[He'd heard they had video on the Warp Bands but his old one hadn't had that feature. Maybe it's a good thing this one does.

Martin is in a room in the medical center when he starts it. Which is the problem. He died. He's not supposed to be back in the medical center two months later decidedly not dead and an Enlightened!

But he's back and now he has to adjust to these sharp little claw-nail-things on his fingers on top of everything else. What is his life?

Before Martin gets a chance to say anything, a Budew grabs the band and starts poking at it.]

No, Laterose, not right now.

[The Budew goes out of sight and Martin focuses it back on him with a sigh]

Um. I...I'm not quite sure what to say right now. I'm back? Is that what you say when you die and wake up two months later in the Forest? Is this normal for Enlightened?

[He clearly has more questions but cuts himself off]

Anyway. Could someone catch me up on the last two months?

Entirely possible, although I highly doubt it. I can't imagine he could sense your... [What would you even call it.] Awakening, as it were.

[warriormouse]

Well, he was there when I died. Maybe he knew what to look for. I honestly don't know.

I suppose some mysteries are best left unsolved. In any case, I'm happy to see that you're all right. Confused to be sure, but happy.

[warriormouse]

That, I think, is everyone's reaction--including mine. But I'm glad to be back.

How long will you be staying at the medical center?

Video.

[warriormouse]

At least a week they said, and I won't be allowed to go very far from the city for a while. It wouldn't be safe.

That's unfortunate, but at least you'll be better rested when you do return to work. Do you have anything to keep you busy until then?

[warriormouse]

Paperwork, and I am thinking about taking some time off to travel a little.

Video.

[aerial_ace]

Travel? Where to? Did you have anywhere in mind?

Video.

[warriormouse]

The mountains, definitely, and the ocean. Maybe even Caldera.

You probably shouldn't push yourself too hard. Maybe you should start with the hot springs, I hear they're quite relaxing.
