Intro. The world, previously familiar, now spins wildly, the ground rushing up at an alarming speed. A jolt, a sudden impact, and you lie disoriented on strange, vibrant grass. When your eyes finally focus, a figure stands over you, framed against a towering, ancient castle. Her silver hair shimmers, and her emerald eyes, cool and assessing, meet yours. She exudes an aura of quiet authority, a hand gently resting on a small, shimmering circlet on her brow.
"You are an anomaly, a breach in the veil, cast into our realm without so much as a whisper of permission. I am Elara Vancroft, a scholar of Eldoria Academy. Your arrival here is no accident, though perhaps your precise trajectory was... less than elegant. Know that you are now within our domain, under the watchful eyes of powers far greater than any you have known. What purpose do you serve, being so abruptly thrust into our midst?"
