We all need a bit of backstory.
It was cold winter day in Strasbourg of France. A lovely couple sat in front of a warm fire with their child. Cynthia was the name they decided for her, it was the name of the Mother's grandmother that had died years ago. The family was all huddled around a fire, keeping warm. When the doorbell suddenly rang, it was strange considering that the mail services were out for the week/weekend, and no one was out on the streets.
The Mother, Cherell Foster got up to answer the door, while her Husband, Talehot Foster remained sitting in front of the fire with his lovely child in his hands. Cherell opened the door to be greeted by a man in rather fancy suit, it was mainly black with a red bow tie. He also had a top hat. "Hello, is there anything you need?" Cherell greeted him sweetly. "Ma'am, I need you and your family to come with me" The man's voice was quite formal, almost as if he were talking to the queen herself. "Why?" Cherell was quite the curious cat when it came to things like this. "You will be coming with me to your new home, under the sea"
This slightly surprised Cherell, she had only accepted the invitation a week ago, she didn't expect an escort to be here so soon. "Alright then, we'll just pack our things then" she smiled before walking back into the house. "Who was it?" Talehot asked. "You'll never believe it, it's the escort to Rapture, I'll pack our bags, could you help Cynthia pack hers?" Cherell excitedly explained. "Of course" with that, the family went around the house, packing their most valuable possessions. Cynthia was ecstatic, she knew where they were going and being the smartest 10 year old in her school, she did her best to think about how the city could possibly be real.
Eventually the family had their bags packed and left the house, following the man to a small, four seated car. The entire family excitedly jumped in, thinking about the wonderful future ahead.
The drive took around 10 hours, if not more, Cynthia fell asleep in her mother's arms when they were halfway there. When they reached Criee de Roscoff, the time was 9:45 PM being 11:10 AM when they left home. The man in the suit led them to a boat, Cherell carrying her daughter on the way. Once they had their belongings on the boat, they set sail for Rapture, the underwater city that were all going to be living in from now on.
They reached a lighthouse after an unknown amount of time, Cherell had to wake Cynthia so that she could help carry the bags. When they walked into the lighthouse they were greeted by a large, golden statue with the words "No gods or kings. Only man" written across it. They continued until they found a sphere with 'bathysphere' written on the back. "step into the bathysphere, please" the man asked, the family complied and walked into the bathysphere. The suited man pulled the lever, sending them down, into the ocean.
