1st Devotion: confusion, stress

Brother! What's the meaning of this?!

The least you could do is to face me! This is a new skill, I wasn't aware that you were capable of catching me so off guard that I have no memory of my abduction. To take me from my apartme--

[Solomon comes into view of the camera, his fierce eyes zeroing in to the fact that he's being recorded]Amshel! You better not have touched a hair on Saya's head, or so help me...!

[He takes a deep breath, and forces his features to compose themselves. Slowly, his mouth twists into a polite assured smile.] No, you don't have her, do you? If you did, I have no doubt that you'd have been sure to let me know. You were never one to be light handed in your punishments.

Might I remind you that Diva gave me leave to go, Brother. I won't be subject to your experiments like Karl was...

[His voice comes out a soft warning growl.]Answer me!

Saya!

.................. what is this?

Are you... alright?

What are you doing here?

Re: voice

[favoritetraitor.livejournal.com]

... this isn't an abduction, is it? Unless my captors are being uncommonly communicative.

What's happened?

Re: voice;

[favoritetraitor.livejournal.com]

I... am at a bit of a loss as to how to answer that.

Re: voice

If it is an abduction then I've been captured as well.

Though, 'abduction' is probably rather accurate. However, your captors are not who you think they are.

You are in the City. An unfortunate name but the correct one all the same. You have been brought here by the deities and will stay here until they decide you can leave.

[She lets out a soft, frustrated noise.]

Diva must be nearby.

Experiments?

[Too distracted to notice the comment] I'm not sure if I should be relieved to hear your voice or not. Saya, you haven't been harmed, have you? Where are you?

voice;

[hematophagy.livejournal.com]

Why would I tell you that?

Re: Voice

[favoritetraitor.livejournal.com]

... It does seem that Amshel is not behind this after all. Well, that's a relief. Who am I addressing?

Re: Voice

[akaladybasene.livejournal.com]

I am Lady Basene.

Re: voice

The City? [Soft footfalls recede away from the recording device as he goes to the window] It is... a puzzling situation.

[His voice is wary, skeptical.] Who are these... deities, as you call them? And why have I been targeted?

Re: Voice

[favoritetraitor.livejournal.com]

Forgive my rudeness, Lady Basene. You seem to have caught me at a bad moment. I am Solomon Goldsmith...

Are you a... captive of this City as well?

These deities are being more powerful than any of us here and run things. They invoke curses upon us every few days and some people have the courage to try making deals with them.

As for why...well, if I knew the answer to that then I'd know why I'm here too. Sadly, that is not the case.

Such a polite young man. That's nice to see. It is such a pleasure Solomon.

Sadly, I must say that I am.

I'm afraid you're not really home anymore...and that it's not what you think.

Re: voice; 2/2

[favoritetraitor.livejournal.com]

I assure you, Saya...

I'm not the one behind this. Don't be afraid. At the very least, tell me if you're alright...

Re: voice

[favoritetraitor.livejournal.com]

I see. Have there been any demands? And what is the level of... 'our' captivity?

WELCOME TO THE CITY~! ♥ ♥ ♥

Re: voice

We are pretty much free to do as we please. We simply cannot leave this place. Your first question I don't have a known answer for but mine is no.

[favoritetraitor.livejournal.com]

This is... concerning. Just how many have been taken?

Who is this?
