A start, at least. If there is anything at all to be gleaned from this place and the others gathered here, it is better than what we all began with-- whether it is an escape route or no.
Unfortunately it's not very much that's in our favor...
It seems like a number of abilities have disappeared - in particular those magical in nature, along with weapons that are normally carried around. Not to mention everyone here comes from entirely different worlds and time periods both.
So we're dealing with a force that's very powerful, and wants us to be unarmed.
Troubling, to think all of our inherent abilities could be stifled so, and that we all could have been gathered from afar. It speaks to no small amount of power, though I hope those who sent that message do not wield it.
Not all. There are those born without the innate ability, who must turn instead to other means to advance and defend themselves from such nations that do wield it. But whether they may access it or not during their lives, all return to the aether.

Both that and the apparent lack of any true progress to be made. For the time being, it seems proactivity serves all of us poorly enough.

So have you been bored since we arrived?

no subject
[and he cannot tell if this man actually enjoys doing so]
no subject
[the overly agreeable thing, yet again.]
And has it led you to anything of use, or simply lent itself to remaining occupied?
no subject
[he admits that easily]
I've had one theory solidified, though nothing actually of use for actual action plans to our escape I'm afraid.

[what a nice way to phrase it]
May I ask what abilities you're missing?
no subject
['a little scattered' may be an understatement...]
But it seems something here is able to dampen magic.
no subject
[they're probably incompetent but he'll be nice about it for now,]
Ah, more magic... I'm surprised by how many worlds have it.
no subject
[there's a little more noticeable curiosity, there.]
no subject
I suppose... there is some magic, rare as it is, that is almost a marriage to mythology, in my world.
no subject
[a considering hum, there.]
Then it is certain to be far removed from mine. It is part of the very world-- of life itself.
