All the avatars glitched and flickered. Still, Lelu and Psakya journeyed onward, seeking the Chosen Few. 'Did you post on the BBS?', questioned Lelu. 'What, and make people think I'm crazy?', replied Psakya,'if i said i was looking for a bunch of random players because of some weird email, no one would speak to me again'. 'I guess you have a point', said Lelu. At that moment, Aures ran up to the two. 'Hey!', she said,'we have to find this player, Dawn'. 'We are looking for certain players already...', replied Psakya. Aures shook her head. 'It seems that this Dawn has not been heard from since an encounter with a certain monster. And she had received one of the emails. What if other players start to go missing...' 'Dawn is probably just taking a break from here', replied Lelu,'after all it IS just a game'.
'Seen, I should like to show you something', spoke Adria,'I have a special place just for us. But you cannot tell anyone about it.' 'If you say so...',replied Seen. 'Good girl', spoke Adria,'now step into the portal'. At that moment, a beam of blackish light shot from the sky and spread across the ground, forming a portal. Seen, as well as Guardian, stepped inside the light.
'Welcome to Einbroch, Seen', spoke the alcolyte, Kirere. 'But... I thought this place was only for me and-', began Seen. Adria spoke,'Kirere is a friend, Seen. She is allowed here, too'. 'I see...', said Seen. She looked at her surroundings. It was a town like no other, completely run down, everything broken, corrupted. And Seen saw something floating, several meters in the sky. 'What is that?', asked Seen. 'Go and see', replied Adria. So, she did.
It was a female player, suspended in the air, her arms spread, crucifix-like. She was asleep... or so it seemed. 'What... is this?', asked Seen, astonished. 'A player', replied Adria,'who got in too deep for her own good. She wanted too much information. I had to put a stop to that'. '...Is she dead?', asked Seen. 'No', replied Adria,'only sleeping for now'.
In the real world, at this moment, a girl is sleeping. Sleeping so deeply that she cannot see, hear, or feel the outside.
