Open Symbols and Signs

"we are trying to figure out the same thing," Nikolai said to the man walking down the stairs,"come over join in our confusion,"
 
Xavia glanced at Lars.

"Beats me. We all woke up here in some bizarro world." she said.

She stayed silent. She wasn't going to ask any questions.

This day sucks so far...
 
"hmm that girl is a quite one," Nikolai thinks,"wonder if she is hiding anything, well whatever all will be revealed in due time, I just hope my comrades are holding off against those relentless foes." Nikolai stares at the sign but it is no language he is familiar with, then again he only writes and reads russian.
 
Indigo began to ignore everyone eldest questions and decided to get on with his own. He was never going to get anywhere with everyone else talking like that.

"I was wondering if there was someone I could talk to about strange symbols and phenomena in this town." He stated sullenly.

He had thought this through beforehand. If he could get some information on the subject, he could find out how it happened and in the end, why. There were several ideas in his mind. Swapped dimensions somehow, died and this is where he was brought. The symbol put him in some sort of cryogenic sleep... There were many theories.

But Indigo was looking for fact.
 
She looked at the ones with the milk bone dryly, not looking impressed in the least. She turns from them and looked at the only person not insulting her with a cookie in the shape of a bone. "Strange things? That would be the old Owl...he's usually at the clock tower but he tends to disappear from time to time on little quests...but if you have something of the strange nature to talk about, he's the best one to talk too."

She then shrugs and picks up her quill again, writing on a scrap of paper. "If he isn't there, the old hound will be there to watch over things. He'll likely help you in locating the Owl. Now, if you could do me a favour and tell those people over there to please grab a clue before they piss off the wrong person, that would be great."
 
(whoa, I... haven't been here in a while. I'll try to post more from now on!)
Tasha woke up again after a while. Wait, again? Wasn't she... Oh. She must have fell asleep again, after just sitting there. Yeah, that must be it. This time, she found her glasses beside her bed... so they were here after all. She was probably just too tired to notice the last time... Her glasses were a bit foggy and dirty, so she wiped them on her shirt before putting them on. She just wanted to get out of this place now, something about it gave her the creeps. So, she went out of the room, and went down the stairs, and at the bottom of the stairs, she saw some of the people she had seen earlier standing there in a group.
"Oh... hi there" she said. "Just... what is going on here? What the hell is happening?"
 
Indigo quickly accepted the piece of paper and looked back up to the clerk.

"Thank you," He said quietly.

Indigo pushed through the crowd of people in at the desk and walked towards the door. He had found his first lead into how they got there. After finding how, the only thing left would be why. Without a second thought, Indigo pushed open the doors and walked outside. To be honest, he was a little excited to see what the town looked like.
 
Nikolai walked through the door," hey sir may I please travel with you, I really need to get back to where I was and you have the only lead, plus I figure we should stick together for safety and because we were obviously brought here together for a reason."
 
Ryan sidled over to the desk, being later than most of the other strange people. He pretended like he knew what everyone meant, though that was probably uneeded. Most of these people seemed as clueless as he was. The dog and bunny people were enough to convince him he'd wake up soon.

An owl, eh? Well, isn't that just precious.
 
A little unsatisfied by having his questions ignored, Trevor followed Indigo out the door towards the city which he had not seen.

"Hey, Indigo! Wait up," the boy yelled when opening the door. "So wha-" He was cut off when the drunk inquired Indigo about traveling together. This disheartened Trevor a little, considering the fact that he didn't want to travel with an alcoholic.

Trevor gazed around the city. He wanted to know more about this wise owl.
 
Nikolai looked at the boy that was calling to the man the way he stopes when he also called showed the boy didn't like him,"fine I see no one likes me fine, I guess I will go get drunk and get hit with something heavy." With that Nikolai threw out the empty bottle and another full one, took one look at the other two, hung his head and slowly slinked off to the city.
 
Indigo blinked several times as the Russian man left his side. He felt a little disheartened because of this, but he was still determined to not show any emotion. He turned to Trevor, who was already at his side. It was funny. He actually enjoyed one of the many who appeared here's company.

"Let's find the Clock Tower." He said in a monotone.

His attention turned to the city in front of him, where he looked up at the skyline, hoping to see said tower. He saw one in particular and started walking in that direction, not worrying about Trevor falling behind.
 
"wow neither of them care, but I have to find out the truth," Nikolai said," spetsnaz don't fail me now," with that he starts to tail them, knowing from his training to stay back but not too far back.
 
Javi started running toward the Clock Tower, not caring for those behind him. When he arrived, he shouted upward. "Oh Mr. Owwwwwwwwl, where are you?" He stood still waiting for a response.
 
Xavia ran after them. She put up her hood and tied the drawstring so it wouldn't fall off.

"I guess I have to face it that this is probably real." she muttered, "They better no9t annoy me."
 
Lars's interest was piqued by this clock tower as well. He sort of wanted to travel with Indigo, who seemed like an intelligent person, but he was feeling a little shy and simply began to walk in that direction, trying to take in all of the sights of the city as well--he couldn't neglect any new information.
 
Indigo finally made it to the clock tower. He was very much aware that there were several others going the same direction he was going, but that seemed kind of obvious due to the situation. Nevertheless, he walked over to the door and pushed it open.

"Hello? Is there anyone here?" He called out. He stood still, waiting for a response.
 
"wow looks like everyone made I here," nikolai said walking toward the group that was forming under the clock tower,"well shall we knock mabye he is away and that other person that the recepanist said was here can tell us where he went."
 
The door swings open, a tall man that looked like a cross of a Siberian Husky and a Wolf glaring down at them with sharp blue eyes. On his hip is a flask made of silver and a sheathed blade. He studies the group before him before stepping aside, motioning them to go inside the building with a head nod and a soft growl.

You can tell that he doesn't seem to like people that randomly show up at the tower.
 
Understanding the wolf's command, Indigo motioned to everyone that was standing behind him to follow him inside. He was a little disappointed to have not seen the owl, but someone being there was better than no one. He quietly walked inside the tower and found a wall to lean against. He still had to decide what questions to ask first. Either way, he was going to have to go farther than expected to get his information.
