[There's a soft groan from the other side of a rock that the PDA currently has a view of, a girl's soft voice as she wakes up.]
Pascal...? Eugene...?
[A blond head can now be seen but only the top of it, the sharp intake of breath as she realizes she's not where she's supposed to be.]
Pa-Pascal?! [Her tone is frantic now, scared.] Eugene!! [She gets to her feet, balance unsteady but you still don't get to see her face, just a long braid full of flowers.]
Pascal! [A discovery! She rushes over to this Pascal that's off screen, murmuring in low and worried tones that aren't picked up as the feed times out.]

That's a relief, though some of them aren't all that bad once you share your dreams. [Long story, don't ask.
But listening now!] Libitina is the girl that gave me the room, then? [She can't be that bad if she gives them shelter, right?] What kind of...strange things?
1/2 [VIDEO]
[Her remark gets a blink and a slight raise of white eyebrows out of Allen, but though it may an unusual thing to say, he doesn't find the principle all that disagreeable.]
That― Sounds like it has quite a story behind it, though I must confess it's not one I've had the privilege of experiencing yet. Suppose I'd better tkae your word for it.
Yes, that's her. We don't know much about her beyond her name, except that she's a spirit and answers to no one but her master. [tone leaning towards dry:] It varies. We've been through everything from losing one of our senses to having all shelter taken away―

So she is a ghost then... [Tyki mentioned it, her being a ghost. And now Rapunzel is looking around the graveyard for her. Aren't ghosts supposed to haunt graveyards?]
2/2 [VIDEO]
[PDA gets a view of her hair now, very close up.] Oh, gosh. Mother's going to kill me. Eugene's going to worry where I am, he's probably looking for me right now. Oh, I hope he's alright. I hope mother doesn't kill him for losing me...
[VIDEO]
[The graveyard is haunted, but. Let's not frighten her needlessly. There's a sympathetic pause after Rapunzel's dismayed outburst, followed by a soft tap-tap from the PDA that will hopefully make her feel less alone.]
[as gently as possible:] Not that we've found. We're still looking, but... At the moment, it looks like Libitina only sends people home at random, sometimes bringing them back again after a while. There doesn't seems to be a pattern. If it helps, though, we've found out that time back home is on hold while we're here. When people are sent home, they're always returned to the exact point in time from which they were taken. I'm sure your mother and friend are both doing fine! We'll just have to work on finding a way out as soon as possible, so you can get back to what you were doing.
[VIDEO]
Glancing back at the PDA when Allen starts talking, her worried and concerned expression - almost "crushed" herself - slowly starts to ease off.] I-it doesn't change at home? So they don't know that I'm gone?

[He tried. It's probably better this way for some people, though.]

There's also a thriving city called Credinta on the other side of the river, but we're not welcome there. Whatever happened to the original residents of Nesreca terrified them so much, they're still afraid of this place, and us by association. Their mayor has erected a barrier around the city and given orders for us to be arrested on sight. Unfortunately, they also happen to be our closest source of supplies. Some trips from time to time are unavoidable until we can be more self-sufficient, but please be careful if you decide to go over ― or just let the network know you're running low. I'm sure we'll all be happy to help.

Alma mentioned the city and there were guards but he didn't say that it was that bad. I'm afraid I might stick out like a sore thumb with all my hair, it might be best for me to rely on everyone else for that.
[VIDEO]
[a beat, then]
Beg pardon-- Your hair?
[Well that's. Unexpected. From what he can see within the camera's scope of vision, there's nothing unusual about her hair, though he supposes bright blonde hair can be pretty eye-catching.
In that case.]
It's alright, I'm sure we can find a hat to cover it with. Not that I'd mind helping you with supply runs! Just saying it's an option.
[VIDEO]
I'm afraid a hat won't cover it, Allen. You see it's...very very long and very noticeable. [Moving the camera to show how long her hair is even braided up.]
[VIDEO]
--Only a little! Suppose hats are out of the question. Is it very hard to take care of?
