Well I certainly do not appear to be in the Medium anymore. It seems I
have landed in Atlantis, of all places. How very peculiar; I suppose
it’s possible the game glitched and tossed me here.

But Atlantis. Really? I expected more excitement than that. Hell,
perhaps? No, that would be rather cliché. Atlantis is going to have to
suffice.

I woke up soaked to my bones in a city under the water, and I find out it's not Atlantis?

I now have all of the disappointment.

Yeah well, Atlantis doesn't randomly kidnap people, anyway.

This place's name is Vatheon. You're dragged here from your world for no reason, and you're supposed to touch the coral reef in the middle of the plaza once a week. Everything's free, even housing.

Fascinating.

Are there flying pigs that spew forth rainbows from their dirty unmentionables?

Raunchy mental images aside, I do hope you realize how ridiculous your explanation is.

[itskidflash.livejournal.com]

Ridiculous or not, it's true. Ask anyone, especially the locals.

[analyzing-you.livejournal.com]

They look oh so approachable, almost as if they deal with wet girls wielding magic wands on a daily basis.

[itskidflash.livejournal.com]

They've dealt with weirder. And they're actually pretty nice Just... Weird.

I would prefer to avoid the locals until I've ascertained that everything you've told me is indeed true. And ideally after I've ceased this messy dripping.

[itskidflash.livejournal.com]

Alright. You go ahead and do that. Just don't say nobody told you before.

I had hoped it wouldn't come to me literally having to beat you in the face with the fact I've been hinting that I would appreciate a little assistance. Alas, subtlety was meant to be lost on you.

Where can I acquire a towel and a chance of clothes?

[itskidflash.livejournal.com]

Oh! Then... There's stores all around the plaza, that's the place with the giant coral reef in the middle. You should be able to find everything you need around there.

[analyzing-you.livejournal.com]

Good, thank you.

You should look into buying a guide to subtlety for your future benefit. I hear the 'for dummies' series may be coming out with one soon.

Haha, it's funny because we're an alternate dimension that probably won't get it.
