( The feed cuts on and Spain isn't really paying attention. It looks like he's still playing with the bracelet but it's hard to tell. When he looks up, he's almost surprised to see that it's started to work already. Some day, he'll get used to this magic. Until then, have a welcoming smile, )

It's interesting; I thought I'd seen everything but it looks like there's more out there.

What is your world like? Is it nice? How's the weather? Does it have anything interesting? What about the military. . .

( Spain you aren't being very subtle about your intentions here. )

Speaking of places. ( He holds up his copy of the map that was given to him. He taps at a random area outside the wall, ) Can anyone tell me about what is outside the walls?

Don't be silly! This world isn't your world, is it? So even if you leave the city, unless you figure out how to travel between worlds like they do, you're still stuck.

[conquistador]

Well, it isn't home but perhaps if you travel far enough you can find something familiar. Like an ocean ?

( No Spain. Different world doesn't mean another continent. )

[holmes_fanatic]

I'd rather find my friends.

[conquistador]

Hm? The gods didn't bring your friends here?

( Strange, almost everyone he talked to so far had their friends here too. )

[holmes_fanatic]

It's just me. So you see, no matter what the world looks like, as long as it's not mine, I'm not going to be satisfied.

[conquistador]

( Woah, that's really serious for a kid. Spain looks impressed! To meet someone so young and so passionate! It's admirable

but coming from a kid it's more cute than anything else, buhyoo. )

I'm sure you'll find a way, pequeño.

[holmes_fanatic]

Pequeno?

[Foreign pronunciation is not one of this kid's strengths, sadly.]

[conquistador]

Ah, I'm sorry, I didn't get your name so I just. . . Pequeño. 'Little one.'

[holmes_fanatic]

Ah, so it's like how I call people I don't know 'Niichan' or 'Neechan!'

I'm Edogawa Conan.

[conquistador]

Does it mean the same thing? I'm afraid I don't know what language that is.

( An apologetic laugh, )

Hola, Edogawa Conan. Hm, my name is a little long so you can just call me Spain.

[holmes_fanatic]

Not exactly -- it'd be kind of weird for me to call you, 'little boy' right? It's more like 'older brother!'

It's nice to meet you, Spain-san! And you can call me Conan.

[conquistador]

( That would make sense

And it's so obvious he really can't help but laugh at how he didn't catch on. OH WELL IT HAPPENS A LOT. )

S-sí, of course. I knew that. ( Not. ) Ah, but you seem to know some about what it's like outside. Did you go out there by yourself?

[holmes_fanatic]

Not just by myself -- that'd be really dangerous! But a whole bunch of people went exploring! I went, and my friend John went, and a lot of other people too!

[conquistador]

So a lot of people went out there already. . . ( Blah, that's only a little disappointing. IT doesn't mean he can't explore it himself but it takes away from the mystery some if people have already gone and come back. ) I see. Has anyone mapped these areas yet?

( Spain stop being lazy go to the library and find out for yourself. )

[holmes_fanatic]

You know, that's a good question! If they have, I haven't heard about it.

[conquistador]

Well, it doesn't matter if they don't intend to go back out there again but. . . Hm, I'm sure someone has something!

[holmes_fanatic]

A friend of mine is interested in exploring, but I'm worried -- it's too dangerous to go alone!

[conquistador]

. . .

( Pinged by exploring. )

Really? Which friend? . . . I could go with them!

[holmes_fanatic]

Really? His name's Varon -- he lives in Thor!

[conquistador]

I said I would, didn't I? ( A wink, ) Hm, I don't know who that is but. . . Ay! Don't worry! Your friend will be in good hands. There's no greater explorer than the Kingdom of Spain, right?

[holmes_fanatic]

When you put it like that ... I guess you are an expert!

[conquistador]

Huh? Oh, no, I wouldn't say expert. There's still a lot I don't know, you know? ( Laughing, ) Once I know exactly what is and isn't safe to eat you can call me an expert.

[holmes_fanatic]

I didn't realise food was so difficult.

[conquistador]

Have you ever wondered how people learned what foods were and weren't edible?

( Hint: It isn't fun. )

[holmes_fanatic]

Observation of what the animals native to that area were eating?
