Hello to our recent newcomers. Welcome to Exsilium.

Please do not panic, we just got the place looking decent again. There is nothing you can do to return home of your own abilities. This has been tested by many people over the space of ten months now.

There is a guide to Exsilium put together by other transports. It can be found here.

If you are a healer, doctor, or medical professional of some other kind, there is an active clinic always looking for new recruits. They can be contacted here.

If you wish to consider joining the recently formed police force, they can be contacted at [ insert an address + ooc link ].

Should you simply wish to drink yourself into forgetting this has happened, I have attached a list of places alcohol can be found here. This method is highly endorsed.

Do enjoy your stay.

[ she figures she might as well put all her organization to temporary use. her personal annotated list of places you can drink or obtain alcohol is attached as a downloadable file. exsilium newbies' guide originally posted here. ]

Does that include you?

No, I've had practice.

Good for you.

I think the people here have had practice, too.

The ones who are supposed to be?

Or the people like you?

The natives.

Like me?

The people who aren't natives.

That seems to depend almost entirely on how long they've been here and what prior experience they've had.

I have my suspicions.

But I've been told I'm very suspicious.

Sometimes that can be a good thing. What suspicions do you have?

Well. I don't think everyone they've roped into this is a fighter. But I don't think they've found many accountants, either.

And you think this means something?

I don't think it's random.

How do you explain the artists and others whose talents don't seem to have any applicable use in war?

I said that I don't think it's random, not that I think it's smart. There's a lot of things between choice and chance, after all.

Have you heard of Gathering of All Stars?

I have not. What is it?

A superstition.

It goes like this— some people are born under a Star of Destiny. There are 108 Stars, and if they are ever bound together in a single cause, that is a power strong enough to shift fate.

I think it's nonsense, myself.

But you're considering it a possibility, nevertheless.

No. I just suspect a similar philosophy.

The again, my wife tells me I'm very suspicious.

It would be an interesting explanation.

Suspicious natures can be useful.

Not in spouses.

No? That I'm afraid I wouldn't know about.

I don't know too much about it, either. Maybe that's my problem.

She's not here with you, is she?

No. She isn't.

Perhaps you'll have time to learn, then.
