Intro Log.

[awashmods]

Ding, dong, bell, Pussy's in the well. Who put her in? Little Johnny Thin. Who pulled her out? Little Tommy Stout. What a naughty boy was that, To try to drown poor pussy cat, Who never did him any harm, But killed all the mice in the farmer's barn.

ou wake in knee-deep water, cold as ice and stagnant, in a space that is far too echoey and spacious. It feels like a massive cave, but looking up... there's only one small, circular opening that shows grey sky and shines any sort of light. It looks like a long trip upwards, a small cylinder with walls of brick that's just a little too high to reach, even when jumping. Getting out is probably going to be a bit of a task, especially considering the water is more than cold enough to make limbs go numb. The dark makes it impossible to see much further, but the space seems large, all filled with water, but with no other way out, stone walls the only thing for an intrepid explorer to find. But most importantly of all... you're not alone. Welcome to Awash's first intro log, everyone! Please review the FAQ and rules before playing. Characters have all woken at the bottom of the well in the middle of the town (which seems a lot bigger on the inside, somehow), and it looks like they'll have to put in some work to get out. Once out, they'll be free to explore the various locations the Town has to offer at will. Just try not to die on any of the far-too-rickety walkways. Further information can be found here at the OOC post, and don't forget to greet your fellow players here!

From home?

[ Her expression opens a little at that. ]

Where is "home", if you don't mind me asking?

[ Could it be a clue as to why they're there? ]

[glaciers]

[He gives a small nod in confirmation.]

It's Japan. I'm living at the dorms in Yuuei right now.

[Yuuei is such a big thing it would be weird if people didn't know it.]

[cestmagnifique]

[ Japan? All right, so that is something they have in common. Although, ]

I'm afraid I'm not familiar with that institution. What prefecture is it located in?

[glaciers]

Musutafu.

... You haven't heard of it before? It's the top hero school in Japan.

[cestmagnifique]

[ She shakes her heard. ]

I'm not familiar with that prefecture, either...how is that possible?

[glaciers]

[Now Shouto's thrown for a loop.]

How've you never heard of it? Where are you from?

[cestmagnifique]

Iwatodai, Tokyo, Japan.

[ She would be more confident in her response, however... ]

[glaciers]

[They're both from Japan. He should know this prefecture...]

I've never heard of Iwatodai.

[cestmagnifique]

...I see.

[ Well...this is troubling. ]

How is it that we remember two different versions of Japan?

[ ...How long was she really in the Abyss of Time? ]

What year is it?

[glaciers]

I'm... not sure.

I'm from 20XX. What about you?
