Somewhere beyond what was known, a voice floated to the ears of someone suspended in the colourful nothingness.

Hello!

Blinking into the sourceless light, that someone searched for the voice, to no avail.

I'm sorry. I'm kind of... non-physical... right now. So are you! Isn't that cool?

The startled nature of the child's response garnered her a light laughter.

You're funny! The voice stopped. You know what? I should be doing my job.

A confused noise, the speaker's sounds nearly lost in the void, which was much less threatening than it sounds.

Well, yeah, I was kind of expecting that. Anyways...

The voice changed to that of a far more confident figure, who was also far less giggly. Well then. Young one, show me. Show me, within your mind, who you are.

A flash, and suddenly the child didn't remember anything. A panicking flustered feeling threw itself into the nothingness, but the voice took steps to soothe.

Don't panic. I had to take your memories to actually look at them... but you'll be fine. You won't need them again for a bit. A slightly mollified sound displayed reluctant acceptance.

Now. This is... interesting. A questioning remark, which probably would have been along the lines of 'what do you mean by that?' if the child had not been stripped of voice and language, being non-physical and all that.

Well. You'll know... eventually. Another flash, and the child fell helplessly into nothingness, as if they had been standing on clouds.
