Joshua didn't see why he had to only look for one person. Neku could fend for himself, and it wasn't every decade the Composer got some time off. He picked a world at random and decided to go there.

So, in the middle of the Halloween Town Square, right in front of the fountain, Joshua Kiryu appeared. His appearance was different; first off, his wings didn't vanish. In fact, his left wing had turned jet-black. They were a lot smaller than usual, too. Experimentally, he tried to move the wings. His normal, high-Vibe pair appeared through the low-Vibe pair, which seemed to be out of his control. A costume, then. His real wings were still invisible for now.

He turned to the fountain and looked into the water, and was surprised by what he saw. The right side of his face, and in fact his body, had become jet-black. His clothes as well. The left side of his clothing was a brighter white than usual. Closer inspection revealed the darkened ear to be pointed, and that eye a glowing red, with the left being a soothing blue. "Interesting... this world seems to change appearances. I'll have to investigate further." The composer turned and walked around a bit, looking but failing to notice anyone immediately. He stopped next to the guillotine and looked up at it, examining the French execution aid with mild curiosity.

The Galka stepped into a strange dream. A field of stars blanketed by darkness laid out the mage's path. The clothing they found themselves in were strange. In the stead of the pure, white robes that marked the brute's path as one toward purity, it placed them onto a new path, one it could not quite understand. Where the blue embroidery once twisted down along the hood and chest of the robes, now lay as red as blood. The golden threads and buckles were now a fine brass color that looked aged. It was a strange change. Even their Elder's Bragutte and sandals took a strange, greyish hue that made the pale-skinned Galka look as if they were some harbinger of death. The dark shadows under the blue orbs of the mage were much darker, giving their already sinister gaze a petrifying stance.

This world was nothing like he had ever seen. It was constructed with such twisted beauty that it drew, unto their memory, an idle thought of the depths of Beaudeux. The way the gates grew up and twisted brought to mind the metal effigies that stood to act as guardian totems for the old Turtle Beastmen. The ground beneath their feet was solid, not marshy. The putrid air did not affect the surface. Cobblestone streets, a sign of civility and progress. It was a calming sense for the brute. At least this was signal that they would meet someone and not be stuck on an empty world, all alone. That was a scary prospect. Alone, there was no one to save. No one to help.

Swift raised their hand to lift up the hood of their robe a bit, so they would have a better view. Crossing through an old, squeaky gate they would examine the immediate environment. The fountain oozed a lovely green, which made the Galka sneer at it's pleasurable sight. As they continued forward, shuffling steps were only minded by the light clatter of the brass buckles that now hung from its waist. In the distance a figure seemed to be inspecting the local architecture. Swift liked places like this. Though it felt like a grand place, touched by light, the mage felt as if that was out of place in such a strong world. The spirit of a culture must be preserved, even as you bring peace to it.

That is why they felt a great kinship with the Quadav of their country. Being forced from your home, or watching things fall apart and change. It was a pain that gripped the heart and made one fight! They did not wish to see such a beautiful place tainted and removed from its personal glow. When Swift looked up their eyes came upon a mysterious figure. Perhaps a native or a traveler? It did not matter to the mage which it was, as company would be better looked upon to admire such a place. The brute looked up and made sure to pull down their hood. The bearded mage cleared their throat to catch the attention of the one in the distance.

"Hello...?" The soft spoken mage called out to them.

Perhaps preserving the world in it's natural form was better than forcing such drastic changes onto it?

Ysera had been sent to this strange world with the information that her form would change upon entering. At the time, she had no idea what that meant, but after entering the world it was as if the dragon side of her race was creeping over her humanoid side. Her gaze went over her now clawed hands, they were turned black and seemed almost as if they were hardened with dragon scales. With one of her claws, she touched the onyx skin of her face. Her teeth had sharpened and her usual brown eyes were now a fiery orange color that shined through the darkness. Her entire face had turned more jagged and her hood had now a more tattered appearance while the ear-parts of the hood had shrank with needle-like appearance. The cloth that went over her horns had been ripped apart as her two horns had taken on a more sinister appearance as they appear to be jagged. Her hood had now a fiery red color as did her main clothes, which also had a more jagged look. The bands around her middle had turned black and appeared to be made of some sort of mineral, giving it some strange yellow glow at times, shining and fading again. Her large pants now were no longer tucked in her boots and were straightened with a ripped look at the bottom while the yellow color had turned more grim and dark. Her boots were largely gone as only two shredded bands were around her legs, which were invisible under the pipes of her pants. Her feet now had large claws that she needed to use to walk. Her wings had now a black onyx look as well with the single spike now having a more bone-like look and her wings, body, and all skin was covered in dragon scales. Ysera flapped her wings while standing in what could be considered a graveyard. A world of death and horrors, it seemed to her as she took to the skies, seeming to have no problems with her different looking wings. It was almost as if it was still her own wings, well, this does have to be some kind of illusion casted upon us. Just to look different while in this world. The world did seem quite curious to her as she flew through the skies to what appeared to be some sort of town. How the buildings looked like was interesting as well, from the sky, she noticed a fountain with green slime. It seemed to be some sort of plaza or something along those lines as her started to lower herself downward.

"Hello?"
Joshua turned to face the voice that called to him. It seemed that someone else had just arrived. The voice didn't match the appearance at all. Standing in front of him was a man with stature to match Higashizawa's, with deep circles under his eyes and blood-red embroidery tracing along his robes. He looked like some sort of fairy-tale Grim Reaper. None of the real Reapers would look like that. For one thing, there were no wings.

Joshua raised a hand in greeting and walked over towards the towering man. "Hello. Are you from around here? Personally, the Composer doubted it. Something about this man felt like it wasn't from here. Still, it was worth asking. He turned to look around the square again. "Interesting place, that's for sure..." He spotted a winged form gliding down towards them and waved again, beckoning the draconic person to join them. Talking from that far away would necessitate yelling, and Joshua just didn't feel like straining his voice.

[White Mage] [BASTOKAN] | [NEUTRAL] WEAPON --- Blessed Hammer SHIELD ----Holy Shield HOUSE MOG --- Nono "Reaching out, will you accept the help that I could not in the past?"

A hand came to rest on the chest to their cloak. They were not expecting such an extensive conversation. It was sometimes hard for the mage to speak up. Only ever did it find the courage when it concerned the well being of others. There was always that one that felt they needn't the touch of a mage to bless their wounds, that they were ready to face adversity on their own. As much as the brute respected such pride, there were times when it was okay to ask for help. The gave a nod of acknowledgement toward the male. They looked to be Hume, but more so likely one of these humans that lived outside of Vana'diel.

The brute parted their mouth at the question. Snapping shut their mouth the mage shook their head to the negative. At their comment the brute would have to agree. This place was quite intriguing. There was no doubt of these feelings. Even so the brute frowned. It was impossibly bright here. A mage under Altana's hand could easily see the contrast between the Darkness held by Promathia and the Light wielded by Altana. The common man had no place in such light. That was a fate earned through great trials.

The brute turned their head up toward the sky. Something was coming. For one that has traveled through their own world and have met strange and dangerous beasts, caution was no stranger. Left hand gripped against the handle of their shield and their free hand moving to hover in the case they needed to grip their hammer. They could not sense maliciousness from this figure, but sometimes there were those capable of hiding behind masks of untold terror. The mage took a step back and let out a breathe. The black cloak only helped conceal their form in the darkness.

"....Something about this world, makes it too bright." They rumbled in a soft tone, unfitting a beast.

She took another good look at the winged one and the large brute next to him. Doesn't look like a Seeq, but I can't even be sure with the changes this world brings upon a person, she thought to herself while turning back to the winged one that appeared much like an aegyl to her, possibly an aegyl that changed due to the world's mechanics, unless both are citizens of this world. It didn't truly matter to the Gria in the end, Ysera had come here for business, not to discuss races. She wasn't very fond of racism either. In her hand, she held tightly her bow, which had turned pitch-black and seemed to be made of scales as well on this world. She had noted the brute having gone to his weapons, but wasn't certain if that meant he was about to fight her or something else. Ysera simply looked from one to the other, not exactly having heard anything of their conversation so far, but the Gria didn't like to speak all that much. Which was the reason she continued to be silent and kept cautious of anyone else that might appear or any attack that could be launched. Being careful in new area's was a must to her. And this place was strange enough as it is.
