What You Take With You part II: Reflections In The Fog

Who: All those on the What You Take With You mission and everyone else (who OOCly wishes to join in)
What: An important artifact is brought back only to immedaitely activate. Further details are here.
When: November 10th
Where: Daybreak Campus and around Soliel
Warning: Warn in headers as appropriate

On November 10th the recovery team sent into the Outlands makes their return with the obsidian mirror. Thus far it hasn't seemed any different than any other obsidian mirror, nothing spectacular about it beyond its age and where it came from. But Daybreak was only called to retrieve it, not anything more. The spell is worked to open the path between the Outlands and Daybreak, allowing them back. But as this happens, the mists rise up as they often do when the two worlds intersect. The team might even see it ghosting over the mirror before catching their own reflections in it. A light flashes over its surface and in that instant, the mirror activates.

Just one look in any reflective surface throughout Soliel-- a mirror, a window, a bit still water-- and people will be struck with sudden dizziness, a feeling of being knocked back, and then darkness. You'll find, on waking, a dark and desolate landscape full of smoke and fog. It'll be hard to tell where one is going. You won't be alone. People all over the academy have been brought into this vision. You may run into them, but even more likely, you'll run into the spots of color that cut through the fog.

And dwelling with this color? Why it's you. But better. Or maybe, much, much worse. It seems the mirror has something to show you. But is that something a promise? Or a threat...? Learn its lesson and you may escape both the shadowy realm and a terrible fate in your future. What image will you leave on the world?

The young man's eyes (all three of them) widen in surprise as he got a good look at Puella. "Hold on a sec," He raises a finger, surrounding himself with mist, his massive form compacting down to a far more reasonable height of five feet, six inches.

"There we go, that kind of show is more for kings and adventurers." He grins toothily as he laces his fingers behind his head. "As for where we are? Well I can tell you that we're definitely not on Earth."

That is way more better!! ...Still a bit tall, but everyone was really tall like that, compared to her.

"I am an adventurer!" Puella corrects. Maybe not exactly the kind of adventurer Sinbad was referring to, but she does like adventures. They were lots of fun!

"Oh...that's too bad."
