The orange sun shone upon the small white houses of the City of Beginnings. The buildings are made of white bricks which reflecting an oozing state of yellow under the evening shade. The floors along with the city borders are also of a white color. Along the streets, a few marble statues can be noticed, with the shape of mythical creatures like Dragon, Phoenixes, or bizarre creatures that doesn't seem to originate from any fairy tales. The roof of the houses area mostly made of wood, which dulls down the luxury of the place. Some houses are empty, while some others are item & weapon shops occupied by NPCs. The center of the place have the tallest structure, a clocktower which shows the time in Roman Numerals, and rings when it hits 12 noon. Around it is a fountain with water of a clear crisp, as well as a few Koi fishes frockling in the water. The clouds blows a cooling, spring breeze as players spawns beside the clocktower. The city is located near the west edge of the floor, being surrounded by a large cresent-shaped field which encompasses a good amount of land of 1F. Further east is a forest, and then a cave by the walls, which is said to be the dungeon of the 1st Floor. There's a neighbouring village in front of the nearest path to the forest, which is a common stop for the players who want to venture to the forest, which consists of monsters of higher difficulty. Fate, on his four legs, moved towards the nervegear that was lying on the floor. Squeezing his head towards the nervegear, he found himself back into the world, beside the clocktower as usual. [i]As usual?...[/i] Fate looked at his hands, they were still animal paws. Staring towards the rough reflection of the water, he realized that his appearance had remained unchanged. [i]Wait... there should be an Avatar creation phase beforehand... Strange...[/i] Fate sat beside the fountain and sighed, the clocktower rang as Fate looked towards the evening sun which never rise or set, but only stays still on one spot. The players seemed to have more realistic features than the Beta testing. [i]Did that avatar feature get scrapped out or something?[/i] He decided not to attract any unwanted attention with his appearance, and strolled off towards the item store, buying a sword as well as a few potions with his starter money.
