Hi. I'm Elliot Craig. It's nice to meet you all, even if the circumstances aren't, well, great?

Anyway, I was wondering a couple things and this seemed like the place to ask.

1. Does anyone know where I can get my hands on a violin? If there's a store or a place I could barter for one, that'd be really great. I tried conjuring one, but all I got were recorders. Guess I need more practice.

2. On a related note, is there anywhere I can donate a bunch of recorders?

3. Is there anyone that recognizes the name "Erebonia"? Or "Zemuria"? If you don't, that's okay. I'm just wondering if there's anyone else from my world.

4. And finally, does anyone know how you go about finding someone to make a Bond with? For some reason the townspeople I ask keep acting like it's this really personal thing, but I don't really know anyone here and I definitely don't wanna explode. So what do I do?

Thanks.

...Okay.

I can work with that. I'll try to find a place to donate them. And if I can't...

You can use them for the bonfire.

just a suggestion!! better than them going to waste and takin up space right?

private

[fiddlestick]

Yeah, I guess it's better than nothing...

Still, I'd rather find them a good home. Instruments are meant to be played, not burned.

private

[clickclickbang]

true.

also I swear I've *heard* of Erebonia but I'm not *from* there.

private

[fiddlestick]

You have??

From where?

private

[clickclickbang]

uh

a dream

private

[fiddlestick]

[...]

Was it from a guy with red hair?

private

[clickclickbang]

yeah!

wait how did you know

private

[fiddlestick]

Because that was me.

So which one were you?

private

[clickclickbang]

seriously? uh, blond, probably talked about my bird, mentioned Snow White

private

[fiddlestick]

Haha, yep.

Oh! Prompto! Yeah I remember you! Nice to hear from you in the waking world.

private

[clickclickbang]

same!! weird how we had the same dream and you weren't even here though

private

[fiddlestick]

Yeah, it was pretty weird alright. I woke up back home and I thought things were going back to normal....for a few days, until I landed here.

private

[clickclickbang]

huh

wonder why

private

[fiddlestick]

No idea.

The dream might've been a premonition. That's what one guy seemed to think.

private

[clickclickbang]

newbies get a warning, oldbies get to meet the newbies?

private

[fiddlestick]

Hmmm...yeah! That's actually a really great way to put it.

private

[clickclickbang]

guess that's

idk

nice?? of whatever's bringing us here?

private

[fiddlestick]

I guess so?

What's 'idk'?

private

[clickclickbang]

short for "I don't know"

private

[fiddlestick]

Oh, okay!

I took computer classes in school, but writing messages on devices like this is pretty new for me. So I don't know the shorthand.

private

[clickclickbang]

oh man that's gonna be trip, I know I saw someone using chatspeak the other day

let me know if you need a translation it gets weird

private

[fiddlestick]

Idk what 'chatspeak' is.
Did I use that right?

And thanks Prompto. I'd really appreciate it.

private

[clickclickbang]

yep!! chatspeak is just shorthand people use because chat programs and text messages have character limits

so ppl txt lik this n stuf bcuz it fits

also sometimes it's just faster

private

[fiddlestick]

Ohhhh okay
That sentence almost made sense too!
I'm learning!
