Okay, so I was late for Artemus's training so I ran through the library, stumbled, dropped all of my books and FELL!

THIS IS THE WORST DAY EVER!.

Mmm. Hi.

((OOC Disclaimer: Garrett's run afoul of the Time Glyph and has gone into his past to where he was still with the "Organization". If you ever had any questions about his youth, now is a good time to find out some things. Time Glyph influence is not contagious, this is an isolated incident.))

It's not like that. It's more like I just FEEL like I'll know you someday.

M' name's Garrett.

...You do know me. Or is that weird kid virus going around again?

I know that's your name.

Kid virus? I'm not sick.

There was some weird virus going around and turning everyone into kids. Maybe that happened to you?

I don't think so... I remember everything that happened in my life. I know where I am. 'Snot like...I appeared somewhere...Ya know?

Eventhough I *DO* feel kinda like I shouldn't be here right now. Some deja-vu in that.

Do you remember anything strange happening recently?

I had a sudden migraine when I dropped my books. Like I had two minds. Then it passed.

I wonder if this is how the Interpreters feel.

I don't know what, but it seems like something has made you go back in time, without the memory of it of course.

Is there anything that might do that in your world?

Glyphs. But I'm not really allowed near the powerful ones. When I go near 'em Orland smacks me. :/

But what about when your older? Would you be able to use them then?

I dunno. I'm told I'm the most promising acolyte so maybe. B-But...That would mean I stayed.

This cloistered lifestyle is suffocating. The Loremaster says I gotta get used to it, though, cause we aren't supposed to leave the Compound unless we have to. Even then we need to be unseen in the City.

Basically, we're supposed to Not Exist.

...well that sounds like fun. But you never mentioned any of this stuff before, so maybe you didn't stay?

Hope not. If they even saw me talking about it on this thing they'd probably strike me from the Book of Names.

Speaking of which, any idea what this thing is? I found it under a bookshelf when I fell.

It's called a computer. The internet connects different computers together so we can talk like this.

So do these Glyph things wear off or do they have to be reversed?

I think they need to be reversed. Some of the Glyphs we have around here have been around for as long as the City's existed. Maybe longer.

Huh. But I wonder if you did this to yourself? I mean you didn't sound very happy whenever I talked to you. At least now you sound a little better.

Really? I was unhappy? Why, what was going on?

Um death, destruction, mayhem all that good stuff.

You got really upset about Valentine's day...

Valentine's Day?

A holiday for lovers basically. Everyone was writing love poems to other people and apparently that pissed you off.

Sounds annoying but I can't think of a reason that'd make me angry. I *wish* I had a lover. Around here the word "love" is never mentioned with someone of the other gender in mind. :/

Ah well...

Nevermind.

What?

I don't know if I should tell you...but you mentioned a girl. Her name was Viktoria I think.

Nope, I dunno a Viktoria.
