CHEVEREL
MATILDA

ADYUVAMME

[Matilda can read but not write, so...yes. The last word is (badly spelt) Latin for 'help me' (and incidentally quite similar to the Spanish for the same). She does know English!]

	I am sorry, I did not realise you spoke English. I asked you what year you remember it being last. For me, for example, it was 1952. Does that sound strange to you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Ah! By God it is writing what I say! No, stop, do not write that. Erase that. No.

Well, let it then, it will be easier.

I did not realise you knew Pretannic. I am Matilda Cheverel and I do not know who brought me to this star-place but I must leave it. You must let me speak with your lord to arrange it. I do not know how you count your years in Hiberia but in Pretannica it is the year of our lord 1424.

Nice to meet you, Matilda.

I’m sorry, no one knows who brought us here, and there is no way to return home until the fates decide it is so.

You are very out of time. The year here is 2022, from what we understand. I know, it sounds ridiculous.

We have no lord. I suppose Mr Hamilton would be the closest thing, since he runs the town hall. He has an office at the university complex on wheel 3. I can escort you if you like.

	It sounds impossible. All of it, impossible. It would be less difficult to believe we were dead, or that I am mad. It is Lady Matilda, or Mistress Cheverel if you are plain-speaking, I do not mind. How shall I rightly address you? I do not understand all of what you have written, but yes, I will meet with your Lord Hamilton please, as soon as is convenient. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I know. But it is all true. Okay, sorry. Just Bruno is fine. I’ll check if he’s available and we can go this morning. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Bruno. You are a kind man to help me this way, Bruno. Where are you? I slept under the stars last night, and I have not seen a soul. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	falling_sand 2022-04-04 10:01 pm UTC (link)
	Of course, it's no problem. You did? Oh, there are apartments, and hotels, and all sorts of places to stay. I live on wheel 2. Are you in a park? (Reply to this) (Parent)

	I don't know what's going on here, but I'm clearly not dead and whoever she might be she's not a Cheverel. I know the Cheverel daughters. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Private falling_sand 2022-04-02 08:22 am UTC (link)
	Could she be from a different time, when you are already dead? The future? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Private brannenford 2022-04-02 08:30 am UTC (link)
	She could be. That's an alarming thought. She writes very strangely but who knows what will happen in the future? I'm probably obliged to go and find her, aren't I? And there I had planned on tea and telenovelas today. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Private falling_sand 2022-04-03 08:31 pm UTC (link)
	Wrong direction! She is from 1424, which is even stranger, in a way. I wouldn't disturb your plans for anything, that sounds very pleasing. I am to take her to Hamilton, she wants someone 'official' and I am not very. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Incredibly strange, for her and us both. She must be talking about one of my ancestors.

Thank you! It isn't that I don't want to help, only - well, you'll look after her, I'm sure of that. You've as much information about this place as Hamilton, I'm sure, but whatever keeps her happy. If he isn't what she hoped, or she's upset by him, will you direct her to me, afterwards? I do not know an awful lot about Pretannica in 1424, but I know more than anyone else here, and Callaine and I will try to calm her.

	This place is very peculiar that way. I know, of course. Hamilton and I will do just fine I'm sure, but I will let you know if we come into any trouble. 1424, goodness me. You are a very modern man. (Reply to this) (Parent)
