First Person:
I see. In summation, this world is known as "Luceti", an isolated place that draws in beings from multiple different worlds for a yet unknown purpose. The wings and markings are symbols of our imprisonment, and those responsible are known as the "Malnosso". A barrier surrounds this place that prevents either entry or exit, with the exception of the Malnosso itself. Finally, an antagonistic group known as the "Third Party" exist outside the barrier, against whom the residents of Luceti are occasionally required to fight against.
I cannot approve of this. To involve others in your personal struggle without their consent... no, even against their own wishes. Even were I not to have been abducted in this manner, I would oppose this with all my strength. Those who claim that they have no choice but to inflict suffering on others for a greater purpose are merely making excuses for their lack of faith in their own power. How despicable.
Third Person:
Milla strode through the village square, scanning her surroundings. In certain ways, this place reminded her of Ni Akeria, the village in which her cloister was based. The buildings may have been built with the bricks and mortar of man rather than the simplistic rural materials that she was used to, but the reflective calm, the brief whistles of wind carrying the smells of straw and grass, the people clad in robes of summer colours...
"No. Something is wrong."
She could sense it, lurking within the long shadows cast by the buildings. A falsehood that placed her well-honed instincts on high alert. The superficial wings attached to her back did not concern her, nor the markings at the base of her neck. They posed no immediate danger to her. But the haunted looks of those she met for the first time, the look that was quickly replaced with a practised smile of welcome... that gave her reason to keep her sword close to her side.
Scratching the surface of this illusion had revealed a few accepted facts about this new world: the mysterious beings known as Malnosso, the phenomenon called "Shifting", the frequent kidnappings by faceless automatons, and the sinister Third Party behind the barrier. Was the reason for her abduction somehow connected to all of this? Milla knew better than to lose herself in uncertainties. She would discover the truth in time, by her own hand. In the meantime, she would strengthen her body for that inevitable day. When the danger within the shadows chose to strike, they would be met with a keenly-sharpened blade of magic and swordplay.
Before her stood the so-called "Battle Dome", a place of illusions that tested mind and body alike. Without hesitation, Milla marched forward, the cavernous doors opening wide to welcome her. The first challenge awaited within.
Special Mod Request I'd like to request that Milla be allowed to keep a personal artefact: the "Key". It's a small metal disc that has no powers or use within Luceti, but would put her mind at ease about being in Luceti.
