[Action]

[Somewhat near the lab is a very confused looking girl! She was told to go to the lab, but with that dragon... snake... thing there, it's kind of difficult.]

What should I do...? Nobody said anything about this.

[Give her a hand? Misdirect her? It's a newbie who doesn't actually know what to do for once! Anything is possible!]

[She takes a few steps back at his words.]

H-huh?

S-sorry! Just. Don't disturb that thing. We're working on moving it.

Oh... Okay!

[Makes sense.]

Do you need any help?

N-no, that's okay. We've got other people trying to move it, too.

Alright. Do you know how long it should take?

Not yet. I'm sure someone will say something when they know, though.

Okay... I'll just keep listening for news, then!

[...Although now she needs to figure out what to do in the meantime.]

So...you just arrived, right?

Yes, that's right. They told me to come here so they could explain things better, but if I can't get in...

Well, I can't guarantee I can answer all your questions, but I can try explaining things. I've been here for more than a few months now, so I think I can help with your questions.

Could you?

[She brightens. How lucky of her, meeting such kind people right away!]

Someone told me we get our memories back... is that true?

Yeah, it is. They come back on their own, but that's also a pretty slow process. We can speed it up by earning anemoi and handing them over to the labs for processing.

[She wasn't super tense before, but she's definitely relaxing a bit at that.]

...Thank goodness. But, um... what are anemoi?

They're gemstones. Not big ones, but big enough to keep track of.

Gemstones... That shouldn't be too hard to remember! How do you earn them?

There's two ways. First, you travel out into the wilderness to find them. The wilderness is dangerous, though, so it's not a good idea to do it right away.

But people who can't fight can also earn them. The city's got all sorts of jobs available, and they pay you in anemoi.

So I'll have to get a job...

[She nods to herself. That sounds doable.]

I think I can do that. But what should I do about normal money?

Don't worry. As long as you're earning anemoi, the government will pay you a monthly stipend. They also provide free housing for you if you want to use it.

Oh! That's very nice of them!

[So that's housing and money accounted for... Good. She can definitely handle this now.]

Do you think you could tell me where the housing is? It would probably be better if I waited there until the lab is open again.

Oh, yeah. Sure. Actually, if you get your ph--

...

Oh. Right, you haven't gotten a smartphone yet. Okay, I'll tell you what. Follow me, and I'll lead you to the Ermis Suites.

Smartphone...?

Ah, that would be wonderful! Thank you!

Don't worry, you'll get it from the lab once you can get inside.

All right! Just follow me.

[He begins leading the way.]

Okay!

[Followin' the leeeeader.]

[Eventually, the two will reach the Ermis Suites.]

This is it. Check the registry inside to see which unit is yours.

Got it. Thank you very much...

[...She never did do names, huh.]

I'm sorry, now that I think of it, I never introduced myself! My name is Marona... I think. It's nice to have met you!
