[through the magic of time shenanigans It has been several hours since Redglare's arrival. Hours she spent investigating, scourging the brochure from top to bottom for every fragment of information, and even checking up on as much of the network as she reasonably could. She's even created a folder of notes on her personal palmtop dedicated to this strange, underwater prison. She is, above all, a professional after all, and it wouldn't do for a member of Alternia's Cruellest Bar to simply run around like a beheaded cluckbeast.

For now, it is time to change the focus of her investigation. Certainly there is much more to be found from investigating the place itself, but it would be a mistake to ignore the people living in it. And Redglare does not make mistakes. She has questions to ask, answers to discovered, and a network to start up, regardless of how long or short her stay may end up being.

She opts for a friendly approach. Catch more flies with honey, after all.]

Oh no! >:[!!!
I have fallen into an underwater bubble and i can't get out.
Where is the clever white barkbeast to rescue me?
A brave knight to whisk me to safety so i may swoon amounts that could only be described as truly outrageous!

Hahaha, honestly, i know i deserve a vacation for my services to trollkind for apprehending that scoundrel, but this was not what i was expecting.
Would anyone be willing to help a lady out and answer a few questions?

Precisely. There are new arrivals every month. If you do not return to your world yourself, perhaps they will appear.

The majority of arrivals happen at the end of the month, and those arrivals are all confined to the plaza. The majority of those appearing at this time do not remember Vatheon, if they have been here before, but their are acceptions.

At other times, residents disappear for a shorter period of time, experience something in their own world, and return remembering Vatheon. These are not confined to the end of the month.

Arrivals often know others who appear, in my experience, but that is not always the case.

The time varies. Sometimes it is a few days. Others, it can be weeks or months. However, the most common interval is the shortest.

Yes. And sixty minutes are grouped together in an hour. A span of twenty-four hours is known as a day. A month is a period of time comprised of twenty-eight to thirty-one days. A year is twelve months, or 265 days. Ten years are a decade, though that is not quite relevant to our situation in Vatheon, as few foreigners have been here for longer than one or two years.

It helps to be prepared. This place is not often dangerous, but the curses can be unusual in effect.
