This would probably the last place I expected to end up, if I even knew it was on the list.

Weird way to meet the neighbors, too, but how do you do, I guess?

If people are as helpful as I'm getting the impression they are, I'm sure you're right.

Well, it's good to meet you, Bruce Wayne. You can call me Biggs.

The third what now?

[menarebrave]

We're all in the same situation. Far from home without a way back that we know of.
Any first name to go with that, Mr. Biggs?
World, reality. We come from different places and we change them. It was a beach when I arrived.

[alphabeticalplans]

I'll get back to you on whether or not that's comforting.

Victor, but most people just call me Biggs.

And it was a winter wonderland before you guys defeated the Unseen, right? That's normal.

[menarebrave]

It probably isn't. It shouldn't be.

Biggs then.

It was. I'm guessing they had some ability to affect the weather if it melts the moment that they're stopped.

Are the monsters a common thread or did they come with the snow? I get the Unseen were ice-based. That I can jive, but have there been similar occurances in the other realities you've seen?

Roger. They were ice monsters, pretty powerful ones too, by the sound of it. That sort of magic doesn't come from garden variety fiends, at least not that I've ever heard of. I know a guy who'd probably know better, but it looks like I left him in another reality.

[menarebrave]

It seems like they came with the snow in this reality. That, or they simply were the most active during the winter. The previous reality was a metropolitan city, and before that a beach city. Driftcrest has certainly been the most dangerous so far.

Magic. You have that?

[alphabeticalplans]

Came with it or caused it?

My world does, yeah, but the last people who could use it without using Materia, that's crystallized magic basically, died out a long time ago.

[menarebrave]

That would require us to have been here prior to the Unseen. From what I gather? The information is dodgy at best. They tried to suppress what they could about it to control panic.

I've heard a few people mention magic before. Not in the context of "materia."

[alphabeticalplans]

"Suppressed" or not, someone has to know SOMETHING.

...is this a secure line?
