A scream in the throng served as a signal for panic to settle in. Kyle remained stock still, only beginning to move once again after being shouldered by a trio of players who seemed keen to leave the square.Â<br/><br/>Kyle moved towards Kiriei, stowing his glaive away as he did so. "What now? D'you reckon that we can remove the helmets by-" He reached up, as though trying to reach the real world to rip the helmet off his head, "-pulling it off?"<br/><br/>"It won't work." Came a female voice, "The NerveGear helmet intercepts all brain signals until you have logged out."<br/><br/>Kyle turned to face the person, she was, judging by her equipment, a good twenty levels above him. "Who are you?"<br/><br/>Sensing slight hostility, she said, "My name is Lynda, I was a beta tester for this game. We all," She waved vaguely at the crowded square, "Would do better if we all work together against the game. What do you think?"<br/><br/>"If you are asking me to join with you in a party, then no-"<br/><br/>"No, I won't join you. I'm just offering my guidance for the prime dungeons and quests for you to become the best. What do you think?"
