A Curious Exchange
« on: November 13, 2021, 05:13:35 PM »
> You are a human.
> A human who is hopelessly lost.
> Well, maybe not hopelessly. There is a path you're on, leading to a village... But a... Floating orb of pitch black darkness guards it...
> The path behind doesn't look any better, also covered in darkness. Though less than the orb.
> Next to you stands a... Stand. Like an old market. Otherwise, its those two paths and the woods off the path...

> Who are we?
> How did we end up lost? What were we doing before?
> And what IS this place, if we can even tell?

> Your name is shrouded in fog. Well, shrouded in mist sounds better. Maybe it had something to do with mist?
> You were heading home for the night, you're sure. But this doesn't look like anywhere you've been before.
> It seems like a village. At least, youd call it such given the absence of taller buildings, cars, or even streets.

> The stand is in pristine condition, as if newly made. You don't see anyone present, though, at least from here.

> No friends or family come to mind.
> You check, noticing a gun in your possession, as well as a phone. No wallet or money, though...
> There appear to be no products in stock...
> Returning back up, there appears to be someone at the stand now. A maid? White hair, though...

> You believe you know how to use a gun. Surely how to fight if so, too.

> Yes.
> You try "maid".
> No dice. Still locked.

> What about toes? Of course you wash yours properly. You think? You don't feel like you wouldn't, so you believe you do.

> Not witch-like. Its round at the top, and the ribbon or bow may reach slightly above it?
