You find yourself on top of a building. There's no goodies, no sign of even the echo themselves, but the rooftop is a tiny greenspace complete with flowering bushes, a tiny pond and a few cooing pigeons. It's an empty, miniature garden overlooking a busy city.

Below you, the streets are packed with cars jammed in stop-and-go traffic. People throng the sidewalks as they walk to and fro, talking on their cell phones, looking at their watches, hurrying to catch a bus or train. Adjacent to you are yet more buildings, some towering far into the sky and decked with giant tv screens mounted to their sides. Blaring lights and music and moving pictures pierce the quiet of the cool twilight sky.

Take a moment to appreciate the peaceful modern life around you.


[ Welcome to your mingle! It will last an hour.]

Clue?!

( because you've made many mistakes in your strange life, you find yourself standing in the courtyard of a lovely castle. thankfully, you've arrived in your finest formal wear with an invitation in hand. can't make it into the party without an invite after all!

the invitation reads:
"Dear X,

You've been cordially invited to Lady Rhode de Loveless's grand evening ball! She also wishes to extend her deepest apologies for her earlier actions towards you."


too bad you aren't getting inside just yet, two guards still block the doors. )
