The Fifth Trial

Who: ALL
When: Day 11, noon
Where: Outer Space

Come hither, Heroes. Prove thy worth.

[ That familiar silence befalls everything following the call, and just like before the third trial there’s a glittering void, points of light twinkling in the air. As you step into the space it expands, seeming to consume you, the Aurora, and all that exists in general. There’s a feeling of vertigo as this happens, frozen lights swirling all about you and once again it's all accompanied by obnoxious giggling.

This time, however, when the darkness fades, you're...

Back inside of the Aurora? No, this is actually an entirely different train. Outside the windows, you can only see wispy, dancing lights illuminating the surroundings, which you can't quite make out. The doors outside don't open. ]

....I don't know.

But you're judging me for not having a name. . .

I have a name, regardless of knowing its meaning. At least I can be called by it. "Hey you" is not something to go by.

Hmmm.

Well, your name doesn't help me much at all in thinking of a name for myself, so I'll have to think on it for a little longer. In the meantime, though - you're pretty funny. Do you want to hang out, sometime?

....I'm.... Funny?

Oh! Not in an insulting way, but it's endearing? I don't think I've ever had anyone be so stern about this with me before.

Then again, I don't remember anything, so maybe I have! Either way, though it is funny.

....Is this funny....? Rather, shouldn't someone have insisted on you having a name already?

Hmm, maybe charming is a better way of putting it?

Yes, let's call it that. You're charming.

[I'm what?????????]

--Pardon?

[ laughs, voice clear and bright ]

Charming! You don't think so?

--What exactly are you trying to pull?

[He's so embarrassed he could die.]

Uhmmm. . . .

Frrrriendship. . . ?

Does that count as "trying to pull" something?

[.......................]

I see. Very well. But I do need something to call you. Friendship means little if I can only refer to you as "that nameless guy"
