WEEK 6 EVENT






You find yourself awakening in an unfamiliar location. Even if you don't sleep - even if you weren't sleeping in the Void, or even if you weren't in the Void - you find yourself here now. Your head feels fuzzy and you struggle to remember. Where are you? What were you supposed to be doing? Who are you? The exact extent of this is up to you all, but regardless, waking up is a struggle.

Getting free is going to be even more of a struggle. You're suspended in a glass tube of some kind, bound at the ankles and wrists keeping you aloft by mechanical shackles. Those will break fairly easily even if you aren't the strongest; the glass tube will be the bigger problem. It's thick and not the easiest to break - although those of you with enough strength can shatter it, and if you remember how to use your shards, those could come in handy.

Speaking of, you still retain your shards on the backs of your hands where they should be. You can still make use of them even here... wherever "here" is.

It seems to be a laboratory of some sort; aside from the glass tubes housing all of you individually, there are several more filled with liquid and dark objects within... are they people? Regardless of what they are, they fill you with dread. You don't want to end up like them, do you?

The laboratory is dimly lit. You can only see a few feet in front of you, making it difficult to tell what else this place has to offer aside from your fellow shardbearers and those ominous tubes. Strangely, any attempts at creating light - whether that's through anything you have on your person or through use of your shard powers - will simply fail. You're stuck in the dark, it seems, and even if you were once capable of seeing in it, you aren't able to now.

Focus on getting free first, then let's see where this leads.

No, what the fuck was that-?

[...he might need a second.]

I--there was a laboratory, and...whose mind was that?

[Pressing a hand to his forehead, Viktor dragged it down his face with a whirring machine sigh that was equal parts relief and exhaustion. The headache was gone now, but the spike of panic was taking a little longer to fade.]

There was a computer screen, showing several of us our past failures. A voice that kept telling us to get out of their head. And just now, I saw...myself. Expelling us from wherever that was, with glowing red eyes.

[...what the hell does he make of any of that. um. okay.]

It wasn't my intention to send you into anyone else's mind. I wasn't able to find you all either, so I suppose that person must have driven you out somehow.
