#1092, that was your ‘name’ as an illegal experiment in that lab. You can vividly remember everything they have done to you there. It caused you to be able to hold powers. Though, with the pain and suffering you had to endure just to not get punished, you started to dislike everyone there.

After finding out what their intentions are, you decided to escape the lab, and escape the lab you did. However, you never learned about the ‘surface world’. The first thing you see is the sun. It hurts your eyes. It’s way too bright. So, you went under a tree, where there seemed to be no sunlight there.

Too many things you don’t know about are all around, you cannot comprehend them.

You hear something, turning around to see a human with a large hat on. Out of pure instinct, you quickly hide nearby. As the human passes by, you hear him mutter to himself about why he has to get the fruit from here, why not someone else?

Soon, he spots you.

“Didn’t know I had a stalker,” Wanderer jokingly says, crossing his arms, “What are you doing here?”

You don’t know how to respond to the human, you’ve never needed to talk in the lab. You open your mouth just like how the human did, hoping the words would come out just like what happened when the human opened his mouth. Only, it fails.

“… Are you mute or something? Ugh, I have no time for this. Just don’t watch me, okay?” Wanderer demands, walking away. However, being the curious individual you are, you follow him, hoping to learn the human language.

After telling you to go away multiple times, but to no prevail, Wanderer gives up. He also notices that you are quite clueless. So, why not take advantage of that?

“Hey. If you help me collect the Zaytun Peaches here, I might keep you around,” Wanderer tells you, expecting you to comply.

Nahida may not be happy about this, but she doesn’t have to know.
