chapter 1: introductions

[heartbound]

So, I get that you guys called everyone here from... all these different worlds for this war.

[adell has managed to operate the video on this thing and somehow avoided breaking it. he's operated cellphones before in the netherworld, and... okay, isn't completely technology stupid; after all, televisions and stuff exist too.

he looks at the camera questioningly.]

So what's with the big feasts and dances and all that? I mean, if that's all we're gonna do, you can just send me home now. If you called me here to fight, then let's fight. And if someone'd like to work out and spar with me in the meantime, that'd be great too.

Standing around doing nothing just isn't my style.

Well, I gotta keep my family safe somehow, you know?

[and he's a human. well, not, but for all intents and purposes except blood, he is.]

And I gotta earn money somehow. Might as well earn it doing something I like, right?

[ He nods approvingly. ] Indeed! How very right you are.

Though to survive in the Netherworld, let alone be a demon hunter there, you must be quite strong.

Of course I am.

[adell flexes a little bit. in all fairness, the dude looks like he works out... not that he actually does, but.]

But I mean, if they're bringing all of us here, who know all sorts of stuff, why have us sitting around for so long?

Impressive.

I don't know, but I have every intention of finding the one in charge and asking them.
