"Hmm..." Alyssa stood there, eyes distant, her hand stoking her chin gently as she carefully contemplated Jules' deduction. "...You may be right. This would be a highly unusual location for any type of pet store, exotic or otherwise. That can only leave one explanation; that this place is some form of Dungeon.". She smiled brightly and nodded, obviously pleased with the logical conclusion they had arrived at. But soon her brows furrowed in contemplative thought once more, and her expression grew dark again. "Although... the remote location could add to its appeal to certain clientele... No, that's ridiculous. This can only be the lair of some dark power, holding this place in its evil grasp. And it must surely have a hold over ourselves as well, causing us to forget our pasts and our identities. That is why we must go deeper, to learn the secrets of this place if we are to have any hope of stopping this evil. Perhaps. Maybe." she nodded again "...Most likely.".<br/><br/>Alyssa's expression grew concerned. "And I am not pulling your leg right now. As you can see, we are standing several feet apart. Look, my hands are right here" she said, holding them up where he could see them, clearly not pulling his leg at all. Her eyes narrowed as she studied him carefully. Could he be going mad?
