[Eley has been thinking lately, and these thoughts have culminated into more questions. Not the usual questions about the hows and whys of humanity however, but something a little more specific... and personal.

It was not unknown to him that there was a likely chance he would forget everything that had happened in Luceti should he return home. There was another side to this though that had occurred to him as he stayed by his tree and mulled over the various trinkets people had offered him as gifts over the years.]

I wonder... although memories are fleeting here, is it also reasonable to assume that there is no way of taking the possessions you have gained here back to your own world? If it were possible, I wonder if I would be the only one enamoured with the chance to bring something important... useful, back home. What would you wish to take if given the opportunity? Presents? Things tied with memories? Or... something that may save the life of another? Luceti is a culmination of many worlds after all. The possibilities...

[His words trail off into silence.]

[Action]

[In contrast to his thoughtful reflections, Eley decides to take a trip to the beach later in the day. Anyone in the area will notice a large six-winged white dragon apparently digging in the sand and sweeping it into a pile with his tail. When he gets far enough in his little project, it seems he's just made a large mound for some reason, but there's a point to all of this! Only... now he seems to have gotten stuck. He sits down, staring at his hill of sand as he tries to work out what his next move should be...

...maybe you should go and see what the problem is?]

If there was something I would bring back from here, it would be a way to get Voyager back home.

[Voice]

[winds_voice]

Voyager? Is that a person? Are they lost?

[It made sense, considering she was trying to get it 'back home'.]

[Voice]

[snapturtle]

Voyager is our ship. There's about 150 of us, and yes... we're lost.

[Voice]

[winds_voice]

A ship... I admit that such vessels are something that Thalassa would have more knowledge of than myself. I believe that sailors use the stars to navigate though, yes? Will this not help you?

[Action]

[beastofthesea]

[Eley's digging does get the attention of someone. Another creature not too dissimilar from the dragon himself.

There is a few moments of splashing, turbulent water before a large white dragon-like creature emerges from the ocean and comes up onto the beach.]

May I ask what you are doing?

[Action]

[winds_voice]

[The movement in the water naturally catches Eley's attention too and he watches as the turbulence within seems to grow... revealing a large white creature. Eley didn't make many trips to the beach, so it wasn't all that surprising that he had never realised something like this was living in the ocean out here.

He takes a moment to answer, still rather stunned that this... being had suddenly appeared to see what he was doing. It seems that they spoke in similar ways too.]

I was attempting to build something called a 'sand castle'. I had read that it was something humans enjoy creating and... I thought a replica of a building from home may prove comforting.

[Action]

[beastofthesea]

[He certainly hadn't meant to startle Eley, but Lugia is a friendly looking creature. And he looks over at the mound of sand as he explains what he's doing.]

I have seen humans doing this, yes. But... this does not look like a castle.

[action]

[folklorist]

[ Helios is out by the beach today taking the dragons out on a walk and also just to soak up the sun. The floating ruins in the distance make him curious too, but he has yet to go there and explore. He'll notice the dragon digging through the sand and he'll let Luminair down to go greet Eleytheria. Both Maggir and Luminair will chirp happily to notify Eley of their presence. ]

Eleytheria?

[action]

[winds_voice]

[Eley hears the chirps before he hears Helios' voice and turns his head to see the two dragons and his friend approaching. He presses his nose to the dragons in greeting, before looking to Helios.]

Helios, I had not expected to see you out here.

[He offers a small smile as he looks at Luminair and Maggar, curious.]

Perhaps you would like to assist me in something. I am attempting to build something called a 'sand castle'.

[action]

[folklorist]

I was taking the dragons out for a walk! I haven't brought them to the beach in awhile so I thought it'd be a nice change of pace.

[ Luminair is at least happy about the sand. Maggir though...all that fur and sand is a bit troublesome. Helios will look at the mound with a curious eye. ]

Ah! A sand castle, really? [ He can't help but laugh a little. The whole picture was just a bit too amusing not to. ] I can definitely help with that. I've made sand mythologies before. A sand castle shouldn't be too hard.

[Action]

[spohkh]

[Spock had heard Eley's video earlier that day, and decided not to answer. He wasn't the type of guy to just talk about this kind of emotional stuff.
But he knew exactly what he would take with him.

Walking, the Vulcan found himself down by the beach, and quirked an eyebrow at the big white dragon.]

Mister Eleytheria?

[Action]

[winds_voice]

[Had Eley been aware of it, he might have questioned him further. He had his own ideas in mind of course, but perhaps that was a subject for another time.

At the moment, the Spirit was greeting his friend at his place on the beach, turning his head to speak with him.]

Spock? It is good to see you again. Perhaps you would like to help me with something. I am trying to build a castle from sand... however, I am unsure of the best way to approach it.

Re: [Action]

[spohkh]

[Spock continues to admire Eley's dragon form...]

That may be a difficult feat considering your current size.

[savedtheworld]

[It's summer, so Aang makes trips up to the beach fairly regularly. Today, he spots a very familiar dragon and is quickly concerned. He glides down to a landing nearby and approaches Eleytheria from the front.]

Eleytheria! Are you alright?

[Action]

[winds_voice]

[The dragon watches as Aang descends, noting the look of concern on his face as he comes closer. He greets him with a smile though, trying to put him at ease. This wasn't a problem that would harm him, simply... an activity for fun.]

I am well, Aang. Tell me, what do you know of 'sand castles'?

[Action]

[savedtheworld]

[Aang's face quickly brightens up as he hears this.]

I know that they're one of the most fun things ever! You can make all kinds of neat castles out of just sand, and it's really really really fun!

[ELEY YOU ARE SPECIAL SO YOU GET AUDIO WOW!!! :D ]

...I have no possessions here that I wish to take with me. ...However, I would...like to keep my memories. [Sounding a little awkward, there, Mewtwo. But it's true, he doesn't want to forget the things he's learned, or (some of) the people he's met.]

[audio]

[winds_voice]

[D'AWW HE FEELS SPECIAL <3

And hey that is a familiar voice. And... a viable answer. Despite Mewtwo's hesitation, Eley can definitely understand where he's coming from.]

I am sure that is a sentiment shared by many in Luceti. I too have learned much from living here... I have come closer to understanding humans and have experienced things I would never think to try in Aether. And... of course, I do not want to forget the friends I have made.

[audio]

[readytobe]

[v special eley <3333 ]

Nor do I. [About the friend thing. He is talking about you. Just FTR.]

...Although I am not certain that I understand humans any more than I did before. [He's not sure if he wants to, either. :|b....humans....]

[Voice]

[theideaguy]

Y'know, I don't really see all that much point in thinking too deeply about that question. Having been back, I don't think I was allowed to bring anything with me. Even my memories of this place. I'd like to think I'd have remembered anything like that before being sent back here.

[He shrugs, though that's not really visible here.]

All in all, it's no sense thinking about what it'd be elsewise unless that somehow changes.

[Sokka is always the pragmatist.]

[Voice]

[winds_voice]

[Well he certainly can't say Sokka is wrong in that regard, though Eley can't help but feel a little disheartened by the cold, hard truth.]

I suppose you are right... but it is rather more difficult to discount such a question when much is at stake at home. Perhaps it is not possible to transfer objects between worlds, but if there was even the slightest chance to change that rule, I would do so. Would you not?

[Voice]

[theideaguy]

Well, if we have to delude ourselves into believing the hypothetical...

[Sokka pauses for a moment, giving it a serious thought.]

Honestly, I haven't really gotten anything here yet that I have to take home. I don't even any real momentos yet. Granted, it might be nice to take some of the skills I've learned here home, but... who knows if even half of that stuff would work.

[Voice]

[knightofratatosk]

[Strangely enough, this is something Emil hasn't really given much thought to before, in part because he's been here for so long that Luceti feels more like home than his own world does.

But it's a good question, and one he doesn't have to spend long pondering before he answers.]

I'd like to take the gifts that my friends here have given me back home with me. Even if I end up not remembering them or our friendship, I'd still have that proof that we were friends.

[Voice]

[winds_voice]

You make a good point. Perhaps if we could bring back mementos we would stand a chance at sparking our memories of staying here... I would like to believe that it could be possible.

[He sighs. Not that it mattered considering that it seemed like nothing could pass between the worlds.]

I am not usually this sentimental. In a way, it is probably better that I do not remember. It would only interfere.

[Voice]

[knightofratatosk]

Interfere with what?

[Emil is curious now, because this sounds like it could possibly be a similar situation to his own.]

Do you have something that you need to do back in your world?
