10:37:09 AM <Complete_Zero> Dr. Lehman's voice sounds over the intercom. <<Would Agents Groft and Re come to my lab, as well as an available agent. Lab number 17/>>
10:37:47 AM <Complete_Zero> He waits in his lab.
10:38:09 AM <Nanoro> Max looks up after hobbling back to a stable position. Guess he is available.
10:38:15 AM <Nanoro> He hauls himself over!
10:39:08 AM <KadeLeMuse> Marion goes to Lehman's lab. They're trembling a bit.
10:39:19 AM <Complete_Zero> Dr. Lehman stands there in  his lab coat. He's got brown swept back hair and deep blue eyes. He looks to be in his thirties.
10:39:44 AM <Nanoro> Max meets them in the hall. "Heard they needed some'un available. Dropped by."
10:39:44 AM <DiePotato> Isa follows, fidgeting
10:40:21 AM <KadeLeMuse> Marion runs over to the room and brings Lehman back the scroll.
10:41:27 AM <Complete_Zero> "Good, you are here." He looks to Max, "I am Dr. Vincent Lehman. Pleasure. You'll be going into another dimension today."
10:41:50 AM <Nanoro> "... Ah." :l "That's nice."

10:42:23 AM <DiePotato> "It'll be fine Maxwell." Isa smiles weakly and continues to fidget.
10:42:26 AM <KadeLeMuse> Marion tries  to smile and wave at Maxwell. They're trembling too much to do it effectively.
10:42:41 AM <Complete_Zero> "Is everything alright?"
10:42:50 AM <DiePotato> "Uh, no."
10:43:16 AM <DiePotato> "Got targeted by an anomaly... Uh. It's not good to say the least."
10:43:31 AM <KadeLeMuse> Marion nodnods along with that.
10:44:23 AM <Complete_Zero> "Are you ready to speak to the Prince?"
10:44:32 AM <DiePotato> "Uh, maybe?"
10:45:09 AM <Complete_Zero> "... Ms. Re, you wanted to do this."
10:45:35 AM <DiePotato> "Yeah that was before a fucking anomaly decided to fuck with me and Marion." Isa frowns
10:46:22 AM <Complete_Zero> "Alright. When you are ready, step through the portal. I will open it now."
10:46:44 AM <KadeLeMuse> Marion takes deep breaths again and gets themselves back together. "..I'll be good."
10:47:02 AM <DiePotato> ~Did he not hear a word I just said?~ Isa rolls her eyes and heads for the portal.
10:47:14 AM <Hankolijo> Leo wanders into Lehman's lab, whistling. "needed an agent or something?"
10:47:20 AM <Complete_Zero> He nods and opens the portal.
10:47:30 AM <Complete_Zero> "Just in time, Agent Striker."
10:47:57 AM <KadeLeMuse> Marion smiles and waves at a Leonard, if a bit weakly.
10:48:24 AM <Hankolijo> Leo nods. "Right, what're we doing, exactly?" He eyes the portal.
10:49:10 AM <KadeLeMuse> "Talking to a prince, getting the second side of a political story."

10:51:29 AM <DiePotato> Isa heads through taking deep breaths
10:51:32 AM <KadeLeMuse> Marion nods. After a few more minutes, they step into the portal.
10:51:41 AM <Hankolijo> Leo follows.
10:52:46 AM <Complete_Zero> As you walk through, there is a flash of light. On the other side you walk onto a field just outside of a large town that looks vaguely Victorian and mechanical with a touch of magic.
10:53:13 AM <DiePotato> "Ooookay, so we need to find the docks."
10:53:15 AM <Hankolijo> Leo glances around. "Hm. Nice place."
10:53:35 AM <KadeLeMuse> The entire time,Marion is still taking deep breaths. "...In the courtard of the castle, right?"
10:53:46 AM <KadeLeMuse> That's what I thought hesaid.

10:54:50 AM <DiePotato> "Something like that I think."
10:55:18 AM <KadeLeMuse> Marion nods and starts walking that way.
10:55:23 AM <Complete_Zero> "Yes." Lehman appears to have followed you through.
10:55:40 AM <Hankolijo> Leo shrugs and follows.
10:55:48 AM <KadeLeMuse> "!!!" Startled birb noise!
10:56:03 AM <DiePotato> "Uh, we got someone to open it again?"
10:56:10 AM <Hankolijo> He glances back. "Oh, hey, Lehman."
10:56:25 AM <Complete_Zero> "Yes. I have configured it to open it from here as well."
10:56:39 AM <DiePotato> "Aaaalrighty. Lead the way Marion."
10:57:18 AM <KadeLeMuse> Marion nods and continues walking to the castle courtyard!
10:57:29 AM <Complete_Zero> "I won't follow you, but follow the side road to the courtyard and enter the docking area. His Airship is called 'The Wanderer'."
10:57:50 AM <DiePotato> Isa follows directions!
10:58:11 AM <KadeLeMuse> Marion does the same as Isa!
10:58:20 AM <Hankolijo> Leonard does as well!
10:59:44 AM <Complete_Zero> The side road is pretty much the size of an average two-lane road. There are brick sidewalks running the length of the road. Vehicles pass by on the road itself and people look at you with awe as you walk by.
11:00:00 AM <DiePotato> "We really need to get some clothes from here in order to fit in better."
11:00:31 AM <Complete_Zero> There is a clothing store just up ahead.
11:00:46 AM <Complete_Zero> 'Arlethian Tailor'
11:01:13 AM <Complete_Zero> It is, in fact, closed.
11:01:18 AM <KadeLeMuse> "Maybe the next time?"
11:01:41 AM <DiePotato> "Yeah. We also need money."
11:02:13 AM <Complete_Zero> You can hear some whispers around you, calling you the 'otherworlders.'
11:02:36 AM <DiePotato> "Eegh. Can't wait for the pitchforks to come out." Isa whispers
11:02:45 AM <Hankolijo> Leo sideglances at the whisperers. He shrugs internally and keeps following along.
11:02:53 AM <KadeLeMuse> Marion smiles and waves at the people whispering at them.
11:03:17 AM <Complete_Zero> The people just walk on by.
11:03:49 AM <KadeLeMuse> They shrug and continue on their journey!!
11:04:09 AM <Complete_Zero> Eventually, if you keep walking, you'll get to a very tall warehouse like building with veeery large openings in the front.
11:04:22 AM <Complete_Zero> IT's about 5 stories tall.

11:12:34 AM <Complete_Zero> They step back into place behind you.
11:12:51 AM <Complete_Zero> The ship is made entirely of metal, it seems.
11:13:12 AM <KadeLeMuse> They look over it,also looking for signs of the prince.

11:14:28 AM <Complete_Zero> Engineers squeeze past you as you walk by, giving you a quick sideglance. There are signs that point right, leading to the bridge.
11:14:46 AM <DiePotato> Isa follows said signs!
11:14:54 AM <KadeLeMuse> Marion smiles and waves at the engineers, then walks to the bridge.
11:14:58 AM <Hankolijo> Leonard follows Isa, humming.
11:15:33 AM <Complete_Zero> At the end of a walkway, passing over a glowing, vibrating orb is a set of ladders, leading up.
11:15:56 AM <DiePotato> ~Engine? Power source?~
11:16:07 AM <KadeLeMuse> Marion blinks in interest at the orb,but then goes up the ladder.
11:16:33 AM <Hankolijo> "Huh. Could that be what's keeping this thing up?" Leo also goes up the ladder.
11:16:57 AM <DiePotato> "No idea." Isa climbs
11:17:19 AM <KadeLeMuse> "Wouldn't be surprising."
11:17:46 AM <Complete_Zero> At the top is a very well decorated and lit room. It would be the life of luxury, if not for the faint smell of oil.
11:18:17 AM <Complete_Zero> Sitting in a couch is Prince Rohne, reading over some documents.
11:18:35 AM <Hankolijo> ~Fancy.~
11:18:50 AM <KadeLeMuse> Marion smiles as the glance around it briefly before smiling at the prince. "Hello, Prince Rohne."
11:19:10 AM <KadeLeMuse> They nod their head at him gently.
11:19:33 AM <DiePotato> Isa would consider this luxury. Oil's luxurious
11:19:53 AM <Complete_Zero> He looks up and smiles brightly. "Welcome, otherworlders! Welcome, to 'The Wanderer'!"
11:20:06 AM <Hankolijo> Leonard nods to the prince.
11:20:32 AM <Complete_Zero> "She is a beauty, is she not?"
11:20:40 AM <KadeLeMuse> Marion doesn't think it has enough plants and animals to be luxurious. They smile at him anyways. "Thank you. It is quite beautiful."
11:21:05 AM <DiePotato> "She is." Isa smiles
11:21:14 AM <KadeLeMuse> *quite magnificent.
11:21:15 AM <Hankolijo> "Yes indeed."

11:28:49 AM <Complete_Zero> A beautiful lady in an elegant 16th century dress comes into view, she has long black hair and silver eyes. It's Viviane. "Brother, I told you, they cannot help us."

12:15:58 PM <DiePotato> Isa tilts her head. "Hmmm, is that all he thinks you are naive in doing?"
12:16:03 PM <Complete_Zero> The princess glances at Leo too, smiling.
12:16:29 PM <Complete_Zero> "I would often debate with him. I still do."
12:17:16 PM <KadeLeMuse> Marion watches Leo and Viviane. ~Cuuute.~
12:18:02 PM <Hankolijo> Blink. He smiles back slightly, honestly /very/ confused.

12:18:10 PM <DiePotato> ~Only natural I suppose, not everyone can get along.~ "So we are to help you in order to uphold your land's tradition?"
12:18:35 PM <Complete_Zero> "Please. If you can."

12:20:11 PM <DiePotato> "If we're to help you we're going to need promises for when you take the throne. While I would love to help you out of the goodness of my heart the people we work for value results."
12:21:40 PM <Complete_Zero> "No, miss. The throne is not mine to take."
12:21:57 PM <Complete_Zero> "It is for my sister."
12:22:05 PM <DiePotato> "...Ohhhhhh."
12:23:02 PM <Complete_Zero> "But, seeing as my father will not allow this. I will have to deal with that."
12:23:29 PM <Hankolijo> Leonard, who has found himself only half-paying attention, blinks. ~Huh.~
12:23:35 PM <DiePotato> "Does... Anyone else know that you want your sister to take the throne?"
12:23:57 PM <KadeLeMuse> ~....tRAditioN?? 6-9~
12:24:03 PM <Complete_Zero> " No. Only us."
12:24:12 PM <DiePotato> "...Ohhhhhhhhhhh..."
12:26:25 PM <Complete_Zero> "Can you promise to help us?"
12:27:27 PM <KadeLeMuse> Marion glances at Isa again questioningly.
12:27:37 PM <DiePotato> "Um." Isa thinks for a moment. "Like I said we need results in order to help you." She turns to the sister. "In order to help you we need to make sure what we get what we need."
12:27:59 PM <Complete_Zero> " And that would be?"
12:30:07 PM <DiePotato> "Unlimited access to all the knowledge you've ever recorded."
12:31:11 PM <KadeLeMuse> "And Vizekahn's- The Trickster's- cane by helping us defeat Oracle."
12:31:56 PM <Hankolijo> Leo has no clue what either of them are talking about at this point. Oh well.
12:32:13 PM <Complete_Zero> "The first I can help with. The second? I am no fighter, but I will attempt to aid you in some manner."

12:33:10 PM <KadeLeMuse> Marion smiles and nods.
12:33:22 PM <DiePotato> Isa nods as well.
12:33:46 PM <Complete_Zero> "Do we have a deal?" Rohne asks.
12:33:48 PM <Hankolijo> Leo nods too. Agreeing to... Something about something. Or something. :|
12:35:03 PM <DiePotato> Isa rubs her chin more and thinks
12:35:42 PM <Complete_Zero> "There is another detail you may want to consider." He says.
12:35:49 PM <KadeLeMuse> Marion looks at Isa like. 'Your thouhgts?'
12:35:51 PM <DiePotato> "Oh? What would that be?"
12:36:06 PM <KadeLeMuse> Marion looks at the prince again curiously.
12:36:23 PM <Complete_Zero> " I suspect that Roanoke is a disciple of Oracle."
12:36:40 PM <DiePotato> ~..../perfect/~
12:37:11 PM <DiePotato> "What makes you think that?"
12:37:28 PM <Hankolijo> ~Who the fuck is the oracle again?~ :|
12:38:10 PM <Complete_Zero> "I eavesdrop on him, trying to find something to put him out of the court. He spoke about Oracle like an authority figure."
12:38:28 PM <KadeLeMuse> Marion's eyebrows raise. ~... he did seem to know up to what day and time the framing was going to happen on...~
12:38:59 PM <DiePotato> "...Hm."
12:39:33 PM <KadeLeMuse> They glance again at Isa.
12:39:45 PM <DiePotato> ~This... changes things~
12:39:50 PM <DiePotato> "You have a deal."
12:40:01 PM <KadeLeMuse> "Agreed."
12:40:16 PM <Complete_Zero> They both smile. "Thank you, otherworlder!"
12:40:19 PM <Hankolijo> Leonard nods once more!
12:41:01 PM <Complete_Zero> "See Viviane? I said we could trust them"
12:42:12 PM <KadeLeMuse> Marion smiles too. They nudgenudge Leonard and whisper to him, "You and the Queen-to-be would make a cute couple."
12:42:37 PM <KadeLeMuse> "You should write some poetry for her."
12:42:41 PM <Hankolijo> Leonard blinks.
12:42:55 PM <Hankolijo> "I think I will." He whispers back.
12:43:24 PM <Complete_Zero> " I will call for you when needed, okay?"
12:43:42 PM <DiePotato> "Uh, wait."
12:43:50 PM <Complete_Zero> " Hm?"
12:43:55 PM <KadeLeMuse> Marion smiles and nods at him slightly before focusing on the conversation again.
12:44:19 PM <DiePotato> "One moment." Isa leans over to Marion. "Should we warn them that the Advisor is onto them?" She whispers
12:45:27 PM <KadeLeMuse> "...If we're really allying with them, I think we should. It's only fair to be honest in return for their honesty."
12:45:45 PM <DiePotato> "Ehhhh fine."
12:45:55 PM <Complete_Zero> Viviane gets up to get a drink from the back.
12:45:56 PM <Hankolijo> Leo glances at the other two.
12:46:11 PM <DiePotato> Isa leans back and sits up straight. "The uh, Advisor is onto you."
12:46:50 PM <Complete_Zero> "I'm sure. This is why I asked for your help. He will not expect you."
12:47:22 PM <DiePotato> "No, like. He came to us before we came to you."
12:47:29 PM <KadeLeMuse> "He thinks you are going to try to place something incriminating in his things in a few days time. He asked us to try to stop you."
12:47:46 PM <KadeLeMuse> "Or, well, catch you in the act."
12:47:53 PM <Complete_Zero> "Did he now?"
12:48:06 PM <KadeLeMuse> They nod.
12:48:31 PM <Complete_Zero> "That's liable for acting against the royal family."
12:49:09 PM <Complete_Zero> " It would add up against him."
12:51:20 PM <Complete_Zero> "I think I know how to get him. If you won't mind me asking for help now."
12:51:40 PM <DiePotato> "We don't mind."
12:51:43 PM <KadeLeMuse> Marion nods. "Of course not."
12:51:59 PM <Complete_Zero> Viviane sits back down with a cup of tea.
12:52:09 PM <Hankolijo> Leonard also nods. He's lost in the conversation.
12:53:22 PM <Complete_Zero> "I need you to find a way to put more charges against him. Perhaps, when he talks to so, e
12:53:40 PM <Complete_Zero> some of the guards behind the scenes."*
12:57:26 PM <KadeLeMuse> "So, gather incriminating testimonies or witness this happening?"
12:58:28 PM <DiePotato> Isa can get that
12:58:34 PM <Complete_Zero> "Either will work. But, gathering evidence would do nicely."
1:00:34 PM <KadeLeMuse> They nod. "Alright."
1:00:45 PM <DiePotato> "We'll do what we can."
1:01:06 PM <Hankolijo> "Yeah." Leo finds himself looking at Viviane again.
1:01:31 PM <Complete_Zero> "Thank you... what are your names? I'd hate to keep calling you otherworlders."
1:01:48 PM <DiePotato> "Isa."
1:01:59 PM <Hankolijo> "Leonard."
1:02:09 PM <KadeLeMuse> Marion smiles. "Marion."
1:03:23 PM <Complete_Zero> "Good to know."
1:04:06 PM <Complete_Zero> "If anyone asks, you came to learn more about our culture."
1:04:21 PM <DiePotato> "Of course."
1:04:29 PM <Hankolijo> Leo nods.
1:05:11 PM <KadeLeMuse> "Which is true, in some part. The best lie is a truth." They smile.
1:05:32 PM <Complete_Zero> They both stand. "Thank you for coming. I'm sure you have things to do yourself,  correct?" Rohne says.
1:06:09 PM <DiePotato> "Yes, unfotunatenly." She stands
1:06:28 PM <Complete_Zero> " Is there anything you need?"
1:06:35 PM <Hankolijo> Leo nods and stands as well, still watching the princess.
1:06:42 PM <Complete_Zero> "Would you like to learn more about anything?"
1:07:03 PM <Complete_Zero> She doesn't notice.
1:07:17 PM <DiePotato> "Not at the moment I think."
1:08:33 PM <Complete_Zero> "Alright, then. If you do wish to learn more about our engineering, you can come back here. I myself am an engineer."
1:08:36 PM <KadeLeMuse> They nod and stand as well. "Personally, I'm interested in knowing about the flora and fauna of this world. But that can wait."
1:09:10 PM <DiePotato> "Yes we have things to attend to." ~GODDAMN ANOMALIES~
1:10:15 PM <KadeLeMuse> "..I think Leonard would like a private chat with Viviane, though."
1:10:20 PM <Complete_Zero> "If you want to know more about the flora and fauna, you could visit the Erdinan someday."
1:10:27 PM <Hankolijo> Leonard blinks.
1:10:31 PM <Complete_Zero> Viviane looks surprised.
1:10:51 PM <DiePotato> Isa doesn't say anything
1:11:02 PM <Complete_Zero> Rohne looks unamused.
1:11:28 PM <DiePotato> "We have to go, Marion."
1:11:56 PM <KadeLeMuse> Marion nods. "Alright."
1:11:58 PM <Complete_Zero> Viviane smiles at Leo before getting a look from her brother.
1:12:24 PM <Hankolijo> Leo rubs the back of his neck awkwardly. He smiles back awkwardly as well.
1:12:36 PM <DiePotato> Isa leads the way out.
1:13:02 PM <Complete_Zero> You get out to the catwalk where you are greeted by Lehman.
1:13:12 PM <Hankolijo> "Uh. I hope to see you seen." He bows his head slightly before heading off after Isa.
1:14:00 PM <KadeLeMuse> Marion follows too!
1:15:41 PM <Complete_Zero> Leonard, from the ship there are quick footsteps approaching you.
1:16:00 PM <Hankolijo> Leo blinks and looks towards the sound of the footsteps.
1:16:21 PM <KadeLeMuse> Marion glances at them quietly.
1:16:43 PM <DiePotato> Isa stops and turns
1:18:01 PM <Complete_Zero> It's the princess. She walks up to you and places a small kiss on your cheek. "I do hope to see you again." She says, beaming.   Then she walks back in and turns the corner.
1:18:12 PM SleepWolf → GreenWolf
1:18:31 PM <Hankolijo> Leo blinks. And smiles. :D
1:18:36 PM <DiePotato> "........."
1:18:45 PM <DiePotato> Isa throws her hands in the air and heads out
1:19:10 PM <Complete_Zero> Lehman stands outside.
1:19:31 PM <KadeLeMuse> Marion grins slightly, but follows. "C'mon, Casanova!"
1:19:48 PM <Hankolijo> After standing there for a moment, smiling, he blinks and heads over to the others.
1:20:32 PM <Complete_Zero> "Well? What happened?" Lehman asks.
1:20:55 PM <DiePotato> "We had a good discussion over culture."
1:21:19 PM <KadeLeMuse> "Yep!"
1:21:25 PM <Hankolijo> :D
1:21:29 PM <Complete_Zero> "I thought you said you were going to get his side of the story?"
1:21:41 PM <DiePotato> "Whose side of what story?"
1:21:45 PM <DiePotato> Isa winks
1:22:05 PM <Complete_Zero> "... Let's head back, then."
1:22:15 PM <KadeLeMuse> "Agreed!"
1:22:29 PM <DiePotato> Isa nods and follows
1:22:43 PM <Hankolijo> Leonard just follows, still smiling. :D
1:22:51 PM <Complete_Zero> They trek back through the town to the field oitside.
1:23:14 PM <Complete_Zero> Where Lehman fires up the portal again.
1:24:26 PM <Hankolijo> Leonard steps through the portal. :D
1:24:48 PM <KadeLeMuse> Marion steps through!
1:25:02 PM <Complete_Zero> Your back in the lab.
1:25:05 PM <DiePotato> Isa steps through and once she's through, collapses into a lab stool
1:25:52 PM <KadeLeMuse> Marion runs over to her worriedly. "You alright?"
1:26:03 PM <Complete_Zero> "What happened? Are you alright? Why is Agent Striker smiling?"
1:26:08 PM <Hankolijo> :D
1:26:40 PM <DiePotato> "Ugggghhhhh." Isa flops her arms. "Politiiiiics
1:28:50 PM <Complete_Zero> The portal shuts down.
1:29:06 PM <KadeLeMuse> They nod."We found out his side of the story and came to a decision, though."
1:33:05 PM <Complete_Zero> "And?"
1:33:22 PM <Hankolijo> :D
1:35:51 PM <DiePotato> "Ugggghhhhhhh."
1:36:25 PM <DiePotato> "We sided with the prince and upcoming monarch."
1:36:44 PM <Complete_Zero> "Not the Advisor?"
1:36:44 PM <KadeLeMuse> "We agreed to help him, and part of that is finding incriminating evidence on Roanoke. We think he might be a disciple of Oracle. Also, Leonard may have found a princess who is into him.""
1:36:55 PM <Hankolijo> :D
1:37:02 PM <DiePotato> "Lucky..."
1:37:25 PM <Complete_Zero> "... you play a dangerous game, Agent Striker."
1:37:54 PM <Hankolijo> "I'm no stranger to danger, Dr. Lehman." :D
1:37:59 PM <KadeLeMuse> "Isa, if the princess was into you, Clyde would get very jealous."
1:38:36 PM <DiePotato> "I know..."
1:38:54 PM <DiePotato> "That was a sarcastic lucky."
1:39:27 PM <KadeLeMuse> "Did we mention we're going t ohelp Rohne put said princess on the throne as queen?"
1:39:53 PM <Complete_Zero> "No. You didn't. This is interesting."
1:40:18 PM <KadeLeMuse> "What did you do?
1:41:01 PM <Complete_Zero> "I read on their history in the library."
1:41:31 PM <Complete_Zero> "There hasn't been a female ruler in nearly four hundred years."
1:41:45 PM <DiePotato> "That's a long time."
