"Where am I?" the male mutters to himself, his voice rings an echo to it. He set his sights around his surroundings finding that he's somewhere in a thick dark oak forest that's quite cold even though he can't feel any temperature anymore. There were some foxes but they fled from him.

He sheepishly walks or rather slightly floats as he 'walks', towards a random direction while hoping to find something or someone. This is concerning...I should find the others.

The male continues going in the random direction, sometimes getting distracted by some flowers and picking them up as well as attempting to pet some animals again but failing, until he spots a black feline laying against a tree licking itself clean.

"Aww, hello there." he crouches down to pet the cat and causes it to flinch. It scrambles back onto its paws with its hair standing tall making itself twice as big, hissed, and ran off. I guess other animals aren't too fond of me. He thought sadly.

He felt his eyes were burning while trying to blink the pain away only for his cheeks to feel the similar burns and see steam clearly in his vision. He quietly whimpers as he rubs his eyes to get rid of the pain. Right, crying harms me.

Again, he proceeds to keep on traveling through the forest until he spots a village a long way from him. The man felt a rush of excitement overtaking him as he starts to sprint towards it. Yes! Some people interaction!!

He arrives at the village, seeing the villagers doing their everyday trades and jobs with one another. Each of their faces was gleaming with joy as if they have nothing to worry about. And he can see why, the structures in the village were very grand.

Scanning the area, his sight lands on a certain individual who has their back facing away from him. Their attire consists of a grayish-blue poncho attach to a long, blue cape from what he'd gathered. They seem to be collecting wheat from the villagers' ranch.

The man wanders towards them, curious about what their front looks like, and discovers that they possess 3 eyes with one of them turning to him quickly. He blinks, humming to that one eye's action which the person yelps from his sudden appearance over their shoulders, their arms quickly guarding themselves.

"Oh, i'm so sorry!" he quickly repents, "I-I'm Ghostbur." his lips curl to a smile, trying to be friendly and calming them down.

They froze in their spot, staring at Ghostbur which made him slightly uncomfortable as his shoulders tensed up. The person then reaches out their hand in the direction of the ghost's torso, resulting in their hand passing through him as if he's physically not there. Their eyes widen from what has occurred and return to a relaxed pose. "Sorry, I just needed that out of my system." their tone being awkward.

"It's ok." Ghostbur answers. "I honestly would've done the same thing if I was Alivebur." he chuckles.

They blinked in confusion. "Well, glad to see there are no hard feelings." They turn their heels, walking on a path that Ghostbur presumes to be leading to their house.

He trails behind them. "Do you have a name?" the ghost inquiry.

"Yes." They answered.

"Can you tell me?"

"...[Y/n]" the individual replies hesitantly.

"Hello [Y/n], I hope we can be friends." Ghostbur elated.

"Yeah?" [Y/n] seemed slightly surprised as they rotate their head slightly to him, eyeing Ghostbur perplexedly. They're so...familiar but why?
