Sixth.

NIGHTMARE.

Riley has been largely absent for the past day; he's needed the time, he's said, to try to sort out what should be done about Darkrai and Cresselia. Whether they can be contacted from a safe distance; whether there's something he can do to ensure that there's no risk to the rest of you.

You fall asleep on Friday night.

You don't remember deciding to fall asleep on Friday night; perhaps you were in the middle of doing something. Perhaps you were keeping watch over the rest of the group, perhaps you were talking to someone, perhaps you were unable to drift off and sitting up poring over notes or books by flashlight. Perhaps you were already well asleep by the time it happens. Either way, Friday night begins to slip into what's technically Saturday, and that's when you drop off.

And you are, quite literally, falling.

The sensation is a strong one, somehing that disorients you almost immediately, the sort of thing that happens in dreams only to be accompanied by a hypnic jerk that wakes you up safely in your bed, only that moment of awakening never comes. The landing isn't a hard one, however, wherever you've ended up; it's one you're aware of, but not one that hurts you in any way, there's no physical pain. There's only you, and the ground, and the absolute darkness surrounding you.

You should get up. Get your bearings. The darkness won't last long, but what it reveals to you when it breaks might not be as welcome as you might think it is...

We do, absolutely. Might we be so forward as to request your aid as we have with your counterpart?

I'm afraid I can't answer with what can specifically be done to help us, just yet.

But we wish to gather what power we can on our side, especially if Cyrus lashes out against us again. We wish to see this world thriving as it should, rather than leave things as he would have them.

The pleasure's ours, certainly. We're truly fortunate you and Darkrai will allow us your assistance.
discutio: (and i'll burn you to the ground)

I hope we can. Those are high expectations, and I'd not wish to disappoint you.
