+1 fish warrior

[The Nexus has no shortage of bringing people in from random places and times, and today a small portal seems to open up a few feet away from the question area. Being dumped from said portal is an armor-wearing fish, presumably female, by the long red ponytail she sports. The fish-woman's body seems to be shimming, as if her very body is trying to disappear at any second. Finally, the shimmering aura dissipates, leaving the fish-woman barely alive on the Nexus floor.

She manages to look up, and is taken back by the scenery. This isn't the Underground, nor does she see any monsters around either. Struggling to stand, she musters up a few words to any nearby denizen of the Nexus.]

W-where am I? Is this what it's like to die? Alphys? Asgore? Anyone?

[She's still trying to fully comprehend the situation, but it's clear that she's gravely injured. Help might be something she needs, but isn't willing to ask for.]

[Undyne would most certainly fit the description of one of those hunters. Reckless and strong are two deadly combinations, after all, for the hunter and the hunted.]

"...I hate to admit that you're right. So many people's hopes and dreams are riding on me and damnit, if I can't fight, then what good am I to them?" [She limps herself over to a nearby chair, small drops of blood falling near her armored boots.] "How can a doll like you provide such spot on advice anyways? Do you have a human soul in you?"

[emboldsursicklyspirit]

Her head shakes demurely. "Nae, I am but a doll...but...what is it that you speak of, a soul?" Silly girl, souls don't exist! Her closest local church only is hype about blood and shooting yourself up with it.

Don't mind the little ones gawking wordlessly at you from at the Plain Doll's feet, Undyne. You're only the most interesting fish person they've seen so far.

[theundyingsoul]

"You don't know what a soul is?!?" [Undyne sits straight up and just stares blankly at the plain doll.] "It's the most important thing ever! People and monsters have souls in order to live! And in my world, we need 7 humans souls in order to break free from our imprisonment!"

[Thankfully, she's not looking at her feet either. No need for creepy paranormal stuff on the day where you nearly died, after all.]

[emboldsursicklyspirit]

Her head tilts inquisitively. Something so important and yet she had never heard of it before. "So....it is an organ of some sort?" she asks unsuredly, trying to put her more physical knowledge of bodies to work not knowing its a metaphysical organ at all.

The little ones aren't creepy! They're cute and sweet and staring at the fishie in rapturous awe!

[theundyingsoul]

"It's tangible...The appearance looks like a heart. Beyond that, I have no additional knowledge about souls. My job is just to collect them form humans."

[She's rather confused by the doll having no idea what a soul is.] "So, how long have you been in this place?"

[emboldsursicklyspirit]

A thing that looks like a human heart and yet wasn't? How strange. You're strange. Best to ignore it and move on.

"I am...unsure. The Night of the Hunt still malingers over Yharnam and yet it seems that the sun has risen and set far too often here..." she admits with a fair share of muted confusion.
