Character(s): Natalia and YOU!
Content: Arriving-- only to find ruins.
Setting: Ruins of Paixao, near the Muspelheim gate.
Time: Late morning, Week 42.
Warnings: Uh, bossybritches? None, really.


Natalia touched her hand to her lips as she carefully picked her way through the rubble. The gates themselves had looked impressive enough, but... this was what they were supposedly guarding? Something had obviously happened here, and she had the feeling that it had been fairly recent. Were people hurt? Did they need help? As perplexing as she had found her sudden arrival, looking upon the ruined city made her feel that maybe, just maybe, she had been brought here for a very good reason. If she could help, then her annoyance at being brought to this unfamiliar place might have been assuaged, at least a bit.

She gingerly stepped over what appeared to be a fallen lamppost of some kind, tilting her head at the nearest building. Had that been a cafe at one time? Whatever it was, it had certainly seen better days. What, exactly, had caused all of this?

Well, as far as Zexion was aware, there had certainly been casualties. It was hard to have such a destructive event without at least some from of casualties. True, he'd managed to escape unharmed, and he was quite certain others had as well, but that wasn't quite the point. There was still far more to be done than what had been done, that much was clear enough. Still, he'd been largely absent throughout, and certainly wouldn't have been able to answer all the details.

"In that case, I would suggest looking for the loose collections of survivors. I can't promise that all of them will be willing to tolerate newcomers, but if they do, I'm sure whatever you could offer would be of use."
