitingalbion.livejournal.com]

I...don't know? [So helpful, Merlin.]

[floralprophecy.livejournal.com]

... though I suppose it might be her since it seems like a number of people are talking about her.

What are you going to do when you find her?

[awaitingalbion.livejournal.com]

I want to figure out why she did it.

[floralprophecy.livejournal.com]

I see... I have been wondering about that myself.

[awaitingalbion.livejournal.com]

Why? Has she attacked someone you know?

[floralprophecy.livejournal.com]

She drained me of my energy.

[awaitingalbion.livejournal.com]

You, too?

[floralprophecy.livejournal.com]

Yes, I thought she was injured and wanted to help her and the next thing I knew I was unconscious on the ground.

[awaitingalbion.livejournal.com]

I wonder how many she got.

[floralprophecy.livejournal.com]

Quite a few judging from what I've been hearing over the journals.

[awaitingalbion.livejournal.com]

I had thought this place wasn't so bad.

[floralprophecy.livejournal.com]

Well, it's pleasant most of the time...

[awaitingalbion.livejournal.com]

Even with all this danger?

[floralprophecy.livejournal.com]

Yes. It's not dangerous all the time and despite everyone coming from such diverse worlds, we all get along rather well.

[awaitingalbion.livejournal.com]

Just how many people are stuck here?

[floralprophecy.livejournal.com]

Hmm... I'm not sure of the exact figures. I suppose three to four hundred?

[awaitingalbion.livejournal.com]

Wow.

[Need some time to take that in.]

[floralprophecy.livejournal.com]

Yet still we are unable to defeat the Malnosso.

[awaitingalbion.livejournal.com]

Are they really so powerful that so many people have yet to find a way?

[floralprophecy.livejournal.com]

Yes.

[awaitingalbion.livejournal.com]

This doesn't bode well. Not well at all. [A pause.] There has got to be some way.
