Emilie paced the portal room, waiting. The attendant knew where she was going, they were just waiting for another Quester now. Her quest this time was simply to go to this world, find their contact and follow the new instructions. The world, she had gathered, was another earth parallel, of sorts, only there was something a little odd about this one. It appeared to be connected to a handful of others via strange windows in the fabric of the world. And that wasn't the only thing. Emilie had heard mention of creatures known as 'Daemons', which were apparently manifestations of one's soul, or something along those lines. The official's mind that she'd read hadn't been entirely clear on that point. Still, the idea fascinated her, and she hoped someone else would turn up soon.

Dusty wandered back through the halls of HQ, hoping he'd eventually get back to the Portal Room. There was a quest to an Earth variant that might have some interesting relics, so he was asked to accompany the group and acquire any of particular scientific or paranormal value.
Strangely, he'd been asked to be upfront that he was going with a secondary objective, which had never happened before. He couldn't have gained a reputation - his searches had only ever put one person in danger - himself. And even then, they usually ended up helping in the completion of the original objective anyway.
"Well, I don't want to find out what happens if I get on their badside." he thought to himself, as, after three hours of wandering, he finally found a sign for the portal room. "I'll just do what they ask, and see what happens."

Emilie was sitting in a corner of the portal room, eyes closed, feeling through the minds wandering the halls. She had done it before, and found it a little enjoyable. Now, however, she felt someone outside the door who seemed to be heading for the same world, though with an ulterior motive.

Dusty finally entered the portal room, and found a girl there waiting. She was pacing slightly.
"Sorry I'm late, I got lost..." Dusty started. He held out his hand and smiled "Dusty, Dusty McEnroe."

"Emilie Golding" Emilie smiled, shaking his hand. "You're on this quest with me, I take it?"

"I doubt I'm the only one, but I am coming with you, yes." Dusty said. He closed his eyes, and took a deep breath, before adding "I've been told to let you know that, while I am to help you with the quest, I will also be searching for rare artifacts alongside. There shouldn't be any conflict with your objective, but if there is, I have been told to assess the value of the object before making my decision on whether to prioritise the quest or the artifact."

"I know." Emilie smiled. "No, HQ didn't tell me. Yes, I can read your mind. No, I'm not doing it deliberately. Yes, I can implant a thought if I want to. Yes, I know that's manipulative. No, I don't do it unless I have to. Satisfied?"

"As long as you're not a pokemon in disguise, yes." Dusty said. "To be honest, I don't think I would have asked the last three answers...questions... arrgh, now my brain hurts."
He sat down, and pulled out a sketchbook. "Might as well do something to pass the time."

"Are there definitely others coming?" The attendant asked. "We've been here for quite some time." "When has Head Office ever told us how many of us were going on any particular quest?" Emilie asked, and the attendant sighed. "Good point."

"Look, I'll admit I'm assuming something." Dusty said, as he began to trace an outline on the page. "But unless there's a quest they want help on in my homeworld, they usually send two people on the quest. It just makes sense, given why I'm usually sent out."
