INTRO LOG

Week Zero
32 in Competition

The transition from unconsciousness to the waking world is practically seamless. Though you're certain this wasn't where you meant to end up, for a few brief moments it's hard to grasp the situation and take in your surroundings.

A soft twilight lights your way, casting a glow over the sprawling village that fans out around you. Just outside of the large meeting hall you'll find yourself awakening among several others who have found themselves in this place. There's a sense of peace that looms over the area, the only sounds being the cheerful chirp of a stray bird or two and the babbling brook that runs through the village itself.

Stand up, dust yourself off and set out. There are plenty of places to explore and should you venture far enough you'll even find several little houses throughout the village. It may take some time, but as you check out each house you'll soon come across something that belongs to you...along with something that doesn't. It seems that this new residence is yours to share. As for the village itself, the other buildings appear open and well-stocked, providing you with a variety of amenities to utilize. The paths leading out of the village, however, are guarded by four ornate wooden gates. No matter how hard you try, they will not let you past. It seems that the time isn't right yet.

Speaking of, the only way to truly track the passage of time is by charting the movements of the sun but that can prove to be quite difficult as well. As the sun dips below the horizon and the night sky fills with stars, the bell at the shrine rings out to signal the end of your first day. No one else has arrived. It's only you and these strangers for now.

It seems as though you'll have plenty of time to get acquainted with your fellow companions. Make yourself comfortable; when the time is right, answers will appear.



Welcome to the soft intro of Subdivided! This is your intro mingle and the current conditions will last through the weekend until Monday, June 3rd at which point the weekly log will go up. Your characters will not know anything about the partner system, how powers work or any plot-relevant information until Monday. However, characters are free to discover their power through trial and error and will have access to their item from home immediately.

Please note that an additional top-level to introduce NPCs and Game Mechanics will go up on Sunday, 4 PM EST.

Not at first glance.

[ She shakes her head. ]

It could be hidden, but there could also be certain objectives we have to accomplish before the gates open.
fujino: (Did I say that?)

Objectives...? What makes you say that?

[Fujino looks at the other woman quizzically.]

It's how some locked locations worked where I'm from. This place won't likely operate on the same rules, but there was magic that usually kept someone from entering or exiting a place and you had to complete some sort of task to leave.

[ Very video game, but that's Four's life. ]
fujino: (never life)

[We dealing with magic now, huh? Fujino doesn't remark about the magic part (she's got no leg to stand on, she's supposed to have something that's basically ESP).]

That seems inconvenient. But it probably has its purpose to make sure things stay in.

[ What Four knows is what Four knows unfortunately, and that's a little fantasy magic. ]

It could be very inconvenient, and right now, it seems we're meant to stay in. If there is a key to the gates, it's likely with our captors. If it were lying around, someone would've found it already.
fujino: (Sadness imprisoning me)

[personal profile] fujino 2019-06-03 06:26 pm (UTC)(link)
You'd think that there we would be another building that might indicate where the captors are staying too...

It could be outside the gates. If it's not any of the ones in here, that's the only other option I can think of.

I wish there was a way we could see outside properly. Our view is very obscured with the walls and the gates blocking us.
