stones of farspeech; during the eruption

[goat_mom]

Greetings. I am Toriel. I am with a man called Tim. We are in the Roaka village.

There has been a volcanic eruption, and we seem to have lost a fair amount of our number, especially children. We are looking for two children known as Chara and Frisk, as well as children named Ren and Chip... but there are others among us who are missing. We need to know how many there are. If you have located them or seen them recently, or if you are yourself lost and can hear this message, or if you know that someone you know is missing, please respond as soon as you are able.

Thank you.

Ren? I think I might have met her actually. [If she's that same girl who played in an ink gun fight with him when he first arrived.] I don't know the others though. I'll look and ask around though. When did you last see Frisk and Chara?

[goat_mom]

That is the problem. I have not seen them at all, not here. The last time I saw Frisk and Chara... was at home. Chara I have not seen for many, many years.

[Wait why would she look for them here if she last saw them back home? Unless they did arrive here, she found out about it and Tim saw them? That must be it.] All right. Then when did Tim last see them?

[Unfortunately, by the time she responds, Things Have Happened, namely Tim getting a few lungfuls of smoke and losing consciousness. She sounds out of breath when she speaks, from carrying him.]

I do not know that either. I did not ask, and I am afraid that Tim has lost consciousness.

Please, I know my information has not been a great aid to you... but if you do find the children, tell me.

[Zidane would make an answer in response to the "Tell me if you find the children" part but the first part has got his attention.]

What?! He's unconscious? Where are you guys?

[goat_mom]

[It's a little while before she responds again - no time to, not while she's in the middle of carrying him.]

Tim is at my home now. He is safe.
