is this what we deserve, can we break free

Who: Everyone
What: The Darkness has taken the Denizens of Light. How will they retaliate, having reached their destination?
Where: Alexandria
When: Sunday, June 12

Koios stood silently looking out of the window of Jagannatha's former quarters. He watched as their enemies rose from the Darkness that had pulled them in, stealing them away from their safe havens and bringing them here, where perhaps all of their worst fears would come true.

Alexandria's sky had turned black. The only things illuminating the false world anymore were a scant few lamps and candles... and the Hearts of the Allies of Light themselves. One had appeared with a fortress of Light, destroying many of the homes around them as Darkness threw her out of its arms. He watched, morbidly fascinated, as one by one, they rose into their cage.

Chernabog glowered down at them from above. He was a fine choice for the role of sentinel, boasting nearly as much power as the First Darkness himself. Koios, as well as the Heartless and Nobodies swarming about below, were nothing short of a safety measure - not that Jagannatha found it particularly necessary. In truth, it was more of a courtesy for the Nobody, a chance to properly boast to the losers, should he wish to take it. But for now, he remained where he was, observing the scene unfold impassively.

If Koios knew anything about the Key Bearers and Refugees, they wouldn't give up simply because they'd been trapped here, in Darkness, with no way discernible way out. No. That would only empower them. But the question remained: what would be their next step?

In any case, he thought, it would definitely prove to be a good show.

OOC: If you were not on the list of exceptions, you are now in Alexandria. Anyone who has any way of sensing the Hearts of others will know that any people native to this world have no Hearts, just as the world itself is lacking one. And yet, not a one of them is a Nobody.

All methods of transportation will fail.

Mabry yawned. She had actually drifted asleep reading when the Darkness had come for her, though the sudden change in location had woken her. They book was still in her hands, as well as the overnight bag she had packed, and even the canes she had been using to get around.

Sitting on the ground, she calmly marked her page, and pulled her laptop from the bag. It turned on, but to her disappointment there was no connection at all, something that had never happened before, not since the Earth had first been destroyed. Curious.

Still, she was alive and that was something. And she had some supplies and that was something else.

She knew she had been among the last to be taken--perhaps some odd courtesy of Jagannatha?--and she expected the others must be nearby. So the thing to do was the find them.

She carefully returned the laptop to the bag, then using the canes hauled herself laboriously to her feet. Once she was standing, she stood for a couple minutes waiting to catch her breath.

This would be about where Fox and Ren would show up, intending to follow chaos and somehow finding the least chaotic thing either of them could think of.

"Hmm, not chaos, but not unwelcome either," Fox remarked, "Are you okay?"

"No kidding," Ren said quietly, taken aback at just how fragile Mabry seemed. She knew the healer hadn't been recovering well from Medrau's attack, but to get a fresh reminder of it was like a slap to the face. Was Mabry feeling as bad as she had back in Atlantica, when the Miasma was right at her feet?

"Do you need anything?" she offered lamely, hoping that Mabry really needed her to find Medrau, preemptively apologize to Song, and then punch the bitch in the jaw. Granted, it was highly unlikely, but it was a nice little fantasy.

Mabry smiled weakly. "I'm very glad to see the two of you. And I'm . . . I'm okay. Not as strong as I'd like, but I manage." She gestured with her two canes. "And I imagine the next thing is finding as many of the others as we can. So, do you want me to maintain a base camp of sorts and wait in one place while you look for others, or would it be best for us to all stick together?"

"It might be better if we stick together, at least until we find a few of the others," Fox replied. She looked around, somewhat amazed that they hadn't been attacked by anything yet. It was probably only a matter of time, though.

"Yeah, and I'd hate for us to get separated and lose each other," Ren added. She hated to admit it, but her sense of direction left much to be desired, especially when she was in an unfamiliar place.

"Will you be alright, walking around for a while?" she asked Mabry, not wanting to push her beyond her limits.

"I can walk for a bit," Mabry assured them. "Just not very fast, and I need to rest sometimes." She hesitated. "It's probably best if I come along anyway, in case someone is injured. I might not be able to work any magic now, but I do have mundane healing knowledge and some bandages."

"Okay. Let us know when you need to rest," Fox saie before turning to Ren, "What do you think? Back to the original plan of finding the chaos to see if it leads us to other Refugees?"

"And I brought potions and a basic first-aid kit," Ren added. "I think we'll be okay."

She nodded in response to Fox's suggestion. "Yeah, let's keep going. I'm actually a bit surprised we haven't heard any explosions yet, but the day is still young. I think." It was surprisingly difficult to tell what time it was supposed to be in this world.

"Alright," Mabry agreed and followed thevother two.

(Between no electricity at home and play rehearsals over the next few nights and my current general uselessness don't wait for me to post, just assume I'm following along--if I have something to add and the chance, I'll chime in.)

"Away we go then." Fox headed off, looking for signs of allies and keeping an eye out for trouble.

((OoC: Ok.))
