The population seems to have suddenly increased recently, and I do not mean of the locals. [There's a hint of curiosity as well as slight concern in his voice when that's said. It looks to him that these Gods are getting more outside help and he almost has to wonder if it's really justifiable to bring in more people for their assumed cause. He understands the whole "strength in numbers" approach but when more than half of them don't understand what it is they need to do, it's just a little frustrating.]

Though it's rather pointless, I apologize for those of you that are new and expecting explanations on how to return home from those of us that have been here longer. The only real key to that seems to be our task of returning color and life to this world. The first wave of newcomers may only offer so many answers, though at least this might make it a little easier for a larger group approach at understanding our situation better.

But, I have a question, for anyone that is willing to answer it. It's hardly mandatory. We've all basically been assigned as "heroes" of this land, to assist the Gods and locals in a troubled and difficult time. If you were actually given the choice to say yes or no to their plea, what would be your response? [Just before he's about to end his question there, he decides to tack on a little something extra.] --not just in this case. Would you ever choose to be some kind of hero?

Mm... I don't know, since they took it away on purpose, what if trying just makes people explode? Because it makes the Gods mad or something!

[That's kind of an extreme.]

I assure you that that won't happen. I had powers of my own before arriving here and when I attempted to see if they still worked, merely nothing happened.

[Haaaappy sigh,] That's a relief~ I don't think I'd feel very comfortable going along with this color-business if they were evil deities. Thanks! You've been pretty helpful.

Mm, you're more than welcome. Their generosity at the moment is rather questionable but aside from the 'kidnapping', I don't actually believe they've done very much to be considered an actual threat.

[At least not yet, but that's pretty pessimistic and would probably worry him if mentioned.]

Questionable? How so?

We're given housing, we're fed and clothed to a sustainable degree and I've seen little negative reaction to our presence by native locals... though it hardly seems like they're capable of any sort of reaction actually.

Like that maid!! She was terrifying! [An audible shudder in his voice before he continues] Maybe they're trying to make up for kidnapping us?

There's an odd lack of... emotion, yes. It can be unnerving.

I believe most would say that if they wished to "make up" for all this, what they could do is send us back instead but that's obviously a major flaw in their desired plan to fix this world.

That wouldn't really count though, would it? Kidnapping everyone only to make up by sending them back... not that I'd be against it, but that feels like it'd be twice as weird!

I'm not quite sure. These Gods might be capable of just about anything, though I suppose that's simple enough to rule out.
