Speedy? How are you doing with your injuries?

I meant to check in with you earlier but let us just say I ran into someone who doesn't care for you attempting to depart before he is quite stated his fill on anything he is currently speaking of.


Also do you know anything about people being marked here? I was cleaning up once I was back and I noticed a spade covering a portion of my shoulder...the first obvious thing which springs to mind is an identification and tracking method. Since this place carries the same name as the shape of the tattoo. What do you think?

Well the wandering trip around this area was in a sense both interesting and informative, it just wasn't the sort of informative I was hoping to find or looking for. This place seems to delight almost in defying one's expectations I think. After all, I am fairly certain that the local flora is quite on the unnatural side with its size, not to mention some of it seems to exhibit signs of intelligence of a humanesque nature.

Then there's the creature I met which apparently is known as a Gryphon. Whom apparently adores making speeches about topics which have nothing to do with any questions you might ask him...unless you desire to know about turtles. Still, it was all in all not a total waste of time, much better than sitting around and doing nothing in this house.

Upon speaking with some of the others also brought here it would seem I have not found out much more than I knew before, though I do now have a name for the place and a likely suspect for whom is responsible for arranging for my presence in this place.

Wonderland. The Queen. It does sound like something out of a tale told around a fire or to a child, though I am quite certain that what ever 'story' this place and situation may be based upon, it will most likely not end as nearly as pleasant as I am certain it does within the actual story, whatever that tale may be.

I need to go the next step from observing the 'guards' and this place from the window to actually being out within it. A trip for the basic necessities should be excuse enough to take me out among them I believe, something so innocent should not I hope arouse them from their normal attitude of casual patrolling. I would rather observe them in a passive state before provoking them with any deeper studies.

I have to wonder though, just whom this "Queen" is and her motives for pulling this together, as well as just what sort of power she wields so as to be able to pull something like this off with such effortless seeming ease.

Is she perhaps something akin to the Wave Existence, or perchance she has had contact with it and this perhaps is how she is able to take people from their proper places and bring them here? I do not know if it could make such possible, but I shall not discount it either for now.

I am going to trust that I have managed to get this voice option up properly and that perhaps anyone who might perhaps stumble across this will hear it.

I have come to notice that this laptop I have been gifted is apparently connected to some kind of network and since I can see now that there are others here besides those strange 'card-like' beings, I decided to send out a message asking if anyone here knows anything about this place?

[pauses in consideration for a few moments before speaking again]

If anyone cares to share anything with me, I would be more than willing to meet you somewhere, or if that is not possible, I am quite willing to also converse over this network via these computers using voice or type.

This place is most curious, to judge by first appearance, it looks similar in certain aspects to any other city within Ignas, the architecture is obvious different but it has the same low tech 'feel' one might say to it. Rustic one might say even. However the fact that this place is capable of producing this working laptop belies that impression.

And then there is the small matter of those things patrolling outside; they resemble human-sized playing cards with a simple addition of arms, legs and the necessary components to grant them a face within their flat card-shaped forms. I have yet to decide what to categorize them as, living creatures or very sophisticated machinery. If the latter, then the technology used to create them must be extremely small and thin to fit within such flat forms which make up the majority of their bodies.

However those answers will have to wait until other larger more pressing concerns have been dealt with. Such as finding out perhaps just where I am now, if it is possible to return to where I was, and possibly if I am able to, why and how I came to be here.

I will write more of my findings here later as I have the feeling that keeping a record of such will only prove to be beneficial in the long run of things.
