Senua didn't exactly have a long-term goal in mind. She'd been living day-by-day, wandering around, seeing the world ever since her father died back in her hometown of Sorei. But that was quite a while ago, back in her normal days. She was anything but free now. The young lass found herself in Armistice, sitting in a dirty and dingy cell, surrounded by cells of other criminals and degenerates. While she had lost track of the date and time, Senua had not lost her sense of hope and spirit. The result of a job gone wrong, a case where she had been caught between the violent squabbles of two wealthy and influential merchants going against each other, and Senua eventually ending up as the scapegoat for the whole debacle. It seems that when enough money get thrown around, things got settled quickly, as the case closed with her unjust imprisonment. Money does apparently makes the world go around. Her salvation come one day, although she was not so sure if that was for the better.

[color=darkgray][i]Guards had came that morning, or was it night?[/i][/color] She had no way to tell for there were no windows anywhere in her cell. It was there that she was also told that she would be pardoned only on the condition if she takes up this particular quest the ICC has planned. Senua instantly agreed without hesitation, like a thirsty man at the sight of water. [color=darkgray][i]Her reasoning was that no matter how bad the quest was, it couldn't be bad as this dark and humid cell, could it?She had no idea what the ICC saw in her, but she wasn't going to look the gift horse in the mouth. Perhaps all the other previous successful jobs in town had come to fruition after all? Nah, it couldn't be.[/i][/color]

Following the guards out of the cell in the dungeons, Senua was brought to a clean, posh-looking room that her dirty and foul-smelling self was terribly out-of-place of. After waiting around for what must have been ten-fifteen minutes, trying her best not to stink up the air as much as she was doing already, she saw a well-dressed man enter with two fingers pinched on his nose. "My goodness, you stink up a horrible stench!" Senua replied rather sheepishly,[color=F4A460][i][b]"Yeah, that happens, when you're unjustly imprisonment without any bath for ages."[/b][/i][/color]

The man of whom she did not know the name of then went on to brief her more on what exactly was going on, and what she was required to do from now. Basically, she was to go onto this group which had been assembled by them,(the ICC) to find something about the secrets of magic immortality or some other hogwash. Once the quest has been completed, Senua would regain her freedom. With a quick clap of his hands, he summoned a pair of maids that seemed to come from nowhere to whisk her dirty self for a bath. Oh, the young lass relished the bath [i]indeed[/i]. The last time anyone had given her a bath, was a father when she was but still a wee child. And now, there[i] was two![/i]Senua seemed horribly out of place among the opulent and lavish decor and furniture, sitting in the porcelain bathtub that housed the blackened water she was in, as the maids frantically scrub the dirt off her skin and hair. Soon enough, they were done with bathing, and gestured towards a set of neatly washed and pressed clothes that sat next to something incredibly familiar. Still butt-naked, she ran forwards to the recognisable sight to see her armour and her beloved weapons, the only physical keepsakes she had left of her father. She thought them gone, lost for good when she was imprisoned. Reuniting with them felt like a part of her felt whole again.

When her reunion was complete, Senua got dressed quickly and left the room to find two Royal Knights and the same snobby man she had met earlier who informed her that she would be escorted to the city walls, near the gate where the group had been arranged to meet. She followed the trio as they moved and turned, and moved and turned, in the maze they were. Eventually, they broke into open sky, and she realised that it was day after all, and with a lovely sun to boot. Senua raised up a hand, shielding her eyes from the rays of the sun that the lass had not seen for god knows how long. Eventually, they arrived at their destination, as she saw a wide variety of people gathered around in the vicinity, even a rather giant looking guy clad from head-to-toe in plate armour. She also saw the snobby man talking to another of the ICC representative, with several gestures and glances pointed towards her directly. Senua caught the glances the pair gave towards her while they were talking. When the snobby guy was finished, he gave his colleague a firm handshake, before leaving the area entirely.
