SCENARIOS

01. Arrival

You have been sitting and staring at the sign above you for some time now, lost in a blur of swirling questions that seems to start with how you ended up there; in a place (and time, maybe) that you know you weren't an hour earlier. Or maybe you're an old hand at this by now and you've figured out that this is simply another stop that the multiverse bus has made. So why not get off and look around a little?

At any rate, the sign points you towards the direction of a place called "Gazin", which looks like a decent-sized town from where you stand. There has to be someone who can explain.

02. Around Town

So, you've settled in. Well, mostly. At least you know where things are without taking too many wrong turns and ending up in the less desirable areas of town. But now you can go about your day. Visit the market, check out the local shops or have a drink with a new friend at one of several inns.

03. Exploring

You've heard people talk about some pretty interesting places and now you're itching to get out and find them. Be careful though, there are creatures and monsters out there that will be pretty interested in meeting you and may wish to have you for its next meal. Better take someone along. And maybe some weapons, too. Make sure one is made of silver.

04. Monsters

So, you managed to find that location you were looking for. Good for you! Only.. it seems you've also found one of the native creatures to the area and you now face to face with it. Um. Good luck! We'll see you when you get back!

Hopefully.

05. Celebration

It won't take long for you to figure out that people of Gazin are, all in all, pretty happy people. It shows, too, when a seemingly quiet evening suddenly bursts into a random, impromptu party to celebrate whatever good fortune has touched a person. Name Days, good harvests, betrothals, weddings, or just life in general.

Sing, dance, drink and be happy, too!

06. Wild Card!

01. Arrival

After spending nearly a week within the same set of rooms, pouring through books and research records, he'd been quite ready to leave it behind. Yet, he hadn't expected to find himself in the middle of an unknown location that held nothing familiar about it within the horizon that he could see. There was a town, but it looked larger than the one he'd been in, so it likely wasn't Nibelheim.

The sight of the sign and the name it bore proved him correct in that and also gave him the name of the town. He'd yet to hear of any place called Gazin, which had to be a small mystery in its own right he thought as he headed in its direction. A town as decently sized as the one before him would surely have been found within ShinRa's records and thus on the maps. Perhaps it was, but by a different name?

Regardless, it was time for some recon before he allowed himself to ponder such puzzles. Just how he'd found himself out in the middle of an unknown wilderness outside of town, when just seconds prior he had been deep within a mansion inside the town of Nibelheim being the largest of those puzzles.

Maybe the citizens of Gazin could give him some clues to the matter.


02. Around Town

Well, it's been some time now since his arrival and while not all of his prior questions have gotten answers, he has learned some interesting things as he's settled into this new setting that fate seems to have thrown him into. Though one of his questions had been answered while also prompting a new mystery. His materia had proven themselves to be naught but colored stones recently, which told him he was somehow no longer on the planet of his birth with it's Lifestream. Not that the lack of their magic worried him any, he was proficient enough in combat without it even here.

A few fights with the local pests had proven that well enough, as well as giving him the currency he needed to keep himself in room and board. He'd situated his scabbard beneath his coat for the time being so as to keep prying eyes off Masamune. He didn't want anyone, thief or collector of arms, to get ideas about claiming it for themselves, even if that was a challenge they would fail at. It was the matter of the end result attracting the wrong sort of attention given that the thieves would no doubt end up dead at his hand if they didn't flee the moment they realized they were outmatched. He had no desire to have the authorities after him or watching him with such suspicion.

The curious person could easily find him at the market browsing the offered wares, or even in the tavern, leaning against the front wall not too far from the door either observing the crowd within with his green cat-like gaze, or with a drink in one gloved hand, those same cat-like eyes directed downward toward the liquid held by the mug.
