[Sometime in the morning, there will be a blonde making a video call. It takes her a first try--this is far ahead of her own technology, but she's into computers, so it's not too difficult, really. More intriguing than anything else.]

I suppose before I go on, it would be wise to at least offer an introduction of myself, wouldn't it? After all, one would think it would be best to get to know the people that will be surrounding you for as long as you might stay here.

My name is Fuu Hououji. I'm fifteen years old, a Sagittarius, blood type A. I'm not entirely sure how injuries work here, but if I am ever in need of a blood transfusion, and unable to communicate this properly, it would be imperative that someone knew. I normally reside in Tokyo, Japan, though I suppose that has changed, now.

[Fuu pauses to think. There's plenty of other things she could say. But she won't say any of them.]

I appreciate the warm welcome to the city, and I'm sure it will be a pleasure to meet all of you. However, I would appreciate an explanation of the exact details of what is going on, and if possible, why I have been summoned. I hope that, at least, would not be too much trouble.

I wish I could tell ya how or why any of us are here. We don't know yet.

[phoenix-temple.livejournal.com]

That is unfortunate. One would think there'd at least be some sort of reasoning behind something that seems fairly elaborate...

[genius-idiot.livejournal.com]

Everyone on your phone's contact list just showed up outta nowhere one day, no explanation. Someone obviously wants us here though, and these phones are the biggest clues.

[phoenix-temple.livejournal.com]

That's really it? It's not much to go on at all... though somethings is better than nothing.

[rocker]

It is good to see someone with good enough manners to give such an extensive introduction when they first arrive. [ he nods. ]

Feel free to call me Archer, in return. Unfortunately I don't have as much information to give out, but please accept that much in return. [ what is being a Servant. ] This place is called Prospero rather than Tokyo.

[phoenix-temple.livejournal.com]

It's a pleasure to meet you, Archer-san. I only felt it right--after all, I doubt anyone here knows my information.

That's something to go on. It's better to at least know one thing than nothing.

[rocker]

Unless there is someone you know around, perhaps. It seems that some of the people were already familiar with each other before they met in this place.

There are a few other things I know too though. Did anyone warn you about the 'Dark Hour' yet?

[phoenix-temple.livejournal.com]

Hopefully, if that is the case, my friends will be in contact with me soon.

If you would, I'd like to hear what you know about it, please.

Age? Zodiac? Blood type? You trying to find a date, girlie?

[phoenix-temple.livejournal.com]

A date? Oh, not at all. I just figured it best to have a detailed introduction. [This is normal for her.]

[byeontae-geomi.livejournal.com]

Oh don't pull that innocent act. You give blood type to only two kinds of people. People at the donation center and people you intend to fuck.

[phoenix-temple.livejournal.com]

What?! No! Not at all! Why would I ever--?! [Inside of Fuu's head currently running: adkfjandkfjnkjgnskjgnkjnyhaoiroaragjg!!]

[windsofdaytime.livejournal.com]

Why is an introduction so important, anyway?

[phoenix-temple.livejournal.com]

A first impression is imperative. It would be rude of me to start demanding answers without offering at least an introduction of myself.

[windsofdaytime.livejournal.com]

Does it matter?

[phoenix-temple.livejournal.com]

Of course. I'd like to get along with everyone.

[needsteaplz.livejournal.com]

It's nice to meet you, Fuu. My name's Saori Nakagawa.

I'm afraid there's not many answers available on why we were brought here. Everyone on your phone contacts have been brought from their home world to this one. We're on an island called Prospero, apparently it's off the eastern coast of the United States. Time wise, it's 2011.

This place is normal for the most part. Every night at midnight, however, things change. It's an event called the Dark Hour. Creatures called Shadows appear and they're a pain to deal with. None of the local citizens know about its existence. They're all transformed into coffins with no memory of that hour.

I know this can be a lot to take in at a time, but don't be afraid to ask any of us if you have questions.

[phoenix-temple.livejournal.com]

[And she finally knows what it is to be on the receiving end of an information overload.]

It's a pleasure to meet you, Saori-san.

So... it is the year 2011, on an American island. And we've been granted ability to see into this "Dark Hour?" What kind of creatures are Shadows, exactly, and how do you know that I won't be transformed in this hour?

[needsteaplz.livejournal.com]

I'm afraid we still don't have any idea what these shadows are and what they want. Several people are researching them now. Just like how I said everyone on your phone's contact list is from different worlds, we also don't turn into coffins. Instead we fight them.

Hi, Fuu and welcome to Prospero!

And the short story is that no one really knows what's going on. Just that people are brought here, somehow, and get involved in things.

[phoenix-temple.livejournal.com]

Thank you for the welcome.

Well, that certainly explains things, doesn't it? [She's amused by this explanation.]

[babel_hacker]

No problem!

There's the longer explanation, but I don't know how you're told about yet.

[greyerrant.livejournal.com]

Welcome to the war, Fuu Hououji. I am Garviel Loken.

[phoenix-temple.livejournal.com]

A war, then? [Well, that's the most blunt way to put it. She sighs a moment, then smiles again.]

It's a pleasure to meet you.

[greyerrant.livejournal.com]

The pleasure is mine, I am sure. Injuries work as they normally do, so you had best be careful.
