TIAMAT

[When you come to, you find yourself locked in a small, cramped, antique elevator. One wall is covered with a large, ornate mirror, and a chandelier hangs above your head. The doors are made of metal and shut very, very tightly. The lights are off.]

[You hear two familiar voices echo distantly in your mind]

LET ME GO, Ǧ̲̖̩̞̣̲̌Ĩ͎R̞̩͎̝̍L̹̳̫̾͛Ȉ͙͈̬͐͒ͭ̄̌̊E̥̥̓ͨ!

I won't let you hurt them!

[Before you have time to say anything, the elevator suddenly jolts, before it begins to plummet. Your heart drops to the pit of your stomach as you fall, fall, fall, and then. . .]

[Suddenly it stops. You're thrown off balance, possibly to the point of where you crash into a wall or a nearby neighbor. All is silent]

Need a hand?

Yeah, sure. The more the better.

[LET THE BLIND MAN DO IT THIS WILL END WELL]

[..... bro.]

Okay, uh, this one sounds good.

[RAPS IT WITH HIS KNUCKLES, SOUND OFF.]

[great decisions being made]

Alright.

Which team is yours again? I don't think I've met any of you guys.

Henwen. And you're... Dawon?

[he met one of you]

Yeah, that's right. I'm Dandelion.

Jasper.

Nice to meet you, though the circumstances could be better.

You too. And I don't know, this seems to happen around here a lot, so it's pretty likely we'd end up meeting plenty of people in times like this.

So I'm noticing.

Is it common for teams to be paired up?

I don't know... this is only my second game.

[Ah]

So you're as new as I am.

It hasn't even been a week yet.

For me either. I hope it's not always this crazy.

[considering the other game he was in...]

Hope springs eternal, right?
