[Wherever you were, whatever you were doing, you felt a sudden and strange pull. The next thing you know, a flash of light washes across your vision. When it clears, you find yourself next to the gate of a large, walled town nestled in between several high mountains. Behind you is a canyon, with a single bridge reaching across and connecting the town to the road of the other side. Looking up, you can see a sign above the gate. Passholdt.

The town itself is bustling with activity, people buying, selling, working, cleaning.... All the things that make up a normal day. Careful observation will reveal that both the architecture and clothing are old fashioned. Anyone with enough familiarity with history might place them in the late nineteenth century.

What do you do?]


{{OOC: Basically just tag away. I'll be keeping tabs on it, and whenever you reach something that requires my input (Like talking to townsfolk, exploring various areas in detail, etc.) I'll chime in. For the purposes of general roleplaying, feel free to assume that the town has all of the things a normal European town from the 1890's would have. The local specialty is fried creme. If there's any questions, hit me up on plurk at flutterpony. The plot here has several possible endings, depending on your choices. Enjoy~ }}

Hopefully Sarah's formal battle attire of bright crimson greatcoat and pants won't stand out too badly.

She can't really do anything about her massive, crossbow-shaped gun, of course. For now, at least, she'll just look around, trying to spot anyone she recognizes or at least someone as obviously out of place as she is.

[...What?]

[He was just munching on a fish taken from the local market when it felt like a hand had reached down and pulled him into a white light...and now he's in a place that is definitely not Hinoto-Ri.]

[He gulps the rest of the fish down, frowning at the gate and the canyon behind him. Passholdt, the sign says. The word is familiar...but he doesn't remember why, at the moment.]

Great. Not again. I hate these field trips...

[He'll be found around town, looking at the locals with a wary gaze as stands near one of the stalls selling clothes - he's murmuring to himself and very much sticking out, with his leather jacket and blue jeans.]

I wonder where everybody else is...don't they bring a lot of people on these things...?

[SO THE GANG IS ALL HERE. Sam recognizes Sarah, and assumes the woman with her is also from Hinoto-Ri, so it's safe to assume that they're all in the same predicament. Though there are far less than he expected...this doesn't bode well. He looks from girl to girl, with a confused expression, before speaking up with his timid voice:]

So...does anyone have any idea why we're here?

Outside at night

[M'gann is wandering the town in her human form trying not to look too scared. She is going to walk around the square and up and down a few side streets at first. She's staying in plain sight to draw out the spark.]
