01 | A Request

Subject: Dreamotion Research Assistance Request

Many of you may already be aware of the ongoing effort to ensure that those who wish to remain in this world may do so. Eustace-san has suggested a logical first step: we need to better understand the nature of the connections between our present selves and our original worlds. While it appears that observing the connection directly is beyond their current instruments, the researchers at the Observatory are hopeful that progressing their understanding of dreamotion could prove helpful.

What we now need are volunteer dreamers who would not object to the study of their dreamwalking and dreamotion. For those willing, if you could reply here or contact myself or Eustace-san, it would be a considerable help. Of course those who have no intention of staying here permanently are also very welcome to assist. I believe learning more about this could be beneficial to all of us.

Finally, the tapirs have suggested that those who no longer exist in their original world may not be tethered to those worlds as tightly. From comparison to the magic of my own world, I believe volunteers with unusual circumstances such as these might be able to provide the researchers with additional clues. Those who have died in their own worlds, who otherwise experienced a separation from their physical bodies, or who may have complex connections as a result of something such as cloning could be particularly helpful. I understand that a number of these subjects may be sensitive. If you don't wish to discuss them in public, you are more than welcome to contact us privately, or to disclose this information only to the researchers themselves.

Thank you all for your time,
Baldr

It's already left a bad first impression.

[But he doesn't want to talk about that, so quickly changing the subject back.]

Is that sort of thing even possible? Not returning back where we came from? It sounds like a pipe dream, if you ask me.

Why not try what you know from your world then if it's so similar? Seems like the easiest approach for this.

[So there's only one person who could do it. Might not be a good idea to put the strain on them.]

Not sure I can offer anything to help. I barely understand anything about dreamotion or dreamwalking besides the crash course we were given.

[It was Eustace, huh? He has more questions, but none that he wants to ask in public like this. He's seen how everyone dog-piled on Zack a while back.]

Must've missed it. Pretty sure I can figure out a way to contact him myself if I decide to help out. Is he the mastermind behind all this?

Thanks for the tip. I'll keep it in mind if I need to contact anyone.

[He and his wife. So Tifa wanted to stay here? That never came up when they spoke. Not that they've really had much time to speak about anything for a while. Hearing that she was married definitely came as a surprise to him and, though he wouldn't admit it aloud, a part of him had been actively avoiding her since.]

Still hard to believe if I'm being honest. That something like that can happen in a dream world.

[Is he talking about the marriage? Or the attempt to stay behind? For now he doesn't elaborate.]

I'm used to things that might be considered magic where I'm from as well. It's just that this seems to be a bigger endeavor than what I'm used to.

Regardless, I can at least lend a hand. Should I keep in contact with you about this or Eustace?

Guess I'll have to brush up on dreamotion until then. Keep me posted.
