[ It'd kinda taken a backseat with everything else going on, but there's still something that's been bothering her a bit. She could just dismiss it as a kid making things up but... after everything she's experienced here, and back home, she's got a gut feeling there's more to it.

She can't search the internet like she used to but... well that doesn't mean crowdsourcing is off the table. ]

Hey, did anybody else run into a weird girl on their first day here? A little kid, blonde hair.

Also does anybody know what the name of this "linkshell" means? Kali Shashidhwaja. She mentioned that, along with telling me that "she" would try to hurt me if I ever lost it and was alone.

[ As a final note, she added the two pictures the girl had doodled, described as follows: " There was a crude drawing of a feminine figure with purple eyes standing over what appeared to be the corpses of a human and a moogle, looking a bit eerily similar to Futaba and her moogle even though the drawing was crude. " Along with "This time the figures looking like Futaba and her moogle were standing alive, and were surrounded by other figures. They faced toward the purple-eyed figure, who seemed to be fleeing."

And now, to see what information others might have... ]

Personally I wouldn't take everything that we see here for granted. There could be a lot going on that we don't know about.

[ She's speaking a little too much from experience here. ]

TRUE. AND I SUPPOSE THE FACT THAT TWO PEOPLE SPOKE ON THE MATTER LENDS CREDENCE TO THAT FACT...

BUT IT DOES LEAVE ONE WONDERING WHY WE'RE HERE. WHAT THIS MEANS FOR OUR WORLDS AS WELL, AND THE PEOPLE WE LEFT BEHIND.

Ugh, don't remind me.

[ Look she's still a bit concerned for her worlds? Even though Ren and Makoto both told her that her immediate concern had worked out okay, and the latter had told her that eventually everything had worked out fine. But. Still. ]

There seem to be some time paradoxes with some of us. Which could mean that our worlds don't know that we're missing, somehow? We don't know for sure, and from what we're being told, nobody's ever made it back to find out.

[ She doesn't have much more than a layman's perspective on multiversal theory and those kind of theoretical sciences. It was the psychology and physical health areas she dove into on her own time. ]

HMM... WHAT SORT OF TIME PARADOXES HAVE YOU ENCOUNTERED THUS FAR? THIS COULD BE CRUCIAL!!! PERHAPS IT'S WORTH DOCUMENTING ANY POTENTIAL DISCREPANCIES BETWEEN THOSE FROM SHARED WORLDS. JUST IN CASE.

[Because he'll cling to even the faintest sliver of hope at this point! Anything's better than having a more depressing outlook, at any rate.]
