Cleo Ritter
5/24 near Recolle University
Good afternoon. For those who don't know me, my name is Cleo Ritter, and I am a rather recent addition to this Retrospec community. I have some questions, to those of you who have received the strange visions after being made a part of this. Specifically, if you're willing, I'd like to hear about those visions. I thought if we collaborate and make a list of what kinds of visions each person receives, we might be able to find a pattern as to who gets what, and perhaps piece together a more complete understanding of what is going on here. Thank you in advance for being willing to share this, and I hope this will prove useful.

Ah, you've only had Retrospec for this month as well? I sympathize. And I agree. Trying to keep to rational theories only makes sense in rational situations. Though, you were attacking water with fire?

Mohammed Hefaz It probably sounded like a good idea in the vision. It wasn't a large amount of water if I thought I could evaporate it.
Mohammed Hefaz Maybe it was an instance of "when all you have a hammer, everything is a nail."
Mohammed Hefaz I was desperate or stupid.

I'll call it 'desperate' if you will.

[she wants to think the best of him okay]

[He thinks it's a mix of both]

Mohammed Hefaz You said you also joined this month? Did you get any visions yet?

That's right. Two. One vision was fighting a monster at the edge of a steel city, with the ocean far below. The details are... fuzzy, however. I cannot recall the exact nature of the monster, past that it had scales. The second involved training with swords with an elderly man who was the grandfather of whoever the vision belonged to.

Mohammed Hefaz So we both received something that came straight out of a fantasy novel.
Mohammed Hefaz Yours sounds like an actual rather than some terrible comic.
Mohammed Hefaz Are superpowers a regular theme here?

Cleo Ritter I have no idea.
Cleo Ritter But it seems so.
Cleo Ritter The person the visions belonged to used lightning in her claws as well.

Mohammed Hefaz Fire, Water, Lightning. If we ask around, we might hear about other kinds of elemental magic.
Mohammed Hefaz We might be seeing different sides of the same overall vision.

Cleo Ritter I have been thinking the same thing.
Cleo Ritter But I feel as though I would have heard by now if any visions had been similar to mine past the magic.
Cleo Ritter A city floating in the sky, made entirely of steel...
Cleo Ritter Whatever it was, it was not of Earth.

Mohammed Hefaz If you were in the sky, could you see what the Earth looked like?
Mohammed Hefaz I don't remember looking for a city in the sky in my memories, but that doesn't mean they didn't coexist.

Cleo Ritter There was none that I could see.
Cleo Ritter Just the ocean, with strange streams of green light.
Cleo Ritter I didn't get a clear look since the vision's owner was focused on the monster.

Mohammed Hefaz Green light.
Mohammed Hefaz There has to be someone who had visions of that.
Mohammed Hefaz Or any other fantasy monster.

Cleo Ritter And the person the visions belonged to was not human.
Cleo Ritter Which should make it much more distinct, but I have heard nothing of similar visions.

Mohammed Hefaz ...I don't want to say aliens.

Cleo Ritter There were humans.
Cleo Ritter The vision's owner had a human grandfather, apparently.
Cleo Ritter But she herself had a tail, fur, and claws.
Cleo Ritter And a sword.

Mohammed Hefaz So this fantasy world has everything.
Mohammed Hefaz Superpowers, elementals, fantastic races, flying cities, and monsters.
Mohammed Hefaz And maneating crocodiles according to Dave.

Cleo Ritter If, indeed, they are from the same world.
Cleo Ritter Dave again?

Mohammed Hefaz Dave Strider. You'd have to ask him about the details.
Mohammed Hefaz What have you heard from other people?

Cleo Ritter I hear the name from Officer Togusa sometimes, but I have never met him.
Cleo Ritter At least one person saw space.
Cleo Ritter And another zombies.
Cleo Ritter Still another saw an armored figure and magic.
Cleo Ritter Nothing that seems consistent.

Mohammed Hefaz Inconsistent apart from sounding like fiction
Mohammed Hefaz Are we getting visions of stories?

Cleo Ritter Actually... That sounds probable.
Cleo Ritter More than anything else so far, anyway.
