"Hello people who got pulled here. I am Rätsel, Rätsel Feinschmecker. Currently it seems that things are quiet here and as such to pass the time I am offering cooking lessons if anyone is interested. That or if you need a chef. It was one of the things I did back home and perhaps a bit of normality will help figure this place out. If anyone is interested please let me know."

"No, just me. If its the battleship in the park that does explain how it looked. Something like Hiryuu Custom I would suspect."

He ponders and rubs his chin a bit.

"Is there a need for PT units here or is it relatively peaceful?"

She nods. "Similar armaments and amenities. I think it is also based on a civilian exploration ship."

As for her other question, she pulls up some notes to make sure she covers everything. "The 'Thirteenth Hour' that happens here is chaotic due to the presence of aggressive demons, but enemies large enough to be engaged with mobile weapons are rare. Captain Asuno - the other pilot here - and I have been able to deal with the few that crop up, including some that resemble Einst. Likewise, there have been one or two terrorist attacks, but like the 13th Hour demons, they weren't in a position to be engaged with PT units."

"There has been one singular major event with a large monster attacking the city from within, but I didn't manage to sortie Wildraubtier before a team of Persona-users on foot took it down with concentrated attacks," she reported, sending Elzam the little information she'd been able to gather on the Scorpio boss. "In general, 'Personas' seem to be the most effective means of combat here, as they give a great deal of power to people on foot, with little to no needed combat training."

"Hrm, given how we are locked in and people are given these 'Persona' weapons, do you think this may be the final stages of a test of those weapons? Some are given them, others are not and then conflicts are created to see how effective they are in dealing with everything?"

She thinks about this for a long moment, then shakes her head. Then she nods slightly, looking disturbed by the idea.

"Based on information from people who knew about Personas before coming here and my own observations, they're more like an inborn talent people have more or less potential for, like psychic powers," she said. "Given what we've seen in our own world, though, it's possible this place is meant to identify and train that talent for some purpose..."

He nods a bit and lets out a breath.

"As long as its not a testing ground for something like artificial psychodriver potential."

"Not to that extent. If nothing else, it's much too disorganized, there's nothing to suggest external alterations to us, and Personas aren't the same thing, even if they do have combat applications."

She's seen what a proper mad scientific testing ground looks like. This was more like throwing a bunch of people into a scenario and seeing how they reacted.

"So they haven't done any conditioning. Well that's something at least. Unless the local populace is the main test and we are more of a control group. This all just doesn't sit right with me."

Well, if anyone was going to take an untrusting view of the situation, it made sense that it would be Major Elzam. He probably knew more about this kind of thing than she did, anyway.

"If it is some kind of experiment, it's mostly likely on the part of these 'Philemon' and 'Nyarlathotep' entities, ultimately. That seems to be the consensus from the few people who seem to have heard of them before coming here."
