After taking a moment to compose herself and get the better of the sudden excitement brought on by the realisation that she'd just been transported into her favourite game, Hina stopped to assess the situation. 

Immediately it was obvious that this wasn't just a part of the newest expansion, Emerald Odyssey wasn't a VRMMO and even if it was Hina was pretty sure no modern technology could create this kind of experience, certainly nothing commercially available, which left a number of possibilities open including, magic, aliens, the will of some mad god or some other conspiracy Hina was yet to consider. 

Lifting up one of her cloaks sleeves, Hina watched to red mist begin slowly rising from her arm before quickly pulling the sleeve back down as a wave of lethargy washed over her and noting that while in the game her cloak would have protected her effects of sunlight simply as a result of being equipped it now needed to actually be in the path of the suns rays to take effect. 

The change in this aspect of the game sparked even more questions for Hina as to what else had changed and how. What other changes where there to the way skills and abilities worked? How where  skills even used now? Could a player train and improve independently from the skill system and could they be taught other classes skills? Did the NPCs now behave like people, where they conscious and where they aware or oblivious to their true nature? Had flavour text become literal and for that matter had the lore become literal, from memory there was some pretty epic level stuff in there? Most importantly how much more fun would it be to experience Emerald Odyssey in true first person?!

Even through some of the more worrying questions that came to mind, like those on death & respawning, Hina quickly found herself getting worked up with excitement around her own speculation, coming up with countless ideas and theories she vowed to test as soon as she got the chance. But first there where some more pressing matters, namely other players and securing a means of attending to her basic needs. 

Eyes scanning about the town square Hina's gaze soon locked on to a trembling girl clutching a staff, who from her demeanour and the fact that she looked vaguely familiar, Hina guessed was probably another player she'd seen around some time before. Moving forward to stand in front of the girl Hina paused for a awkwardly long moment thinking of how to introduce herself. 

[color=9e0b0f][i]'Hello, my name is Hina... No... Good Morning, will you be my friend... even worse... maybe as Chisuikoumori... perfect.'[/i][/color]

Finally coming to her decision Hina closed what gap was left between her and the girl with far more confidence than she was normally capable of, striking a pose she deemed befitting of Chisuikoumori's character and silently willing her thaumaturgy spell to go off, which to her relief trigger causing her hood to fly back and her eyes to shine a brilliant red. 

[color=9e0b0f]"Greetings, I am Chisuikoumori, greatest amongst vampires and Blood Knights."[/color]

Hina began to feel her face burning up as she suddenly became aware that interacting with real people in Emerald Odyssey now, was incredibly embarrassing, even while acting as Chisuikoumori. After pulling up her hood up to hide her face and hoping that the blood mist concealed her embarrassment Hina continued on, albeit with a little less confidence than previously. 

[color=9e0b0f]"I'd like to inquire as to whether you current circumstances coincide with m-my own."[/color]

It had become Hina's turn to begin trembling, though she hoped the girl would fail to take notice.
