Possible Scenarios 01. A New Arrival: Hello, New Person! You seem to have found yourself on a sidewalk in the City of Sin with nothing but the clothes on your back and a stomach chruning feeling of being displaced. Thankfully, the streets are full of people - Watch out that you don't get mugged! 02. Demonic Presences: You were just minding your own business, weren't you? But that's always when bad things seem to happen, and the City of Sin isn't really that friendly. Whatever bar or street you're hanging out in suddenly go dim, filing the area with an unnerving feeling as the shadows on the walls jump out into reality. We suggest you phone a friend for help, or maybe try running? 03. Party Hard: You've been invited to a massive, elegant party at the Tower that spills out it's doors in welcome, by someone who calls themselves the Emperor. Obviously that's weird, but maybe you can get some free drinks and food out of it! This place might not be so bad. 04. Prominence: The City of Sin influences it's population on a weekly basis. Too bad you came right smack dab in the middle of a heavy Prominence. Lust, Greed, Gluttony, Envy, Wrath, Sloth, or Pride. Choose your choice of sin and be wicked. 05. Trouble: Not everyone is sunshine and roses here. Some people are violent and cruel, raised in the sludge of a sinful city. And they like to pick on people they think can't fight back. Are you that person? Or are you the Hero who can't stand to watch? Worse yet, could you be the person doing the instigating? Villian. 06. Carnival: The City has carnivals or festivals now and then; you're lucky to catch one! With it's open booths filled with cork gun games and funnel cakes, how can someone not have any fun! Go win your darling a stuffed animal, or meet someone new on the spinning cup ride. You might even see someone you know being talked into sitting in the Dunk Tank. 07. Wild Card: Choose your own adventure in the game's setting!

Adam's never been to a place like this. He's never been dragged unceremoniously from his life and tossed into another one, and though the situation with Cabeswater was probably comparable, it still wasn't the same.With Cabeswater, at least he still had his friends next to him, going through it all alongside him.

He's pretty sure if his friends were here, they'd have said something by now.

Adam is, however, nothing if not a survivor, And though he's shaken - from the whole mess back home as much as this - he can see a girl in a torn dress not far from where he's standing with his shoes soaked and face and hair slightly damp from his attempts to repel whatever the hell had been attacking him. There's an element of skittishness he thinks he can see in her - or maybe it's his own mind, making him think so - but it makes him approach slowly and carefully.

"Hey. Are you okay?"

[theladyofwinterfell]

Sansa startles for a moment and once she realizes that his accent isn't one she recognizes, she nods jerkily. "I am fine, ser, I promise you. It's nothing. Nothing's wrong."

It's natural enough to hide who she is and what she is and she does that now, to the best of her ability but there's cracks in her facade. "I'm just lost, I think. I got turned around and I don't know where I am."

[parrishing]

"All right," he grants, giving her the benefit of the doubt. It's not like he really expects people to open up immediately, and especially not to people they don't know, in strange places like this. He just offers her a small smile, trying to be unassuming. He's got it down pat.

"You're not alone there," Adam replies after a second, glancing over his shoulder a little, sizing up the city around them. It's huge, the buildings consistently taller than most he's familiar with. "I don't recognise anything around here. And I like to think I'd be at least slightly aware of it if I walked this far from home."

[theladyofwinterfell]

Sansa cannot help but nod her agreement. "It's so far and so unfamiliar from anywhere I have ever been. Even the accents of the men and women here - I've never heard anything like them."

She peers at him, curious. "Where are you from, exactly?"

[parrishing]

At the very least, they're in the same boat here. That's a little reassuring to Adam, despite everything else. He's still not sure what he's going to do now that he's here, but that's a question for a little later. "It's all pretty new, you're right."

He glances over to her again, then decides he sees no harm in telling her. "Henrietta, Virginia. It's a pretty small town. What about you?" She sounds like she could be English, but he's not sure.

[theladyofwinterfell]

"I come from Winterfell," Sansa says, though his place of residence is not familiar to her at all. It's a little silly to think he'd know something as specific as Winterfell, isn't it? She gives him a little smile.

"It's in the North, in Westeros. Do you know it?"

[parrishing]

He nods a little, because it's polite; he hasn't heard of Winterfell or Westeros, but something tells him it's not the first time he'll be at a loss for where people are from. He's far from home in this case, and he knows it.

"No, sorry." His smile is equally small, but more apologetic. He has a feeling she could use someone who knew the place. "This place is probably a huge difference, isn't it?" It was for him, at least. This was just a stab in the dark that her home was too.
