I think I've finally got this thing working. [Neville appears sideways on the screen. He's not holding it right, but give the kid some credit for figuring out this wacky muggle device.]

I've already been told the general gist of what's going on around here. And I've had the chance to experience it a bit for myself. And, well, I want to help if I can. It looks like there's still a lot of questions to be answered about what's happening and if I can do anything- not to mean that you lot haven't been working hard and all. I'm sure you have. It just, you know, an extra set of hands and all that.

[He's beginning to feel a little stupid for making the post, but he needs to feel useful. Being trapped in a new culture with nothing to work towards is testing his nerves.]

I'm Neville, by the way. Neville Longbottom. Anything I could do to help, if you'd let me, I'd be grateful for.

And do you know which pantheon these are from?

[enjoymyatelier]

If I did, I would have already specified it.

[madethemproud]

Do you know anything else?

[enjoymyatelier]

You said that you've got a general idea of what this place entails-exactly how much have you been filled in on?

[madethemproud]

We're stuck here, some force is keeping us here, our powers are gone, something about using creatures called Personas, creatures attack at night, and worse stuff happens depending on moon phases. [He's ticking them off his fingers as he speaks.]

[enjoymyatelier]

That would be it, yes.

[madethemproud]

Nothing else to say about it?

[enjoymyatelier]

Were they not thorough enough?

[madethemproud]

Since no one seems to have any idea why we're here, no.

[enjoymyatelier]

That is, unfortunately, something no one's managed to figure out thus far. There are theories, of course, but nobody knows enough about how this place functions for them to be anything more than vague.

[madethemproud]

That's just great.

[enjoymyatelier]

It's frustrating beyond belief. I'm sure that if any powers beyond that of the common human weren't replaced by an entirely different system of magic upon arrival we'd be much better equipped to analyze the situation.

[madethemproud]

That's probably why they were replaced.

[enjoymyatelier]

There being a reason behind it doesn't make it any better.

[madethemproud]

No. No, it doesn't.

[enjoymyatelier]

I suppose there's really nothing that can be done about it.

[madethemproud]

Until we find a way out.

[enjoymyatelier]

There was no questioning that.
