Official Mihli intro post!

[springserpent]

Characters: Mihli Aliapoh and you! (totally open)
Setting: Floor three, with oatmeal!
Format: Action!
Summary: Mihli's sitting around the library (on top of the bookshelves no less) trying to sort out what's going on.
When: Doesn't really matter!
Warnings: Cats. Also eating oatmeal in the library. She'll be cautious and a little stand-offish since she's not too sure who to trust here yet.



[Upon arriving, Mihli had wasted little to no time in getting reacquainted with her instincts, investigating the first three floors of the tower before deciding on doing much else. She hadn't really run into any others just yet, or at least anyone she'd opted to talk to -- really more than anything she needed to organize her thoughts, and apparently eat the oatmeal which she grasped rather awkwardly in one hand, holding the bowl close to her twitching nose.

Surely whomever trapped her in this odd realm wouldn't have brought her all this way just to poison her food?

...

Well, she couldn't be too cautious, even if that would just make for one hell of a boring, anticlimactic death. However, on the off chance this stuff did kill her she'd be certain to devote her entire after-life to haunting whatever sicko thought this was a great idea.

Even worse, the book she held in her other hand didn't answer any of her questions, nor did any in the massive stack sleeping next to her. History, fiction, science, all of them seemed legitimate, but not a single clue as to her biggest concerns. Furthermore, none of them seemed to originate from Vana'diel either. Curious.

Until now she'd been skulking up and down the aisles, carefully selecting books and tomes she thought might be useful in identifying just what the heck was going on. Sure, she had that note she woke up with, but being told that her world was gone in a flash - hell if she was going to believe that easily.

For a moment, the thought of asking for help flutters through her mind

But with a huff she quells it and sets the book down in her lap to take a spoon to the oatmeal, idly stirring the stuff as if doing so would eat the bland muck for her.]

[She's giving you a look Naoto, but it's hard to determine just what it means. Part of her would like to protest, but if this place were as bad as Naoto makes it out to be, would she honestly be alright with them showing up just to confirm her hope still exists? Had she grown that used to having friends, no, family she could trust unconditionally?]

[Mihli wordlessly descends from her spot on the shelf, landing next to Naoto before heading towards the exit of the library]

"The Serrrpent Generals are stronger than you know."

[Mihli brings herself some small sense of comfort in hearing those words uttered aloud -- in fact, it may have been the sole purpose of her saying anything at all upon leaving.]

[detecting]

For your sake, I hope you're right.

[And with that she turns sharply on her heel, walking to the nearest table to read.]

Don't forget to finish your oatmeal.
