WELCOME
Good morning.
Or perhaps it might be more appropriate to say good evening instead, considering how it is moonlight that will rouse you into consciousness. And what a bright moon it is, half-full and clear without contest in the sky as it outshines the stars and galaxies in the backdrop. But it’s all the better to emphasize that the buildings that speckle the landscape before you are all completely devoid of any light. And by the way—do you always sleep outside?
The lack of light can be something to deal with later though, at least when you've properly gotten up from the cold, unyielding stone below you. And that chill down your spine—no doubt that probably has something to do with combination of cool temperatures and poor sleeping conditions, but it’s odd how it seems to linger.
Checking your person for any items that should be in your possession yields disappointing results, but it seems you're not empty handed (or pocketed) because you are now the proud owner of one (1) small bundle of black cloth. Unwrapping it reveals a key imprinted with a roman numeral, along with a simple note.
“Come at 6PM to the place circled on this map:”
“Don’t be tardy, dear Survivors, that’d be a bad first impression. If you don’t want your stay here to be more unpleasant than it’ll already be, you’ll want to avoid seeming careless or disrespectful. You’ll want to listen to my opening speech~!”
Finally, after an empty space that may be simulating an intense pause, there’s one last line:
“I know what you’re thinking, so I’ll say it straight: if you don’t come, you’re as good as dead.”
The news likely isn't welcome, but it's a start. And it seems you're not alone in your plight, though whether company is within arm's length or a stone’s throw away is up to fortune’s whims. For now, you're free to explore the town square and the surrounding areas as best you can in the dim light.
For some reason or another, Krakow, Poland is now your new home. That much is clear from the sign posts that you can inexplicably read, as red and white flag posts with "Święto Niepodległości" flutter lightly in the wind. While the storefronts are dark, the street lamps that scatter the town provide some measure of light, providing some solace against the layer of fog that's begun to creep in.
( OOC: Welcome to Antumbra! This intro log occurs ICly Sunday. Your MM's will be around at 6pm EST to hear your complaints. )

Not the chatty sort, I take it.

[ she shouldn't even be here at all, honestly. none of them should be, but...details. ]
I'm here for answers.
no subject
[Just sayin'.]
There's a certain strength that comes from working together.
no subject
[ she rolls her eyes, but she starts walking towards the housing area, one hand on her hip. ]
Another pair of eyes could be useful. Just don't get in my way, and we're set.
no subject
[And he actually has a set of eyes to spare!
He follows after her, careful to give her some distance.]
no subject
but she enters the housing area, and not long after she steps in... ]
Assigned rooming. Great.
no subject
[Far, far away from everybody else?]
no subject
[ far away from everyone else sounds really nice though... but she looks at the layout, sees that she's not too far away from dist specifically...and lets out a sigh. ]
Lovely. I'm near one of the loudest people of the bunch.
no subject
[He hasn't met anyone who seems that loud, yet.]
Who's already found themselves on your bad side?
no subject
[ just :| ]
That's his name, if I'm not mistaken. You'll understand what I'm talking about when you meet him.
no subject
[He doesn't, but that's not new.]
I'll keep that in mind, when I meet him.
retconning all the dist stuff
Which room key did you get?
whoops.
[He holds up the key, raising an eyebrow.]
And you?
it's fine (?????)
[ there's a brief look of amusement. ]
Supposedly that makes us neighbors.
no subject
[And then they discover they're on opposite ends of the hall. RIP.]
But I suppose there are only so many of us.
no subject
[ she looks at her key, then back at ignis. ]
I'm going to check out the rooms.
no subject
I think I will as well. I'll...meet you back up later?
[Or she can just ditch him, that's fine too.]
no subject
[ look at that! she's not ditching him!!!! this is character development. ]
no subject
Of course.
[And he is off to investigate his room! Be back soon!]
investigation: housing
so. after ignis and raven walk off to their respective rooms -- why is ignis' room all the way on the opposite end oh my god -- both of them will investigate (with avery's permission!). is there anything unique to either of their rooms? ]
