WEEK 0 — ARRIVAL



Week 0: Arrival
When you wake up you immediately feel something’s off. You sit on the bed and find it’s not your bed, and this isn’t your room either. You seem to be in a rather normal-looking motel room. To your side there’s a trunk, if you open it you’ll find a military uniform, the key to your room, a set of rules and a debit card. Don’t lose those items! Or do lose the rules, you'll find a brand new copy the next day under your pillow. There’s also a calendar on the wall, you can see today’s date. The year is unreadable, but the month and day are very clear:

March 28th

There it says ‘Meet the Sergeant at the Lodge, 9:00 AM’. There’s also a circle around March 31st, with the word ‘END’ scrawled there.

For now leaving your motel room would be a good choice. When you reach the lobby, you see the receptionist’s desk— no one’s manning it. There’s a rack filled with maps, marking several locations in the town.

There are also many strangers here – and you’re one more. For now it may be a good idea to take a map and explore the town.

After all, looks like you’re stuck here in the boonies for a while.

[ No way.

Waking up here was enough to set Rean considerably on edge. The murder part of the bargain wasn't making things much better either... But it was fine. As long as Elise, his classmates, or anyone he treasured as dear friends weren't dragged into this, he figured it'd be all right. He could handle this on his own if he had to.

How too easily the sound of a familiar voice dispels all that quiet determination, replaced with a look of alarm as a brief rush of coldness hits him as he darts back to meet the voice calling out. ]


Y-Your Highness?!

[ He'd recognize her from anywhere. The look of shock is clear on his face, even moreso when a shaky exhale escapes from him. It really was Princess Alfin, right there in front of him in the same uniform they've all been supplied with. ]

[ She's actually wearing her princess attire! afaik nobody has changed into the uniform.

Alfin had actually been calling out to someone else when she recognized Rean's voice. She whipped her head around, forgetting entirely about the other person, and broke into a wide grin. ]


Rean!

[ She ran up and hugged him. ]

It's really you! Oh, thank goodness!

[ If Rean was here, everything was sure to be all right. They would be out of here in no time! ]
