Chouji hates being the one to do political analysis, but fortunately Shikamaru has kept him well-briefed. It's easy enough to answer Leia's questions, and he does so matter-of-factly. "I believe about two hundred in this enclosure. The enclosures are maintained by a group called the Malnosso, but they claim that they aren't responsible for bringing us here, that it's a process caused by instability in the world itself. There are enemy forces outside the barrier they keep up around our enclosure, so it does serve a protective purpose as well as keeping us captive."

He pauses, realizing just how calmly she's taken the news. That wasn't what he expected, considering he'd been kicking himself for it as soon as the words made it out of his mouth. Clearly she's competent and handles stress well.

"I'm Chouji, by the way. I've been here for seven months, but there are people from my world who have been here as long as three years."
