1st Dive

[Cambot focuses in on a pointy-eared young man who clearly seems lost. Judging by the way he's looking around, he probably came from a situation where being off guard could get him hurt or worse. He can be heard grumbling under his breath a little bit, but he doesn't say anything clearly enough to be understood.

He hasn't noticed Cambot yet. Although the fact that Cambot is staying out of his line of sight doesn't help matters, but this gives anyone watching a good opportunity to make some observations, such as how he looks like he might be a warrior, if that ring mail is any indication.

Nope, he's not going to notice Cambot until it needs to let him know someone's talking to him through the network.]

[Midna sags a bit. It figures. Of course it's someone else. How the hell many Links are there, anyway?]

I'm Midna. I know someone who looks a lot like you.

[Well, she may as well play exposition fairy.]

You're on something called the Satellite of Love. No one knows how we've ended up here, really, but two mad scientists are keeping us trapped here. They send us bad novels and make us read them to try to drive us crazy, but mostly it's just annoying. So far no one has figured out how to get home.

[shortpants_knight]

[Link doesn't miss her disappointment, but he's not quite sure what to say. He does feel kind of bad about it, though.

He's never heard the term 'satellite' before, but of greater concern is that it sounds like this satellite is being used as some variation of a prison.]

They want to drive people crazy? That's... a little weird.

[solmidna]

They're not exactly sane themselves, from what I can tell.

[Midna crosses her arms.]

Unfortunately, they've got us trapped.

[shortpants_knight]

I wouldn't exactly expect sanity from a couple of guys trying to drive people insane with bad fiction.

[And he thinks for a moment.]

There's no way out of here at all?

[solmidna]

[Midna shakes her head.]

You can ask around, but no one's found a way. We're up in space, so if you go outside unprotected, you die.

[shortpants_knight]

[Well that's... disconcerting. Link sighs.]

Is there anything else I should know about?

[solmidna]

Most of the people here are nice and willing to help each other out. And you might run into people that you know, or who look like you, because whatever brings people here seems to take people from the future and the past.

[Okay, that was confusing, but there's no good way to explain.]

[shortpants_knight]

[He's not a stranger to freaky time stuff, courtesy of the Timeshift Stones in Lanayru. The idea that this strange place can pull people from different points in time is odd, though.

Although thinking of that reminds him that he's supposed to be in Lanayru right now and he sighs again.]

This would happen when I'm in the middle of something important...

[solmidna]

It seems like it happened that way to a bunch of us. I'm sorry.

[Midna sighs. Maybe they'll be able to help each other out, but really this is just reminding her of her Link.]

[shortpants_knight]

Why are you apologizing? It isn't your fault.

[He's starting to want to do what he can to help her somehow. Even if it's just figuring out a way off this satellite...]

[solmidna]

I can still be sorry for the situation.

[Midna is kind of embarrassed. she shouldn't get silly just because he's not her Link.]
