Characters: All the Heroes of Light and their Moogles.
Where: Order's Sanctuary, The Interdimensional Rift and their Homeworlds.
When: August 03rd - August 30th

Summary: Following the battle against Palitutu, all the Heroes of Light were transported into the Interdimensional Rift. They were told by Palitutu they would have to find her to prove they can break the cycle-- But before they could reach their destination, a malevolent entity from the Rift stripped them from their immortality...

And now, they woke up in a decaying and dying world, most specifically in a place called Order's Sanctuary. From there they are ready to jump... Into their homeworlds! Feel free to use this post for the Mingle at Order's Sanctuary and should your homeworld be the stage for the Heroes of Lights' next adventures, feel free to make a thread for it and as many sub-thread as necessary! Please refer to the OOC Post for questions and plotting.

Warning: Whatever you come up with.

( yuna's eyes went wide at the sight of the mass of casualties, rushing to the side of the closest body she came across... quickly becoming aware of the reality of the situation. most of these people... they were already dead.

with a gentle hand she shut their eyes, getting up again to search through the bodies in case there were any she could help. it wasn't until several curagas and esunas later that she hobbled again to standing, steadying herself with a hand along the shelves, stumbling when she came across the hidden panel.

with a quick glance behind her again to make sure the coast was clear, she stole away inside, searching the beakers and tables as she went further inside. )

[confidentia]

[ Given Yuna's experience as a healer, she might be able to identify the blue substance currently in development as a potion of some kind - nothing that could come across as potentially harmful, in any case. The same probably can't be said about the vividly-coloured liquids stored on the shelves, or the rest of the equipment, for that matter.

It's a little bit of everything. Rows of books and bottles aside, there's a reclining examination chair standing not so far from the entrance, along with a small assortment of medical tools and what seems to be anaesthetics. Of course, it's currently unoccupied, but it shows undeniable signs of wear.

Set against one corner of the room is a device resembling a test tube, big enough to house a human body or two, but otherwise empty at the time. Powered up by a couple of smaller batteries, it emits a warm, red light that spreads across the room and makes it slightly easier to navigate.

There are little notes and pages scattered all over the place, but their contents vary from completely irrelevant - like the ingredients for an elixir granting miraculous hair growth - to somewhat disturbing. Among the prevailing themes are creating a perfect human body and... extracting the memories from the flesh of the deceased. Each attempt is completed by a neatly written list of collected samples and personal thoughts accompanying the procedure.

Yuna will have some more time to look around before hearing a distant sound of footsteps. ]

[grandsummon]

( what was a place like this doing here, open and empty in what seemed like a time of crisis? the sight of the chair was slightly off-putting, as well as the sweep she made of the various instruments.

as she moved along, yuna pressed a hand against the large tube, unhappy with the thoughts that began to intrude; what could this have been built for? how recently was this used? when she turned again, the mismatched colours of her eyes danced across the notes, trying to make some sense of them, squinting...

until the sound of the footsteps made her recoil. now she scanned the area for a different reason, a place to hide! darting behind one of the heftier pieces of equipment, she ducked, pulling her knees closer in. )

[ Apart from the scientific babble that would be incomprehensible for anyone but its author, there's a couple things to be found across the journal's worn-out pages. Class Zero even gets its own section, beginning with Ace, no less:

▻ Provides some good quality samples, though kid's got more temper issues than he lets on.
▻ It's as though the Crystal didn't manage to erase all the memories. Interesting.
▻ Chocobos, again. Will make another attempt tomorrow.

... Unless Yuna is more interested in learning about shoe sizes and such, for the notes are accompanied by all kinds of relatively harmless data not always falling under the definition of "medical research". What would anyone even need all that for?

Soon afterwards, two figures enter the laboratory, and while Yuna's quick reflexes allow the girl to go unnoticed, would it be for long? The compact layout of the room doesn't provide a safe escape route, either. One of the people is a male student, and he's the first to speak up, walking up closer to the potion table. ]

- At this point, we're left on our own, so let's act fast. I've been receiving calls from the townsfolk requesting help, and we'd use some more potions to redistribute-

- Right, right. This is all I got for now, but I'll get a new batch started in a moment. Just take it and get out of here.

[ There is no malice in the other man's tone, if anything, he sounds a little tired. Wearing a white lab coat and a pair of glasses, he still appears somewhat young for a researcher - being somewhere in his mid-twenties, perhaps. After seeing the teenager dutifully empty the table from its contents and take his leave, he mutters to himself, defeated. ]

Well... this isn't what I've signed up for. I wonder how long this place even holds up.

[ Having said that, he gets straight to work, hurrying across the room to fetch the necessary ingredients.... ]

[grandsummon]

( yuna didn't know how long she had been holding her breath until the need for air finally won out, and she exhaled as quietly as she could, just as the one man left. it felt strange to be here, she didn't feel right. what were all those notes about ace? erasing memories... it felt all kinds of wrong to read over any of it.

she peered over the edge of her hiding place, wondering if she could make a break for the exit unnoticed, and she eased herself up slowly, both to get a better look at what he was up to, and to try and see if escape was even possible...

until her hand met with a stray vial and knocked it to the ground. whoops. )
