First Arcana: The Awakening
Characters: Yuko and whoever runs into her
Setting: Starting at 2-15, then exploring the first block.
Format: Action, unless you'd rather prose it up
Summary: Yuko wakes up in a strange place with no idea how she got here, because apparently it was her turn to do that this time.
Warnings: None to start, added as they come.
2-15/Dorm hallway
[This was some kind of mistake. Yuko couldn't just take some cut and pasted note essentially saying, hi, the world is gone, enjoy your stay, at face value. She wouldn't have slept through that, at least not in such a way that she would have, y'know, survived. Her first instinct, after crumpling the letter and tossing it aside, was to find answers.
The first place she opted to look? The halls of the dorm levels, checking all four for whatever information she could find, whether from her fellow captives or otherwise.]
Floor 3
[Beyond the dormitories, themselves lit about as well as a typical survival horror game, the power was dead, and light was at an absolute premium, so after the first floor, she had backtracked to the elevator, using the MP3 player Yosuke had given her as an impromptu flashlight. The presence of a library immediately caught her interest - if there was anything to be learned about this place, logic said she'd find it here. As she scans the backlight of the portable music player across the shelves, however, her hope visibly gives way to disappointment.]
Floor 6
[For every question that was left unanswered by the first five levels of the tower, several more were promptly raised by the sixth. There was no sign from the fourth floor windows that this was remotely possible, and Yuko could think of only one place that would so defy geometry, to say nothing of the fog outside... but even that was impossible. They'd purified that place, and this one, pun not intended, was wrong on far more levels. The least of those, perhaps, was how friendly the various woodland creatures appeared not to be. She'd give a token look around, but it seemed best not to linger.]
Floor 10
[It was like standing in the middle of the ocean. If she'd seen something like this anywhere else, she'd be in awe of its beauty. All sorts of marine life floated through the gravity-defying waters. Some, Yuko recognized, some was impossibly alien. For a little while, she pauses her search, simply to admire her surroundings. Wherever she was, this place fascinated her.]
