Dindy: Wow, I can't remember the time I last added like this.
Priest Mahado: That must be because you still use your fingers.

Chapter 14: Technically Kidnapped
There was a bunch of stairs and ladders to the ground, but I made it without anyone noticing me. I originally just wanted to get outside to escape the pain for a little while, but curiosity took my by the hand as soon as it did. The world had changed so much since my family had last seen the sky that it was breath-taking.
Before I knew it I had run off somewhere and was lost. "Hello?" I called out, but I knew that my language was foreign to this land that wasn't Egypt. I walked off to try and see if I could find where I was, but to no avail. After some time I found a 'park,' and went inside. It was very dark outside, but I was use to that sort of thing and quickly adjusted to the lack of light.
"Look brother, it's a little girl all by herself in the park. How odd!"
"How odd, indeed brother,"
I couldn't understand a word they said at the time, but I knew that they were talking about me somehow.
"Should we see if she's lost?" A slightly deep male voice.
"Brother, she is lost. It's very obvious," A higher pitched voice.
"Well, maybe her mother's nearby?"
"Certainly not, mothers don't take their children out at this time of night"
"Stop disproving me, brother! I'm trying to think positive,"
"Well it's annoying me,"
"Hmph," The one with a lower pitch certainly didn't seem happy with his brother, but with that he stopped talking.
After some time they approached me.
"Hello child," The higher voice said. "I'm Para Meikyu, and this is my brother Dox," He gestured from himself to the other person. 'Para'—as I took his gesture as an introduction—was wearing black and orange, was bald and had dark grey-green eyes. 'Dox' looked almost just like his brother—almost as in he was dressed differently—and wore black and green instead of orange.
"Hello," I greeted in Arabic (a futuristic language taught to me by an adopted sibling) and gestured to myself after giving a short wave. "I'm Megan Ishtar," They talked for a bit, then Dox picked me up and they took me somewhere—I ended up falling asleep.
