ONE /// now that we're here, brought out our fears

[ SPLASH

What ensues is sputtering and however it sounds when a flailing arm connected to a flailing hand lashes out and sends the network device sliding off of the edge of the fountain and skidding a short way across the concrete ground ]

Damn it!

What...

Oz...!?

[ pause ]

What happened?

This doesn't feel the same.

What is this place?

The place is called "the City." As though there were only the one.

It's a different world entirely from wherever you were before, if you can believe that.

Nightmares. Just what I---

Thank you for the information. It's....very appreciated. Hopefully I can escape that last one.

How pointless. Do the powers here take amusement in that sort of thing?

Luck Gandor. I own a club on the eastern side of the City - Cassagioso.

Aside from the curses, being stuck here isn't very bad. I'm told that no time passes wherever we came from, and that we'll go back to the exact moment that we left. It seems hard to swallow, but apparently enough people have gone back and forth to confirm it.

If you need a place to stay, apartments aren't hard to get. You might want to think about finding a roommate, though. The ticking tends to grate on the nerves after a while.
