[Colias is examining the rather handsome pocket watch after being informed by a poster that it's not a watch at all, but something else altogether. How clever! He's never seen anything like it. A smile lights up his face. This warrants further investigation. It's enough to distract him from his current predicament, if only temporarily. If there's one thing he's interested in (though there are many), it's new products. He fiddles with the controls and makes an attempt to send a message.]
How fascinating! Am I to understand this is a communicator? If anyone is listening, I am Colias Palaeno, Cohdopia's Ambassador to the United States.
Are there any other Cohdopians here? [As their ambassador, he should help any fellow citizens, if they're here.] If there is anything I can do to assist you, please contact me at once.
[Oh, that's right, he's the one in trouble here. He should be in the embassy, not in a completely unfamiliar train station. Obviously, he has been kidnapped. He would say this could be an international incident if not for the utter strangeness of it.]
Thanks to the very helpful posters, I'm aware of where I am, but if I could trouble someone to provide me with further information? Thank you very much.
Third Person:
Yes, it was very clear to him now what Ruby City needed, the one thing it didn't have: tourism. How could he not have realized it sooner? It was a clear lack. Now, one might have said that since no one came to Ruby City except those who had been abducted and since there was no currency, there was little point in creating tourism, but such a person would simply be displaying an improper understanding of the concept of tourism. Tourism wasn't only for visitors from foreign climes, and it wasn't only about money. It was about goodwill, happiness, people enjoying themselves. What was wrong with that? In spite of the circumstances, feeling a little more at home and a little happier in Ruby City could only benefit everyone.
Colias had learned a great deal about tourism in his tireless efforts to promote first Babahl, and now Cohdopia. There were many things one needed, but there were three key components. First: attractions. Second: merchandise. Third: advertising for the first two components. With only the resources already in place, he already had the means to create all three. Yes, it would take work, but he was willing to work. It was for a good cause.
With that in mind, Colias was sitting down at his desk and had begun to write a list of ideas. So far, it read thus:
Attractions? Theatre (performances) Guided tours Souvenirs: model clock towers t-shirts (possibly humorous) brainstorm slogans toy monsters
He tapped his pen on the desk, reading over what he'd written. So far, it was a promising list, and he felt hopeful about it, but he was sure there was yet much to be added to it. He would need help, too, the ideas and industry of other people. There was a great deal to be done, but he had faith that with hard work, he would succeed. Someday, perhaps not too far in the future, Ruby City would have its own tourism board.
