[Those passing through the plaza today might find themselves noticing something rather... odd placed near the fountain.

Apparently, someone - presumably the Malnosso - has decided to place a treasure chest next to the fountain. And not just any: this particular treasure chest seems to be large enough that it could hold quite the large amount of treasure. In fact, it's big enough that it wouldn't be hard for an adult to hide in there.

Those who decide to investigate the chest might notice something a little peculiar about it, however. Not only does it seem to lack a lock, but if one listens closely while near it, they might just be able to pick up the faint sound of breathing coming from inside the chest, as if whatever were in there is, in fact, alive... and likely asleep, judging from how slow the breathing is.

Maybe someone should investigate? Of course, whatever or whoever is within the chest could be dangerous, so perhaps it'd be best to tread with caution if one decides to check just what is contained in it.]

[ooc: Nu herself is not currently affected by the event, but since treasure does tend to appear in some tales, feel free to play around with that, if you'd like!]

...No. [At this point, she'd be surprised if anyone actually used that entire designation when referring to her. "Nu" is what people have called her for pretty much her entire stay here in Luceti, so... she doesn't really mind being called just that.]

Very well, then. Nice to meet you, Nu.

_{[He's still curious as to how she ended up in that chest, but there are more important questions to be had.]} So you're...some manner of machine?

[Cyborg would probably be closer. Or "clone genetically engineered into a weapon".]

Nu is... an Anti-Sankishin core unit. [Or... that. Either way, not quite human, but not quite a machine, either.]

_{[Oh god, anything involving weapons is totally up his alley.]}

What does Anti-Sankishin mean?

[For a moment, that question earns Yeager little more than a blank look, but it's soon followed by a proper response... sort of, anyway.]

Error... The requested information is classified. [Though it might not be too hard to guess what that means. Anti-Sankishin... something against whatever a Sankishin may be, more likely than not.]

Oh. _{[He doesn't foresee any success in pressing that subject directly, so he switches to something more roundabout.]} Are you part of the military in your world?

[She falls quiet briefly, as if processing his question, but it doesn't take long for her to respond.]

...Error... The requested information is classified. [Although that might as well be a "yes". After all, if she didn't have something to do with the military - or the NOL, rather - then that information likely wouldn't be classified.]

_{[Yeah, he'll take that as a yes. Which pretty much satisfies him on that front, and makes a number of other aspects of this situation even more interesting.]}

Do you know why you were in that chest? That certainly wasn't very kind of the Malnosso, if they put you there.
