Hey everyone!

The trip around Vaikuntha has made me realize we barely know anything about what everyone's homes are like, don't we? It's important to learn more about this world if we're to live here, but it's even more important to get to know each others if we're going to live here together. I think we could learn a lot by sharing neat details about what our homeworlds are like.

I come from a planet called Earth. We have no magic or magitek, no jobs or monsters between cities. Most of these things belong to the realm of fantasy and imagination where I come from. It is what the people of my world excel at, creating stories and imaginary worlds with words and images for people to enjoy. We have technology kinda like what they have in Oktavia, but not as advanced.

But anyway, that's it for my homeworld. If you'd like to share what your world is like, I'd love to hear what you have to say.

Thanks for reading,
Monika

It does sound quite strange indeed that we are so many to come from the same world. Who knows, perhaps we are all just characters in a story written by someone from Earth, ahaha.

[ It's written jokingly, but is it a joke? ]

Your homeworld and island do sound lovely. Besides the presence of demon, but seeing the monsters between cities here it seems to be a common thing. The people of my world call the entirety of the planets, stars and galaxies existing within our dimension the "universe." Perhaps that could be a word to define the entirety of all your world's realms?

PS: Your handwriting is very beautiful, I wish I had a pen on me so I could have handwritten my reply too.

Monika-

I won’t say that this isn’t a thought that hasn’t crossed my mind before. Perhaps the writers are quite biased? [ She meant it in jest, but the humor is probably lost in the text. ]

I do miss my home, the island was lovely. I had not been traveling very much through Adrada before being summoned to Vaikuntha, but things were interesting of what I did see. Unfortunate that it seems I won’t be able to travel any more. Compared to Adrada, however, I’m rather surprised to see the abundance of humans among those of us that arrived on the air ship. I’m also surprised to see the number of unfamiliar races among those native to Vaikuntha. I am the only full-blooded elf here that I am aware of; I have only met one other half-elf. Curious, isn’t it? Perhaps another case of bias?

Either way, “universe” is a rather nice name. It sounds all-encompassing.

Re: P.S.: My apologies – I might have picked up any loose pen I could get my hands on in the house before we left. I will keep an extra one on me so I may give you one next time I see you, hopefully before this trip is over.

Ahaha, that does sound like a pretty plausible possibility.

[ And really, it does... Please kill her. ]

Mayhaps you will find a way home. If not, this planet appears to have a lot to offer as well. Though you are correct, I hadn't paid attention to the 'human' bias amongst our numbers. It is even more odd considering this planet doesn't seem to have a higher number of humans than the other species. If anything, I think I have seen more Moogles than Humans thus far.

Perhaps there is a logical explanation for this, but I am afraid this might elude us forever.

PS: Ahaha, no worries. I think I'll get a new pen while in Sparks Golsaucia, my Moogle told me of a shop selling fantasy pens and handbooks.
