ITP: Fight or flight

[maybe_a_king]

[She's been nervous lately, an ice-cold feeling in the pit of her stomach that had started shortly before her uncle's arrival. It reminds her, vaguely, of when the Blood Fort had gone up around the school and she, Rin, and their Servants had been frantic to bring it down to save the students. Arturia had never before felt such fear, had never felt such urgency as far as she could remember, and it's the same as now. It's as if she can tell something dangerous is coming, something that could lay waste to everyone here and it will be a battle that not even the mightiest among them could hope to come out of alive.

Her only instinct is to fight, but she has nothing to fight. Not yet. There's only so many demons she can fight at night and with her uncle here she has to be more careful to keep him from worrying. Nonetheless, she needs to do something to combat this strange feeling and there's only one thing she can think of:]

I find I have neglected my training since arriving here. Tell me, would anyone like to spar with me in the Capricorn Ward? I would prefer a fellow swordsman, but any others willing would do.

Well, one of them was really nice; It was a city under the water. It was pretty peaceful but...well, there were times when things would go crazy, there were some attacks, but it was nice other than that.

The second place...I suppose it was a lot like a normal big city, except it was darker. There was more evil there. More violence.

But then I came here.

So this isn't the only place people can be drawn to?

[This is actually a bit disturbing to her, but it doesn't show on her face. People get pulled into other worlds all the time? What would Rin say if she found out?]

No. I thought it was just that first place that could do it...but, well, I was wrong. Who knows how many other places there are.

Guess it could be seen as disparaging or exciting, depending on how you look at it.

It's nice to know this is not an isolated phenomenon, at least? Hopefully you won't be taken from us too soon to yet another land.

Yeah, though it means people you meet you might not ever see again if you leave or they do. Of course, maybe that makes them that much more special than before.

To be honest, I hope not as well. I'm a traveler by nature, but even I'm a bit tired.
