a welcome;

[mallowmods]

Who: Everyone and everyone!
What: Welcoming in the new members to Mallow Hallow
Where: Everywhere!
When: March 2nd.

[ Once everyone’s settled in their particular districts, no doubt thousands of questions running between each individual mind, there’s an announcement. Not over the devices, but rather in speakers all over each and every district. A familiar voice should ring out—you did, after all, hear the voice of your Queen earlier today. ]

Ahem! Can you hear me? Ah, right then.

Hello loveies! You might recall this particular visage which speaks before you—that is, I am your Queen. Call me Queenie, if you must! I’ve met you all on this particular day, and I find it important to bestow some of my boundless knowledge onto you, sweethearts.

Now! Done with formalities, let’s see where we stand… ah, yes! Might I be the first to welcome you all to Mallow Hallow, our wonderful little country. Not too big, not quite too small either! It’s just lovely, isn’t it? Oh, how all my new babies will love it here! Or—perhaps not. [ She clicks her tongue. ] Either way, it doesn't really matter. You're stuck here for the time, so do try to make the most of it, dears.

Of course, there are our sectors within Mallow Hallow. Six… [ There’s silence for a short moment. ] Yes, there are six, aren’t there..? Well, six different communities you might stem off from! Surely you remember the name from our meeting earlier? If not, I’m sure one of the regular inhabitants of each particular district will assist you in naming your new home!

Live where you’d like, eat what you’d like, do what you’d like! Our homes are now your homes, so please, consider us all a big happy family to you! Remember you can reach me or any of the other rulers of any of the districts, over at our voicemails! [ Somehow, that seems sarcastic… ]

Also, don’t cause any trouble, or I’ll personally end you. [ There it is. ]

I suppose that's all. Well then, bye now, dears! And let the word spread—Mallow Hallow is up and rising once again!

[That felt more literal than it probably should have been.]

Not a problem. A generous beatdown and a nice little interrogation after. If that doesn't get us the answers we need, then nothing will.

[feetarestrange]

[Hey, she can make your kicks hurt more. True story!]

If they're smart, they'll talk. If they're stupid, well... That'll be their own problem to deal with.

[armagone]

[Hey, he doesn't need bonus magic damage on hit. He's too cool for that.]

Heh. I like the way you think. [What's the polite thing to do at this point?] Name's Ragna.

[feetarestrange]

[but what about the 1-second slow? surely you could find some use in that, right?]

Nice to meet you. Where did you come from?

[armagone]

[... Yeah, probably.]

Uh, recently? [Because he's been all over the place. And saying any one place isn't doing it justice.] A city called Kagutsuchi. You probably haven't heard of it.

[feetarestrange]

Can't say I have.

[gosh why do humans give their cities such weird names? she's never gonna be able to pronounce that.]

The surface world all kind of blurs together for me at some point.

[armagone]

Yeah? [Hey, it can't be that hard to pronounce when he said it so casually. Maybe.]

Next you're gonna say that all us two-legged people look the same, right?

[feetarestrange]

Not so much, really. You humans are different enough to keep that from happening, and there's a bunch of other surface-dwellers that I didn't even know existed.

[armagone]

Other surface dwellers...

[Coming from... well, a mermaid. That sounded like pretty much anything else around. Fairies excluded. They can both be annoyed and confused about that together.]

Like a dog or a bear, right? [He juts a thumb into the air.] Or whatever the hell is flying around, trying to make enemies with me every time I turn my back?

[feetarestrange]

[Ragna, you don't know how right you are.

... Considering she knows of both a dog and a bear.]

Sounds like you're a real popular guy.

[A real... catch, even.

[armagone]

Back home? Definitely. [Being wanted does that to a guy.] I don't think there's a ton of reason for it around here besides the fact that these flying things are annoying as hell.
