So first of all, I want to apologize for my, well, my rather abrupt message the other night. I didn't want to scare anyone, but I ended up doing that anyway. Long story short, while trying to help someone else here, I got stabbed. I'm okay-- [She holds her hands up for emphasis; her right arm appears to be bandaged.] I made it out a lot better than I could have. I managed to deflect it, for the most part.

But that's not why I'm posting. I had a dream that night, and the more I think about it, the more I think it might have been an echo. I can't remember a lot of details about it, but I remember a name: "The Field of Justice." I think I remember seeing others, but no real details about them.

I know, it sounds really hokey, and that's why I didn't want to say anything about it at first. It could have just been the pain medication I'm on, but you never know, right? Has anyone heard about anything like this; a place that champions of legend fight one another, with the same name maybe? Or even something similar? I feel like I'm grabbing at straws...

[Okay, nuts to text, she's going back on video.]

They do? Really? How? Do you remember anything?

[ Sona accepts the video but she doesn't put on one for herself. Her text takes a long moment as she mulls it over. ]

Not really...

But it means something to you. Does it make you think of anything?

It sounds like war.

[She dwells on that for a moment.]

Not exactly.

[...Was there something there? ...No, she wouldn't press it, it was probably nothing.]

More like, I don't know how to describe it. Legendary warriors coming together for some reason. I don't know why. It felt like a lot of them, too.

Based on the title... For justice, I imagine.

[Pause. Duh.]

Yeah, that probably.

I just wonder what sort. And for whom.

That's a very good question. Justice can mean any number of things to someone depending on who they are and what they stand for. So, in that case, it could be like war, each warrior fighting for what they believe is their own personal brand of justice. I get the impression that there were many different kinds of champions there, but like I said, I couldn't tell you anything about any of them. The dream was very stream of conscious-y, and it jumped around a lot. That was only a little part of it, but it was the part I remember the most.

I see...

I don't mean to be pushy, but if you recall more about it, would you mind telling me?

Of course! You're the only other person other than Ez that's gotten any kind of reaction from one of my echos. I'd be crazy if I passed that up.

I'm Luci by the way. It's nice to meet you.

Ez?

My name is Sona. The pleasure is mine.

My boyfriend. We share a lot of memories with each other, although I don't really know how we're connected other than our former selves knowing each other.

Sona? Sona... Why does that sound familiar?

I see. An interesting repetition.

?

I know I've heard that name before. It's pretty unique, so I don't think I'm wrong.

It gets mistaken for Sonia quite often, which is somewhat more common.

No, I don't think it would jump out at me like that if that were the case. This is going to bug me now.

[She cups her chin in her hand, going through a mental list. No one in any of the clubs she's in. The name doesn't ring a bell with anyone on the network that she's seen--so she's probably new, something else she'd ask about later--and it's not anyone from LCHS that she knows...]

Are you a student?

Yes. A senior at Starling.

That's it, that's where I've heard it! I'm a sophomore there.

My underclassman, then.

But upperclassman as far as Numbered things are concerned, if I'm not mistaken. How long have you been on the network?

... A couple of days.

Oh wow, you really are new, then. What do you know so far?

Very little.

Mostly I am just aware of the existence of echoes.

So no one's gone over even the basics? Hmm. It's a bit hard to explain. There's some reading, and that might better to show you first, then I can try to fill in the blanks.

Do you have time? I can forward the FAQ to you.
