Ah, Somi is introduced XD I was wondering how you were going to explain how she talks, so the explanation of "she
won't talk" solved that pretty quickly
I also liked the way you gave an explanation for Somi being referred to as "she."
Looking forward to the next chapter - and looking ahead to when my characters as well as yours make their debut appearance at WARF XD I'm curious to see how you're going to write off the disappearance of a lot of the characters who just vanished during the course of the RPG, including my own three. I guess it doesn't matter so much when they had very little impact on the storyline of your main characters, but some of them HAVE had a lot of interacting with your main characters and then disappeared.
