Day 1

The first sign is maybe different for all of you – the hard ground underneath you, the lack of a body next to you, or no blanket to pull over your shoulders when you reach for it. Either way, when you open your eyes you know for certain you aren’t in the castle.

It’s a little too quiet here, except for the sounds of people around you moving about. There is a strange, unreal quality about everything, as if were viewed through the grimy patina of an old piece of film or photograph and half-realized blurs of images and words seems to hang suspended in the air like solid smoke – there but not quite there.

The group seems to be at the edge of a dead forest, the trees dark and twisted and the ground swirling with mist. A path seems to lead into the depths, but the sky that way is cast with dark umber and hanging shadows that don’t seem terribly inviting.

Not far off, however, is a long stone bridge stretching over a chasm of nothingness and leading to what looks like a city. Far beyond the rooftops, there is the briefest glimmer of dazzling light, gone almost as soon as you see it.

((OOC: WAIT FOR SECTIONS PLEASE! Aaaaaand GO!))

[Lilah stirs rather easily. Years at Wolfram and Hart has taught her not to be an easy sleeper, you never know who might be coming to stab you in the back.

But as she wakes up, she's quickly aware of not being in her apartment. She wasn't even dragged back to her Castle room, but someplace new.

She stands up, alert and worried. She's only wearing the nightgown she had fallen asleep in, but she's not going to worry about it for now with everything else going on.

I suppose we were overdue for one of the Castle's pranks.

[Caterina nods in Lilah's direction.] We were. Are you alright?
succubitch: (It's a lielah)

[She looks over herself briefly. No bruises or injuries. No signs of struggle. She's not sure if that's comforting or not. But she nods.] It would appear so.
ironlady: (common sense)

Small favors. [She looks around.] Does anything seem familiar to you?
succubitch: (Back to work)

[personal profile] succubitch 2012-06-07 05:28 am (UTC)(link)
[She shakes her head.] No. I've never seen any of this before.

It may be new then. No one seems to recognize this. [Which is another set of problems.]
succubitch: (Trying to keep up)

[personal profile] succubitch 2012-06-08 11:46 am (UTC)(link)
Well that's comforting. [Except it isn't.] Any clues to where this place is?
ironlady: (there's nothing we can do)

[personal profile] ironlady 2012-06-09 05:05 am (UTC)(link)
None so far. We'll have to give it some time.
succubitch: (Stoic)

[personal profile] succubitch 2012-06-09 09:26 am (UTC)(link)
So it would seem.
