Quest COL-001: [ Chapter 1]
Pulling out her istyg absently without much to do, she clicks the button and it immediately comes alive with the sounds a very eccentric treat, Bramble can't help but watch as the announcer welcomes everyone, mentioning that it's the very first day of the Dusk Colosseum Tournaments! As the little thing rants on and on about action and bloodshed they can't seem to help but notice all the interesting other's that wander past just out of focus, oh, the night king! and the blue one from before... what was their name again?... hmm... as Bramble was about to trail off she heard them spout about signups, making her attention fall back onto the screen. hearing when and were they were held she sets off, making her way actually rather quickly with a silly grin across her face. "i wonder who all will be there" she thinks to herself and before long she's right at the gate, signing in and getting a band wrapped around her paw for identification. "which team?" a person they've never spoken to asks. Looking at the form it had two options, lunar day or solar night, and of course she picks Lunar Day.
The day goes on and Bramble is ready to leave.
The excitement of the whole day finally wearing off, bramble looks around her surroundings in confusion, she had gone the right way? "oww!" a faceless Stygian shouts as she bumps into them. "i'm sorry! I wasn't paying attention!" Bramble exclaims as the blur leaves seemingly angry and in a hurry. A bit upset with the situation bramble hangs her head, noticing something was dropped. she debates for a minute to read it but decides it might give a clue on how to give it back, however what she reads is just... weird? Ignoring what it says after all she places it in her pouch, perhaps hoping to run into the rude Stygian again.
Finally Going home.
Bramble returns to her little cottage that smells of sweet baked goods and flowers. Sighing gentle as she opens and walks through the entrance. While being sure to close and lock the door she doesn't do much else other than drag herself through the hall and plop into bed head first. "today was exhausting" she mumbles to herself as she curls up more towards her pillow and almost instantly passes out. Pretty soon she "awakes" to a red tinted room, full of glass panels and metals. This red seems to even be appearing through whatever was in that glass, she tried to go closer as her eyes try to adjust but she can't seem to. There was also some type of humming, something slow and guttural, unfamiliar. Everything is hazy and unfocused and as she tries to rub her eyes with her paws they just... don't seem to be there, or any part of her for that matter. "what is this place" she thinks to herself, finally starting to get a grip. Something is coming, even louder noises begin as whatever is outside the windows begins to thrash, seeming almost tied to their spot? Are they windows? She has no idea, but out of the corner of her eye she spots a dark figure coming closer. The closer they come the more the room begins to tilt, they seem panicked, almost running rather than walking and as they run to bramble her consciousness fades again. She wakes up, in her bed, completely alone and in the dark of night. feeling her own body, looking at her paws, checking to make sure she's still here and still real.
