Maybe it's magic... That'd explain all the voices. So maybe if I--

[Flip, flip...]

Hey, can anyone hear me? I heard some voices coming from this journal, so I hope I'm doing this right.

[A beat.]

Anyway, my name's Ventus, and I've got a quick question. Could anyone tell me about this place? It looks like I'm in a forest, but I don't see any people around. Truth is, I'm kinda lost.

---

[Those in the forest are sure to find this derp wandering around in new feather garb. He stops every once in a while to look around, occasionally scratching his head.

It's odd. While he's used to world travel and even changes brought on by it to a degree, the fact that he showed up in this world without any of his belongings or the Star Shard. His clothes, his armor, and even the Star Shard just up and disappeared, which makes no sense.

So what's he doing? Well, given the way he's aimlessly making his way through the forest, he's either a) really lost, b) looking for something, or c) a combination of both!]

Man, I wonder what happened. Did somebody steal it?

[And what is this "it"? Should anyone encounter Ventus, he might just explain! For now, he'll continue on his way.]

[ooc: Don't forget to hit up my permissions post if you haven't already! The more specific you are, the better.]

No way! I couldn't kill somebody, even if he is a jerk.

But after we beat him, he got back up like nothing happened and left.

[Huh. So he's one of the noble ones, got it.]

Yeah, some of them do that. Probably a good thing the king saved you.

I agree, but I've gotten a lot stronger since then. If he tries to mess with my friends again, I'll be ready!

You've been training a lot lately?

A little, but mostly I've been fighting Unversed. So far they've shown up in every world I've visited, even Disney Town!

[Granted, not until he actually took the time to explore Disney Town, but they were there.]

[His first thought was trying to figure out what 'Disney Town' was, but that's not too important here.]

What are Unversed?

They're monsters. I don't know where they came from, but whenever they show up, there's trouble.

...are they like the Heartless?

Heartless? Lea mentioned those too. He said they're what happens when people lose their hearts.

But I've never heard of anything like them before. Even the Master never mentioned it, and he knows all about light and darkness!

...Axel. [He'll argue about the name later though.] Yeah, that's right. That's how they're created.

We've never heard of the Unversed either though, so maybe...maybe they're just in different worlds we've never been to.

Or maybe they don't exist yet. Lea said it's been thirteen years since I saw him in Radiant Garden.

So maybe... Maybe they don't exist until the future.

The Heartless might have taken over by then if it's been thirteen years. The Nobodies, too.

But what I don't get is why me and my friends haven't heard of 'em. They sound really dangerous.

...we've never heard of the Unversed though, so maybe that's why.

I guess that means we beat them!

[In the future, that is.]

But I saw one here already, so I'd be careful. It was just a Flood, but if there's one Unversed, then there's gotta be more where it came from.

...wait, what do you mean you saw one?! [Isn't that something he should know about?]

Just one, but I've got a feeling it's not the only one here.

If that's true, how come the rest of us never noticed?

I dunno. I just got here, after all.

But what I do know is that it came outta nowhere and attacked. That's how it usually is with Unversed; they could show up anywhere at any time.

Did it actually attack you though? Really?

Yeah, and I didn't even have my Keyblade. I managed to beat it up with a stick, but that was cutting it real close.

And Xion told me a stick wasn't ever effective. That's really weird. I didn't even know there were those kind of monsters here.

Maybe they just got here. I don't think they've been around for that long.

Maybe. I know there's been a Heartless running around for a few months now.
