[It was competition time, which meant a lot of extra practice for Maron and the rhythmic gymnastics team in her school. Extra hours of practice meant a perfected routine to perform in the upcoming tournament. It also meant a lot of stress for Maron, especially since she had sprained her ankle as Jeanne not long before. But still, she was dancing, jumping, twirling, and balancing as if nothing was wrong in practice.

In fact, that's what she was doing, when she found herself in Luceti: jumping, leaping, twirling, stop. But one of her jumps across the mat wound her in a different world entirely. Maron began the jump at one end of the mat, ribbon in hand, dancing on the air as she began...

And it would end in Luceti, with her still jumping. Into people. Were you one of them, up on cherry blossom hill that she jumped into by accident?]

[later on, after getting settled into the welcome center and reading through the guide, Maron fiddles with her journal, and then speaks to the citizens:]

So we're stuck here indefinitely because of some crazy scientists called the Malnosso, no ways out?

Well...it's more land and oceans and stuff like that. There's mountains, and forests, and deserts. And there are other enclosures like Luceti that we just found out about.

Woah, we're not the only ones here? They keep others like they do us?

[She thinks for a moment]

Are they like us? Has anyone here met them?

A couple of us have, when we went on missions for the Malnosso. They...seem to be worse off than people in Luceti, unfortunately. I wish we could help them somehow, someday.

They won't let us help them directly? They're just going to let them suffer?

...I guess. I mean, some of these villages have been around longer than Luceti, but we just found out about them now. The Malnosso didn't tell us about them at all.

[This is a terrible first topic of conversation.]

That's... I don't think I understand these Malnosso people at all. They aren't human.

[It is. But at least she'll know!]

Yeah, I don't get them either. They're supposed to be the ones working on a way to send everyone back home, but I don't get how any of this is supposed to help anyone. I wish they'd at least tell us what they were working on, so we'd know one way or another.

Or just tell the people something so they could help them. If they get a lot of people helping them in... whatever it is they're doing, they'd find a way.

Right? We should all be working together, not keeping important information from each other! Because there's a lot of smart people in Luceti, so if they knew everything the Malnosso knew, maybe they could help the Malnosso out.

There's probably a reason why they don't want our help that way. That's the only thing I can think of. Maybe they're hiding something? Or maybe they're really spies?

What would they be spies for, though?
