[There's the sound of fingers tapping on her comm. She's...unnerved.]

Would someone please inform me as to why this hall is filled with keese? [It's not, really, but she thinks that's what the shadows are. And she also doesn't know what hall she's even in. Feel free to find her.]

[She grinds her teeth.]

I don't know.

... I'm sorry?

[scionofwisdom.livejournal.com]

I am uncertain as to where I am.

I apologize for my rudeness.

[gunsandhonor.livejournal.com]

That's all right, ma'am. I've heard worse.

Any landmarks or anything you can use?

[scionofwisdom.livejournal.com]

Still, it is improper conduct for one such as me.

[She pauses.]

There is a fire at the end of this hall. That does not seem safe.

[gunsandhonor.livejournal.com]

From what I've been told, I think a little rudeness is to be expected.

[--buh? Wha? Seriously? Something's still on fire? Is she serious?]

I'd... stay away from the fire, ma'am. Far away.

[scionofwisdom.livejournal.com]

I...suppose.

[Her voice is a bit dry.]

Yes, I realize that. However, I believe this is the deck that has a perpetual fire on it. Though...I cannot be sure.

[gunsandhonor.livejournal.com]

... Perpetual... fire? How does that even...?

[scionofwisdom.livejournal.com]

To be perfectly honest with you, sir...I don't know. I have seen it before on my explorations of the ship, but for some reaso--

[She cuts off and there's a bit of an explosion and some crackling. Damn 'keese'.]

But for some reason this one never goes out.

[gunsandhonor.livejournal.com]

... Do you need any help, ma'am? That... really doesn't... sound good.

[scionofwisdom.livejournal.com]

My apologies, that was...not the fire. That was me. I see...these keese in the shadows, and they sometimes attack. I know they are not real, but I see them regardless.

[gunsandhonor.livejournal.com]

You... tried finding your room? Maybe... get some rest?

[scionofwisdom.livejournal.com]

I have tried, yes. I seem to be...quite lost, for some reason.
