After the new Liminal Space opens - Open to Travelers old and new!

[shiroganeheir]

To everyone who is new, I wish to extend a welcome. You are in what is called Liminal Space, a world between worlds, and you are now a Traveler. What that means differs by who you ask, however feel free to find any of us who have been here for a while and ask. I am by no means the longest-tenured traveler, but I would certainly answer any questions you have. I am easily found, as I am small and wear a blue hat.

I truly apologize for this particular intrusion into your minds with things you will not understand, however this is important and, I mostly speak to those of us who are not new.

I obtained some information about the Trumps who have died before we left the last Liminal Space. First, how they died, and the fact that they are dead is extremely relevant. Second, there were three causes of death between the four Trumps. The first was killed by an external force. My suspicion is that this is the King in Yellow or some power like him. The second and fourth causes were internal issues among the Trumps, and the third was another internal issue.

As this seems to be something that keeps coming up, and something that is important to our mission here, whatever that might be, I want to give this information to everyone. If anyone has any other questions, please feel free to contact me.

[He has approximately ten thousand questions, but first things first.]

What do you think it means? [Being a Traveler, he means.]

[shiroganeheir]

We are sent to different worlds to solve issues in each of them. I find this no different than my usual career of being a detective. I attempt to find the truth in each situation, and help others act accordingly.

In a way, we are agents of change of a sort, you could say.

[fulminates]

If you don't have control over your self or your actions, how do you attempt to find the truth?

[shiroganeheir]

We might not have control over where we are sent, however, most times we have control of our actions while there. Sometimes, yes, some of us are not ourselves for a Jaunt, however, we must trust that others who are in control of their actions understand, and try to find what to do.

Outside of Jaunts, we can come together, put together what happened, and work out a way to go forward, such as my comments about the Trumps.

[fulminates]

[Trust. Right.]

You said you're a detective. What's your name?

[shiroganeheir]

Apologies. I am Naoto Shirogane of Inaba, Japan.

[fulminates]

Nothing to apologize for. You're answering my questions, I didn't really leave time for pleasantries. Mason Shriver.

Do you have any details beyond "internal and external forces," or is that all they've given you?

[shiroganeheir]

That is the entirety of the information I have been given. I believe that 'internal conflict' means conflict among the Trumps themselves, and 'external conflict' is some other opposing power.

Beyond that, I do not know.

[fulminates]

Is it possible that there's a history of conflict between the Trumps and this is the latest effect, or could this be the first time?

[shiroganeheir]

We do not have enough information to know that, unfortunately. My guess is that the first Trump who died was an anomaly, however, I do not have enough information to truly support that theory.

[fulminates]

What makes you jump to that conclusion, then?
