[ For a brief moment after the camera flickers on, Circe appears uncertain, and then her expression at once resolves into a calm, unstirred facade, cool as a plane of water. She has unglamorous auburn hair set back in a tousled braid, eyes of an odd, subtly gold sheen, and a plain, even voice. ]

Well. I do not know whether it is for the better that most of the plants and animals and the like are familiar to me here. It would surely be a better preoccupation than what I was assigned, to acquaint myself with the local wildlife, so perhaps I will do it nonetheless. It has been made clear to me that there is an almost impossibly large amount of land to be seen.

Given I am unfamiliar with travel and with this country, I thought I would seek suggestions. In particular... [ a short pause ] I find I miss the sea. I had heard of deserts, but they are not so lovely a place to live as they are to hear tales of. And the same can be said of cities of men.

[ That is it. She says nothing about the confusion, the mingled hope and fear, that all this freedom and newness has set about in her. She is quite possibly the only divine being here. It is impossible to tell. Is that her father, keeping eye on her in the sky? If it is, she doubts he is about to say hello. In some respects she is as alone as she ever was.

In others... There are more people, more mortals, and more land than she has ever given thought to in her long life. It is thrilling and terrifying at the same time, and Circe dares to betray as little of it as she can manage. ]

You can't leave? [ kaneki looks back at the woman, curiously. He isn't the best at greek mythology, but he has read some of it and has learned some of it.

Kaneki turns back to the water boiling before he decides to ask: ]


Were you exiled?

A little bit. To most of us, it's just mythology, though- [ and that's why kaneki heard of it, in this world they were brought in by Lachesis and they are going to be killed by Atropos. it's important to learn a bit about that sort of people. ]

To be honest, there is a lot I don't know, I simply have heard of your name before. [ he smiles a little, finally turning to the woman with the tea now setting. A small flower will blossom in the hot water and taint it with a light color ] here you go-
