I'd like to keep this as efficient as possible, so I don't plan on talking your ear off.

Call me Daan. I'm a doctor. That should about cover all you need to know about me.

So, first question: is there already a clinic arranged by someone here? Have there been any injuries on top of there being a willing killer out there? Illnesses or whatever else. I can probably help you, even a little.

Second question: who has been here since the start of this whole mess of being trapped in a part of this city? Ideally, I'd like someone who can be informative, but I'm not overly picky.

You seem to take the situation rather well.

[He sighs a little. It isn't a great subject, but... well, maybe it's Daan's fault for bringing it up at all.]

It'd do nothing to help anyone to learn about it. But I will say that it was a dimension seemingly constructed or affected by an Old God. It was unpleasant as hell.

Imagine an apartment building and its layout in the real world. In this dimension of this god's, it was more or less structured the same way, but there were many things inside that didn't make sense. It wasn't made of the same material, there were monstrosities, and devices that had no clear purpose.

[ There's a quiet chuckle on the other end. ]

When you've been through as much as I have, you learn to take things in stride.

[ For better or for worse (usually worse). Though that good cheer fades a little at the information that's being relayed, the smile on his face quickly replaced by a frown. ]

Sorry to bring up unpleasant memories though. It certainly sounds unpleasant as hell. I take it you were able to escape eventually? Or were you brought immediately here?

Or you end up a bitter person, but I'll take your word for it.

Oh, we were able to find our way out. Eventually. But we'd end up in that forsaken dimension a few more times. I haven't decided if it's as bad as the rest of that shitty town Prehevil or worse.

...Hmm, maybe a little worse. Prehevil probably wasn't always a complete hellhole. Just mostly.

How are you liking this place compared to the rest? Or is it too soon to say?

[limbical]

This place might as well be a utopia by comparison. I'm not saying I like it or anything, but if you were to compare the pros and cons, it's pretty obvious.

[indwelt]

Let's hope things stay that way for the time being.

[ spooky though their mysterious circumstances are, it's definitely nice to not have to worry about being attacked by strange monsters or needing to worry where their next meal is coming from. ]

But I'm sure I've taken up enough of your time. The job of a doctor is a busy one no matter where you go. I'll be sure to call you if I ever need anything.

[limbical]

It's no problem. But yeah, let me know if you need my help, and I'll see what I can do.

Stay safe out there.
