Who: The Eccentric, along with anyone he meets.
What: Please see here!
When: MONDAY afternoon/evening.
Where: The central plaza, right where the portal was.
Summary: YOU MAY USE ACTION TAGS SHOULD YOU SO DESIRE. Characters are free to come across this strange little hologram.
Rating: Uhhh idk. Whatever happens. Probably not above PG.

[Where there once was a blue disc that stood as the "Gate" through which Lucetians could pass through, there is now a blue figure that has the appearance of a poor-quality hologram or a ghost. It's a little old man, and he's very eager to talk to anyone that passes by.]

Hello? Hello! Excuse me, could I ask you some questions?

Yes, He! My teacher, the Great! I studied beneath him, you know. He is the best.

And both of you are interested in getting us home?

Yes, of course! The Great is the most benevolent, knowledgeable being to have ever graced this world with his presence! Yes he is the kindest of souls, though I don't think he knows how to express it properly. But who could expect him to? He's such a busy man!

I see. [He seems very enthusiastic about this person, which she takes as a good sign.] Does he have a name? ...And you too, by the way. My name is Estelle, I should have introduced myself sooner.

Oh no, I'm not permitted to say his name. He said to me, "don't call my name, your voice is annoying." But he really was just being humble! Gracious but he's such a wonderful person.

Ah, but it's a pleasure to meet you, little miss Estelle! That's a wonderful name, I do like names with Ls in them.

[...was that really a direct quote. He also dodged her question, but she decides to try again.] It's a pleasure to meet you, too. What can I call you?

Oh my, oh my! Should I think of an alias? Hmmm, I don't particularly care for my real name...

It would make things easier to know what to call you.

Yes yes. My name is quite long though, so it might be best for me to give you a nickname.

What name would I like? Hmmm hm hm hm. Timothy!

Ugh, no. That doesn't suit me at all. What about Sandra?

...Isn't that a woman's name?

Oh curses, is it? I'm so terrible with other world names. Is Gertrude a woman's name too?

Yes, it is.

Ho hum!

Well, in that case I must consult someone with far more knowledge than myself. I simply can't make such an important decision on a whim.

I suppose that's true... Who would you consult?

The Great, of course! He knows everything.

Good luck with that, then. [This man is odd but... she rather likes him. He's grandfatherly. Not that she's ever had a grandfather.]

Well thank you young lady! I'll be sure to get back to you!
