Natsuki: (startled) "Whoa, where did you come from? And what's with all the sword throwing?" ???: "I just wanted to make sure you weren't some enemy. You never know who you might encounter here in Alrest." Natsuki: "Alrest? Is that what this place is called?" ???: "Yes, it is. Welcome to the world of Alrest, where titanic creatures known as Titans roam the cloud sea." Natsuki: "Titans? That's what this giraffe-like thing is? It's massive!" ???: "Yes, that's right. This particular Titan is called Azurda. He's quite friendly, so you don't have to worry." Natsuki: (still taking in the surroundings) "This is so surreal... One minute I'm falling from the sky, and the next, I'm in a whole new world." ???: "Well, you're not the first person to find themselves in Alrest unexpectedly. Many have been brought here from different dimensions. It seems you're just the latest arrival." Natsuki: "Great, so how do I get back to where I came from?" ???: "That's a bit tricky. There's usually a way to return, but it requires finding specific artifacts or fulfilling certain conditions. It won't be easy." Natsuki: "Of course it won't be easy... Why would it ever be easy?" ???: "I understand your frustration, but if you want to find your way back, you'll have to take on the challenges that lie ahead. It won't be all bad though. Alrest is a world brimming with wonders and adventures." Natsuki: (rolling her eyes) "Yeah, right. I guess I don't have much choice then. Lead the way, fiery sword thrower. But don't think I'm going to forget about that near-death experience." ???: (smirking) "I wouldn't expect anything less from you. Let's begin our journey across Alrest then, shall we?"
