Thanks. I hope so, too.

[ But enough of that.. ] What about you? What was your world like?

[jiaohua]

Circumstances were not... nearly so dire as in your world. [she shrugs lightly.] We lived in the capital city.

[punnier]

So far, it seems like all our worlds are pretty different. [ Still, they're curious to know them. ] What was the capital city like?

[jiaohua]

Well... it is a bustling place, full of people. The imperial palace is there, of course, so dignitaries and merchants would often come to the city as well...

[punnier]

Imperial palace? [ Oh. ] As expected from a capital city then. I think the biggest city I can think of in Vaugarde is Jouvente.. I know they have several Houses there.

[jiaohua]

"Houses"... noble houses, you mean?

[punnier]

[ Head shake. ]

In Vaugarde, Houses are primarily a place of worship for the Change belief.

[jiaohua]

Oh! Like a temple, then.

[punnier]

Something like that, yeah. I think Ka Bue have temples... or um, shrines. But in Vaugarde, they refer to them as Houses.

[jiaohua]

What is the "Change belief," anyway?

[punnier]

Mmm, it's not a religion I follow but two of my companions are a part of it. [ Tries to remember how they worded it.. ] But it's a religion practiced in most of Vaugarde whose ideals are about change in both its practitioners and in the world as a whole.

It encourages its practitioners to constantly change things such as their appearances, personalities, interests, and aspects of their life. [ It's like reading off a script for them to say out loud. ] They're really welcoming to people from anywhere though, so anyone can join at anytime if they want.

[jiaohua]

Oh. The name is a bit... on the nose, isn't it?

[punnier]

[ A quiet chuckle. ]

Yeah. It is.

[jiaohua]

If it's not a religion you follow... is there a different one that you do?

[punnier]

[ (...) ]

There is, but.. I don't remember much about it.

[jiaohua]

You don't...?
