Beginning

One moment you were elsewhere, surely speaking to your friends, fighting in a battle of your life, dying, or even in a state of non-existence in its entirety. It doesn't matter now, since when you open your eyes it’s become clear that not only is everything around you foreign and unfamiliar, so is everyone. And there seems to be a fair lot of you, at that.

It's easy to discern a few things upon a cursory glance, once you pick yourself up from the field of grass you're resting on. The place you've awoken in seems to be fairly tranquil, for the first few moments at least, and the view of a newly budded sakura tree is among the first that will greet you. In the distance, is a towering castle that manages to look all at once both imposing and welcoming at the same time. There's also an odd pendant around your neck, which you'll find won't come off despite your best attempts. In your pocket you'll find a room key, engraved with a number.

The weather is currently cool, with the sun brightly shining in the sky, though there are a few too many clouds to make it a completely clear day. While most of them appear rather normal, every so often you might spot one that looks just a bit off— like a storm cloud that's completely lost it's way. Lucky for you, it doesn't seem like you're going to have to worry about any inclement weather anytime soon, as they'll vanish from your vision as quickly as they came.

A large stone wall surrounds the entirety of the castle, though it's anyone guess why that is— maybe it's for your safety, maybe it's to keep you trapped, or maybe it's for another reason entirely. The only breach in the wall is a single gate that looks like it certainly led to the outside at one point, but that too has been cordoned off by solid stone.

Fortunately, there's nothing to stop you from entering the castle itself, where you'll find it's pretty grand all things considered. The lighting inside is provided not by electricity, but by magical flame that adjusts to the time of day or night. Actually, if you're looking for anything electronic anywhere, or even a simple power outlet, you'll be sorely out of luck.

For now, it might be best to explore and make some sense of where you are and why you're here— maybe one of your fellow travelers might know something? There are some plaques in the Great Hall that might catch your interest given their focus, in addition to one ridiculously large golden one that seems to bear rules.

Welcome, fellow warriors, to your very long stay.

You needn't have to! Your lack of confrontation and refusal to speak with me speaks more than your words!

[ and she's welcome to make assumptions all she wants thank you! ]

Did you ever consider the idea that maybe I didn't wanna speak with you because you looked like a nagging bitch?

[In all honesty that wasn't necessarily his first impression of her, but this is what he's revising it to...!]

[ wow rude?? ]

Well! I admit that, perhaps, I should not have tried to confront you after your initial protest but if that is what you truly believed from how I look then you are not worth mine nor anyone's time!
irrationalities: (♚ a breeze could push you over.)

Huh, so you can admit when you've done something wrong? That's a lot more than I gave you credit for.

[also totes not addressing the last half of that statement la la la]

And it seems that I had given you too much credit. Despite what you seem to have believe I do know where my faults are.

[ mostly. kinda. look she realized this one it's good enough ]
irrationalities: (♚ you're just a sore loser.)

[personal profile] irrationalities 2017-08-01 02:46 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah? Good for you.

[just gonna wave it off with one hand without even looking back at her...!]

If you realize your faults, how about you go about correcting them now?

[aka leave him alone!! he wants to check out this castle's entrance in peace!!]
