[ . . .He wants to kick himself for discarding the magic device he had found by his ear upon arrival. While the words it had said were nonsense, it wasn't until later that he comes to understand that it may be his only way to find the princess.

. . . And now his companion whom he separated with earlier to go search for it. By now he's given up on finding the magic object. More important, he thinks, is reuniting. They can look for the ear piece later.

At some point he procured material to paint with, as well as a notebook. Apparently the metal beings- which originally he had been wary of could understand him. With the notebook, he's already quickly sketched something within. And with that he wanders around the current sector he's within, and approaches anyone who will spare him a moment.]


Excuse me. [He lifts a clawed hand up to catch their attention and approaches seriously.] I have a missing person to report. He's a boy who appears around the age of sixteen or seventeen, with blond hair, blue eyes, and might have invited himself over for a meal. [Lifting the notebook up there's an incredible sketch on the paper of the boy in question.]



His name is Zeno and he should be in orange...attire like myself. You may have seen him sleeping in a random location, and tends to roam around like a vagabond. If you find him, please return him to me.

[ . . . Maybe he should put up a few posters.]

[Closed to The Happy Hungry Bunch]

[ . . . Apparently he truly is within a foreign country. He can't understand anything anyone has been saying here. But somehow they can understand him? He thinks. The sun is beginning to set, and he realizes that if he doesn't find Zeno soon, or the magical device he'll have to sleep outside without any of his belongings. He's certainly become used to sleeping beneath the stars, even if he isn't particularly a fan. But usually he has a pillow, blanket, and the proper equipment.

Troubled, he expels a sigh, brows knitting as he stares down at the blank page in front of him. Perhaps he should paint the princess, too... She is who he needs to find most of all. If she is alone without one of them now, she must surely be worried. Frustration curls his lips down, a determined expression crossing his features.]


Do not worry, Princess. We will surely find you again. [In the meantime he can only hope that she is with Hak, Jae-Ha, Yoon, and Shin-ah.]

[OOC: Kija does not have his communication device on. He speaks Koukan... which is Korean based-ish, so he likely wont be able to understand anyone, but they should still be able to understand him. P.S. Forgive Kija's terrible art skills.]

[Congratulations! You have found a princess!

It still counts even if it isn't the right princess, doesn't it?

It would certainly be helpful to have his communicator though because while Euphie's communicator will translate everything Kija is saying he'll only be able to hear her Britannian English in return.]
Oh, hello. There certainly are a lot of you looking for him. I spoke to him earlier on the network, but I don't know where he is now.

[Another princess, what!?]

Ah...

[ It's-- a very beautiful young woman. And her hair is certainly unlike most he's seen before. (Like he can talk considering his friends). He pauses and blinks uncomprehending down at her as she speaks.]

. . . I am sorry, miss. I am afraid that I do not understand you.

You're not wearing your communicator. [Yes, that's helpful, Euphie.

She reaches up tapping her own.]

[He stares a moment more, before she reaches up to tap the object upon her ear.]

The... magic object with the voice inside of it? I had one upon arrival but I lost it. [ . . . More like tossed it but he regrets that now.] I have attempted to retrace my steps but have been unsuccessful in my attempts to find it again.

Your own...?

[Glancing up at her he nods, before carefully putting it on. It's so small that it feels fragile within his claw.]

Like this, right?

I'm afraid I don't know what you're saying now, but you should be able to understand me at least. The communicator translates for us. I'm afraid I don't know your language either. I can take you to the kiosk so you can get a new one though.

Kiosk...?

[So this is a communicator, is what it is called? It makes sense. Still, he marvels over the fact that now he can understand her clearly where as before it had been impossible.

Of course like this she wont understand his response. Removing it, he hands it back to her. If they need to communicate like this for a moment it should be fine, though. Carefully he hands it back to her.]


I would like to visit this kiosk place. If you could tell me where to find it, I would greatly appreciate that. It is important that I find my companions again. And this...communicator seems to be the best method.

[She nods after listening to his request and removes the communicator again, handing it back to him and waiting until it's in position.] I'll take you there. When you have a communicator of your own again I can show you how the map works. I don't want you to get lost before that. I know how important it must be to find your friends.

[She gives him a sweet smile and then lifts a hand to stop him from removing the communicator yet.]

My name is Euphie. I'm pleased to meet you.

[Lifting a hand up to his chest, he realizes she wont understand unless he keeps it simple. Euphie... it is certainly unlike any name he's heard before. He smiles while he delivers his own.]

Hakuryuu.

[If she had on her device it would possibly translate out to 'White Dragon', instead, He removes it however and passes it back to her, and only speaks again once she has it back on.]

It is a pleasure to meet you, Miss Euphie. I am in your debt and appreciate your help. I must find my master. I am concerned about her due to our separation. And I would like to find Zeno and a couple of my other comrades, too.

Hakuryuu. [She repeats before she even puts the device back on. She gestures in the direction they need to go before giving the communicator back to him.]

You'll be able to call for them too. If they haven't thrown away their communication devices they should hear it eventually at least.

[ He... slumps just the tiniest bit when she mentions the possibility of his companions tossing their communication devices, too.]

I certainly hope not... [Although it would be frustrating if he's the only one who was so frustrated that he left it behind. Remembering that she can't understand him this way he hands the device back to her.]

There are many strange things within this place that I cannot fully comprehend yet. These communicators are one of them.

[She nods and returns the communicator to him.] I'll be more than happy to teach you anything you'd like to know. We also have a school here which might help.

A school...?

[He blinks.] I have received my education already, although I was tutored privately. I once snuck down to the school within my village to see what it was like though. And have visited on a couple of occasions. [To encourage the children studying.]

But you believe this school will explain about the magic here?

[It's a little slow going passing the communicator back and forth, but they're making it work.] The magic? Ah, yes, it would explain that. It isn't really magic at all though.

[Handing it back to her, he gives her an inquisitive glance.]

How else does a voice produced in one location end up in another at such a great distance? Or a basin produce mini waterfalls of water at just a touch?

[A basin and mini waterfalls?] Do you mean a sink? Where you wash your hands? That's indoor plumbing. I'm afraid I don't know much about how it works, but I don't think it's actually as complicated as it might seem. And the communicators work on various frequencies sending signals through the air and then decoding them again. But I probably don't understand it well enough to explain the details either. [So many things she takes for granted that other people can create and maintain.]

[Yona is still walking the seemingly endless streets of the city, taking in every new house, every unfamiliar structure with wonder in her eyes. On her way she picks up a discarded communicator and unsure what to do with it decides to keep it. It's like a bread crumb that - unbeknownst to her - brings her one step closer to meeting Kija. She keeps walking one step at a time, for it makes it far easier to not think too hard about what has happened. About the possibility that apart from her and Zeno none of the others might be here.

But just as the thought enters her mind again, she lays eyes on a familiar form not too far from her and breaks into a run without thinking about it.]


Kija!

[The sound of that voice is so familiar that it takes him aback. With the exception of Zeno, and a strange girl he's come across here he's had a difficult time communicating with others. His name upon those lips causes him to straighten, however, blue eyes widening.]

Princess...?

[Standing up he turns around and he feels an entire weight lift from his chest. It's her. She's here. At once he drops his things as he moves to meet her. Rushing, eyes filled with clear concern and worry he reaches a hand out to her.]

Princess, you're here! Are you all right? I have been searching for you!

[By the time Yona reaches Kija she is beaming, her face filled with both relief and sheer happiness at seeing the white dragon. He appears to be fine and of course he is more concerned for her safety than his own. The familiar sight makes Yona smile at him warmly, making it very clear that he needn't worry, as she captures his hand with both her own, holding it gently but firmly.]

Kija, I am so glad to see you.

[The communicator that she still held onto, now touches Kija's hand, but she doesn't really notice, instead her gaze moves on to the pile of papers lying where Kija just sat.]

What have you been doing?

[She catches a glimpse of a figure with bright yellow hair and many separate pictures, some of which are crumpled and seemingly discarded showing someone with bright red hair.]

[His hand gently tightens upon hers. It's good to realize that she's safe. This is not the place for her, but as long as she is unharmed then they can work on a way of breaking out. He feels something in her hand though, and when he glances down his eyes widen. Her own is still upon her ear, so this...]

Princess...! You have found the magic communicator. [Have they been going in circles this whole time...?]

While looking for you, I--

[He catches her glancing over toward his pile of failed attempts at portraying her beauty and inserts himself in front of her, a faint smile on his face and a blush spreading across his cheeks.]

A-Ah, it is... it is nothing. I was just attempting to find a way to locate you. I lost the device with the voice in it, you see. And so I... was attempting to look for you on foot by various methods.

[Surprise spreads on Yona's face and it's long enough for Kija to step in her line of sight and thus stop her from looking at the drawings.]

So this is yours? I found it not too far from here. [It's really a happy accident for her and the device to have found their way back to Kija together.]

I see. Thank you for always watching out for me, Kija. [They were friends - comrades - maybe even the closest thing to a family any of them would ever have and because of that it was normal for them to think of the others first and do anything to protect them. But nevertheless, Yona wanted him to know how much she appreciated this.]

Can I see them? [Yona smiles and while she doesn't want to tease Kija too much she is also more than a little intrigued to see something Kija has drawn.]

I am more than happy to. [It's his duty and what's more being useful to her... being near her always makes him happiest.

. . . Even if he has concerns for his heart in moments like this.

Suddenly anxious color decorates his cheeks against his will and he feels suddenly self conscious. His village and granny have always praised his art. The best in the country they've always said It's not, but somehow he's embarrassed over it now.]


Y-Yes, here. This was my attempt to paint Zeno.

[He passes over the notebook after turning it back to the appropriate page. There's no need to tell her what the crumpled pieces of art at their feet are.]

[The way his face flushes and he can no longer meet her don't escape Yona. Before she takes a look at the picture he shows her, she places her hand on his forehead in an attempt to take his temperature. Normally Yoon would be in charge of things like this, but he isn't here now and Yona wants to do something even if it isn't much.]

Your face is really red, but you don't seem to have a fever. [Relieved, she smiles warmly at him, her eyes wandering to the picture of Zeno. Her smile widens as she sees it.] That clearly is our Zeno.

[If anything her small touch merely darkens her cheeks more. Swallowing thickly, he lifts a hand up and shakes his head.]

Y-You needn't worry, I am fine.

[This just seems to happen often when they're near one another. When she compliments his portrait, however, he looks up.]

Do you think so? I have not painted in quite some time...
