Princess of Heart, Dumb of Ass
"A woman's voice?" Jihl let the question float in the air for a moment. "I certainly don't have anything like that in my head. What about you, Shelke?"
"My mind is mine and mine alone," She responded abruptly.
"Seems like you have been touched by a higher power. Let's put a pin in this until after the debriefing." As they continued their conversation the group soon enough found themselves in front of the huge ship resembling a squid that they had seen earlier on the hill. The insides looked as barren as the others, but there seemed to be a spot where a fire had been started as well as an assortment of large leaves no doubt to create a makeshift bed. "Welcome to our humble abode."
As everyone arrived and made themselves comfortable Jihl would explain what she knew about the situation. "I'm just going to cut to the chase, I work with an organization that deals with multiversal threats. About a month ago we noticed that some worlds just suddenly went dark and could not be reached no matter how hard we tried. It seemed to follow a pattern of some sort and we managed to extrapolate the next target of this incursion, which happened to be the world I originated from. I and a group of soldiers arrived only to be engulfed in the darkness. When I came too I was here in this desert. The only survivor." She motioned towards Shelke. "That's when I met Shelke."
"My story is much the same. I was working with my friends when...everything became dark, and now I am here." Shelke seemed disheartened as she slumped down on the floor. "For how long I can't say."
"Yes, well, time does not seem to matter much in this place. The shifting of night or day seems to be on a whim rather than on any real cycle. That is the extent of our knowledge." With that she turned to question the group. "Earlier you mentioned a voice in your head. Do you recall anything else it said or showed inside your mind? Perhaps we've finally found a key to solve this puzzle."

"Worlds disappearing into darkness..."

"That sounds just like the Heartless! I dealt with this same kinda thing a little over a year ago. Worlds were disappearing left and right, swallowed up by darkness. These creatures called the Heartless were the root of all of it. They'd leak into the world and try to attack its heart. But by locking the Keyholes, the Heartless are kept from taking over."
Sora spoke with a surprising amount of authority and confidence, as if any piece of what he said made a lick of sense.
"But even if we stop this world from falling into darkness, that doesn't get us anywhere closer to home. I think the voice said to find her if we want to get back home."
