Mosaic City, located along China's coast, is quite large city sometimes called the Crossroads Between Nations due to its diverse population. While it was once a large tourist spot, the city was placed under a blockade as the military appeared claiming there was a radiation leak. The true hazard, however, is much more sinister.

"I see. Well, it's good if his parents don't know yet. That's an entirely new can of worms being opened right there if it happened," Sakuya said matter-of-factly, crossing her legs. So far she considered Isolde to be a curious, intriguing individual. A peculiar specimen, so to speak. Beneath her demeanor lied someone who was... steadfast in her ideals. Someone who spoke similarly to Sakuya herself. "Anyway, am I... bothering you, or anything? You almost seem as if you feel there's something off about me." Sakuya asked, as she was getting the wriggling feeling inside that Isolde sensed something off about her. Well, her one-liner responses and not-so-talkative disposition at the moment kind of tipped Sakuya off a little.

What a weirdo. Most humans couldn't even detect it. Let alone declare it so bravely out in the open. No sense in hiding it now. Sakuya sighed and looked up at the sky. "Dark presence? What tipped that off to you?" she sighed. So what? Sakuya said plainly, her tone had changed, but it was hard to discern exactly how it changed. It's not like I've attempted to hurt you. I just wanted to strike conversation she continued. "People are free, but there are always consequences for the choices you make. Please don't make me feel like talking to you was a mistake. I'm sure you must be a nice kid." she sighed, now she wasn't looking at Isolde.

Sakuya sighed. "I see. I'm glad you see things that way. I'm relieved," Sakuya said. "There are people out there who dedicate their lives to eliminating Shadows. So I have to be on my guard constantly..." she continued. "If you can sense it, that means you must be one of them, too. People are trying to solve the mystery behind the perimeter, I am sure. They think all the Shadows are behind it. Pfft... I was inside the city when it happened. Sucks to be them." she started to complain. "They can deal with it. I don't need to be a part of it. There was no such thing around the city when I first arrived here." Sakuya groaned.

Sakuya tilted her head. Yes, Isolde was really peculiar. She outright declared that she wouldn't do anything bad back to Sakuya, nor would she let anyone else do the same. Peculiar, but interesting. She nodded, before sighing wistfully. Sakuya now, really wondered what was happening. Indeed, when she arrived as a Shadow, the blockade had not actually been erected. The illusory bounded field never existed. Yet here she was, stuck. "I don't really know. Maybe it was the doing of Shadows. But we can't really generalize. I wanted to live my life peacefully and freely, but with how things are going, I may find myself getting involved in this mess to start with." Sakuya sighed, looking up at the sky.

"I agree with that. The city has been hectic with the blockade and quarantine going on. I just want peace to come soon." she responded. And that remark where Shadows were actually behind it made it surprising. It was true that the opinions of those couldn't be generalized even if the Shadows were behind it or not. The military had been really strict lately as there was a barrier that surrounded the city. The last time she saw a barrier like that, it was where she had teamed up with a certain brown-haired boy with a sword. And yet, there was no way that they'll be able to escape unless the barrier could be lifted by some other force of nature or another Persona-user tries to break it. Either way, there were other Persona-users who were trying to break the barrier too. Perhaps, those people could help her fight against the enemy Shadows if they were willing to.

"You should watch your back," Sakuya sighed, fidgeting. You might not find Shadows as merciful as myself... Towards your kind. I may be merciless to the folly of man, but I know when to avoid a conflict. she had to refrain from hissing towards the end, which made the fact she harbored such a side of herself more evident. "Though, I'm sure you can take care of yourself. And you have bodyguards, too. Unlike me, I fight alone most of the time. It would also be bad if you ran into me in the battlefield. Let's try to avoid conflict as much as we can, ok?" Sakuya continued. It might turn out badly. I don't like hurting pretty faces like yourself, and I tend to flip out when provoked.

"It being too much bloodshed wasn't exactly the first thing that came to mind, but I can agree with you somewhat. You see, I feel like sometimes a little bloodshed is the best way for someone to calm their nerves down. Doing it wontonly is what's wrong," Sakuya sighed, fidgeting. She wondered for a moment there. She chased her desire for lust wontonly too, did that make her a hypocrite at the end of the day? Perhaps. Unfortunately, she was literally borne from it. She couldn't help it. It was simply an attempt at redemption. And even she couldn't always hold those urges in. "Yeah, we should be careful when we're out there. I feel like I should tell you something though. I can be, at times, quite ruthless to things that get in my way. Even lesser Shadows fear me, sometimes..."

"I suppose that would be a good way to blow off steam. Too much of it could be bad though." she responded. Maybe a little bloodshed would help calm someone's nerves, but not so much that they would end up killing someone. That would attract the attention of the cops here too. Besides, she didn't like to be in a conflict unless something makes her tick. There was not a whole lot of things that could make her angry, but it was there. And then, Sakuya had mentioned that she was quite ruthless to anything that got in her way including weaker Shadows. While the weaker ones were also scared of her, she had made no attempt to kill them unless if they tried to hurt her. Killing was wrong unless said person had intent to kill or harm her. She continued, "That being said, it looks like you're quite a fierce opponent for those weaker Shadows."

Isolde seemed to show some mild agreement with Sakuya's sentiment, but at the end of the day she didn't really seem to approve of it. Sakuya didn't really care about that. Avoiding violence was cool and all but sometimes it was necessary. She probably thought about the authorities and other things that looked down on the act of killing. It was a typical human thought to be reprehensible to the notion of taking another human being's life. Soon, Isolde mentioned that Sakuya seemed to be a fierce opponent for weaker Shadows, to which the hazy-eyed girl agreed. Yes, I can be a fierce opponent for anyone who stands in my way. That said, if you have any questions for me... I wouldn't mind answering them, to a certain degree.

Sakuya sighed. "What brought that up all of a sudden? Why do you care if I like girls?" Sakuya had answered the question by throwing a question of her own, which, if Isolde was smart enough (she seemd it anyway) she would get it. "...Well, okay, I guess you might be curious. It's fine. I'm not exactly very picky or anything. If they seem nice, I'll get to know them first. Sometimes, though, the girls may react badly or try to provoke me. In which case I can be a bit violent..." Sakuya admitted, her voice laced with regret. She looked down at the ground and twiddled with her fingers. "I try my best not to be too rough. But sometimes I can't help it. You know what I am saying? It's a difficult life."

"Well, it is a good thing that I wouldn't try to desist you because you approached me nicely. Most girls you met would've been unnerved by your presence alone." she responded. It seemed that girls tried to provoke her because she had seemed a little too attached to them. Those girls had a different view of Sakuya, but she disagreed with their view. Besides, the dark-haired woman was nice to her and didn't try to harm her at all. What was their problem anyway? Maybe it was the fact that they saw her as a monster. She did not see the woman as a monster as she behaved much like a human being. Although, there was something strange about her as she knew the woman's identity as a Shadow, but she had never saw her in another form. Maybe the woman didn't want to scare her away, so she kept her true form hidden. She asked, "Might I ask how old are you?"

Sakuya sighed. She kept her form hidden because it was necessary to do so. It would be disastrous to let things go in here. She wasn't stupid! Sakuya fidgeted a little though, ruminating on how this girl really did seem weird. "How old am I?" That was a bit of a curveball. Sakuya, the body, was sixteen. Sakuya the shadow, had been roaming the lands since the time of death for another seven years, so that would technically make her 23. But... "I'm sixteen." Sakuya simply said. She wasn't really lying, but she wasn't really telling the truth either. It was a weird thing to come to terms with. "Why do you ask all of a sudden?"

Sakuya noted that Isolde was eighteen. Fair enough. She wondered idly, what she was thinking. Probably strange things. Trying to be a mind-reader or something. To which Sakuya sighed and fidgeted, looking distantly up in the sky. Eventually, after a couple moments of awkward silence, Isolde had asked Sakuya how she knew about the outer circle. "Well, how do you think I knew? I went outside, of course." Sakuya refused to divulge any information on how she actually had a home on the outer circle. "I mean, I was inside when the lockdown happened, and there was nothing odd happening outside when I first moved here, so naturally I had to see what was up, right? Adventurer's blood, wanderlust, that kind of thing. Nah, I'm just kidding. Though I initially did want to see if travelling outside the city was possible. Which it isn't."

"I see. I have thought that you know a lot more about the outer circle than I do. I had never been outside the city walls before due to the barrier, but the barrier can be broken down soon towards the end of the crisis if everyone could work together." she responded. Looks like Sakuya just had to know what was going on during the blockade. It was just a natural feeling of curiosity, really. She came to know about the outer circle through other means, though it could've been just an adventurer's spirit that made her interested in the outer circle. Other Persona-users had their own reasons for knowing about the outer circle, but few had ever encountered Shadows with feelings like Sakuya. She thought that Shadows were just mindless beings who attack the living for their minds. Questions like these would get a normal answer like any other question would get. She asked, "Do you go to school, Sakuya?"

Sakuya eyed Isolde as she mentioned she figured Sakuya would know more about the outer circle than she did. Was she a mind-reader or some shit. Sakuya shrugged as Isolde spoke. She also continued to fidget. Eventually, after all that, Isolde asked if Sakuya went to school. "No, I don't go to school. Complicated stuff happened from my last school so when I moved here apparently they got a hold of my record and they didn't accept me," Sakuya shrugged. "It's not a problem, though, I find ways to survive on my own. It's better this way, anyway, I might go mad and berserk again if I went to school."
