  1. [3:15 PM] Flamy: THE YEAR IS 30XX... in the city of Maebashi in the island region of Japan, which is in no way, shape, or form related to the city of Mae, which is located in some island region or the other. However, their relation to each other isn't important right now. What is important, however, is that there are players playing the flamy-hot new MMO, Jiganshuku. One girl in particular be playin' this game, and... she gets a message from a "Destiny"!
  2.  
  3. > Greetings! I'm sure you're curious about the Labyrinths of this world you wander in, are you not?
  4. [3:18 PM] ChefMKT: > Who are you and why are you messaging me?
  5. [3:25 PM] Flamy: > My name is Destiny. I am... an Overseer, you could say.
  6. A black cat with red eyes and mechanized legs appears in front of the girl, with the name Destiny over their head, much like an NPC would. This is definitely a player-messaging thing they're talking through, though! What even is happening.
  7. > The Labyrinths contain beings known as youma, creatures that threaten the very world you are in. Normally, people can't harm them, but those with the potential can, and you're one of them!
  8. [3:38 PM] ChefMKT: "W-Whoa!" Kaede steps back, completely taken by surprise. "You know...if you were right there, you didn't need to message me."
  9. Kaede paues for a moment and notices the name over the cat's head which would indicate it's probably an NPC which was very odd. "I guess this is a new quest" she thought to herself.
  10. "I suppose I am curious about these Labyrinths, there certainly have been a lot of talk about them in the city."(edited)
  11. [3:50 PM] Flamy: What sort of advanced coding even went into this, though. It opts to simply look up to Kaede, and speaks back! "I see! In any case, in order to unlock this potential within you, a contract must be made between you and I." The cat's tail also flicks back and forth, though the action seems real... too real. "However, before you accept, I will warn you that the creatures in the Labyrinth may cause some... lasting pain. Pain that may actually harm you!"
  12. [3:55 PM] ChefMKT: "What kind of contract are we talking about here?" Kaede raises an eyebrow, and looks around her surroundings to see if there was anyone around possibly pulling a prank on her. "This seems very out of the ordinary, even for this game."
  13. [4:02 PM] Flamy: ... doesn't look like anyone's active around here. The cat... nods? "Indeed it is, and that is yet another matter: these Labyrinths are not natural, either. They are... an extension of a greater being, one that seeks to break out into the real world through this one, and cause ruination to all. With the potential, you can stop this from happening!"
  14. [4:08 PM] ChefMKT: "That sounds rather dramatic for a quest at my level, but sure why not." Kaede shrugs and thinks to herself, "This sounds like it's going to be an ongoing quest line, shouldn't be too hard to go through with my experience"(edited)
  15. [4:19 PM] Flamy: "Then, with that in mind, close your eyes, breathe, and relax!"
  16. Should Kaede do so, she would feel an aura emanating from Destiny... being absorbed by her? It wasn't raw power or anything of the sort, but rather... a feeling of self-attunement! Upon the energy ceasing to be taken in by her, she would be able to open her eyes again, to... well, reality. Virtual reality, mind you, it wasn't like she just disconnected or anything. The cat was still in front of her! "The contract... has been complete!"
  17. [4:25 PM] ChefMKT: Kaede slowly opens her eyes and looks down at herself, she couldn't shake off impression that there was something that feels different about this whole thing but she kept playing along for the time being. "So, what details do I need to be made aware of with this contract?"
  18. [4:34 PM] Flamy: Swish, swish. "I would request that you come to the Northern Area tomorrow at 3PM, where a Labyrinth is located. Expect others to be there. Any... questions?" Swish, swish.(edited)
  19. [4:40 PM] ChefMKT: "Wait, others?" Kaede pauses for a moment "A party quest?" before continuing her line of questioning, "Please tell me the other players are actually competent."(edited)
  20. [4:46 PM] Flamy: There's a disbelieving look on the cat, but it becomes a nod of understanding soon after. "Of course they will be. After all, to conquer the Labyrinth, teamwork is of the utmost necessity."
  21. [4:53 PM] ChefMKT: Getting on her knees, Kaede stares at the cat directly. It was at this point she finally pieced it together, the way this cat acted was certainly out of the ordinary and especially that last statement. "There is one more very important question that I'd like to ask, you're not an NPC of this game, are you?"
  22. [5:04 PM] Flamy: Swish, swish. "Indeed, I am not an NPC. As I have said before, I am an Overseer," Then what's with the weird digital screwery...?
  23. [5:11 PM] ChefMKT: Kaede stands back up, with a slight smirk on her face. "I thought this was just going to be a game that I'd play for a few weeks before dropping it, but now it seems things just got more interesting. I guess I'll go prepare for tomorrow then."(edited)
  24. [5:18 PM] Flamy: The smile is mirrored on Destiny's face, as well. Swish, swish. "I thank you for the choice you have made. Farewell, miss Kaede." Turning away from the girl, it began walking off, then disappeared from Kaede's sight.
  25. [5:21 PM] ChefMKT: After the cat was out of sight, Kaede begins to walk back to the main city, pondering to herself. Then it suddenly hit her. "Wait a minute! Does that mean everything that the cat said was true?!"
  26. [5:23 PM] Flamy: ***=========== T O B E C O N T I N U E D . . . ====>***
