Welcome to the Lone Breaker System. The planet consists of a single ghost town that replenishes its stock daily, and a desert that does not. There are quite a few points of interest, no consequences, and a mystery to be investigated!

How did they run out?

[ Seriously how does that work? ]

Well, they'd finished already, so it wasn't running out so much as - using what was left. [she shrugs] I didn't ask for specifics, and now the story changes depending on who you ask.

[ Huh. ]

Do you need to dream-walk constantly?

No, only when I need to eat. And dreams keep me sustained for a while.

Though I do use the dream realm to travel back home.

Would you be willing to tell me more about it?

[ Perhaps he could extend his abilities further. ]

If you'd like me to, sure. It isn't as though it's a huge secret.

[she pulls a blouse from the racks, looking it over with an interested look]

Do you dream-walk? I'm not too familiar with Asgard's Gods, since it's completely outside of my territory.

[ Loki hesitates. ]

I have a few notable mental abilities.

[ A bit like Jean Grey. ]

[she notes the hesitation, faintly amused. She takes the blouse she picked out and sets it aside before turning to him completely]

Like what? Which one are you?

I am Loki. God of Mischief.

Hooh, I know who you are. It's a pleasure, Loki.

[she actually means it too. It's always nice to meet someone she recognizes, even if they may not be from her world]

[ He drawls. ]

Likewise, I'm sure.

Mmm. [and now, back to the clothes] If I may ask, why are you interested in dream-walking? Not many beings are, outside of those given that purpose.

[ A long pause. ]

I want to fortify my mental defenses. Against all attacks.

Hoooh. That's smart; not many realize how devastating an attack on one's dreamscape can be.

[she says it casually as she pulls out a jacket to inspect] I can tell you what I know, but technically speaking I can't teach anything. My power isn't that great.

But I share the realm with many, many other beings. You get to know them after a while.

Are any of them present here?

[ Loki is careful when it comes to mental space. Others don't realize it but the defenses are always there. ]

No. If they are here, they've hidden themselves well and have stayed out of our realm.

Then it is only you.

Mmm. I'd know otherwise.

Is that not lonely?

I'm the only one of my kind. I'm used to it.

Even so.

[she shrugs, setting the jacket onto her pile]

Sometimes. I don't spend a lot of time there. There isn't other beings wandering through like there's supposed to be.

Less lonely and more . . . mm, strange.

[ That makes sense. ]

It must be unnerving, a place like this.

Mmm. There aren't many people here - especially this stop.

I've never seen it so empty before.

Like a void.

[ His gaze drifts before he shakes himself out of it. ]
