[Whoever is in the center of town at the moment might experience a blue speedbump on the ground. The little starfish communicator pops open next to him and the feed opens to the side of Jade's head as he grumbles and lets out an irritated groan. Staring up at the.... sky(?) Jade sat up and gave a look around to his surroundings, then to the little item on the ground next to him.

Frowning, he shook out his soaked hands, understandably confused as to why he was soaked from head to toe. Tataroo was entirely dry save for the river and he hadn't fallen into that. However, the bigger concern was where he was. This didn't look remotely close to anything he knew, which was saying a lot for a man who'd traveled the world. He certainly didn't like the looks of that sky or that... coral in the center of town. After a minute, he stood, ignoring the little device that had been next to him and tried patting himself a bit dryer as he examined his immediate surroundings for foes.]

How peculiar. Is it possible I was brought here, or am I dreaming...?

General Alister Azimuth.

Former Four Bolt Magistrate of the Lombax Praetorian Guard and elder Councilman for the Center of Advanced Lombax Research.

Ah, another soldier; Comforting.

[Sincere as he could be with that. It was nice to know there were other level-headed people about.]

A former soldier, but yes. The Guard is... disbanded, back where I'm from.

So I spent my days on Torren IV, instead.

Ah. [A light, two-fingered salute.]

Colonel Jade Curtiss, Commander of the Third Division Malkuth Imperial Forces.

[Instinctively, Alister stiffens at the salute, Omniwrench firmly planted in his hand and back straight as he regards the other.]

Colonel.

--or do you prefer Commander?

Colonel is just fine. At ease.

--sorry. It's been a long time since I've been in a formal presence.

Don't worry about it.

[Jade smirked and nodded at him.]

You said you've only been here a day?

[Alister nods, strictly business.]

I should have been killed in my home universe, but shortly after the blast, I find myself floating in an ocean instead. That, and to find out someone else of my world had been here longer, when I'd seen him just minutes prior.

Odd. Mine was particularly less violent. You were brought back from the dead, then..?

[First he'd learned of Luke and Ion, and now another..? Who else could be brought back..?]

Apparently so. Either it's pure dumb luck, or something just doesn't want me to find peace.

Either or, at least you have a second shot for now. What to do with it.. Well..

[He looked around, a cautious expression on his face.]

I'm unsure what this place is.

What I plan to do is make amends with my fellow Lombax. After that... I'll see where it goes from there.

A noble goal. So long as the other is willing.

That much is up to him.

Of course.

[Not his business.]

However, I'm not sure as to what to do next. I'm unfamiliar with the area.

The blind leading the blind, I'm afraid. But I'll be sure to draw up a few maps once things are situated more.

Alright, that'd be most helpful.

...notify me when you get more situated, Colonel. I can set up a pot of tea.

[Jade blinked, apparently not expecting that. But he smirked and nodded lightly.]

Much appreciated.
