[ofthefullmoon]

Oh, hello! Are you here to join our army here at toran_castle? Wonderful! We could definitely use all of the help that we can get. My name is Estellise, and I hope you don't mind if I ask you a few questions and brief you in on what to expect here in the Castle.

Before we begin, though, here are a few things I have been asked to remind you of.

Frederic Francois Chopin | Eternal Sonata

[poeticpianist]

[Frederic was not one to involve himself in wars, considering what ordeals he had come from prior to his arrival in this castle. However, he bows politely to the young lady and addresses her.]

Thank you for your greeting, Miss Estellise. My name is Frederic Francois Chopin, it's a pleasure to meet you.

[ofthefullmoon]

[ Oh, what a pleasant man! Estelle couldn't help but smile a little more at his manners and the polite greeting he gave. She bows a little in return. ]

And you as well, Mr. Chopin! May I call you Frederic?

[poeticpianist]

[He nods and gracefully takes a seat in front of her before answering.]

Of course you may, Miss Estellise. So what exactly are these questions you wish to ask me? And I'm rather interested in knowing more about this castle.

[ofthefullmoon]

[ She takes her seat as well, clasping her hands together in her lap and sitting up straight. She looks to Frederic with a friendly smile, though it's a much smaller one than the smile she had previously regarded him with. Now was the time to get down to business. ]

I thought perhaps I could answer any specific questions you had, actually. Is there anything in particular you would like to know? I find that this way, it's a little easier to have a starting point in what we need to cover in regards to this place.

[poeticpianist]

[He decides to confess a bit, even if he didn't really want to. Though Estellise seems like a nice enough girl and in a way, she reminds him of Polka which he takes comfort in.]

You may or may not believe this, but I was asleep before my arrival to this world. Upon awakening, I found myself in this castle and I'm beginning to wonder if this is yet another dream world of my own making. Though I doubt anyone would believe such a story, that is why I wish to know if this is in fact another reality or one I have created.

[ofthefullmoon]

[ Estelle had heard a lot of things in her life, and had read a lot of things (a lot of things), and after her journeys both back on Terca Lumireis and thus far here in Toran, she had also now experienced a lot of things. Everyone here in Toran came from some very unusual things, in her experience, and this was among the least unusual she had heard about. She nods a little in response. ]

I believe you. However, I really doubt this place is anybody's dream world ... unless we all are asleep back in our homes and sharing the same dream.

[poeticpianist]

[Frederic sighs, but then he gives Estelle a small smile.]

Thank you for believing me, Miss Estellise. [But then he brings up another question.] But do tell me, why does this castle need an army? Is there a war going on?

[ofthefullmoon]

Of sorts ...

[ Estelle laughs a little, sheepishly. ]

Nobody is really all that sure who our enemy is, to be honest. All we know is that the Castle is recruiting for battle.

[poeticpianist]

I've known war and been involved with one indirectly, so perhaps I may be of some help to the Castle's cause. I think the suffering of innocence is the greatest tragedy regarding war, it's appalling.

[Though instead of talking about war, he brings up another question.]

Forgive my rather odd question and changing the subject so abruptly, but I wish to locate a piano. Does this Castle have one or can I find one elsewhere?

ACCEPTED

[ofthefullmoon]

A piano?

[ That was an odd question, change of subject, but it was actually kind of nice to talk about other things in these meetings at times. Estelle smiled brightly. ]

I don't know for sure, but there will be plenty of time to explore the castle! In a place such as this, I'm sure you'll find one.

In any case, I do think you'll be a great help to the army. You seem like a good person, and I really look forward to getting to know you better, Frederic.
