[The video opens up to show a very worried young woman, long blonde hair framing her face.]

My name is Zelda, Princess Zelda of Hyrule...if anyone can hear this please, I need to return home. I've been told it's not possible but surely there must be some way.

[She worries her lip and tucks a side of her hair behind one pointed ear. There's a pause in her speech as she considers how best to move forward.]

The world I am from is in danger. A great Calamity has befallen my people and our Hero...Please, surely someone out there can help. If you can tell me how to return home, or at the very least if you have an advice on where I can begin looking for answers, I would greatly appreciate it.

Allura...she made a post similar to my own, did she not?

[She looks rather amused at the apology.]

It's all right. You were only making an observation.

[pidgewidgeon]

Yup! That's her! She's the Princess of Altea, so yay multiple princesses?

[inmemoriae]

It's strange to have both of us show up in such a relatively short time. I wonder what other similarities may exist.

Furthermore, does this place have a goal in mind bringing us both here if such similarities exist? Is there any motive at all to bringing any of us here? It seems all too convenient and coincidental, to be honest. As if there weren't enough questions already.

[pidgewidgeon]

Was your planet destroyed?

[ And she's just gonna internally cringe over that one. Too much information Pidge, too much information. ]

If they have any goals in bringing us here, they're pretty unclear. I arrived last month, and everyone kept saying we weren't brought here for any specific purpose, but then these anachronism things showed up and we had to fight them off while they attacked, and how can they say that we have no specific purpose if things like that happen here?

[inmemoriae]

[Okay, ouch.]

N-No. Not yet at least. That is what we are trying to prevent.

[And now she's here, once more unable to help. Fantastic.]

Anachronisms? That is very strange. How long were they here for--and have there been any other such events that you are aware of? Considering the abilities we are granted, or those some of us might have had before arriving here, I would guess that such events are precisely why we are here. We are...a defense if nothing else.

[pidgewidgeon]

Umm... Good luck?

[ She needs to learn to keep her mouth shut. ]

Well, when I arrived there were these mirage things that showed different times in history and by the end of the month actual living? solid? [ whatever. ] soldiers were appearing in groups and attacking. There were even tanks and planes appearing at the end and destroying parts of the city.

I.. wasn't told of anything similar happening before. But admittedly, I didn't ask anyone if that was a typical thing.

[inmemoriae]

So these visions became...solid then? Manifesting into something more threatening than spirits. Interesting. [Excuse her while she ducks out of frame to grab something to take notes on. Scraps of paper would have to do until she found a proper journal.]

Now were these apparitions fought off, or did they merely disappear? Perhaps it has something to do with those porters that bring us here. Or no...that wouldn't make much sense would it? Unless they are putting off some energy that is causing a distortion--that would need further study...

[pidgewidgeon]

We could fight them once they became soldiers. They did all disappear at the same time though.

And that was what I thought too! The porter can bring in anyone from any time, so a glitch might explain anomalies from different time periods showing up all at once, but I couldn't find anything about it. [ Can you hear the frustration in her voice? Stupid fake Earth wouldn't just give up it's secrets. ]
