Arrival
The moment is a bit different for everyone. Perhaps you were just minding your own business somewhere, others may have been in more... dire circumstances. Regardless, you were approached by a figure you can't quite picture, and they offered you an accord; in exchange for aiding them in the healing of a world lost to chaos, you would be granted something almost unheard of. Godhood.
And each of you said yes, more or less.
A blurry hand, shifting and rippling, reaches out to you. You feel a glow of warmth, unlike anything you've known before. As soon as you think you can describe it, you wake up.
The room you're in is plainly furnished, but it's about the size of a small flat. Plenty of room to stretch your legs. Don't get too comfortable, however. On the bedside table each room has is a letter; handwritten, it's wrapped around a bronze key. The lettering could only be described as the platonic ideal of 'neat and precise'.
If you are reading this, than our deal has been made. You've awoken in a place that will surely feel strange, so I want you to take some time to acclimate. Meet with the others. Breathe. I shall be along shortly.

Whatever that means becomes more apparent as you step out of your housing and behold the world around you. The building you were in, and every piece of architecture you happen across, is blatantly pre-modern. Yet, something about it is otherworldly. Stone and iron and glass as far as the eye can see.
But above you was where the real questions were. It wouldn't be right to say the sun was shining on you now, nor would it be right to say it's the dead of night. Instead, the sky is a hazy mixture of both, wrapped in suffocating storm clouds that are threatening rain. Everywhere you look, into the horizon, it's the same.
Welcome home. Take your time and explore. Nobody ever said godhood was easy.

[Because it's a world at stake. But yeah, sure, Misane encourages to kind of twist this just enough for this gal to not be in trouble]
no subject
[Literally here. At the cliffs. Nowhere near her room.]
no subject
[They should have at least left you in your room, wow. Real rude, A]
no subject
...what about you?
no subject
[She's helpful!]

[Including some people around here, she has found! Misane is not alone in her helpfulness]
no subject
That makes me the odd one out, then... [A trace of wistfulness, or... regret? finds its way into Mutsumi's voice.]
no subject
[And to Misane, Mutsumi doesn't seem the crazy villain type or something]
no subject
The only reason I have to move forward is keeping Saki happy.
no subject
[This is the second time she thinks of Saki, after all]
no subject
...she's my best friend. [Judging how she says that, Mutsumi is SIGNIFICANTLY understating how much Saki means to her.]
no subject
[Some reassurance seems about right for the time being]
no subject
I just hope I don't miss too many practices... or performances. I've messed up on stage enough, she'd be so mad...
[Wilts further.]
no subject
[Probably. Truthfully, Misane isn't entirely sure that's how it works, but reassuring someone is nice]
