[Jade is at his desk, which is a welcome change. He hasn't been able to sit at his desk in his office in months, or what feels like months, thanks to an extended stay in the magical musical city of Elegy. Yes, a very welcome change from dealing with irritating employees and the constant music. So welcome, in fact, that he's actually dreaming about it.]

[Looking back, it's probably one of the better dreams he's ever had.]

[He is reading through the stack of reports and memos that have accumulated since he left for Kimlasca (for the Harmony seems to have put his life on hold right as he went on a week-long vacation), alone in his office at the Malkuth Imperial Forces' headquarters in Grand Chokmah. It's a tidy place, save for the corner nearest the door that His Majesty's pet rappigs like. He really would see about getting it cleaned up, but it would be a futile effort. He seems almost oblivious to the presence of another person in the room... seems being the key word.]

[And what's this? You seem to have yet another report for him. Won't you give it to him?]

[Drat. She will stop and straighten up with an ear-to-ear grin.]

You know it's be so terribly boring around the home I decided to pay you a visit.

I'm surprised that security even let in someone as suspicious as you. I won't have to sweep up the guards, will I?

[Because it'd totally ruin his day to have to clean up his own vaporised soldiers.]

[daha-az-tanrica.livejournal.com]

Let's re-correct that. To people who don't know me like you, I'm simply that charming and cute girl. And no your guards are perfectly fine.

[maddening-gale.livejournal.com]

That charming and cute girl who has neither an appointment with me nor the security clearance to poke around this building.

[But at least she didn't kill his men, so that's a plus.]

Still, you haven't answered my question. Why are you on Auldrant?

[daha-az-tanrica.livejournal.com]

[Sigh. Oh answers that don't exist are always a bother.]

Don't suppose you'd accept some reason other then "Why not"?

[maddening-gale.livejournal.com]

No, I would not.

Then I suppose I should go ahead and tell you the truth, huh?

[daha-az-tanrica.livejournal.com]

I have no idea.

[maddening-gale.livejournal.com]

[Well, this is just peachy, isn't it? It's like the universe is playing a nasty prank on him and doing a fine job of it.]

Could it be the Harmony?

[daha-az-tanrica.livejournal.com]

I somewhat doubt that. Unless it now spreads from simply the city to every single spot in all of the worlds. Might be the cause then.

[maddening-gale.livejournal.com]

That would be unlikely, yes, but the Harmony has caused us to hallucinate before. It would not be impossible for this to be an illusion.

[daha-az-tanrica.livejournal.com]

It seems pretty simple for an illusion. While I can't say for certain if it is or not, this is your world. I'd hope you could tell the difference between a copy and the real one.
