===============================================

The last thing he remembers was floating in the Rift, drifting from one world to the next, wondering where he would land and if it would take him home.

The next thing is him sitting bolt upright in his bed in the dorms.

"What? Where is this? What world is this now?" His voice bellows as he leaps out of the bed, his body landing with a heavy thud. A quick check of his surroundings and himself brings his attention to the blue collar around his neck. Even more distressing, all of his swords seem to be missing.

"WHAT IS THIS? WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS? NOBODY TAKES GILGAMESH'S WEAPONS AND GETS AWAY WITH IT!"


================================================

[Gilgamesh roams the halls of the towers seemingly at random. He hems and haws as he makes his way around, looking at different things, bending this way and that, stroking his chin as he takes in his surroundings.

Either he is completely confident in his survival skills, or he has no clue where he is and what's going on around him.]

That's okay!

As I said, they are nigh-invincible as they are. They can kill us with the touch of a button, and at least one has powers that can make our bodies fall apart with a thought. We may find a weakness someday, but until then, all we can do is search for it.

*He's sure the tower residents themselves will be Ruana's downfall. But it can't happen now, not as things are...*

[Gilgamesh listens intently. He doesn't quite get it all, being new here, but he understands that they are being held at the whim of some very powerful people.]

Well what's wrong? What's stopping everyone? Or do you mean that button and powers you just mentioned?

[warriorscribe]

...Yes, that. Fighting them now is futile. And worse, when we die, it is one of our hosts who restores us. Whenever we die, we are at his mercy - it isn't worth the risk yet, of facing his wrath when we are at our most powerless.
