Okay, I've wanted to try this for awhile. A novelization of one of my favorite games, Persona. I played it for two weeks and I'm almost done. But anyway, I hope it's good for the people who'll read it. This is based on the true one, not like the other novelization here.

Ch. 1 Prologue: The Velvet Room

It was a foggy, dark evening as a limousine drove down a path to nowhere. It seemed like an ordinary car from the outside, but it would be a surprise to the people if they saw the inside.

It was a dark room with a blue light at the roof. A woman with white hair and a blue attendant uniform opened her eyes. A man sat on a small couch in the middle, with a table in front of him. He had both his fists on his chin, wore a suit, and had an abnormal long nose, you'd think he was Pinocchio.

He slowly opened his eyes. "Welcome to the Velvet Room."

He brought up his head and waved out his hand. "Ah... it seems we have a guest with an intriguing destiny." Then he chuckled. "My name is Igor... I am delighted to make your acquaintance."

He looked around. "This place exists between dream and reality, mind and matter. It is a room that only those who are bound by a 'contract' may enter. It may be that such a fate awaits you in the near future."

He paused. "Now then... why don't you introduce yourself?"

The silent person blinked, then replied, "Souji... Souji Seta."

"Hmm... I see." Igor muttered. "Now, let's take a look at your future, shall we?"

He took out a deck of cards and said, "Do you believe in fortune telling?" Then he laid them all in a face down position.

"Each reading is done with the same cards, yet the result is always different." He chucked. "Life itself follows the same principles, doesn't it?"

Igor flipped over a card. "Hm... the Tower in the upright position represents the immediate future. It seems a terrible catastrophe is imminent. The card indicating the future beyond that is... the Moon in the upright position."

He continued to explained. "This moon represents 'hesitation' and 'mystery'... very interesting indeed. It seems you will encounter a misfortune at your destination, and a great mystery will be imposed upon you."

"In the coming days, you will enter a contract of some sort, after which, you will return here. The coming year is a turning point in your destiny. If the mystery goes unsolved, your future may be lost forever. My duty is to provide assistance to our guests to ensure that does not happen.

He took the cards off the table, then blinked. "Ah! I have neglected to introduce my assistant to you." He referred to her with his hand. "This is Margaret. She is a resident of this place, like myself."

She turned her head to Souji. "My name is Margaret. I am here to accompany you on your journey."

Then the attention went back to Igor. "We shall attend to the details another time. Until then, farewell..."

So this is the prologue. If I continue this story, I'll add people's social links as well. Until then, please review.
