In time, night fell, and with it, the assembled pieces slept. The lonely moon stood overhead, eyeless gaze staring down at the city below.

They were arranged in a circle. 

As the group of humans awoke, they would find themselves arranged in a circle relative to one another, splayed out on what they would recognize as the ground of one of Riversfield's northern parks, as though they had been sleeping there. With their gradual awakening from sleep, they would likely wrack their brains for justification as to how they were here, considering that their last memory was falling asleep on a standard night. 

Words drifted through their minds. Perhaps some would recognize these words, but for most they were nothing more than vaguely Hebrew-sounding words. Assiah. Yetzirah. Beriah. And with each word came knowledge, something implicit that they knew as though they'd known it all their life. Illogical abilities tied to each of these words, based around the nexus point of their existence that they'd always known in the backs of their minds. 

Shortly after this, they would realize that others were waking up near them. Then would be the realization that they were in a circle. Then would be the realization that there stood a lone figure in the circle's center, perfectly viewable. The figure was a mature woman, dressed in a manner one would expect of someone going out for Halloween night festivities, and yet her face betrayed no hint of this being some elaborate prank.

...then, one more realization would come. 

-The sky was red. A vibrant, beautiful, horrible red. 

[color=7ea7d8]"Allow me to congratulate you. For being partially aware of your existence's core desire, and for having a core desire strong enough to be made manifest, you have been chosen as participants of Naraka. Once you are all on your feet, I will explain what this arrangement has been made for. Do not be panicked, you are in no danger at the moment."[/color]
