Back into the fray again, I suppose--
[Neria's voice echoes across the network, wry. She sighs.]
Welcome, new Travelers. I trust you can hear me. Wherever you are in Liminal Space, if you should require aid, you need only speak up or call out to the other Travelers around you. Though we're all strangers, I assure you that we're here to help.
[Which is your standard welcome, by all accounts. But she has a specific reason for requesting people's attentions this time.]
You might notice the portals that are leading out of Liminal Space. I would advise you be cautious until you've listened to what I have to say.
We are in the middle of an excursion into another world, something we do here very frequently. We have been tasked with aiding the realm of Dolorosa, a kingdom fraught with trouble. There is a missing queen and knights abound, with dragons and murderous barons. [She chuckles briefly.] I know it may sound fantastical and strange, but this is a reality you will be facing very shortly. I would caution you to ask your fellow Travelers, the other Veterans, about Dolorosa and how you can prepare, what you can expect, before moving on.
Rest assured, we will do all we can to help you.
I have but one request of all of you gathered here: should you find any herbs or anything of use, please collect them and bring them to me. I am one of the few here capable of healing injuries and my stock is low, a very dangerous thing considering what has transpired recently. [Her tone sounds almost bitter, colored with bemusement.] I would be highly grateful if you could bring me whatever you can. I cannot pay you, but it will certainly come in handy should you be injured along the way.
Oh, and do try to be inconspicuous. I've found that spouting inane babble about portals and other worlds tends to lead to trouble and a possible stay in a cell.
[Veteran Lock;]
We've spent a month in this place. What have we learned, and what's our next goal?

[omg she thought you were an Infiltrator she thought you'd vanished off she was kind of freaked out]
Are you okay? Are you an Investigator now? Did you d-die?!
no subject
[Right, she was...hiding out.]
No, no, I didn't die. I was here. I was...pretending to be an infiltrator, in a sense.
no subject
W-wha - you can do that?? But what for?
no subject
[She sighs.]
I'm sorry. I wasn't trying to run away from my duty. I just wanted...a break, if that makes sense.
no subject
Yeah, it... it does.
But, you could've just said so? Couldn't you?
no subject
[It failed rather spectacularly, of course.]
I should have said something. I was listening...but I wanted that time to myself.
no subject
[Now that she thinks about it, she's homesick out of her ears.]
We were okay! I mean, maybe not... okay, but, the important thing is that you're back!

[Garrett's disappointment was enough to make her feel guilty, though at the time, she had craved for the reprieve. But she had abandoned her post, something she had done before, and it was time to suffer the consequences.]
I'm sorry to have worried you.
