Asougi.....? This isn't you trying to be funny?

[painalty]

My name is Charles, not Asougi. And I have no reason to play tricks on people like this.

[ryuwrighthistory]

Charles? Wait, why are you talking through Asougi's amulet? Is he ok?!

[painalty]

This is my amulet, sir, and I do not know Asougi at all. Perhaps you contacted the wrong person?

[ryuwrighthistory]

It...It is? [There's a long pause before he speaks again.] I uh, I guess I did, somehow?

I'm not sure how, I was just talking to my best friend without switching the connection and...I'm sorry.

[painalty]

[Now that that's settled...]

That's quite all right, but... [He pauses.] How did that happen?

[ryuwrighthistory]

I...I don't know. This is the first time I've ever spoken with you, I think. So, I'm not sure how the amulet reached you. [It can't be seen, but he's flipping his amulet in his hand, puzzled.]

Do you like sewing? Or stuffed animals? [Wait, what?]

[painalty]

I can sew, but I don't do it as a hobby.

[And he has a live animal in his house, not a stuffed one.]

[ryuwrighthistory]

Oh. I thought if we had a shared interest, that might have been the reason why we made contact all of the sudden. [...] But, I guess that doesn't really makes much sense. I really don't know what happened, sorry.

[painalty]

Neither do I. It's rather fascinating, though; this is the first time anything like this happened to me.

[A new phenomenon...interesting. Possibly a source of more information about this world.]

[ryuwrighthistory]

Hm, there's the occasional intrusion from the Arethei, but I don't think this is the same situation. [He fumbles with the amulet on his end.]

So maybe something is up with the amulets, whatever's powering them.

[painalty]

But the question is, what exactly has happened to the amulets?

[The question is not directed to Naruhodou exactly, judging from the tone. It sounds more like a bit of musing to himself.]

It may be a sign of something else to come.

[Hopefully not on the same scale as Thras' death.]
