This universe seemed to have an interesting quality to it, with the fact that it changed before his very eyes to become something new. This new scenery had a strange quality to it, the sounds of the beach washing over his sensors as he looked out across the waters. A feeling he defined as 'awe' made his purple visor change to a soft orange, helping him to convey the emotion his face would struggle with.
It was strangely peaceful here, but the nature of this place made him know better. He had heard the voice telling him that there were three others here, and his new purpose was to... to...
If he had gears in his head, the sound of them whirring would have paused for a second or two. He decided that his purpose here was to survive, perhaps at all costs. The others that were placed here with him from other dimensions would also be looking to survive above him. Sometimes he wished he could get into situations that were less harmful to his being as a whole.
But he had been sent here by the Queen to find out more of this place. He could never fail her, even if that meant... defending himself against potential threats. A sad sort of blue flashed before his eyes, the need for such a thing a grim prospect, even in his mechanically oriented mind.
The voice had mentioned a town here in 'Corala Cabana', which he suspected was just another name for this first illusion. This... game... would likely change when one of the competitors 'died'... and that apparently included himself. With this in mind, his new goal became to find the town in question, because the others would likely wish to find it as well.
He set off down the edge of the beach, as it was the most logical. He would find an end to it eventually, or at least some people who could point him in the right direction. The thought still lingered at the back of his mind that if he was unlucky, there was no other civilization except for him and the other competitors, which would mean inevitable conflict wherever he went. Something akin to a sigh escaped his lips, a strange thing for someone who had no means of breathing like a normal person.
Edward tried to dodge the birds as much as he could, as even though he looked human, he was still wary of those 'statue' rumors back home. When he heard the distant sound of crunching footsteps behind him, he almost turned on the spot right there to see if he could define the people involved. The thought of possible threat popped up again, so he stopped and made certain his arm-gun was functioning properly.
The footsteps got closer, so he turned his body back towards the water, to make it look like he was contemplating the way the waves came to wash over the edge of the sand. He would wait for them to come to him first, to see their intention.
