Sanguine glared a little at Oliver, not liking being made fun of like that. "Oh sure, let me just pull up my spell menu and silently-- Oh wait, no game menu remember? How was I supposed to know spells even still work?" She looked at him seriously, wondering if he was even realizing what was going on. "Look, you might not read a lot of manga, but our current situation is exactly like one of those - As completely impossible as that might seem. In case you haven't noticed, this isn't the game any more. Npc's couldn't talk and act like that. And the VR device definitely does not have capabilities for conveying warmth. I mean, surely you feel it too right? This place feels a lot more real all of a sudden." She sighed, downing the rest of the ale as Oliver went to grab his sword. Then once he returned she continued. "I don't claim to know what's going on exactly, but it's clearly something serious. And for that matter...you're not using magic in here! The last time you did we had to replace one of the tables and half a dozen chairs. Let's go to the arena instead, at least."

Sanguine led the way, heading towards the exit. The arena was on the floor above them anyway, so it wasn't that far a walk. Though before she could even reach the stairs Daniëlle appeared, having just come from the surface. She quickly bowed before speaking. "Mistress, I have troubling news. It appears your suspicions were correct. The swamp that used to surround your sacred tomb has disappeared. We now appear to be in a small forest, surrounded by plains for at least a few miles." This made the vampiress change her idea immediately. Maybe seeing their situation in with his own eyes would help him understand a little more. "Forget the Arena. We're going outside. Testing anything in here might end up destroying parts of the tomb." "Please allow me to accompany you, my lady." Daniëlle spoke, at which Sanguine only replied with a "Sure, sure." Right now finding out what exactly was going on took priority over the npc's. Though at the very least she felt the need to kind of act as a leader in front of them, just in the impossible case that her suspicions were true.
