Intro log: Welcome to The Resort!

INTRO LOG

Before you even open your eyes, you can tell something is not right. It's cold. Not quite unbearably so, but cold enough that you can take notice of it. And as soon as you open your eyes, you will be able to see why it's so cold: you're in the middle of a snowy forest, with only a single two-lane road cutting through the thick trees.

Unfortunately, you seem to be without transportation. Fortunately, you are wearing warm clothes and snow gear, so freezing isn't an immediate problem. But without transportation, you're in for a long walk ahead of you.

There are others around as well. Other people, just as lost and confused as you are. Everyone seems to be lacking any memory that might explain why everyone is here. As far as anyone knows, all of you were just ripped out of your previous lives and dumped here on this snowy road, wearing snow gear and having any items that are important to you already on hand. And for some of you, you even have a new power, one that you somehow instantly know how to use...

Two ways to go: forward and back. Despite having no indication of which way is the 'right' way, you feel drawn towards one direction in particular. Going 'back' is possible, but you get the feeling that you will be even more lost if you try. And given that you have no food or water on you, it's best to keep moving forward.

So, are you ready to walk? Because you have a long road ahead of you.



((Welcome to The Resort! Your characters will have any objects or animals with them that they should have given their canon point, but are dressed in cold weather clothing.

This prompt is just the first part of the intro log. New top-levels will go up over the course of the weekend as everyone progresses from 'where the hell am I?' to the resort proper, and to getting settled in. For now, just start with this prompt. We'll link further updates here for easy access.))

I'm actually fluent in English. Had to learn it for some online forums.

[ Nevertheless, she does take out her phone from her pocket and it's surprisingly not a flip phone (although the wallpaper in said picture isn't there, due to Early Canonpoint and her wallpaper is just a plain purple color) as she taps a few things to get to Google Maps and just quickly shows him a basic map of the world. ]

Okay, here we go. Does this work?

...I feel like there's actually a lot of other stuff I could ask you about, but one thing at a time.

[Because what the heck are forums...

...And what the heck is this cell phone? His ARCUS doesn't even have a screen, so he looks pretty impressed with it. He nods in response before checking the map, and there's a bit of disappointment there.]

It's pretty interesting, but none of the names or places look familiar at all. ...I guess this was a bust.

[dereban]

Well, I certainly don't mind answering depending on the question.

[ She does sigh with his answer, however, putting her phone back to sleep mode before pocketing it. ]

We really are heading straight into the parallel worlds theory now, aren't we...

[relentlesslyonwards]

Looks like it... which makes things even more confusing than ever. I probably should've figured when you started talking about 'online forums' and pulling up information on your phone like that, though. None of that sounds familiar at all, but you said it like it was an everyday thing for you.

[dereban]

Yeah, that makes it pretty obvious, doesn't it?
