[The mental voice drifting in over the network sounds more than a little stressed, as far as it's possible to tell from a psychic message.]

Yo. Can you hear me? If you can, this is Kanji here... and I think we've got a problem.

I don't just mean the whole 'bein' shoved around by guards' kind of problem. But I ain't seen a whole lot of familiar faces yet... and I think I know why. Been doin' some pokin' around - Champion thing, long story - and there's a whole load of people who ain't even in this world with us.

I don't mean Infiltrating. I mean they ain't here at all.

Dunno what you think, but if they're somewhere else... is this like that last time? When a bunch of folks never made it to Questing Country?

[There's a worried pause here. If this means what it might mean...]

Right. On what's going on... Sounds like this city's called Misericordia - did I get that right? Heard something about folks looking for a dragon... dunno how you'd hide a dragon, I figured they were kinda ...big and fiery and all that crap.

...But. I also heard someone say somethin' about Dolorosa? As in, gryphons and Color Magic Dolorosa?

I'm ... there?

...A-anyway. If anyone's out there, or anyone knows what's goin' on better than I do... 'cause seriously, I ain't got a clue... let us know, okay?

No, this is important. As soon as I have time and materials and quiet, you will have a map of the area, Dolorosa, and a more detailed map of the city. In the meantime, if you have need of a place of origin, Flamegard is the highland plateau fortress of the Baroness where this party is likely to have set out from. You may wish some place less dragon-infested, however. I might suggest Treadle - a small village in the northern highlands. Isolated, cold, whose inhabitants tend to wander the forests alone rather than seeking out the company of others. Heartgard is the largest and most like unto a more modern city of commerce, if you prefer.

Be careful... please.

Yeah, I think I can work with one of those. Beats makin' things up. Though ... hell. Been a long time since I've had to.

You too.
