[ there is a teenage boy sitting in a forest and looking with narrowed eyes at whatever is recording him. he's definitely unusual, but the most notable feature he has is a bunch of weird tattoos all over his arms. ]

So, this really does connect to other worlds, does it? I knew there were more out there, but I never imagined that there would be so many. And you all travel without Dimensional ÄRM... It's incredible. If we had known about this sooner—

[ he cuts himself off, biting back on whatever he was going to say, and he shakes his head. ]

It doesn't matter. That's in the past.

I'm interested in two things. Firstly, I want to know if any of you have heard of a particular world. It's called Earth; I don't know the details beyond that. I just know that it exists, and it's accessible.

Secondly, I'd like to see if anyone capable of travelling between dimensions can get to this world. I don't know if it's possible... but I have to try. [ he closes his eyes and leans his head back against the tree behind him. ] This is MÄR Heaven. And if anyone at all can reach it, you might just be able to save this entire world.

( ooc | upon trying to worldhop to MÄR, characters will just find a big door that will not open under any circumstances. )

[ he gives her the frankly confused look of someone in middle ages europe. ]

Science? I'm proposing a test.

[zuipperpips]

[guardiss]

A sexy... [ verdict: other worlds are weird as hell. ] What's wrong with your writing?

[hulloeverything]

First - Yes. Second - Yes. I'm there right now, actually.

[He pauses, frowning as he looks over the boy]

Your world is in danger?

[guardiss]

So, we can still connect to it. That's a relief.

[ he nods. ] It isn't immediate, but there's a war coming, and I'm doubtful that we have the men we need to fight it. I don't plan on giving up easy, but having help from another world... Let's say that it's worked well for us in the past.

[guardiss]

I don't know what any of those things are, and as long as you're coming here, I don't really care. Let's just hope that you don't end up somewhere unfortunate.

[guardiss]

[ for a moment he looks surprised, and then like he kind of wants to smack himself in the face. ]

It does, actually. The door is closed... You won't be able to get through, but I'm sure that if you try again a week from now, it'll be a different story. [ the exasperated tone changes to something more interested. ] Still, I'm impressed that you could even get that far. Other worlds have more to offer than just soldiers, it seems.

[whysomean]

Nice tattoos, dude.

[guardiss]

[ he flinches badly, and recovers after a second to give her a narrow-eyed scowl. ]

They aren't as nice as you think.

[whysomean]

Right, touchy, got it.

Don't know much 'bout an Earth, though.

[guardiss]

[ he's still a little edgy about the mention of the tattoo, but he eases when she backs off. ]

Since I already found someone that does, I can at least be sure that it's still out there. That means you come from another world entirely, though, which is just as interesting.

[regalbearing]

Welcome. I believe the majority of people here live on various versions of the planet Earth, or such is the impression I have formed. May I ask what your interest in it is?

As for your second request, I am afraid I cannot help you personally, but I wish you luck in finding someone who can. Is your world in so much danger?

[guardiss]

Very soon, I'll be bringing a stranger from Earth to this world. It's good to hear that we can still connect to it.

And as for the second... [ he nods gravely. ] I'm afraid that it is. We're facing a war that almost destroyed this land in the past - and we have less than half the men we had at that time.

[hulloeverything]

[He frowns] there are never enough for any war... Nor is it possible for any war to have a happy ending...

I'm sorry. I'm so sorry but I don't know if I can help you...

[whysomean]

Yeah, my dad rules the Nightosphere.

[guardiss]

We survived the previous war. I'm not about to let MÄR fall to this one, with or without the assistance of outsiders. But we might be able to call in at least one.

[guardiss]

Nightosphere? I've never heard of it.

[hulloeverything]

I wish I could help, truly I do... [He's even wearing a name tag that says "My name is The Doctor. I'm here to help" right now.]

I just... I haven't got time. Not... Not for a war. If I were going to whisk you away from there bad bring you somewhere better I could probably find time but... [he sighs, closing his eyes] you could say I'm in the middle of my own battle...

Permavid

[eternallybored]

If you do not know of the Earth, I am sure there are many a textbook that can inform you of all you wish to know about it, and then some. Although, I could not imagine why you would want to learn more of it, for there are surely other worlds with more interesting planets.

[guardiss]

It's fine. I don't expect you to abandon your own battle to fight mine. The War Games would happen whether I had the connection to this portal or not. [ taking care of your own situation is something he feels very strongly about. ]

And besides that, if the girl who tried to travel here is right, it seems we're not currently accepting visitors.

[guardiss]

No matter how interesting other worlds or planets might be, it's only Earth that I need. I don't have much of a choice in the matter.

[eternallybored]

Is there something unlikable about your own...?
