LEVIATHAN'S HEART GAME

[Oh]

[I don't like that feeling. Not like those questions aren't a constant loop in his head or anything like that.]

[And the washed out color is....concerning.]

[His head snaps up at the voice and he raises his hands to the side, so they're ckear to see.]

Uuuh, not intruder. I'm Rye. Or Hiccup, but most people know me as Rye where I...just was. Heart?

[ The fog recedes a little revealing that you are surrounded on all sides. Men in white robes with blue trim have arrows trained upon you from the ground and in the trees. None of them lower their weapons, except for the one who spoke. Bow lowering to his side, the man approaches. ]

I recognize you.... yes. You are inside a heart.

[ He lifts a hand up and signals for everyone to lower their own weapons. The others follow suit, and one by one begin to disappear back into the fog. ]

I apologize for the sudden welcome like this, but-- I am afraid the situation is dire right now and we cannot take chances.

[Yeah, that sounds about right. Though Rye seems to keep calm despite his Very Rampant Confusion. Honestly, the weapons being trained on him feels like the least distressing part.]

[...that probably says something.]

No, no, that's fine. Gotta protect what you gotta protect. [He's gonna get up though when the back up starts to vanish.] What do you mean by heart? What's the danger?

It is difficult to explain out here. And right now you aren't safe, either. Not as you are currently. If you will follow me, I can lead you to someone who can explain more.
