*Kari twirls one of those pearl-cage necklaces around her finger; the pearl it came with has been replaced by her purple one.*

I remembered something and I don't know if any of you can assist, but I may as well ask. I don't think anyone's had any of my own memories, one or two possibilities aside, but it's good for everyone to keep aware of each other's Echoes. Especially since it tends to give more to others from the same -- group, let's say.

Do any of you remember a sunken castle? Or just an extremely purple castle. I had another memory after that sewer expedition, and this time my castle must not have been underwater, because we had working fountains.

...Unless you can have those underwater somehow. Scientists?

Another thing. Does anybody remember seeing people who weren't really there?

No. Illusions aren't a thing. Neither are ghosts.

Purple castles, though? ... Also not so much.

[lackinginfaith]

I suppose full disclosure's a good idea. I don't know if she was a ghost or not. I know -- I remember she was the queen, she must have been. She was there on my birthday when I was a child, but... not physically. Not really. She looked like a hologram.

I have no idea who decorated the place.

[blastiaobsessieanonymous]

Oh, holograms? Those... Well, they exist. More or less.

[lackinginfaith]

I have no idea what was really happening. Ghost, hologram, illusion... She must have been real, though, because I could see her, too.

[blastiaobsessieanonymous]

Trust me, I wish I knew.

[lackinginfaith]

I hope this doesn't mean some see-through blonde ocean queen was my mother. I don't think I could deal with that.

[blastiaobsessieanonymous]

... Huh.

Extremely purple and belonging to a princess?

Re: text

[mood2wiingiing]

there was definitely at least some purple. especially iinside.
kind of pinkish purple.
ii dont know if a princess lived there or 2omeone else but ii knew them for sure.

[lackinginfaith]

It could be, then. I don't know what happened to it. ...Although that one kid seems to think it was Atlantis or something. I doubt Atlantis had working water features at the bottom of the ocean.

[mood2wiingiing]

lmao yeah that 2eems kind of weird.
not that an underwater castle isnt weird two begin with...

[lackinginfaith]

I didn't think anyone would remember, but based on previous experiences, full disclosure seems like a good idea.

I remember that I was looking for Atlantis at some point, if that gives you any comfort.

[lackinginfaith]

Maybe that gave him the idea.

[wastingtime]

Perhaps. The name 'Safeguard' wouldn't happen to mean anything to you, would it?

[lackinginfaith]

Not as far as I'm aware. But were you running from anyone, like we are now?

[wastingtime]

I don't believe so. I think he was a companion.

[lackinginfaith]

Someone you worked with?

Can't help you on the castles, but you could have a fountain underwater if the "fountain" liquid was much more dense than the water. Same reason water behaves like it does in air; air's a fluid too, just a really thin one.

[lackinginfaith]

So if it were made of something other than water, then?

[soulsborderline]

Right!

Oh, or if the "water" was something lighter. I keep getting memories where I'm submerged in this breathable liquid...

[lackinginfaith]

That sounds uncomfortable.

[soulsborderline]

It smells worse than it feels.

[lackinginfaith]

That's just disgusting.
