Aigis blinked. She hadn't heard a word in English here. How to explain... "You may not wish to believe me when I tell you this, but I have heard only pure Japanese from both nurses and patients since arriving. I hear you speaking in Japanese even now. But you see, that is because Landel has put in place a translator that encompasses the entire institute. It was disabled for one night since I have been here, but my companions and I were all lucky in that we could communicate without trouble."
That was a mouthful, but it had needed to be explained. He may not believe her. That was his prerogative. But he would soon see, even if he did not wish to, that this place was not likely to be anything like what he knew his life to be like before.
She listened to his story patiently, taking the time to also stuff her face in the process. Once again, her stomach pinched and roiled in protest but she couldn't let it win out over her common sense. A body needed sustenance, just as a machine required a power source. She would not allow herself to fall to Landel's manufactured illness.
"That is..." Aigis shivered, taken over by a sudden chill. She shook it off and tried again. "You must understand, there is no one here who was not taken against their will. My last memory was training with my friends in preparation for the battle that would decide the fate of all mankind."
She gazed down at her glass of water. How her own perceptions had changed.
"When people are brought here from whatever land or situation they were last in, there is no explanation on how they were transported here. There is very little explanation as to why we are here, either."
