Chapter Text
Arthur Aguefort is seen sitting in his desk looking at next year’s students, before hearing his office door opening in front of him. He watches this stranger enter his office and take a seat in front of his desk.
“Well, now who might you be?” Aguefort inquired, curious about this stranger who didn’t even knock. “The school here hasn’t started yet; you must be most keen to start learning. Or perhaps you’re here for something else.”
The stranger says nothing, instead they place a crystal upon his desk, stand up and vanish.
“How rude.” Aguefort said to himself. Lifting the crystal to take a closer look, Aguefort decides to cast Detect Magic upon the crystal, instantly the crystal lights up and cracks start to form across the crystal.
‘Well shi- ‘He is cut off before he can finish his thought, by a blinding light emitting from the crystal. When the light dies down Aguefort realises he is still in his office. ‘Well, that was anticlimactic.’ With a flick of his wrist, he throws the crystal into the bin, not realizing what he had activated.
In six different homes, six children disappear in a flash of light, leaving their parents stunned as their children disappear in front of them.

Six teens, all varying in sizes and species, find themselves waking up on the floor of a pristine theatre, but the strangest thing is that there is only six seats in the entire theatre. Shaking themselves out of the stunned state they were in, and realising where they were, let’s just say panic set in.
“WHAT THE FUCK?!” Could be heard above everyone else, five heads swivel round to stare at a tall, lean built half-elf wearing a, what could be recognized as an owlbears jacket. “WHERE THE FUCK AM I!? WHO ARE YOU PEOPLE!?” He continued to yell.
“We could ask you the same thing.” Comes from a tiefling, with a bass guitar on her back, causing the two half-elves to starts arguing. Standing off to the side, an female elf, a female human and a male half-orc are standing off to the side.
‘Deep breathes Adaine, deep breathes’ are the thought of a blonde high elf girl, in an attempt to ward off an incoming panic attack.
“You feeling okay?” is said by the human girl standing next to Adaine, her tye-dye shirt practically glowing in the dim colours of the theatre. The half-orc towering over the two and looking at Adaine with concern in his eyes. He holds up a metal flower towards Adaine.
“Do you want this flower to make you feel better?” Asked the half-orc. Adaine shakily reaches out with her hand holds the flower in an attempt to ground herself.
Off to the side, a small goblin is seen with a magnifying glass, attempting to find any trace of a way out.
“I don’t think there is a way-out guys.” All heads turn to look at the goblin. “Maybe it might be good to introduce ourselves first, I’ll go first.” He proceeds to reach into his bookcase and pull-out business cards with his name and the words private unlicensed detective. “My name is Riz Gukgak, and I live with my mom.”
“Hi, my name is Kristen Applebees and I was chosen by the corn god, Helio.” The human, now named Kristen introduces herself.
“My name is Fabian Aramais Seacaster, son of Bill Seacaster!” Comes from half-elf who had been yelling beforehand.
“I’m Fig.” The tiefling responds, lighting up a clove.
“Where did you get that?” Askes Adaine, seeing everyone turn to look at her she introduces herself, albeit with a shaky breath. “Oh um, I’m Adaine Abernant.” The five who had introduced themselves turned to look at the last one of them.
“I, uh, I’m Gorgug Thistlespring, and, uh, does anyone recognize where we are?” The half-orc asks the others.
Before the other could open their mouths the screen in front of them lights up with the words, ALL WILL BE ANSEWRED BUT FIRST PLEASE TAKE A SEAT. Without much else to do they all took a seat in the empty chairs.
(The seating is as follows; facing towards the seats, from left to right is-)
