Jema'grethy: Memory Cave

Passengers see a vision, an instance of someone's life, before just as suddenly - they find themselves inside a cave. It is light, a strange moss glowing on the walls and ceiling illuminates the cave nicely, and it is large enough for them to pace around in without trouble.

They're not alone. In the cave with them is another voidtrecker; maybe someone they know well, or maybe someone they've only seen in the aisles of the train. But they are together in this cave, and they will come to find out that it was one of their memories that the other witnessed. And them, one of yours.

The cave has no exit, at least not yet. They know that it will, eventually. When the time is right.

But for that time to come, they first must talk...

(OOC: Memories can be written either in this post or over here)

Ah. Now that just earns a bit of a laugh. "...Asking would be the best idea, yes. She's the only one who would know for sure what the answer is after all," Kiyoiri points out in her amusement.

She lets Sebek sit on that thought though for a bit. The idea of what strength is, and so on.

"...It can be hard to believe without seeing it for yourself," she acknowledges after a moment.

That's Sebek, expending a lot of energy and not getting much to show for it. He tries his best with all of his energy, much like a puppy.

"She might be the only one in Briar Valley to truly recognize my father if that is the case. Most would use his lack of apparent strength against him rather than provide aid." Humans are weaker than fae, but that means that fae should use their power to protect the more fragile humans and help them out.

Hm, but is that the same as how Kiyoiri and her friends were treated? Sebek frowns. Treating them as if they are fae would be folly as well because... well... his father can't use magic, which is often required and assumed in Briar Valley. "This is more complicated than I realized."

(Even though he struggles with his own identity every day being either human nor fae.)

That, admittedly, draws a small giggle. "...Humans are complicated. ...I have a lot to learn about being one, even if I am one. There is no time limit to learn, however. ...It's good to remember that," she points out with a smile.

It's so rude of it

Sebek grumbles but not at Kiyoiri. It's more of what she says. The humans and fae around him seem to have clear understanding of how things are, but he doesn't fit in either category.

But, she does seem to be right in that there is no time limit to learn or understand.

"Is that... what is that in the distance?" Is it some kind of light in the cave?

Perception is everything in the end. Those certain of their perspective will appear as such, even if they aren't necessarily correct.

Kiyoiri blinks toward the light though, and hums consideringly as she stands. "I don't know," she admits quietly, folding her hands over her skirt. "But perhaps...it's our exit?"

"It is worth venturing towards and investigating." It's possible that the light is a type of wisp or light fae, but it is just as likely that it is something else. Well, Sebek will use his knowledge of the fae world to navigate whatever conflict that may come from it.

(Except it's the exit.)
